Nikomedes Phorkys

Nikomedes Phorkys is a member of Magus Venator, one of the Five Chancellors and leader of the Intelligence Branch.

History
Nikomedes was once a high ranking Knight at Crocus, the capital of Fiore, who served the King. He once served happily side-by-side with mages, but then one day he was betrayed by a mage he had trusted. The betrayal ended with Nikomedes being dishonorably discharged from his position, completely discredited and disgraced and the mage was then awarded Nikomedes' former position.

Shortly after than he met Marcus Falconbrand and helped the man create Magus Venator. Since then he has been leading the Information Branch and gathering information to help the organization destroy all the mages and Magic Council of Fiore and eventually the rest of Earth-Land.
