Barleos
this minor Lord was a member of House Melantha, and was known as a saber rake who was something of a protégé of Vaskel Savill. He was considered very effeminate by many other nobles, most of whom hated the fact that Barleos attracted more young ladies than they did. He was, however, very vain about his appearance, and hoped to use Savill's influence to help further his own career. Savill asked Barleos to gather a group of saber rakes in order to murder High Lord Bal Jaset on Procopia, but the action was halted by the intervention of a team of Alliance agents. The agents had been hired by House Cadriaan to discover what Savill was up to, and eventually led to the destruction of Savill's and Barleos' careers.
