Leka,[1] the Fire Warrior of Lesarkus, is a temple guardian encountered while exploring during the Temple of Ikov quest. He guards a door leading to Winelda the witch.
When a player attempts to open the door, he will appear and demand to know their identity. If the player chooses to identify themselves as a humble pilgrim, he will comment that no pilgrims have been to the temple for thousands of years, and will tell the player that the temple is closed. Otherwise, if the player instead states that they are a mighty hero, he will become enraged and attack. He uses fire-based magic attacks. If the player takes too long to kill him, he will simply disappear and the player will have to make him appear again.
He is intended to only be damageable by firing the ice arrows that are collected in the icy caverns within the temple. However, he can also be damaged by darts and throwing knives, provided that the ice arrows are equipped at the time. He can also be damaged with rings of recoil.
Once he has been defeated, he will no longer spawn and the door can be passed freely.

Trivia
- In the 25th Postbag from the Hedge, he reveals that Lesarkus is not a location, but rather a person.[2]
- Additionally, his usage of the word "Gielinorian" to refer to the writer of the letter implies that he himself is not from Gielinor. In RuneScape 3, this is indeed the case, as it's revealed he originates from Teragard, the home world of the humans.
