Leon Olsen-Tanaka

Leon Olsen-Tanaka was one of the Tagavors of the Second Empire of Plagatéa, primarily ruling over the Eldham provinces of the Empire, before he was ousted in a military coup toward the end of the Empire.

On Eldham
Alongside compatriots, Leon founded a town in the South-western Eldham in the continent of Arsine. The town was found by the Plagatéan expedition, who forced the town to become part of the Eldham colony of the Empire of Plagatéa. The town expanded, and so did the Lordship, with the founding of the stronghold city of Orelia.

Refugees from C.O.G would build the Naho/Sakuran-style town of Morelia, which angered the nation of C.O.G; they would send mercenaries to harass the town as a result in what Leon would denounce as petty acts of aggression, acts that were resisted heroically by the townspeople and the Kardovian military. Following this, Leon would declare a crusade against C.O.G, leading the military in a march on C.O.G, which they were defeated in.

After Eli Akihiro departed from her position as the Eldham Magistrate for Plagatéa, Leon would succeed her as the magistrate and adopt the surname Tanaka. The population continued to grow rapidly, and new towns were founded in Presevo and Michinaru until the collapse of the First Empire of Plagatéa. The collapse would leave civilians inside Presevo stranded. The country would stagnate, with Leon especially feeling great loss with the death of the Tagavor Nero he idolised and the Empire he had worked tirelessly for. It was in this mindset he would plot the re-establishment of a potential Second Plagatéan Empire.
