**Leland Bore** (US: /'li:lənd·boɹ/), also known as **Conrad Uctor** (US: /'kɑn.ɹæd·'ʌk.tɚ/), is a character in *Drawtectives*. He is played and was created by Julia Lepetit.

Leland is a former hypnotist who is responsible for the crimes committed on the Celestial Spear Express.

## Biography

Leland Bore was, for a long time, one of the world's best hypnotists, and was in frequent competition with Eugene Finch. After a while, however, the public's interest in hypnotism waned, as did Leland's popularity. He had a show on Junary 2nd at the Glam Clam scheduled at the same time as Eugene's show at Temple Court, which led to very low attendance at his show. He began to receive negative reviews on his shows while Eugene's success skyrocketed as he ventured into seances and the art of necromancy.

Leland then discovered Eugene's secret project, a means of replicating the afterlife by transporting people's spirits to a metaphysical plane of existence to ease people's anxieties about death. Leland saw the monetary potential in the idea and became frustrated that Eugene did not see it as well. He realized that he could simply charge passengers a fortune and then dissolve their spirits once they had boarded. He thus took over the project and used his hypnotism to erase the memories of Eugene and the numerous talents Eugene had hired for the Celestial Spear project. Leland changed the names of most people on board, even changing his own to Conrad Uctor, reflecting his new role as conductor. Felix, the animatronic cat who also helped out on the Celestial Spear, noticed Leland's antagonistic and capitalist desires and grew to dislike him.

At some point, Eugene Finch found himself aboard the train, along with the Drawtectives. Leland put on the facade of Conrad Uctor and greeted them, introducing them to the first experience on the train. Once the team was occupied in the first experience, Leland switched himself out for an animatronic decoy of himself, who would go on to greet the Drawtectives once they returned.

After a few hours, Eugene and the Drawtectives, as well as Jancy True and Felix, made their way into the engine room and confronted him, having figured out his true nature. York Rogdul put Leland in arm jail and Felix went to the Joust Houst to retrieve a cauldron of hot gazpacho soup for him to be dunked into. Leland explained his plans to the Drawtectives and was then taken into custody in the physical world by Jancy True.

## Trivia

* Leland's true name was intended to sound as boring as possible.
* Leland's alias "Conrad Uctor" was created by Caldwell Tanner because it combines the pun of "Conductor" and "Con artist".
* While explaining why he, as a conductor, does not navigate the train, he mentioned The United States of America. This was an accident on Julia's part, and America is not canon within the world of Drawtectives.
	+ However, later in the series, a currency is referred to as "Bamerican Dollars", implying that a place called Bamerica does in fact exist.
* Leland has a planchette and purple colours because he is themed after spirits, in contrast to the space and cat themes of other parts of the season, as he is the antagonist.
* Leland is bad at spelling.
