Personality: Leo has a cheerful and straightforward personality. He is very opinionated and his actions are faster than his words. He can get very passionate about things that catch his eye and if there is something that even remotely interests him, he will instantly act upon and pursue those feelings. He generally treats everyone kindly and is a very enthusiastic person, looking for exciting things to do.

For the most part, Leo is very simple-minded which sometimes causes him to make rash decisions. However, he can also be quite observant. He is capable of reading social cues and be incredibly empathetic toward others' struggles. As such, he often says just what others need to hear to push themselves in the right direction.

However, despite his generally bubbly exterior, Leo also has a serious attitude, particularly when it comes to his work. His intense love for acting is demonstrated through his impressive display of performing, stemming from his constant desire to improve his abilities.

History:  A young Leo passes by the Theatre in Alorin. He is stopped upon hearing the music within. On display is a huge banner, advertising the performances. Mesmerized by the actors, he is forced to walk within, blue eyes wide as he gets to watch his first performance, his second... and so on... until one day, he would be excited enough to try for himself.

As a child, Leo's parents would travel to many places with Leo. Being the only child of very busy working parents, he would learn how to enjoy the constant moves with friends, making friendships wherever he may end up and widening his web of comrades with each passing city. Leo spent the majority of his childhood being home schooled, meeting with many tutors throughout his nomad life. Even with his parent's work taking them every which way he would have to have high education. For when they would eventually settle, there would be expectations of him from the other bird Feroxi. Regardless of his parent's hard work and high status, Leo was never too smart and would much rather play and goof off rather than sit with his studies.

Things would change when he was a teenager and his family would settle within the city of Alorin; introducing Leo to a whole expansive culture around his own Feroxi kind. So many things were offered to a youthful sparrow in the form of art and entertainment, but he would only focus on one specific; Theater. He had seen performances in his time traveling but nothing could come close to the overwhelming animation that emitted from shows in Alorin. Studying theater would be the first time in his life that he would find great passion in his education. Excitement obtained through dance and storytelling would push him far, and even with his late start, he would soon catch up with others who have been training since childhood. He would work hard, every day, supported by his parents and friends getting small parts within the underdeveloped theaters.

Until one day he would get his chance to work at the stunning main theater, the same one that had started his love for the art all those years ago.

Trying out for the part was hard enough. Leo would need an endorsement from his acting coach, signed results from his singing teacher, letters of recommendation from some of the higher up birds. And he would get that chance to perform... only to have the role taken from him. His nervousness would prove to hinder him, his excitement would overwhelm him, and he wouldn't make any major roles. After losing his only chance to get a lead, Leo would take a backup role, keeping it for a few years, studying under anybody who would give him the time of day. He would keep his victory of getting on the big stage as his win in itself.

His chance would come yet again, years later, in the form of a fox approaching him after a show, giving him a proposition that Leo couldn't refuse; a chance to perform as a lead performer in an upcoming play. Potentially a lie. He would have to leave the part he was playing now, take a risk with a stranger but... but... he couldn't say no. This was his chance.

The next day, the roles were given out for the new show, and Leo was shocked when he receives the main lead because... no way! It was real? The fox had given him a part in the play. And not only that, he had given Leo the position of the main character. It would end up that the fox was the actual writer of these plays, the ever famous Renartz. Not even his assistant, nor somebody on his behalf, no, the actual writer had approached Leo and given him a job himself. Initially, he is overjoyed, but this ecstatic high would only further when he would meet his co-star; Rafael. The greatest, most beautiful most handsome bird in the whole palace. Leo had seen him on stage many times and now he got to work one on one with him for the play.

And boy would he enjoy every moment of working with such a perfect Feroxi. Every critique that came from Rafael's mouth (And there were many) would be taken in stride by the sparrow. Each bitter comment was turned into criticism that Leo would use for self-improvement. He wanted nothing more than to be just as perfect as Rafael, just as cool, talented, famous. His main mission was to improve his acting to finally get a compliment from the flamingo. But that day would never come. Rafael would retire long before Leo even had a chance, and the sparrow would instead take Rafael's place, even if he felt like he wasn't good enough for it.

He now plays the lead in one of the main shows in Alorin, performing day in and day out, enjoying his success without ever truly becoming presumptuous in his position, feeling as though he still has much to learn.

The dreams would start, unexpectedly, bringing much grief to the bird. He'd tell his parents about it, get written off as working too hard by his friends. Until the mark would unexpectedly manifest itself on his neck. He would get taken whilst on stage. The mark becoming clear as day on his neck as he is illuminated by the spotlight.

- Leo lacks manners to some extent, frequently speaking with his mouth full of food, with a tendency to be noisy and untidy.
- Leo has an extreme sweet tooth.
- A+ Fencing skills
- Expert singer
