Name: Leonardo
From: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(An AU universe)
Appearance:
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Personality: Of the four turtles Leonardo is the closest to his Mirage original in personality. He's Raphael's twin. Flip side of the same coin. One runs hot (Raph). The other runs cold (Leo). Out of the two, Leonardo is the more dangerous of them. With Raphael you have a little forewarning, while on the contrary with Leonardo you will have little to no warning before he's angry, and coming at you. Leonardo's response to his frustrations is to ignore them, to get rid of the emotions. He does this for as long as he can, but even he can't last forever. They build up to the point that he just explodes, to the point that he simply can't keep the frustrations inside anymore. Under his otherwise cool exterior, he has a temper that could rival or even beat Raphael's own. That coupled with bottling things up makes him dangerous in fights.
He's always been the most spiritual of the turtles and the best strategist. Able to think on his feet. But he also plans ahead for everything that could happen. He has a code of honor all his own(even if it's shifted some), He was always straight to the point and serious. But since working for Oroku Saki, he's become even more so. He's learned to reign in that volatile anger, and suppress it for the right time for it to escape. He's learned to follow orders just as well as he gives them and when to speak up and when to keep silent. What he hides from Saki and the others though, is the inner turmoil that he has. On the one hand it felt like the right thing. But on the other, he pretty much abandoned his family, and has even fought them before.
Backstory: He was born one of your average, run of the mill pet shop turtles, and sold in a small shop in the heart of New York City. He was bought, along with three other baby turtles, by a young boy. But they never made it to the boy’s home. On the trek home, the boy was witness to an accident, where a blind man was nearly hit by a large truck. The blind man was saved by another man, but the boy was bumped by the savior, and in turn dropped the glass jar that held the four turtles.
By the time the boy tried to rescue them, it was too late. The four turtles had slid down into the sewer drain, and out of sight. Not far behind, a canister of strange glowing green ooze, landed in the same gutter, and dropped into the sewer, crashing down, breaking open and covering the baby turtles in the goop. Luck seemed to be on the baby turtle’s side, as a kind rat, which lived in the sewers, just happened to be nearby, and he gathered them up, getting some of the goop on himself and took them to his borough.
The next day much to the rat’s astonishment, the four baby turtles had doubled in size over night, as well as him. Over the next sixteen years, the rat would raise the four turtles as his own sons. He trained them in ninjutsu, and the ways of the warrior. He also gave them each names, based on a book of renaissance art he had found in the gutter. They became Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo.
During the training, Splinter saw traits in Leonardo, that but him above the other three. Splinter gave Leonardo extra training in preparation for the day that he would be leading his brothers in combat. As he grew up, Leonardo grew into the role, becoming more serious than his brothers, and studying the ways of combat, and tactics.
It would be many years before they would have contact with the outside world beyond their sewer home. It came in the form of helping a damsel in distress, who got attacked by her ex boss, Baxter Stockman. Baxter had sent his mouser robots against her, the same robots that had destroyed their original lair. The woman, April O'Neil, got to hear the story of how they came to be, and she and the turtles would work together to stop the scientists plans. Miss O'Neil would be one of the first people they met, but she would be far from the last.
They worked as the cities silent helpers, helping those who were in need, dealing with the street gangs that the human cops rarely messed with. They would fight many battles, and many different enemies. But as they say, one event or a number of events can change things. He was offered proposition by Saki to work for him. After a battle that happened(unbeknownst to him), he took the offer.
This is a list summary of the rest of the AU timeline.
Moral Standing: Neutral, though leaning more toward the evil side
Dreams: He dreams to be one of the best warrior that he can be. But he always hopes that some day maybe his family and Foot Clan can get along with each other. Even if that seems like a long shot.
Fears: His biggest fear is of failing. Failing in his duty. Failing the one he follows. Fear of something going wrong.
Extra: Just that this is an AU.
Samples:
Writing Sample: My first time really playing him.
