history
[/size][/right]Leon was born in the Roman empire in the year 261. Leon's mother died giving birth to him and his father was a soldier in the Roman empire. Leon was raised as a warrior by his father, he did this to ensure that Leon would follow in his footsteps and that the training would help prepare Leon for the life he would later be forced to lead. This training involved improving Leon both physically and mentally a lot of effort was also used to erase any form of compassion Leon had. By the time Leon reached the age of sixteen the training had done what it was supposed to with one exception. Leon's compassion, his kindness had be completely buried. Leon was now ready to enlist as a solider in the Roman empire. Throughout the years Leon's strength, agility and his Strategic planning has caused him to become a great threat to the Roman empire's enemies and it has allowed him to quickly rise up the ranks to a respected military position, Leon's brutality had also caused his enemies to greatly fear him some men had even fled various battles. By the time he reached thirty he had already gotten married and had seven children five were boys while the other two were daughters. Leon also became well known in the world, some could say he had became a living legend, he was one of if not the most skilled warrior in the Roman empire.
Seven months after his thirtieth birthday Leon was sent to hostile location with a small unit of elite warriors. Leon's mission was to eliminate or subdue any hostile he would likely encounter. Leon's superiors didn't think he would have too much trouble as his natural talents had not only allowed him to survive against numerous odds before but they have allowed him to succeed in missions that would of seemed impossible with low resources. Unfortunately it didn't take Leon and his men long to find the hostile's. Immediately after encountering the hostile's Leon and his men thought this mission would be easier than expected as there were only two individuals even Leon underestimated his foes which was a fatal mistake.
Leon and his unit soon realized they weren't up against ordinary men and woman and within a matter of minutes Leon's entire unit was decimated by two individuals who could move faster than the eye could see and who were as strong as twenty men. Leon looked in terror as he watched his entire unit being destroyed before his very eyes. Despite the belief that he couldn't win this fight Leon still chose to fight, to the death if it was necessary. Despite all his skill Leon was easily beaten by the female hostile named Katherine,but instead of killing him like the rest she began the process of turning him into the same creature that she was. She began the process of turning him into a vampire.
Leon found it quite hard to adjust to the new hard life that had been enforced upon him, this was mostly due to the humanity he was holding onto but his maker's influence eventually enabled him to distinguish the little humanity that still remained within him, the humanity that was holding him back. Leon spent the next five hundred years fighting in as many wars as he could but as he could only participate at night he didn't get as much action as he would of liked. Leon continued killing and torturing through his first five hundred years with his maker by his side without showing a slightest hint of remorse. And as time went on he grew more brutal, more savage.
Leon's victims were not only humans but some were witches and psychics who were basically just humans with unique abilities. And some were werewolves, others were shape shifters and lastly he killed various vampires that annoyed him or worst he tortured and then killed vampires that enraged him. Leon quite enjoyed. torturing his victims and his skill at torturing grew as he acquired more prey. A few hundred years later Katherine suddenly disappeared leaving Leon alone without any sort of reason. Leon never found out what happened to her, he never found out if she was dead or alive all he knew was that he was now over seven hundred years old and he was now alone in his new eternal life.
Leon spent the next three hundred years mostly alone, Leon didn't mind spending years alone but it did sometimes get boring and so on occasions he would have some sort of company. Leon started spending more time with humans and over time he began to feel affection for some humans and other individuals that were from a supernatural race. Leon even began to feel love something which he believed he was no longer capable of. It would seem without Katherine's direct influence he was not as ruthless as he was years before, but despite this he was still known to be cruel and ruthless to people who angered or annoyed him but now he simply wasn't as savage.
While he did now feel affection for some humans and other creatures that didn't stop him from feeding on other humans and it didn't change the fact that he loved to fight and maim people. Leon spent the remainder of his years learning to better control his emotions and his darker impulses. Leon eventually managed to succeed in learning to better control most of his emotions but one thing he found incredibly hard to control was his anger. Leon didn't seem too concerned when the vampires revealed themselves to the human public in fact he seemed somewhat pleased, he was somewhat bored of hiding in the shadows. Leon tried Tru Blood a few times but didn't quite like the taste so he continued to feed on live humans.[/div][/td][td]

role play sample |
After spending a hour in the shower Leon took his time getting dried and once he got dried he spent even more time trying to pick out some clothes he would like to wear. After careful consideration Leon picked out some dark denim jeans as his lower body clothing, he chose to wear some black shoes as his foot wear, he also chose to wear a black dress shirt without a tie along with his favourite black leather jacket. After picking out his chosen clothing and after getting dressed in his chosen attire Leon then started to style his hair. Leon usually never took too long styling his hair as he always only spiked up the fringe but kept the rest of his hair neat and tidy, with his hair now done Leon only needed to do one more thing that would slightly affect his appearance and that was to have a quick shave. After having a shave Leon quickly grabbed his house keys and his cell phone, and just before he exited he grabbed his vortex manipulator and put it on his right wrist.
After he walked out of his apartment he slowly locked his door and place his apartment key in one of his front jean pockets. Leon then walked out of the apartment building at a slowed pace. Leon planned on doing what he did every other night and that was having fun. Leon spent most nights going to clubs which would then end in him coming home with an attractive individual, sometimes it was a woman, sometimes a man and other times it was both but one thing that never happened was the same person never came home with him more than once. After finding a club to his liking Leon headed straight to the bar and ordered his favourite alcoholic beverage which was bourbon. After ordering and drinking three glasses of bourbon Leon started to interact with various people he even dance which was then followed by flirting with attractive individuals. Leon tried to not drink too much or stay out too late as his had work the next day which he quite enjoyed. After talking to and then flirting with a young woman around his age Leon headed outside the club in her company with the intent of having some more fun once they have arrive at his place.[/div][/center][/td][/tr][/table]
