Captain of the Leopard Clan and Lord of Monitor, Lord Marsten first met the Avatar during the funeral for the Champion Knight, Astrid, who had been killed in a goblin raid led by the goblin king Pomdirgun. The Avatar had been brought to him to explain the appearance of his friend Iolo, who had been hit by lightning and teleported into the center of town. After listening to the Avatar's story, Lord Marsten insisted the Avatar take the Test of Knighthood in order to free his friend.
Later, the Avatar raided the goblin camp to recover the lost Helm of Courage. During that mission, he uncovered evidence showing that both Lord Marsten and Spektor were traitors and were responsible for Astrid's death. It was also later discovered that they were responsible for the death of Cantra's father, who accidentally discovered a hidden cache of explosives belonging to Lord Marsten that had been created by Standarr. Later, Marsten was killed by his former allies when the goblins overran the city of Monitor. |
