Body description: Leo is around 6'2 with a beard and shoulder length hair. He looks a bit like a soldier, but he really isn't. He hasn't attracted a lot of female attention, although he is quite handsome. Maybe he just doesn't look approachable enough. He keeps his hair and beard clean and tries to look friendly at all times.

Personality: Leoric is really kind. You might not notice it straight away, cause he does tend to keep to himself a bit, but his job as a bartender makes it easier for him to practice being social. A lot of customers won't remember the interaction the day after, due to the alcohol, or because they came to the brothel for other purposes and didn't pay a lot of attention to the bartender.

He is good with children and animals, and tries to steer clear of confrontation and combat. He's a bit of a teddy bear, actually. He loves to show off his wife. Their marriage is a 'scam' to cover up the fact that Leo is secretly gay, but he can appreciate female beauty and knows his wife is beautiful. He will always put her needs before his own. He just wants to see the ones he loves happy.

Magic: N/A

Combat experience: Informal private training. Leo can defend himself if he needs to, but he prefers not to.

History:
Leoric is Walter and Sarah's first and only child. They have a horse breeding farm right outside of Allure. They're known for their quality horses and training. They had hoped that Leo would follow in their footsteps, but the boy wasn't as passionate about horses as them. Still, they had hope. 

Up until the age of 10, he had only seen the capital city a handful of time when he went along with his parents. Most of his time was spent at the farm, playing with the cats and dog, or with the children of employees. When he was 10, he went to the city every day for his education. He was a relatively quiet child, but a happy one. He had a few friends and would walk with them after school, until they parted ways to go to their own houses. 

Around the age of 15, he started to understand that he was different. The boys in his class talked about girls and who they wanted to marry, but he didn't think about girls at all. They were pretty, but he just wasn't interested in the idea of marriage. It would take him a few more years to realise that he was gay. 

Leoric helped out at the farm, but his parents weren't really satisfied with his work. They kindly suggested he looked for another line of work. Leoric was interested in the military, but he had no experience whatsoever. He decided to enter the classes of a personal trainer, to learn a little bit about self-defence, to see if he was any good at combat. It was here that he met Olivette Pryor . The two of them became close quickly, and spent a lot of time together. She visited him at the farm on a few occasions, which led his parents to ask about her and their relationship. They had been pressing him to get married, something Leo didn't want to do. Homosexuality wasn't generally accepted, and marriage certainly wasn't a thing for them. He was too afraid to tell them the truth. 

Then Olivette made a move on him. It was an emotional moment for them. After she tried to kiss him, he gently sat her down and held her hands. Then, with a soft voice, he had told her that he was gay. Leoric also told her that he couldn't tell his parents, and that they kept pressuring him about getting married. His friend offered to marry him, because it was mutually beneficial to them. She told him she had inherited a brothel, and that she was the Madam. Marrying him would elevate her status, and help her reach a bigger clientele. Of course he agreed and accepted, relieved that he hadn't lost his best friend.

The pair has been married for around eight years now. His parents were over the moon to see their son get married, but now they are starting to ask about grandchildren. It is a topic Olivette and Leoric still have to tackle.
