Leonas Kirimel

Leonas Kirimel was a male, half-elf Paladin from Lautus. He was a member of The Capable People and was one of the Champions of Leo. He was a combat oriented, elven military trained fighter, specifying in melee combat carrying the iconic Sun blade. He had no childeren and and did not get into a dedicated relationship.

Appearance
Leonas was 6ft. 6in. tall, wearing full white plate armor with golden embroidery and decorated with golden depictions of Holy symbols of Leo. His eyes were characteristically golden, like all the Dadrian siblings, and he had platinum white hair. On his right hip sat a sling holding the hilt of the aforementioned sun blade. He used to have a shield on his back, but it was lost in The Battle of Grinkledorfs Tower

Early Life
Leonas was born in the High-Elven city of Lautus (dis.) and was raised by his adoptive mother, Liv. Initially the Court of Affairs in Lautus didn't want to allow Liv to raise Leonas in Lautus and suggested that he be sent away to Hobbitton. Liv managed to settle an arrangement with the Court to allow Leonas (with some help from General Darwin) to receive a High-Elven upbringing up until age 16 and then be expelled from the city. At age 12, Leonas started receiving military training at the barracks in Lautus, where he met Maylin Doronna Jororis IV. Initially, most of his co-trainees got along with him, but over the years grew prejudice against his impure bloodline. Leonas specialized in melee combat with bladed weapons and received commendations from his trainers. On his 15th birthday, his mother gave him an elven longsword, and as per Liv's arrangement, he left the city of Lautus on the day before his 16th put birthday.

Mercenary career
Shortly after leaving Lautus, Leonas encountered a Dwarf Warlord called Vivian. He was leading a small mercenary group called The Horde of the Woods that was being employed by Lautus to fight in The War of the Elves and the Orcs. After some time, Leonas grew fond of Vivian and the group and joined some weeks later. Leonas spent some months on small reconnaissance missions before the mercenary group got redirect to ambush missions on Orc settlements. These were essentially suicide missions and many of his friends were killed in brutal melee combat with the orcs. Leonas was also often instructed to perform brutal death squad sweeps of small orc villages, many of them being home to innocent orc children and women. This had a profound impact on Leonas. The group justified their massacres by the teachings of the Elven writer Lovias, who described the Orcs as an evil and impure race, and that killing them was a good deed. When Leonas was 17, Vivian was killed in a battle close to Fleetwood, and the Horde of the Woods splintered as a result. Leonas followed 3 members of his group close to Nar Buldar where he arranged to help in fighting a small dwarven civil rebellion. The Dwarfs tought him Dwarfish, as well as handling larger weapons, like battle-axes and siege weapons, although Leonas did not become very proficient with them, and preferred to fight in his trained style of close bladed combat.

Joining the Dadrians
When Leonas was 21, he was campaigning with a new dwarfish-elvish mercenary group called The Blades, led by an infamous Elven commander called Ymone Hastas. They had just finished squashing a dwarfish rebellion in the west-end of the Dwarfish Kingdoms when Leonas heard of a festival in Deus. Leonas knew that there weren't many jobs left to do for the dwarfs, and he had been receiving less and less gold for jobs, so he decided to abandon the group and go seeking more exotic jobs in Deus. He arrived on the second day of the festival, camped in the tents outside the city walls and witnessed the Pyramid Incident, which sent panic through the city. Shortly after these events, Leonas came across the mysterious letter instructing him to go to The Drunken Dragon tavern in the city. There is where he finally met the Dadrian siblings and his adventures with them started.

Becoming the Champion of Leo
When the capable people were on their way to Xorgan to meet Ashwick's friends, Bogdan teleported Leonas away from them without warnig, Leonas went on a wild adventure, first he was transported, interestingly, to The Void, where Leonas met face to face with The Darkness, it tried to convince him to abandon his siblings and join his rankings, promising him great rewards, but Leonas denied profusely. This angered the Darkness, but before it was able to trap or hurt Leonas, Bogdan managed to pull him out. But due to some difficulty in teleporting out of the Void, Leonas and Bogdan were cast into the endless spacetime continuum, and landed in a foreign reality called Faerûn. There, Leonas met an exotic adventuring group that gave him food and instructed him to a nearby town called Waterdeep, where he might find a magician to help him get back to Grink.

Adventures with the Capable people
(see The Capable People.)

Bogdan
While in The Archives for the first time, Leonas was approached by a faceless spirit that appeared non-hostile, the spirit reached out to Leonas, him being startled after evading The Librarian, and after making contact, the spirit possessed Leonas benignly. The spirit helped Leonas escape the Archives but didn't introduce himself, allowing Leonas to give him the nickname "Bogdan" after a monster from an old elven folktale he heard from his mother. Bogdan and Leonas developed a mutually beneficial relationship, Bogdan giving vital advice and help to Leonas in times of need, Leonas providing a material host for Bogdans soul. Notably, Bogdan never revealed his true identity, and the Capable people found themselves growing suspicious of the effects Bogdan might have on Leonas, and whether Bogdan may be an imposter or spy for the enemies of Dadrians. When Leonas was transformed into the Champion of Leo, part of the ritual included using the power of the sun to burn all sin out of Leonas's body, during the ritual, as Leonas felt Bogdan burning away in his hand, he controversially stopped the ritual and asked Leo to spare Bogdan, to with Leo obliged. During the Battle of Grinkledorfs Tower, Fury was injured in a battle with the Eldritch beast Constantine, at that moment, Bogdan fully processed Leonas' body, showing his true form and attacking the beast. The event soured the relationship between Bogdan and Leonas, who wasn't too pleased with being possessed, after consulting Leo, who offered to finish the ritual and burn (thus killing) Bogdan out of Leonas's body, but Leonas chose to allow Bogdan to be exorcised voluntarily, letting Bogdan possess a willing Jarex, who were soulmates.

GünniGünniGünni
During the Dadrian mission to Pestilence, following the Pyramid Incident, Leonas was teleported out of hell by Bogdan, while on his way back, he found himself in The Abyss. There, Leonas met GünniGünniGünni (Günni), she gave him powerful but cursed Demon Armor, that Leonas couldn't remove, and made Leonas her new Champion, against his will. Unbeknownst to Leonas, Günni is actually Chadette, Leonas's true mother, although she was not allowed to reveal this truth, because that would compromise her protection and control of the Abyss. As a result, Leonas believed Günni to be an evil demon who wanted to exploit him, as all Leonas had ever heard of Günni was that she was an evil and cruel prince of a pseudo-hell, and he resented being her champion greatly.
