Just a normal spy, more of a sleeper agent, who carries out his duties, waiting for the perfect time to strike, and who knows. maybe the previous leader was assassinated by a plot involving Ozpin to make this come true "Blake: "General Lagune was inexperienced, and made the mistake of trying to ambush the Faunus in their sleep. His massive army was outmatched, and the general was captured." (turns to Cardin) "Perhaps if he'd paid attention in class, he wouldn't have been remembered as such a failure.""  How I predict this going down is, Ozpin is close to the top of command in a non combat role, knows his side will over run the faunus in the next battle, so he finds a way to kill off everyone above him in the chain of command, take over and attacks at night so personally he is not comanding units and walking in to death traps, he just let them stumble into them. something like that, confused myself half way through
