:bulletgreen:History:
Leon originally used to be the name of an independent archeologist's son who traveled america with his father, exploring old structures in south america about 17 years before the war would start. The young human was only 11 years old when he found an odd-looking egg in a small crevice of an aztec temple. Without anyone guarding it or paying attention, he took the egg along, hiding it rom his father who was working in the area. It would only take a few days or a tiny serpentine demon to hatch from it who could take off the ground only seconds after being born and sarted orbiting Leon's head, memorising his face well as it was the first one he saw. Noticing how the little creatue had some effect on the air surrounding it, Leon named him Sylph.

With Sylph growing rapidly, it became impossible to keep his existance a secret from Leon's father. However, seeing how close his son and this demon were, he decided to allow their odd friendship, keeping an eye on the flying snake. As Sylph grew bigger and stronger, more capable of using his powers, he became quite protective of Leon who found pleasure in riding the aztec dragon through the sky. Sylph would always allow this and make sure the boy was safe, fully understanding that he was not like him and that humans could not in act fly. More often than not Leon's outgoing behavious would have him end up in trouble but thanks to Sylph he always had a way out, even when playing in dangerous areas while raveling around far away from society.

Leon followed in his father's footsteps, having learned well from him. With Sylph around, he became quite fearless of possible threats in the wilderness. Howwever, when he heard about a war between demons and humans breaking loose, two parties that never had gotten along all that well in his own memory, he started to worry. With the loyal wind demon by his side, he did his best to avoid the fights and find a smal secluded village to live, hoping the terror would be over eventually and he could venture out with Sylph once more.

However, the war never seemed to end. There was one big problem in Leon's plans, that being the huge difference in lifespans between demons and humans. He was growing old, loosing hope that this war was ever going to be finished and settled in the village completly. Sylph would stay by his side even during that time, becommng a small attraction for the local children who Sylph grew fond of. Especially now that Leon was not as eager to take off into the skies with him, those kids reminded him of better times.

Decades passed. The war still went on.

70 years after the fights had started Sylph had grown as strong as Leon had grown weak. One morning the human would not wake up anymore, no matter how much the dragon nudged his side, awaiting his voice to speak to him. Sylph would guard the gravestone for months and the folk living in the village would provide food for the demon, feeling his pain as Leon had grown on many of the people here. One day however, Sylph was gone from his spot near the grave, never to be seen by the people of this village again...

Skip to current day, Russia, Town of Serry:
A young man in a tanktop, loose pants and boots enters the area. A coat is hanging over his shoulder. Pale green hair is flowing in the cold wind, almost hiding the oval emerald embed in his forehead. The demon in his human form lets his tail move fluently behind hi mas he walks through the streets while a confident smile is showing on his face. If asked, he will introduce himself as Leon Sylph. He seems to be passionate about repairing the relationship of humans and demons and seems to be a huge supporter of the idea of a human and a demon becoming one through the bond.....


:bulletgreen:Why Leon wants to join DAMMED:
Leon has grown up with a human and is a firm believer of the two races easily being able to get along if they really try. He thinks that te bond will play a big role in showing the world that humans and demons are not meant to fight against each other and that a war as the oe that happened should never reoccur.

:bulletgreen:Other:
> He claims to have been witnessing battlefields during the war. However, he has never fought for the demons and spent most of his time there evacuating injured soldiers from both sides.
> Leon is rather over-confident but usually doesn't put himself above others. However, he does seem to have a sense of rivalry towards other reptilian/draconic demons.
> He loves words that sound important and sometimes ends up using words that don't make sense at this point in a sentence.
> Leon loves to dress up and decorates himself when he can.
> Leon's kind grows up fast but only develops more colorful features when much older and stronger. This might be why he is drawn to colorful things.
> Leon's wind bombs are made from air compressed to a degree that the changed density makes the light refract slightly differently. If you look closely , you can see a weak outline.
> He plays with his bombs more than he should.
> He loves to talk about his passions and ideals, enjoying to ispire others to reach greater heights.
> If someone is upset, Leon tends to push their chin up to make them look skywards. The gesture seems to have a special meaning to him.
> During Training Leon often ties is hair up to not get in the way. The same goes for formal events.
