She describes men like Randy Orlando, Agate Crosner and Michael Irving (if he wasn't so stubborn) as her 'type.
=== Background ===
Leonara used to be part of an escort fleet, the Silver Whales. It was one of many pirate fleets of the time that was hired to protect commercial fleets, and this earned them the association of 'jaegars of the sea'. The government dismantled the fleet after the October War. They walked hand in hand with danger, but Leonora says this just made them more united.

She enrolls at the Thors Branch Campus in S.1206 and is placed in Class VIII: Combat Tactics. Leonora joins and is the captain of, the Branch Campus Swimming team, where she provides a great amount of of support and encouragement to Altina Orion. She doesn't think that the academy is as intense or comfortable as the fleet, but it isn't bad by her words either.
Rean helps Leonora to study about history topics she isn't familiar with, which is most things not involving the sea. She also duels and loses to Rean in a Soldat battle. during training exercises.
While in Ordis, Leonora visits some of the taverns she used to frequent and cannot but think of her old comrades on the sea, one of which is involved in illegal activities including extortion and makes her ashamed and frustrated. Leonora is asked to help get through to an old comrade from the escort fleet, Herman, who is seven years her junior and one of their best fighters. She is called in at the blockade put up and states Herman has met his match and berates him for his refusal to let the highs of the past go.

After the Great Twilight, Leonora travelled to Ordis. She is met again in Miranda's tavern. She says she was marked down and has not been able to move around much, regretting that she couldn't come and join the battle around Alster. She is able to pass on rumours about Towa's captivity in the mansion however. She comes to their aid in the waterways later on.
During the preparations for the Great War, Leonora and Shirley get into an argument on the beach. Rean intercedes and they all decide to settle things with a swimming race to half the distance of Bryonia Island and back. It ends up in Leonora's victory.
Leonora joins the crew onboard the Courageous II and is asked to be the assistant pilot. In Mishelam, she hangs around with Altina.
