Prince Naltos
"Prince" Naltos was born into a noble family on a prime world called Aebrynis. On that world, a blooded nobleman married a commoner, and she bore him a son. Later, the Prince was killed in battle against one of the many fiendish monsters of Aebrynis. The control of the land went to his widow, who then remarried. Her new husband, Naltos‚ father, was not blooded, and so control of the land was to go to Naltos‚ older half-brother. Naltos got no land of his own, and grew up hating his older brother. He resented the power the bloodline had given his brother, and felt that he himself was more deserving. He looked for ways to unseat his brother, as well as the rest of the nobility. His obsession eventually took him to the planes. He joined the Communals, hoping to use them in his battle against the upper classes.
He continues to see himself as the rightful ruler, and openly contends for leadership of the sect. The majority of the sect, however, follows Imesand's unofficial leadership, and rejects the idea of a single leader. Naltos has gained a few followers in his effort, however. He is believed to be behind the assassination attempts on Imesand, but so far no proof of this has been found. The conflict between the two has begun to divide the sect, as their motivations are obviously different. While Imesand seeks to bring prosperity to the poor, Naltos seeks to bring poverty to the aristocracy and power to himself.
