Leon Wolfsfeld

Leon stands at five-foot-ten-inches tall, with broad shoulders, tired green eyes, and calloused, scarred knuckles. He has messy and curly brown hair, as well as a short beard on his chin and cheeks and a mustache on his upper lip, all connected to each other and well-groomed. He's a punk and dresses like it: black clothes only occasionally accented with any other color, boots, leather and denim jackets (usually decorated with patches or pins), dark jeans, dark shirts, and plenty of buckles, belts, and/or zippers.

As a child, he used to call Vulpecula Vulpie, but as he grew he stopped using the nickname. Now that Storm is around, though, and struggles to pronounce her name just like he used to, he's taken to re-using it. He smokes.

## Personality

Where as his little sister is more concerned with keeping herself busy and having a game to play or something to compete with, Leon leans more towards being a realist (which is helped with how much older than her he is), worrying more about putting food on the table and making sure the both of them are living comfortably. He's withdrawn, but that isn't to say that he's particularly quiet or a loner - he just prefers socializing with particular people over others, and he can be a bit picky about who he keeps close. If he had it his way, then he would never have to interact with people he doesn't know, but alas, the world doesn't work that way, and if he has to speak with strangers then he will. He isn't one to shirk his responsibility, taking what's given to him without any complaints - though he still might not actually *like* it, only put up with it. When it comes to the people who he's close to, then he can lean a bit on the protective side (though, that protectiveness does tend to be shown more in making sure that they can take care of themselves than him stepping in and doing it for them), as well as caring and affectionate (though he tends to show *that* more through rough-housing than he does anything else). As of now, though, the only person he's close with is Storm, as they've only just moved to the Republic and are still settling in. When he *does* find someone else that he gets along with, though, he doesn't make acquaintances with them; for him, you're either his friend at the least or nothing at all; for the most part, though, he tends to be pretty independent (or, he would, if he didn't have Storm to take care of, now). Even around people he doesn't know or like, though, he doesn't see the point in not saying what he's thinking or feeling, because not doing that is just going to waste time and he'd very much prefer not to do that. He can also be pretty sympathetic when he wants to be and has no trouble feeling for someone else, even if he prefers not to feel that way for most people. He's easy-going and tolerant, too, tending to roll with any curve-balls thrown his way by simply adapting and simply dealing with the things that're put in front of him and getting it over with (and usually ends up acting like he's just exasperated the whole time). He's not one to judge someone else, and he isn't very competitive, either (but he'll get dragged into them often anyways). Even though he's a bit of a loner and can, at times, have little patience for other people - even if it's only internal - he tends to remain patient no matter who he's dealing with. He's also good at keeping his composure no matter what's happening around or to him, and tends to have a pretty wooden expression most of the time, making him a hard person to read. Leon's confident - at times, *too* confident, and can sometimes overestimate himself and land himself in trouble that way. Likewise, his loyalty can also go to the extremes, and he's not likely to see the faults or flaws in someone until they've stabbed him in the back, and he can be so open-minded to new ideas and concepts that he can be dragged into situations that he doesn't exactly want to be in. He's a good fighter; just give him some brass knuckles and he'll be good to go.

## Dæmon

Vulpecula "Vulpie". Crab-Eating Fox. Female.

Vulpie's coat is red-and-black - red on her belly, chin, throat, insides of her ears and legs, and black everywhere else (though, the black appears more like ticked tabby markings on a house cat). She has a narrow body and short, but strong legs, and her eyes are round, wide, and dark.

Vulpie tends to be a bit more assertive than her human is, stating her opinions and thoughts without a care in the world. She can also have a shorter temper than Leon, and while it certainly isn't a common occurrence, it wouldn't be out-of-place for her to snap at someone. She only ever speaks around Leon, Storm, and Lepus, otherwise sticking close to her human and simply enjoying watching as he interacts with the rest of the world; something that she certainly doesn't have the patience for, as she doesn't tolerate other people - particularly strangers - very well.

## History

Leon's mother was even more solitary than he is, keeping to herself aside from her occasional romantic flings, people she dealt with for her "business", as she called it, and her bobcat dæmon. He spent his childhood hopping from town to town in New Holland, and never really got to make many friends when he was younger with how often they moved. He never really got to know his father, either - he has vague memories of the man, and knows that he was tall and had a large beard and *really* liked bacon, but that's about it. He never really questioned why they were moving around so much when he was younger, but as he grew he learned that his mother had more than just a criminal past (that contained drug trafficking, assault, and even murder), but was part of an organized crime ring. She taught him how to fight so that when he was old enough, he could start joining in on the "business", and by the time his sister was born he was already being eased into the ranks - according to his mother, it was the most useful thing he could do. For the most part, he got the impression that she never really cared all that much about him, but she did keep him close; she'd gained more than a few enemies throughout her life, and she wasn't about to let her son be used against her, even if he could defend himself. At fourteen, his mother became pregnant again, and when he was fifteen his half-sister was born. At first, he had some trouble adjusting to the new addition: he was fifteen, and getting a sibling *now*? He did manage to get used to her, though, and more than that he quickly grew fond of her. It was pretty common for him to take on some parental responsibilities from his mother, and not long after they were born the family settled in a coastal town that their "business" was going to start operating in. The more Storm grew, he realized that he didn't want her being pushed into the life that he was being pushed into. Once he was twenty-one, he got his chance: his mother died in a drug deal gone wrong, and now that he had assault, drug trafficking, and enough money to leave (but thankfully not murder), he packed up him and his sister's things and left New Holland behind for the Republic of Heaven.
