[h1]PERIELLIS LEREON ALEXIUS[/h1]
91 years old
04/09/1114

Petriellis was originally a Mancini, one of the major powerhouse families in Wiz society, but he gave up that life in his early twenties. Known then as Valereon, he was selfish, self-centered and craved attention. Attention which sadly his parents, nor his family could provide. Being the 14th child out of 15 was difficult and left him as the recipient of many hand-me-downs, including his parent's love. It wasn't that they loved him any less than his other siblings, but after dealing with 13 children prior, they seemed to simply be going through the motions and not actually taking the time to care for him. Or atleast to Valereon that was what it felt like. It only got worse when one of his older brothers passed away in combat and all their attention was focused on mourning. For years Valereon resented his parents for not paying close enough attention and often acted out in hopes of regaining their focus. But the despair from loosing Valor had hit them hard and it only ever earned the attention of his older siblings who scolded him for being so insensitive during their time of need. When he was 16 his parents relieved that they were going to have another child, and when they started to regain some of their happiness back because of it, Valereon felt betrayed.

When his youngest brother Valcyon was born, Valereon had never felt so much anger towards another individual before. From the time he was born to when he was a child, Valereon aced out as much as ever, but in increasingly worse ways. He would cut his sibling's beautiful blonde hair, ruin their favorite clothes, and bully poor Valerio. But his family weren't the only victims of his bad behavior, but the rest of the town as well. He would sneak out at night and cause chaos in the streets, start fights he couldn't win and then threaten them with his family name until they backed down, and even stole from anyone dumb enough to fall into his traps. He even once threw a rock into his mother's potion shop and damaged alot of expensive potion bottles and cauldrons. His behavior got so bad that Valyn and Valiant sent him to stay with Valiant's family in the East for a while, in hopes that new surroundings would fix his behavior, but it did no such thing. When he returned, he had an even worse attitude than before, from believing that his parents had abandoned him and dropped out of school. He would come to move out of the house a few years later, but not before running away countless times, only to be found in the arms of strangers that were way too old for him.

Valereon's promiscuous nature steamed from his yearning to be loved and he was desperate enough that he would throw himself at anyone who looked at him twice. In his mind, if his family wouldn't love him he would find others who would. And sadly, because of his famous bloodline, there were many who leaped at the chance, but only because of the benefits they would receive in return. Countless people took care of him after he moved out of the Mancini manor at a young age, but once they found out that he refused any and all inheritance entitled to him, they dropped him as fast as they had picked him up. Valereon was in and out of the streets after cutting ties with his family and it came to the point where he almost died out there on his own. But by chance, or by fate, he met Petrios Sudlenkov, the young owner of the Candiland brothel, on the streets and was instantly attracted to him. Petrios, or better known as 'Peppa Jack', was everything Valereon wanted to be; rich, self-made, and more importantly, [i]loved[/i]. It was good fortune that Peppa was as equally interested in him, but more for his business than personal pleasures. It took very little persuasion for Peppa to recruit Valereon as a Candiland worker and before he knew it, he became an Eclair under the guise of Léreon.

His life as Léreon was much better than his life as a Mancini. He was getting paid and earning his own money, had peace and quiet, and more importantly, received all the attention he could ever ask for. Even though his Mancini genes had bypassed him in the hair department, his face was just as beautiful as any one of his siblings and there were patrons from all over lining up to have a night with him. He quickly become one of Peppa's favorites purely because the amount of cash he was bringing in to Candiland, and also because of the devotion Valereon felt towards him.

When the rebellion attacked, Valereon was hardly surprised. In fact, he was apart of it by the time Seraphion made his first public move. Granted he was only apart of the movement because Peppa Jack was, but even so, he would never pass on a chance to make his family pay for the grief they caused him. During the early days of the rebellion Valereon was idealistic. He believed that Seraphion would simply throw Belzeneff off the throne, maybe even throw him in prison, but he never actually counted on anyone [i]dying[/i]. The first tragedy came with the murder of his baby brother Valcyon only a few short months into the rebellion's first public attack. Sure he had hated the little brat, but disliking someone did not mean that he wanted them to [i]die[/i]. Valcyon was still his brother afterall. After that, Valereon was struck with tragedy after tragedy as more of his siblings and family members dropped dead. Maybe his biggest hit was the loss of his father, who had died trying to protect his family. Each time he heard of a family member's death he wanted to return home and disconnect himself from the rebellion, but each time, Peppa would manage to convince him to stay and continue his work in Candiland, which had become a Rebellion safehouse. Deep down Valereon felt terrible for not being with his family and hated himself with each passing day. 

By the time the Rebellion War came to a close, he was emotionally dead inside. Ten of his immediate family members had died during the bloody war, as well as two brothers who were MIA and an emotionally unstable mother. He was reunited with her when the war was over, but she was no longer the mother he once knew and Valereon couldn't bare to look at her anymore and left once more, knowing that the organization he was apart of had a major part in the deaths of his loved ones. He returned to Candiland and immersed himself in work to help him forget, but it didn't take a lot for those around him to notice that something was wrong. Eventually it started to bleed into his work and he would suffer from mental breakdowns every other day. With no other option, Peppa stepped in and took some drastic measures to bring him back to normal.

Well aware of Valereon's devotion to him, to the point where it could be considered worship, Peppa manipulated Valereon into completely cutting ties with his family. He gave him the ultimatum; either the Mancini's or Candiland. Many times during the Rebellion Peppa gave him the same choice and he always chose Candiland, but this time was different. Peppa threatened to completely cut ties with Valereon if he couldn't let go of his family, and in a sense, [i]abandon him[/i]. Abandonment was Valereon's worst fear, especially from someone he cared so much about, and the stress alone from the decision was enough to send him into another emotional breakdown. However, when he came out of it, he was a different person. Not wanting to hurt anymore, Valereon pushed back any feeling he had about his family and locked them away, deep within himself. No longer did he care about the Mancinis and started his life over as Léreon.

As a reward for choosing him, Peppa proposed marriage to him. Peppa had already married a year earlier, now under the name of Pericles Alexius, but polyamory, while uncommon, was not banned in Wiz, and Léreon instantly said yes. They were married in the year 1155 and he once again changed his name, this time to Perriellis Léreon Alexius. Now, for once in his life, he was truly happy. Candiland was striving, having flourished in the aftermath of the Rebellion War, he was free from the burden of worrying about his family, and he was finally married to the man he loved. But his life would not be perfect forever, because just a few short years later, Peppa married again. Perriellis could deal with Peppa first wife and their children, but adding more partners to their relationship made him feel like he was being forgotten again. Peppa was well aware of his co-dependency by now, and made a promise that any relationship after him was purely for business. And for a while, he believed that. 

That same year, Belladonna mysteriously passed away and Belisario returned from Hell to take over as King. He was surprised that out of all of his cousins, Belisario was the one crowned King. But Peppa was loyal to the new King, and by extension, Candiland was now loyal too.
