Personality: Leon is very down to Earth, and fun to be with. He has an obsession with a kangaroo rat named Ginger*, but other than that, he likes to mind his own business. He can be very out-spoken sometimes and definately puts up a fight for what he believes in.

History: Child - Leon was the runt of the litter when he was born, and also one of four children (of which, he was the only male). He grew up learning all sorts of things and idolizing the alpha male lion of the pride.

Pre-Teen - Leon learned the way of the land and excelled in things like hunting and protecting his family. He ended up learning to hate the alpha lion of his pride simply because he gave Leon's mother no respect, and slept around with all the females in the pride--including Leon's sisters. After that, Leon grew frustrated and got into a fight with the male lion, who soon thereafter banished him from the pride he had called home for so long.

Present - Now, Leon has formed a group known as the Big P.A.W.S., which consists of a few wild and large cats like himself. He dictates to the group, but certainly doesn't boss anyone around. He is looked up to as the leader and he considers his group of friends to be his new pride now. They often tease him about his new love interest--a kangaroo rat named Ginger*, but he doesn't seem to mind. He still despises male lions, and hopes to prove himself to be different from them and not categorized as one of them anymore, hence the blue mane and tail.
