Lefla Steele

The Flagoneers first met Lefla in Gretretka running ore for ComTek using a foldable boat (and various high-level magics) to traverse the Impassable Sea. Prior to the Flagoneers' interference, she collaborated with ComTek's evokers and a group of kuo-toa deserters who gained access to the city's heavily fortified inner harbour early in the siege: the evokers transported the ore from Gretretka to Iron Town (as well as providing additional security during the sea voyage), while the kuo-toa provided harbour security and information about the siege.

After being apprehended by the Flagoneers, Lefla revealed that she is one of Pyotr Steele's daughters, and that she is working for him against her will. Lefla is paying a debt with which her father saddled her at birth: she either generates sufficient value for ComTek or sacrifices her essence to a chippy, which drains her soul away to the Smith-Devils in the Nine Hells. Lefla is unclear about the details of the contract that her father signed with the Smith-Devils, but she knows that her recent decision to ally with the Flagoneers will trigger a third outcome, the default if she refuses the other options in the contract: the Smith-Devils take her soul by force.

Lefla was - or is - Xanfir's lover.
