Baron Virion Faro [m/Eladrin Elf] - Head of the Faro family of Seglock. The only remaining original inhabitants of this once heavily forested area. Owns a large share of the Sheridan Lumber company. Rich, flamboyant, and self-absorbed Baron Faro earned his wealth and clout by establishing a relationship with the founders of Seglock and involving himself in all of their major ventures.
He holds no political position or power, he was given his title of "Baron" early in the Seglock's establishing days to make him feel important and convince him to look the other way as the city began to take shape around his elven estate.
After Cheshire's Assault on Seglock, Baron Faro pulled any of his funding and patronage from Seglock University, as a result of Cheshire's connections with the school. To make matters worse, Faro believed that Cheshire (and Tiamat) attacked Seglock specficially because so many heroes of the realm had made it their home. He motioned to have the heroes, such as the Band of the Iron Hawk, evicted.
This put him directly into the crosshairs of The Protectors of the People, a vigilante group of people who set their sites on powerful individuals and the power they abused. This came to a head when the Protectors publically accused the Baron of his evilness during a city hall meeting. After the confrontation, one Harold took it upon himself to begin spreading rumors that the Baron was into unorthodox private activities in his house, and that Harold should instead be elected the new Baron. Despite it not being an elected position...?
One of his guards was Clarence Poleman, and his groundskeeper was a Firbolg named Kled.
