Skills and Abilities
- Warrior – Leo is a fine swordsman, though no legend in that regard. Where he really shines is defense. His reflexes are great and he wields his shield almost as if it was another part of himself, parrying strikes with minimal effort and leaving enemies wide open, or at the least making sure no harm comes to him or those he guards.
- Marksman – Leo is fine with a gun, good aim, and a steady hand, but he can reload almost instantaneously, all four of his hands moving in sync to clean the weapon, prepare the next shot, light the fuse and fire.
- Familiarity - Leo knows every nook and cranny of his beloved Myrma's Heidek, all its citizens and the slightly seedy underground it hides.
- Cooking and Housekeeping - Living alone, Leo has learned to make simple dishes and keep his home clean and functional.
"The drones work for the Duke, whom works for the Queen, whom in turn works for all of Formicadae. Only when everyone understands and works with each other, can peace reign."Personality
Leo puts loyalty above all else, as he has been taught by his father. He will never betray an ally, and any ally betraying him is a major blow to his morale. He likes making friends, and hates when people get heated in arguments. He is no pacifist though, and does not mind violence, though killing another sentient being is something he prefers not to do, and in fact he hasn't done so yet, even in self defense.
History
Though Leo doesn't remember this, when he was just a larva he and his father, Alhwin entered Heidek when their homes were sacked by bandits. Neither of them knew of anyone else who escaped, but Alhwin attempted to continue his life as an advisor to the Duke. His relationship with Myrma was rather close, and Leo occasionally even got to visit the Duke sometimes as a pupa. In his father's free time, he trained his son in combat, admitting he was trained in both nobility and combat.
One day, Leo's father simply vanished, along with a large sum of chips, most of the Fritz savings. Eventually, he was found dead in a forest, though the Chips were never recovered. Without his father, Leo felt lost, having just reached adulthood. He became obsessed with the only other major figure in his life, Myrma, and vowed to protect her, becoming one of her Knights and protecting Heidek.
