Hi - anyone having a go at this puzzle?

Need some help to get started!

1a - March to continue without backing of Greek: mysterious being (10)

9a - Old man stops pimp you confused for drug supplier (5,5)

12a - Legal principle helping, I'd recalled shielding all-powerful figure's murderer? Not I ! (5,9)

Not a single letter in all this to help - sorry!

9a opium poppy

Pimp you and pop - opium poppy?

Yes, sure this is right - thought of Pa or F for father but not 'pop' Thanks ab and Scorpiojo - At least I now have one answer

Ratio + deicide without i +n +Id recalled- ratio decidendi- legal principle?

March - demo with go on and Gr backed inside- demogorgon- mysterious being?

Well ab, I follow you on demogorgon (though i have never heard of the word) but am afraid I do not even understand the parsing at first sight for 12a !
I shall follow your advice nonetheless and thank you for help - very appreciated!!!
