Leo Nichols {Done}

[attr="class","ws-title"]HISTORY

Leo was born into a noble family from Cesta. While his father is a loyalist to the crown, his mother is just a regular noble woman who would rather dote on his older sister than him. His sister is three years older than himself. And while he is loved dearly by his mother, Leo is more closer to his father. At the age of five is when his father began to train Leo how to use a blade. A fake blade at first of course, since he was just a small child after all. As he got older, his father began to train him with the real thing. Teaching Leo how to defend properly, where to strike an enemy. Weak points. Not only on human dummies but creature based dummies as well.

He proved to become a good swordsman that even though he wasn't close to the level of those in the royal guard, or the loyalists like his father he was pretty skilled. Leo continued to show great promise, his father suggested that he was ready to take on the real things and not just the dummies. That he was ready to join the loyalists. But first he needed to past a test, to prove his worth and loyalty if he was going to serve the crown. When the day of the test came, his task was to kill four rebels. One a young woman, two young men and a child. They were rebels who were against the crown, against the king. But Leo couldn't do it. While growing up he was told stories of the rebels and what the crown of Cesta does to those that oppose the king and of the rising conflicts and wars that have happened.. Blade risen, eyes staring down at the shackled prisoners before him. Leo cut their chains and turned his blade on the guards and even his own father. Even though he was of noble blood, he had seen the pain and the suffering that went on within the walls of Cesta. He'd not take orders, or take lives of those who didn't deserve the die without a good reason.

That day he defied all he stood for. Branded a traitor, he fought against the guards and his father. In the end being captured and locked up. Chains on his wrists, days of torture and no food. That was the norm for two years. His father tried to reason with him but he'd not hear it. One night, the sound of his cell door opening and two thuds from the guards on watch alerted him.The woman and one of the young men he had saved on that day two years ago had come to grant him his freedom. For his help and sparing their lives, they managed to get Leo out of the dungeon and out of the city. Taking him to a rebel camp hidden within the Moror woods.
He was cared for by the young woman, she cleaned his wounds and nursed him back to health. When he was strong enough, Leo left the camp in the middle of the night not even bothering to take the time to remember where it was.

The rebels never kept their camp in the same place for long, and he was grateful that he had been rescued. Since he couldn't return home, Leo became a bounty hunter. People, or any creature could hire him to take on bounties if they so chose to. He'd accept coin as payment. Never staying in one place too long he tends to wander, making camp anywhere that's suitable for him and giving aid to those who deserve it.

[attr="class","ws-title"]ABILITIES

Cooking: Even though Leo was born into a noble family, with servants to make food and such. He took it upon himself to learn how to cook. At first he sucked, almost burned the kitchen down along with the house. Between training and his lessons, that was when he cooked. Getting help from the cooks and learning a lot. He's still not a pro but he can cook decent meals.

Blades: The sword was the blade he was first introduced to. And it was the sword that he trained and honed his skills with.The sword he has was given to him by his father, so even though he has turned his back on his family the sword is a treasure to him. Leo also trained with throwing knives, spears and daggers. Besides his sword, he carries some daggers on his person and hidden but close so he has easy access to pull them out. And not always does he hit his mark with the daggers, those are his weak weapons.
