Targon

Targon is the main character in Legend: Hand of God.

Backstory
The following backstory is from the game manual.

Targon and his younger brother Halgan, who had grown to manhood during the war, rallied the scattered forces of the humans, elves and dwarves and united them to a mighty army. Step by step they forced back the demons, with each foot of ground gained paid for by the blood of the courageous.

In a daring maneuver, Targon and a handful of his stalwart followers battled their way to the portal and cast the demons back into the realm of shadows. Yet he was unable to seal the dark portal again. Targon rallied all his forces, and with the aid of elven mages and dwarven priests he lit the Holy Flame - a flame whose fire would scorch any demons coming near it and thus prevent them from ever setting foot in Aris again.

The price of victory was high, however, and the old peoples withdrew deep into their separate regions, weakened and in fear that the Shadow could return. But for a time, peace ruled, and the humans began to move into the depopulated regions and settle them anew.

For Targon, however, the war was not yet over. He instructed his faithful generals to establish the Order of the Holy Flame and build a monastery to guard the delicate flame, that it should burn for all times and never be extinguished. Targon himself entered the portal with a group of his finest warriors to destroy the lord of the demons once and for all and thus bring peace to the land and avenge his father.

His younger brother Halgan was to govern the land as his regent until his return. But Targon never returned. Decades have passed since the great war, and Prince Regent Halgan still sits on the throne and rules with an iron hand. Night has fallen over the monastery of the Order, and a procession makes its way towards the small mountain chapel above the monastery. Tonight, a young novice is to be ordained a Keeper of the Flame. Little does he know that the fate of Aris will soon rest on his shoulders.
