Leon (Full Metal Ninja)

Leon was a human ninja, who traveled the jungles of Asia.
== Biography ==
=== Boris' Greed ===
Leon's family owned a piece of land, that was coveted by Boris. They refused to sell it to him, and in retaliation, Boris burnt their house down. (FILM: Full Metal Ninja)
=== Campaign of Vengeance ===
Leon, devastated by the death of his family in the fire, began a one-man war against Boris, eventually forcing the criminal to abandon his native land. 
Leon pursued Boris to the pier, where the criminal planned to board a boat, and set sail for China."Full Metal Ninja" Pressbook - IFD Films Leon failed to make it onto the boat, but vowed that, "Justice will be done, and I am the Judge." (FILM: Full Metal Ninja)
=== Dismantling Boris' Empire ===
While Leon lay in the forest, two of Boris' men chased a yellow-suited ninja who owed protection money. When the ninja ran past him, Leon tripped one of the goons, forcing the other to give up the chase. They confronted Leon, asking who he was, before he asked if they worked for Boris. 
When they confirmed that they did, he told them to deliver a message to Boris, that "the judge is here", before they attacked him. He fended them off easily, finally dispatching one of them with his pistol, and letting the survivor flee in terror. (FILM: Full Metal Ninja)
He later met with Eagle, and asked him to train him. Eagle postponed the offer, and Leon said he would take Eagle at his word. (FILM: Full Metal Ninja)
== Weapons and Abilities ==
* Martial Arts Skills: Leon's prowess in martial arts allowed him to perform many different feats.
** Strength: Leon kicked a tree, causing it to fall over, and leaped dozens of feet into the air.
** Speed: Leon was able to dodge thrown swords, catch a sword between his palms and redirect it to deflect another sword, and could easily fend off attacks from multiple attackers at once. 
* Flintlock Pistol: A powerful pistol, that carries only a single shot, and could fire incendiary rounds.While no reference is made within the film to the type of ammo Leon used (Beyond "Bullets are expensive and hard to come by"), this wiki notes that, bullets fired by Leon into enemies were all one-hit kills. The one bullet that Boris fired at Leon hit a tree, and caused a small cloud of smoke and a flame to appear in it. 
* Bo Staff: A metal staff that Leon carried, able to deflect katanas with ease. 
* Teleportation: Learned this skill from Eagle, which allowed him to dodge a bullet.

== Notes ==
* Leon is perhaps the most well-known of Pierre Kirby's characters, if for no other reason than being a purple-suited ninja. He currently has a place on the web banner for The Cinema Snob web series, along with the Goblins and Elsa Fraulein SS.
* Where Leon and Boris come from is never mentioned in the film. Boris had to take a boat to get to the country the film is set in (Only the film's pressbook on IFDFilms.com mentions it as "old China"), though how Leon got there is never explained. The closest we ever get to an explanation is that Boris is a "Westerner".
