General Leonidas
One of Athens's most notorious military commanders. While he cultivates an image as a caring leader and loyal friend to those under his command, Leonidas is fundamentally a pragmatist willing to commit atrocities in pursuit of victory. He was previously confined to house arrest following a war crime conviction—he'd orchestrated the massacre of civilian villages and had his mech pilots dangle the corpses as psychological warfare, a tactic he clearly favors for its dual effect of terrorizing opponents and luring them into traps.
The Athens government recently pardoned him specifically to command their invasion of Krisna, betting that his ruthlessness would secure a quick victory and control of the kingdom's valuable quartz mines. Beyond his strategic brilliance, Leonidas is a formidable mech pilot himself. He's surrounded by five equally skilled pilots who serve as both his personal guard and battlefield commanders, acting as an extension of his will across the front lines.
