A quick definition of leodes:

Term: LEODES

Definition: Leodes were people who served a lord or a king in medieval times. They were like employees who had to do tasks for their boss. If someone hurt or killed a leode, they had to pay money to the king, the lord, and the leode's family as punishment. This money was called wergild.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Leodes (lee-oh-deez) is a term from Law Latin that has historical significance. It has three meanings:

  1. A vassal
  2. Service to be provided to another
  3. Compensation to be paid by one who killed or seriously injured a vassal, divided among the sovereign, the vassal's lord, and the vassal's next of kin; WERGILD.

Examples:

  • A knight who served a lord was considered a leodes.
  • A leodes was required to provide military service to their lord.
  • If a leodes was killed or seriously injured, the person responsible would have to pay compensation to the sovereign, the vassal's lord, and the vassal's next of kin.

The examples illustrate the different meanings of the term leodes. The first example shows that a leodes was a vassal, which means they were a person who held land from a lord and owed them loyalty and military service. The second example shows that a leodes was required to provide service to their lord, which was a common obligation of vassals. The third example shows that a leodes had legal protection, and if they were harmed, the person responsible would have to pay compensation to different parties.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
