Leonidas

*Name: Leonidas(Leon for friends) Donell (Does not use his family name anymore.)

*Age: 18

*Race: Human

*Sex: Male

*Hair: Black

*Eyes: Dark brown

*Height: 5’9 Feet

*Weight: 70 Kg

*Weapon: Pata sword. The sword’s Smith is unknown, but it is very sharp. The sword is so sharp that if the blade is suspended on a creek facing the current the sword will cut anything that passes it’s way; Fish, leaves floating down the river, even the very air that blows on it.

*Armor: The back of his Pata sword and movement greaves.

*Strengths: Leonidas is faster and more agile than an average human, and with the adition of his movement greaves, Leonidas has become 3 times faster than before. Wich results in an amasing amount of speed and movement. Being able to run as fast as a horse (Wihthout the greaves) and having great speed in throwing punches, a normal person can only imagine how fast and movile he's become. He is, of course, far away from the level of many of the most powerful people in the dome.

In addition his reflexes are incredibly sharp, making him able to react almost immediately to any kind of movement. Combining these abilities of his, he becomes a target in witch it’s really hard to lay a hit.

*Weakness: To start he’s human so anything than can kill a human is capable of killing him. Also, when he’s not in a dangerous area or situation he leaves his guard down, making it easy to catch him by surprise. He also tends to underestimate the enemy if it doesn’t look like much at first sight. Also he doesn’t have any long rage attacks.

*Skills: Leonidas has been trained to use many kinds of swords, and has also been trained in the following martial arts (note that this his most outstading ability and is very skilled in them):
Jeet kune do
Long fist kung fu
Aikido
ju-jitsu
Tae kwon do


In addition, His movemente greaves tripled his movement capabilities. That means he is three times faster and more agile than he was.

"Mind over matter"
After a mere weak of training by himself trhough some martial arts books, Leonidas has been able to concentrate and turn off his sense of pain. It does have limits though. Also, the fact that he doesn't feel pain doesn't mean he's not being damaged. This technique is both good and bad for him. It allows him to fight withouth being distracted by pain, but at the same time, he can't tell how wounded he his. He is still thinking of what other uses he might be able to give this theory of mind over matter.

"Spirit of conquest(Unperfected/unastered)"
A punching technique developed by him in the same week he managed to control his sence of pain (Further showing his skills in fighting arts).The punch consists on 2 consecutive hits in a fraction of a second in the same spot. He hits one pot (preferably the center of the target) with the firt joints of his fingers as he twists his entire body in the direction of the punch (To create more power). The first hit is kinda like a quake that goes through the entire body. The second one hit is like an explosion, It comes more powerfull and with the body already weakened, whatever recieves this attack feels like it's been torn appart from the inside.

This punch can even crack a rock in to tiny pieces, sending them everywhere as if it blew from the inside. This attack has very little effect on strong metals. On a person, they will just feel how the pain spreads throught their entire body.

It is still "unperfected," because Leon is still unable to make it work like it should. The punch just turns thigs to dust, not to tiny pieces(there are exceptions). And "unmastered" Becase he is still unable to use the punch anytime he wants. He has to be standing and relaxed, and can only do it with his right hand right now.


*Techniques:

He has no name for these, he just does them.

"Great fall"
A tricky one. For this, the opponent has to be weakened and on his knees. Once these coinditions are met, Leonidas runs to his oponent, uses their souldders to jump upwards (this motion causes the opponen to fall on the floor face up), he does a back somersault and lands on top of his foe whle landing a powerfull punch on his face.

"Wall crash"
Leonidas has to be facing the oponent with a wall behind him (Leon). Leonidas wil grab the oponent and will drag the foe along with his as he runs to the wall. Once he reaches it, He'll do an upward wall run, jump upwards, land on his foes shoulder and do a backward jump, wich will send the foe face first against the wall.

Once Leonidas lands, he will move forward as he spins, so that he ends up looking at his foe face to face while his between his opponent and the wall. He'll jusmp backwards (going to the wall) he'll jump above his oponent by pushing himsefl forward whit the wall and upward with his enemie's shoulders. Once he lands, he will hunch and step backwards with violent strenght. Making his oponent crash against the wall again.

*Appearance::
Fairly muscular and young. Now, e doesn't wear the same outfit al the time, but here is what he usually wears:

#1 Traveling style
He usually wears leather gauntlets, a belt and boots. He wears a brown tunic with high collar, the tunic barely passes his hips in the front and it reaches his knees on the back and he wears leggings. He also has a necklace with a metal plaque that is a bit worn of, and you can clearly see his name written there, and a message that says: “Keep going forward”. He also carries a small bag and a sheathe made of leather, with no designs on it, on the back of his belt; In the bag, he keeps money and other stuff of the type.

his greaves extend all the way to the knees with the top taking a circular form. They leather they have high quality for tying them on the legs.
Something noticeable about the silver designs that the greaves have is that they are horizontally made from the center to one side with a slight curvature. All the lines are on once side of the greave only. From the center to the left for the left leg greave and all the lines on the right side from the right leg greave.

#2 Chinese style
He wears black pants(The greaves are under his pants so they can't be seen), a balck leevless Mandarin shirt that has white buttons and edges (It is a bit tight in comparison to average mandarin shirts). The typical chinese martial artists shoes. He also has his hand covered in bandages from his elbow to the joints of his fingers (A la Rock Lee )


*Personality: Leonidas likes to fight since he finds it entertaining and good training. He doesn’t like to kill(Prove if that is that he rarely strikes with his sword. He usualy relies heavily on kicks, punches and counterattacks); he kills only when he thinks that the enemy is evil enough to deserve it. He tends to just fool around or mock at his enemies when they’re not a real threat or if they don't seem like one, but when he feels that the enemy is dangerous he’s completely careful and observative on how the enemy is capable of attacking and moving. During this ime, he also relies heavily on defensive techniques (Mostly from Aikido)

On daily life Leonidas is a bit of a slacker. He usually just takes it easy and travels around without much direction. Altought in constant training, he hardly does anything else during the day. He doesn’t speak much with people he meets for the first time, but once he get used to them he becomes very friendly and he’s usually kind to everyone.

Note: He is usally seen eating an apple. He like apples.

*Biography: Loenidas was born and raised in a city called Paxton. He comes from a renowned noble family of warriors, and he was expected to be a fierce warrior just like all of his brothers, but this did not happen. Leonidas spent most of his childhood training, so he didn’t make many friends, but that was ok but that was ok because he has never minded being alone.

It seems that tough he received the same training has his brothers; he wasn’t as good as any of them. In one occasion after failing to complete a simple training course, his family decided that he was a failure and got looked down by his parents and his brothers(OR that is what he felt). After feeling such a humiliation by part of his family he decided that in order to become a better warrior he had to travel and gain some real experience. His family did not oppose to this idea since they didn’t care anymore(Or so he thought. The truth is, that they thought it wouldbe good for him.). So he began traveling aimlessly in search of fights and fighting knowledge. With the hope of one day returning home and proving his family that he’s not a failure.

It has been 5 years since he started his travels. He still wants to become better, but even after he proves his family that he’s not useless, he intends to keep traveling because he finds it fun to travel and because he knows that while traveling he can protect those who are defenseless.

One of his main motivatons now is the strong people he's seen in the dome. Knowing there's much stronger people that the ones he's face so far, he now wants to become stronger not only for his family, but in onder to fight those people.

Re: Leonidas

Personality and appearance are hard to read. You might wanna break them into paragraphs and separate them. Aside from that, it seems good.

*Approved*
