## Biography

***Witches of Gamindustri: Dawn of Witches***

Leo's introduction was an encounter he had with some Terits (which he calls "Blockies"). After using his magic to create an arrow to fire at them, he tried using an old wooden bow he had found in the forest to melee one that had gotten close to him, breaking the weapon. With this having been done, he chose to run until he reached the main city and ended up crashing into the Basilicom (he had no clue what it was called at the time). After a moment of saying hi to the building, he wandered inside and looked around until he found Vert's room, where her computer got him intrigued due to his unfamiliarity (it had a screensaver showing some colored lines creating patterns). Initially confused for Ran-Ran, Vert sleepily let him in without getting up, and he looked at the "new" piece of technology before being greeted by Vert with a spear to the back of his neck. After some explaining and showing his familiar's features on his body, Vert decided to let him stay in the Basilicom.

***Witches of Gamindustri: The Idol of Leanbox***

Some time after being brought into Leanbox's Basilicom thanks to Vert, Leo worked on a character she had him make for an MMORPG she was playing. After around an hour of fighting a boss, Leo decided to get going on a Quest Yvoire asked him to handle. While hunting Terits, he heard someone singing and, after some searching, ran across a young girl who is surprised to notice his familiar. He tried to talk to her but is greeted by her guitar hitting him in the head, preceded by screaming loud enough to make him cover his ears. Afterwards, he is forced to handle a batch of enemies who appeared to have been attracted to the noise. Later on in the short, Vert treated him to a 5pb concert in Leanbox, and even took him backstage to meet the idol, who ends up being the girl Leo ran into. After chatting for a bit, Leo returned to Vert and Yvoire and is asked a few questions by the goddess.
