Lionheart was one of Ozpin's associates, but at some point he betrayed Ozpin and sided with Salem for an unknown amount of time, working as a spy.

V5 01 00015

Lionheart is startled by Qrow's sudden arrival.

Several months after the Fall of Beacon Academy, Arthur Watts visited him in Mistral on behalf of Salem. On a later day, Lionheart received word from Qrow Branwen that he would be coming to Haven with a few students from Beacon. When he met them, he was shocked to hear that Team RNJR already learned about the Maidens and Relics from Qrow. Inside his office, Lionheart explained what happened to Haven. According to him, shortly after the Fall of Beacon, the Grimm attacked the city of Mistral, prompting the teachers of Haven to fight off the monsters. Lionheart gave them all leave, causing a complete desertion of the school. When Qrow revealed the Spring Maiden was with his sister Raven, Lionheart copied the coordinates of the location of the bandit tribe from Qrow's Scroll and insisted he needed time to convince the city council he needed Huntsmen for the search. After Qrow and Team RNJR left, Watts contacted him to tell him to work on improvisation.

Watts then appeared and took Lionheart to a Seer, which established a connection between them and Salem. Lionheart gave his report about the location of the Spring Maiden and implored her to hurry because he was at odds with Qrow. The Seer suddenly began to choke him, and Salem warned him not to overstep his bounds before she had the Grimm release him.

Lionheart is consulted on his cowardice by Raven.

Almost a month later, Lionheart called Qrow and informed him he'd managed to acquire a group of huntsmen for the raid on the Branwen Tribe camp, asking him to come to the academy to discuss the plan in detail. After ending the call, he's seen in his office with Raven and admitted that he worked for Salem because he feared her and deemed her as an unstoppable force. Lionheart acknowledged he crossed a line with his betrayal to Ozpin, whom he believed should never forgive him. After Raven told him to man up because he did what he had to do to survive, Lionheart asked who she was trying to convince but received no answer as she left his office.
