Moiro Lyceaon

An Imperial diplomat representing the Council of Regents' attempt to reach out to the scattered remnants of the Empire. His mission is slower moving but far more heavily armed than the original missions made up of adventurers and lone military officers. He is accompanied by a force of twenty heavy Imperial cavalry, a small force of wilderness scouts, a wagon train, and two Finger agents (Fayyad Emiri and Dulcia Drane) who are operating without cover identities (counter to most established Finger protocols).

Lyceaon is an older man, but still quite fit. He is active and energetic, with a keen mind and a sharp wit. While extremely limited contact between caers limited the utility of diplomats during the Scourge, Lyceaon honed his negotiating skills as a merchant. He has been very successful in business, and hopes that his mission will allow him to expand on that success, while at the same time serving the interests of the Empire.

He encountered the assassin Crowley Crane at some point during his journey north from the capitol island, and took the halfling on as part of his entourage. Crane was instrumental in discovering that the Finger agent Emiri was feeding information to the Heroes of Anglesey during their negotiations leading up to the siege of the city by Gripash's Horde. Emiri was ultimately arrested for treason, but his fate after Lyceaon's mission left Anglesey is unknown.

Crane and Lyceaon clearly exercised great influence on each other, though it is uncertain who held the upper hand in the relationship. It may have been during this time that Crane was first exposed to the corruption of the Worm.
