Leon Shore

Leon Shore was an NPC in the King's Field series that aided the heroes Alexander Thornton Regginis and Austin Lyle Forester. He was a half elf, and one of the last remaining descendants of the High Elves that lived on Melanat Island.

Role in series

Leon's profession was crafting magical items such as swords and keys. He possessed a knowledge only known to the High Elves and was one of very few artisans left in Verdite that could construct items with elvish magic. He lived most of his life on the Island of Melanat with his mother, Karen Shore, but after her death, and the events that unfolded in King's Field II, he moved back to the mainland of Verdite where he tended a small garden and kept a modest home in the village of Quist.

Leon's notable creations include tempering the elven Dark Crystal into the blade of the Dark Slayer, crafting the living light sword, Excellector and fusing together the pieces of the Ichrius Key which aided Austin in reaching Orladin at The Place of the Beginning. He was also capable of crafting idols in Seath's image that allowed the bearer to avoid death if they were wearing the magical artifact known as Seath's Tear.

It is implied that crafting the Ichrius Key required the last of Leon's energy, and as he was not a full blood high elf, he was not able to sustain the drain on his life force that he infused into the key thus ending his life, however his body or grave are never shown in King's Field III so there is no concrete proof either way.

Other appearances

Leon also made an appearance in King's Field: Dark Destiny outside his home near the eastern shore on Melanat. In that story he was able to realize the dark nature of Dias Bagil when he was approached to craft magical weapons and refused to lend aid to him during his quest.

Leon also was in posession of a unique painting of two warriors with their weapons crossed. This painting, captioned "The Dragon Warriors" is a nod at some of the history of the series leading to the war of the two dragon gods and their invasion on the Island of Melanat. This painting is used as the key to a symbolic puzzle in both King's Field II and King's Field: Dark Destiny.
