Biography
The Guardian of the Celestials
Leo was born in a small village near the elven Capital, Talamer. Since he was a kid he felt a calling to protect those in need. So his parents decided to send him to the Citadel of the Celestials, the central house of prayer in Talamer, to train and hone his skills so that eventually he can become a paladin.
Lyris Moonweaver, the high priestess of the Citadel of Celestials, took Leo under her wing and taught him everything she knew about the power of the divine and the importance of empathy. Leo was a quick learner and by the time he grew up he became one of the most skilled paladins in the Citadel.
One day, a heavily guarded ship transporting the "Papyrus of the Eternals" to Irongard was attacked in the open sea by the flagship of the Orcs of Thal Badur, and the papyrus was stolen. The news shocked the Elven community as this was one of their most precious and powerful possessions. Lyris called for a council and as soon as possible the decision was made. An elite group of heroes should be tasked to retrieve the papyrus. The team should not be big as they would need to cross the desert lands of Cauldron undetected. Lyris selected the team Leo was a part of it. Their instructions were clear. Retrieve the Papyrus and come back alive.
After they disembarked in the Cauldron they started gathering information from Orcs. Either by the coin or by the sword. All the rumors about the Papyrus led to the orc village of Gronk's Hold, located in the south western Cauldron. A small yet very well guarded village that Orcs were using as a small port for their naval operations. They knew that the mission would be dangerous, but they were determined to complete it. When they arrived at Gronk's Hold and were immediately met with resistance. The Orcs were on high alert and had already prepared for battle.
The team fought very bravely, but it was Leo who excelled. As a paladin his skills were unmatchable in combat, it's what he was trained to do his whole life. He was able to defeat several Orc warriors with his sword, but many of his companions fell to the Orc blades. As the battle went on, everyone from his team perished, it quickly became apparent that even though he was no match for any opponent he would not be able to win the battle alone, he was surrounded and outmatched. That was when he called upon the power of the holy. He asked for divine intervention. Seconds later a bright light enveloped him and his sword, and he was able to defeat the remaining Orcs with ease.
The village was on fire and the fight was raging for hours. Leo knew that he needed to escape quickly before the Orcs regrouped. As he was making his escape, he encountered a young Orc slave girl named Zalara who was badly hurt and in chains. Despite his hurry, Leo took pity on Zalara and stopped to help her. He used his holy powers to heal her wounds and told her to run.
The gratitude Zalara felt towards Leo touched his heart, and he realized that the lesson Lyris had taught him about empathy was more important than ever. For the first time he understood that the Orcs were not his enemies, but were simply caught up in the same cycle of violence and hatred as the rest of the world. Leo decided that by showing empathy and compassion, he could break that cycle and do his part about bringing peace to Alandria.
On the way back to the boat that brought Leo and his team to Cauldron he was ambushed. The Orcs feeling humiliated by the battle on Gronk's Hold decided that they wouldn't let him escape. They didn't care that much for the Papyrus, instead they wanted revenge. Leo found himself in a fierce battle once again. The Orcs were no match for him, but they also knew that. Their plan was to distract him so that they could attack him from behind during the combat. Their plan failed however.
Zalara was following Leo secretly from a great distance hoping to find the courage to talk to him again and ask him to join him. Living her whole life as a slave she had nowhere to go. The most crucial moment of the battle Zalara acted fast. She grabbed a blade and killed the Orc that was going to attack Leo from behind. Leo felt something very strong at that moment. An Orc girl had just saved his life repaying the favor. Leo agreed to take her with him and be her protector to her new life.
With the papyrus in his possession and Zalara by his side, Leo returned to Talamer. When the elves saw his boat approaching the harbor they became ecstatic. The news traveled very fast throughout the town. They felt sorry for the fallen companions but they had reasons to celebrate. They quickly formed a parade leading him to the Citadel of the Celestials to deliver the "Papyrus of the Eternals" The same night they held a special ceremony hailing him as a hero and giving him the title "The guardian of the Celestials". Lyris was proud of him and told him that the greatest lesson she had taught him was not about the power of the divine, but about the power of empathy and compassion.
After the celebrations were over, Leo took it upon himself to train Zalara in the ways of combat. He wanted to make sure that she would never feel threatened ever again. He taught her what he was trained to do, and how to harness the power of the divine to heal the wounded and protect the innocent.
Zalara was learning quickly, and she soon became a skilled warrior. Leo's training and guidance helped her to overcome her fears and see that there was more to the world than just violence and hatred.
Despite her being an Orc, the Elves welcomed her into their city. They saw that she was very different from the other bloodthirsty warrior Orcs and recognized the positive changes that Leo's training had brought in her. They accepted her as one of their own and treated her with kindness and respect.
One day, as Leo and Zalara were training in the woods outside Celenis, they were ambushed by an elite team of Orcs. Leo was taken by surprise. They waited until he was unarmed and they surrounded him. He did his best but without his weapons he was no match for the Orcs. He was seriously injured and left for dead.
They had come to kidnap Zalara, as she was considered a traitor for having left Gronk's Hold and helping Leo. They wanted to punish her by taking her back to Thal Badur as a prisoner and they succeeded. Zalara was thrown into a cage to await her trial.
Leo was found very quickly and he was healed but the orcs had already escaped. He had to act quickly to save Zalara, so he set out to find Danysa, the notorious elven warrior that had gained the respect of the orcs and was known as the herald of Kramatak, the god that every orc feared and honored. She was known for her knowledge of orcish culture and customs.
When Leo found her, he told her about Zalara's situation and asked for her help. Danysa listened to Leo's story and told him that there was not much she could do except to provide information. She explained that the orcs took treason very seriously and that there was no way to simply rescue Zalara. Thal Badur was a fortress that even if it was besieged by the whole Elven army it would be unlikely to fall. The only way to save her would be to do something that would earn the respect of the orcs so that they would grant him his wish of releasing Zalara who was nothing more than a slave to them.
Leo was determined to do whatever it takes to save her. So, he traveled to Thal Badur to meet the orc king, Gorlok Ironfist. Once the meeting was set he asked him to release Zalara. The orc king was unyielding, however. He told Leo that Zalara had violated the orcish law with her treason and that there was no way he would release her. The only way to save her, the king said, would be to challenge the champion of Kramatak, an ethereal warrior of great might. If he was victorious Kramatak would grant him his wish as the law of god is bigger than the laws of humans.
Leo did not hesitate for an instant. He accepted the challenge without blinking, knowing that the fate of Zalara was in his hands. He set out to train harder than ever before, honing his skills as a paladin and seeking the guidance of the divine. The day of the challenge arrived, and Leo stood before the champion of Kramatak, in front of the Great Iron Drum, ready to fight. The battle was intense, and both warriors were evenly matched. Leo's paladin skills were put to the test, but he fought with all his might, determined to save Zalara.
In the end, Leo emerged victorious, his sword shining with the power of the divine sliced through the conjured body of the champion of Kramatat. Gorlok was impressed by Leo's bravery and released Zalara honoring his wish.
Leo took Zalara and returned to Celenis as a hero once more, hailed by the elves for his bravery and compassion. Lyris was proud of him and told him that he had truly mastered the power of empathy and the divine.'
