Melmoth Leviarm

 is a character in Torment: Tides of Numenera.

Background
Your eyes are drawn to the tattered leather robes and the profusion of tubes that wire this man. He is lighter-skinned, with piercing eyes and a hideous, pitted scar on his face. He could be handsome, but centuries of neglect have ravaged his looks.

Melmoth Leviarm is the founder of the Dendra O'Hur and a castoff. His knowledge is lost to the cultists, since he disappeared and could not be devoured by them. He founded the Dendra O'Hur to preserve knowledge and ensure the passing of it to the next generation. Shunned for his appearance, Melmoth is nonetheless one of the foremost minds among the castoffs.

Of course, the shunning could be a result of them simply being... Uneasy about the prospect of Melmoth eating them.
