Messam Elmdore

Marquis Elmdor is the ruler of Limberry in Final Fantasy Tactics. He later merges with the Lucavi demon Zalera.

Abduction by the Death Corps
Elmdor is abducted by Death Corps captain Gustav Margueriff during a trip to Igros. His servant Algus Sadalfas escaped and was later rescued by Ramza Beoulve and Delita Hyral. Algus convinced the two to rescue the Marquis, despite orders from Ramza's brother Dycedarg to let him handle it. At the Sand Rat Cellar, Wiegraf Folles, leader of the Death Corps, killed Gustav since he had acted without orders from Wiegraf who opposed the Marquis' kidnapping. When Ramza and Algus arrived, Wiegraf traded Elmdor for his own escape.

Joining the Lucavi
When the Lion War broke out, Elmdor fought on the side of the Nanten. He was mortally wounded in battle, but because he was holding the Gemini Zodiac Stone, he did not die but instead became Zalera, one of the Lucavi demons. Now a part of the Lucavi plot, Elmdor was given two Ultima Demons disguised as human girls, Celia and Lede, for servants. Elmdor then joined his Lucavi allies, Wiegraf (now Velius) and Vormav Tingel who was really Hashmalum at Riovanes Castle.

On the roof of the castle, he came across Duke Barinten trying to force Ramza to hand over a Zodiac Stone right after Ramza had defeated Velius. Lede threw Barinten off the roof, and Elmdor and Celia quickly joined her to fight Ramza, who realized Elmdor's true nature, remembering that he was supposed to be dead. Despite the assassin girl's dangerous moves and Elmdor's own ability to use the Draw Out powers of Katanas, Ramza fended them off, and Elmdor retreated back to Limberry, telling Ramza to come as well.

Battle at Limberry Castle
As Ramza approached the castle, Celia and Lede attacked with the help of many monsters, but Ramza forced them to retreat back inside, where Elmdor was meeting with Vormav. The two girls warned them of Ramza's approach, and Elmdor told Vormav to take care of resurrecting Altima while he would deal with Ramza. Elmdor, Celia, and Lede confronted Ramza and his allies in a hallway. Elmdor proved to be a dangerous opponent, but Ramza's forces fought back, killing Celia and Lede. Elmdor rushed downstairs and summoned several undead to help him. As Ramza entered the room, he transformed into Zalera. Suddenly, Vormav's daughter Meliadoul also entered the room, and witnessing Elmdor's transformation realized the truth about her father. She joined Ramza in battle and they defeated and killed the demon, thus destroying Elmdor as well.
