•	Intellectual: Sorcery	
•	Element: Fire
Kaltus’ affinities mean he is strongest at; wizardry, necromancy and divination, with access to morphism and mesmerism. When younger he had a formidable reputation as a duelist and fighting man, but it has been some time since he actively fought.
He does have a reputation as the premier general of the Empire.
History:	It was the introduction of Kaltus and his indiscriminate tactics during the Noros rebellion (Y909) that is heralded as bringing the campaign to an end.
Prior to this, Korion was a senior Rondian general with a reputation as a tough disciplinarian won during border disputes with Argundy, and during the First Crusade.
When General Jaes Andevarion failed to subdue the Noros Revolt and was replaced, Korion was elevated, as a favourite of Lucia Sacrecour, who had newly been widowed, and placed her son on the throne as Emperor. Korion crushed the revolt through conservative "burnt earth" tactics and skulduggery, including cowing the Noros general Belonius Vult into surrendering at Lukhazan without battle.
Since then, Korion has won further glory in the Second Crusade, and confidently looks to further his reputation in the Third Crusade. He has been elevated to the Imperial Council and shares in the rule of the Empire, but some whisper that even this does not satisfy his ambitions.
Notes: He has little regard for his heir and only legitimate son.
