Hierarach Bilgore was the High Priest of Gorgo at the time of the Skyrr-Metalondrian War. He was Loogan's Great-great-great-great-great-grandfather. He hid the elder archives of Tai-tastigon in the crypts of the temple, initially for safe-keeping during the war, but kept them a secret afterward as well. He also made extensive doctrinal changes, partly in an attempt to hide the archives even better by re-defining his religion's precepts, and partly to get things more in accordance with his liking.
