Leo Tephi

Born in Moattown, Leo Tephi had a rough childhood which influenced his path towards crime from a young age. As he grew older, Leo decided that his life’s goal would be to achieve more power by whatever means necessary.

To this end he became a criminal, but was arrested and sent to jail in Treg’s Wharf. Before being sent to jail however, Leo called in a favor with the mayor of Gelethe and had his daughter Lily go live there, where she was to take power by any means necessary.

At some point Leo managed to not only escape from jail, but he also became the overseer of Treg’s Wharf. But his quest for power at any cost was not finished, so Leo Tephi decided to become one of the most powerful and feared creatures in the land: a vampire. To this end Leo acquired the three items necessary for the transformation and wore them night and day.

On his third year as overseer of Treg’s Wharf, Leo was summoned to the Gathering, as is usual. However this time instead of the recently late Lord Ivardia attending, his young and inexperienced daughter Rose would go in his place. And Leo Tephi was not one to miss a good opportunity at gaining yet more power because of a little thing like forcing his daughter into political assassination.

Trivia: Leo Tephi is a whole-character reference to Dio Brando, the first and arguably most-iconic main antagonist from the manga Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
