Geoffrey Leigh (Camarilla Archon)

Born in the 11 th-century Byzantine Empire, Geoffrey Leigh (then named Justinian) was a frontier noble and warrior who fought the Seljuk Turks. In one nocturnal battle, Leigh‘s garrison was killed, save for himself. Resigned to his imminent death, he fought on viciously and killed a score of Turks. His prowess attracted the attention of the Turkish leader, a powerful vampire warrior. The Cainite singled Justinianout and let the mortal lash out at him. When the Gangrel decided that Justinian was worthy, he Embraced the human and left him to fend for himself. Justinian survived and changed his name when the Byzantine Empire fell. He wandered Europe and Asia, where he eventually met Violetta and assumed his current position as Archon.
