  • Leopolds Leopard Company are a famous band of Dogs of War mercenaries that had's its origins in the one of great city-states of Luccini. The Leopard Company takes its name from the legendary Leopard of Luccini, which is a badge and the mascot of the cities rulers. It is said that this Leopard was a guardian of the divine twins Lucan and Luccini, founders of the city from time long ago. According to legend, the twins became lost in the wilderness when they were still only children and took refuge within a cave carved inside a massive rocks, later to be the acropolis of the city. The cave was the lair of a leopard, but this was no ordinary leopard, she was a mystical creature with two heads and three tails! She has the mystical ability to speak prophecies from one of her heads and warnings from the other.[1a] The Leopard protected the twins just as if they were her own cubs for many years until shepherds finally found the infants. It was said that upon their entrance to the cave, there laid within the entrance piles of bone from varying groups of creatures that had tried to invade the Leopards home. According to the myth, the Leopard prophesied that Lucan and Luccina would found a great city on the rock and rule it as king and queen.[1a] Then the other head warned that the descendants of the twins would fight each other for the realm for all eternity. After having thusly spoken, the Leopard ventured deeper into the cave, and was never heard from again. The temple of Lucan and Luccina was built over the cave in which credulous people believed the leopard lives. The guardians of the temple, hired by the priest and paid for by pious donations from the merchants of the city, were called the Leopard Company because of their sworn duty to guard the acropolis as ferociously as the leopard these men proudly wear.[1a]
