Leo Eridanus

Good morning, new Wayfarers! I look forward to your exploits on today's Quests, and tomorrow's! You may all refer to me as "General Cassiopeia". (…Though if we're close, you can also call me Leo..)

Birth Date	Prism 6, 1203

Leo Eridanus, colloquially known as General Cassiopeia, is a member of Eversun's Adventurers Guild, and specifically, a member of its Wayfarer's Division. He is known for his slightly formal mannerisms, idealistic outlooks on life, and a strong desire to see the world become a better place. Their main weapon is the Starweaver, a sword forged by their parental figure, Bianca. They are also the leader of an unexistent group known as the Silver Comet Corps, a group which, according to Leo's vision, is meant to be a group that fights for the safety of Everaun. But alas, they lack the funding and documentation to make it a real thing.

Personality

Leo is… a good guy. A naive guy. Well— if a bit awkward sure; she is idealistic, brave and loves to see the good side of things, as she believes that even when the times are critically dire, there is always a "positive" outcome, even if bittersweet. It's perhaps this aspect of her being, alongside her social incapacity, that leads to others finding her to be a nuisance of sorts, but it's definitely the idealism. And speaking of socializing…

Leo tends to speak in a friendly, if semi-formal manner, most of the time referring to new Wayfarers as "Rookies" and mentioning the hours of the day in 24 hour time rather than 12 hour times. Overall, they present themselves as a rather extroverted person. But it's mostly a front to show themselves as someone who's more "reliable" and "less fragile", which unfortunately involves bottling up their emotions and results in them being surprisingly bashful, awkward and insecure when it comes to more casual or direct social events.

Biography

Leo Eridanus was raised in Alhena Village, a village located southeast from Eversun City. As a child, his biggest aspiration was to become a successful Wayfarer; doing quests and helping others to make the world a better place, aspirations that his friend Florenza found "too childish" and "impractical". Most of their childhood was spent at Quester's Adventure Shack, and the fields surrounding Alhena Village.

Upon celebrating their 17th birthday, Bianca had forged an unique sword for Leo, the Starweaver, a blade with a peculiar slot for what seemed to be bullet-like objects, but Leo wouldn't figure that out until arriving at the Hearth years later. Unfortunately, 4 years later, the peace surrounding Leo's life would come to an end as a wave of Corruption would sweep Alhena, taking Bianca along with the rest of the villagers. Defenseless, and frequently urged by Florenza, Leo had no choice but to run away from the place she once called home.

Life at the Guild

Leo's life at the guild isn't really "super grand", but she likes it nonetheless, she spends most of her time Questing alongside the newer Wayfarers, asisting them in combat, and giving them the morale they need to keep going. Events in their past had led them to revile the Chaotic Elements due to the chaos they've caused in their hometown. But Leo doesn't linger on it much.

Trivia

• Leo wears gloves and styles their hair in a way that hides their right eye almost all the time, sometimes they won't wear a left glove, but the right glove and eye-covering hair bangs stay. While the gloves may be understandable by many, still many wonder why they have an insistence in keeping their right hand and eye hidden.

• Leo has an ammunitions belt that holds the Essence bullets that fuel their signature weapon, the Starweaver. In reality whoever, they do not carry this 24/7, and it's mostly worn during missions. In the chance that Leo DOES neeed to fight and does not wear this, there is always at least ONE bullet loaded into the Starweaver, it almost always bears the element of Ice.

• She can be considered a superfan of Quester's Adventure Shack! She's done almost every quest and questline possible between the times she's been there. Though she seems to be missing just one, sometimes she can be seen pondering about it in her guild quarters, where she has a corkboard filled to the brim with the quests she's done in the past. Although due to Quester's infamous reputation, the chances of Leo bringing this type of information up in a normal conversation are very slim.
• Leo Eridanus is a student at Eisen Grimm's… er… MATH class. And a rather interesting student at that, to put it lightly.
• One of Leo's favorite books is “Queen of Hearts & (and) White Diamond”, a girls' love fantasy romance novel that is 28 volumes long… and surprisingly suggestively charged, if not bordering (and crossing) on "spicy", for lack of a better word.
• One of his favorite board games is Chess! She is surprisingly comptetent, if not, advanced, at the game, but she finds it hard to find people to play with. To be fair… Chess isn't the most exciting game.
• General Cassiopeia (Leo Eridanus) is represented by the "🌠" comet emoji, it represents not only his affinity amd admiration for the celestial bodies, but it is also the shape of the insignia in his shoulder cape and cap.

Relationships

I'll be very slowly adding things into this page as relationships are thought up and materialized! If you have any ideas, please let me know and we can like, talk em' out!

Hanzekihel Oulieus

He's a mystery, but it seems like he's a big figure given how many people know about, or refer to him- he's an interesting person! I wonder if Vriella is okay?

Leo finds Hanze to be a rather interesting person, despite how adamant the guy may be at times, Leo somehow still has it in him to yap at him about stuff. The disparity in their heights seems to amuse him and he wishes to be as "confident" as Hanze at times.

Ari Lancaster

I… I can't find it in me to speak in such manner about said topic… sorry!!

(Ari helps them deal with their 'urges', such feelings that are usually repressed in favor of questing and helping others. Leo is not usually open to speaking about such things, but Ari seems to he one of the few people he can be open about it to.)

Keldwyn Flannery

She tries, she's a cool person, and… most importantly, she's VERY skilled at seafaring, but… TEACHING CHILDREN HOW TO USE A FLINTLOCK IS A BIG NO!

At first, Leo thought Kel was a pirate that genuinely wanted to sneak in onto the Hearth and pillage it, but after being sent on a Trade Division mission where he had to accompany her, he grew somewhat fond of the half-elf Kindred pirate, enjoying her company and rather boisterous personality. However, he still holds some disdain toward Keldwyn due to her teaching the children of the orphanage how to operate a Flintlock.

Eisen Grimm

Professor Grimes is such a hardworking person, I'm glad to have such a teacher as him! Even if he can be kind of… "mean", and "strict", I'm sure he means well…!! I just wish he could take a breather…

As one of his students, Leo finds Grimes to be a rather intimidating person, with his rigid, calculating manner of speech and strict, somewhat punishing curriculum. But Leo wholeheartedly believes he is overworked, and that Grimes needs some light on his life. They believe that they can make Grimes smile. Even if just once…

Liesbeth-Johanne Angefort CCXIX

They're such a valuable healer to be alongside with but… they're a bit overbearing… D-DON'T tell them I said that!! Liesbeth w-won't be happy…!!

One of, if not, probably Leo's most-frequent questing partner, leo knows that she is madly in love with him, but he is partly oblivious to her advances. And while he enjoys her presence, he genuinely finds her constant pampering and gifting to be a bit overwhelming.

Morganite

She's a rather fun person to be around with! I know people see me as "cute" but… u-um… being her model for clothes is… a step too far for me… I'm j-just not— really used to it.

She finds her to be a very funny person, but greatly admires her passion for fashion and the work she does at the Creative Commons division of the Hearth, sometimes she's shocked that Mona joins Wayfaring quests. But is admittedly bashful about being her model for clothes and outfit design.

Monica Holst

Her battle style is amazing… the way she flourishes her scythe has some swift, energetic flair to it. And Ms. Holst is very expressive too! But… please, please don't lose your way to it, Ms. Holst…

They have some nice relations with the feline Kindred, acknowledging that both happened to be introverted individuals. They enjoy going on quests with them. Leo has seen her use Whimsy exactly once— while they have some reserved thoughts, they dread the worse, which fuels their desire to protect her (and others) further.
