Azleff was the mighty leader of the Knights of the Grey Order captured during the second rising of the Malice of Orghuz. He worked as a blacksmith for the Fell Army due to his experience with weapon craft, choosing to use whatever position he had to infiltrate the evil ranks rather than to die needlessly. His position was made inescapable by the evil collar of control placed upon him by Orghuz. He choose to help the Heir of Tancred by cutting his bonds and killing a Goblin guard, knowing that to do so would mean the collar would kill him.
