History: As it turns out, Sirona had an affair with a fine Celtic god, that went by the name of Taranis. Thus, Sirona was pregnant with twins. Rhona, the daughter of Bel, and Leon, son of Taranis. At first, Bel was overjoyed to hear that Sirona was having twins, however, this quickly changed when he heard that one of the twins was not his. Fortunately for Leon, Taranis passed away, and out of initial pity, Bel decided to raise Leon as his own... at a price. Bel still felt betrayed by Sirona. Therefore, in a fit of rage, Bel cursed Leon to take the form of a black lion.
Upon the first 5 years of his life, Leon felt nothing but bitterness and hatred towards his sister, believing that his curse was her fault. Since Leon was the stronger twin, he would constantly use this to his advantage when messing with his sister. He would constantly play too rough or would run too far ahead and leave Rhona to fend for herself. Only to be scolded later for it.
This all changed when Leon played a little bit rougher than he should've and ended up having Rhona faint. However, this became a huge turning point for Leon. Ever since that fateful day, Leon has been much more loving, gentle, and protective over Rhona. Acting her familiar, guardian... and the brother she didn't even knew she had.
Eventually, the curse placed on him weakened over time to the point where it disappeared completely. However, Leon decided to not reveal his true self to his beloved sister, rather, stay the way he was. Rhona's familiar. On occasion, when Rhona isn't looking, he will turn back to his true self, temporarily.
