Leprue Messe
Born: 694 SE
Bio: Leprue was the child of an upper-class family, and he was always given everything he wanted. He received education suitable for a rich gentleman, studying social graces, conversation, and fencing, with few intellectual pursuits. As he grew older, this left him dissatisfied, and he felt there was something else he needed, that his parents couldn't provide. He left his family at 16 to become a knight. Using his learned social skills, he developed his charisma, and soon was friends with everybody. He posessed a natural charm that endeared people to him, even if they had just met. At 20, his refined sword skills earned him the rank of Gold Knight, and his popularity got him elected to the Military Council.
In 716, Leprue met Calvin Darmani, and the two became great friends. As a token of their friendship, Calvin gave Leprue his sword, called the Masamune. Not long after, Leprue convinced Calvin to join the Knighthood. Leprue never stopped working to please the people around him, and he travelled to every branch of the knighthood, becoming friends with everybody. Everyone referred to him as 'the Man of the People'. When the Grand Council had an opening for Councilor to the Eldram, Leprue was selected for the position. In 755, when Calvin left on his quest, Leprue was elected as Lord Grand Councilor. He served his people in this way for 11 years, then passed the title on to Atheme, and resumed his former position. Although Leprue is 76 years old, an unknown magic from the Masamune keeps him looking like he's 35. |
