he is a lot like his video game counterpart. he grew up in an orphanage and the kid that was like his 'older bro' fig ended up getting killed from being involved in some petty crime. the cops at the scene were extremely negligent, hence why leon grew up and decided to be a cop instead so he could actually help people and make a change. he has a very hard time opening up to anyone because he feels like every time he gets attached to someone, they end up abandoning him later on in some way or another; he is very no nonsense and cynical, stubborn and headstrong and honestly needs to live a little.
