Leopold

A relatively young man encountered by Loud during his mission to Syngorn, where he was recruited to help retrieve the focus used to maintain the magical wards of the city, which had been stolen by Drow during their attack on the city.

He was first seen stalking a group of Drow, of which he had already dispatched a few. Loud quickly learned, that that was not the reason he was in the city. Hildian Sparrow had been researching a 10. level spell for some time, and had almost completed it's preparations, and Leopold was there to destroy it completely.

He revealed he was part of a group called the Apostates - an ancient order founded after the war between magic users and Gods - whos sole purpose is rooting out harmful divine and arcane influences to the material plane. Loud and his companions attempted to stop him, discovering that he was almost imperveous to magical effects. In the end they persuaded him to leave, allowing them to prove that the new magical spell would not be a risk to the material plane.
