[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Occupation[/color]				 																																[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent]Anti-Vampire Vampire Hunter for The Order, but since everyone needs some kind of day job, he also works the piers.[/indent]
[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Loyalty[/color]       				 																																[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent]By his law, Leone is loyal to The Order, though he frequently tests Khione's patience with him by going off on his own and favoring his own self-interests from time to time.[/indent]
[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Aspirations[/color]				 																																[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent]To put it quite simply: Leone wants to rid this world of all vampires and anything that shares their blood and ideologies. Whether you're a vampire supporter, a half-breed, or a full-blooded one, you will be on his list of things to kill. No one should ever support them. All shall be eradicated from this world and Leone intends to contribute to that as much as he can.[/indent]
[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Philosophy[/color]				 																																[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent]"It's killing business and business is good."[/indent]
[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Fears[/color]        				 																																 
[/u][/b][/sub] 

[indent]"What are my fears? You're joking, right? I fear nothing, not a man, woman, child, or anything in this world. I am invincible! If you think a man like me should ever fear anything, then I beg you to come at me so I can give you something to fear!"[/indent]

[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Appearance[/color]				 																																[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent]Leone is a fit black man with short hair, brown eyes, and features that always make the ladies swoon. Yes, okay he knows that he's good looking and doesn't take cautionary measures to hide it either. Standing tall at six feet and weighing over two-hundred pounds, it goes without saying that Leone is built like a chisled stone. Rock-hard abs for days, a cheeky grin when feeling chipper and a laugh when feeling like he wants to tease someone. His body is mostly without hair except for his face. He takes pride in having a smooth body and might take extra time in the bathroom to ensure it is kept that way.

When it comes to what he chooses to wear, Leone has three modes: casual, work, and formal. For casual, he wears comfortable fabrics and usually keeps himself covered with some kind of shirt and jeans. Or if it's not that combo, windbreaker shorts and some kind of sports jersey because, yes, he is a walking stereotype and it doesn't bother him one bit. Work-wise, you won't catch him wearing anything flashy. His style of fighting is roughly stealth-based, so he doesn't wear anything that will bring him unwanted attention. Dark colors work for when he hunts at night, which he definitely does. For formal gatherings or more exclusive events, some form of a three-piece suit is seen with the appropriate cufflinks and shoes. He is also a black-tie kind of guy. Suit wise, he does like himself something flashy. If he's gonna shell out his hard-owned money on a suit or two, might as well pay a few extra bucks for the best money can buy.[/indent]

[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Personality[/color]				 																																[/u][/b][/sub]

[center][b][sub][/sub][/b][/center]
[indent]From first impressions alone and not digging that deep into him, Leone appears to be just like every New Yorker. His smile is a bit too wide, his attitude just with the right amount of aggression and down-to-earthiness. He appears to be gentle just a bit and with enough edge to balance him and prevent him from being too much of a dick, which his first impression could come across as that if rubbed the wrong way. He will also appear to care about those who try talking to him. It's the most he could bring himself to do. 

Yes, all of this sounds wonderful. And it would be nice to see if it were actually really him. The thing about Leone is he isn't how he appears to just everyday people. What they might see from the smile to his charming wit is all an act. The [i]real[/i] Leone Deveraux is a hateful, arrogant man who has one true love: killing anything supernatural but specifically, he enjoys killing vampires. When their bodies disintegrate into ash, he is overcome with an undoubtable energy where it could make him look like a deranged killer or just someone who enjoys the death of another person a bit too much. Truth be told, Leone is a bit unhinged in that way. It mostly is kept under wraps, but when faced with a kill of a vampire, he can't keep it inside. He must let out that primal scream similar to how a man might act after taking a heavy bump of crystal meth.

Killing has really been the only thing he's known and as a result, there's not much about him that's favorable among his fellow man other than his mutual hatred for the supernatural. Yes, he could be charming and funny and maybe even flirt a little bit. He has been known to go a little wild after a good hunt. He might fuck around with his fellow hunters a bit by pranking them harshly or actually taking them into the nearest room. Who knows really, but even someone like The Lunatic Hunter needs to let loose on his fellow human every once in a while, but he is severely picky about who he takes into a bedroom.

[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]History[/color]				 																																 	[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent]Leone, born to the name Napoleon Marcel Deveraux, was indeed born into a strange family. Or well, it was strange to him because there was a lot of weird things happening that would otherwise raise a lot of eyebrows. For whatever reason, there seemed to be nothing but normalcy when it came to his family. He was born to a family of ten members: his father, Xavier and his mother, Dominique, and nine older siblings: Simone, Sonia, Sandra, Sally, Lester, Larry, Luthor, Luke, and then you have the youngest, Leone. All of his siblings are at least three years apart, which the oldest being nearly thirty years older than him, but he would never get to know them past the age of ten.

On a tragic night that Leone is still haunted by to this very day, he lost his entire family. At only ten years old, he was frightened when a pack of vampires came into his home and slaughtered his siblings, feeding upon their flesh with nothing left but their rotting corpse. Leone, who could barely defend himself, did the only thing he thought he should do at the time: hide in the vampire-proofed celler. He hid there for days until he forced himself out from pure hunger. When he left, the first thing he caught his attention was the instant, putrid scent of nine decaying corpses. He had to cover his mouth with his shirt to just navigate it. Though he was hungry and weak from exhaustion, young Leone had to get out of his family compound. 

And so he ran. He didn't just run from the house to get fresh air but he ran away. And at some point within only three months of being on the run, Leone was found by someone claiming to know his family. More importantly, this person told little Leo about how his family -- and Leone by blood -- belonged to an organization simply called The Order. He didn't know what to make of it at first, but the person who approached him was friendly enough, so he went with this person. It was in the following ten years, he went under a literal hell. From experiments to army-level training, Leone, along with so many others like him, were pushed to their absolute limits, physical or otherwise.

When it was all said and done, Leone came out of it a new man. He came out of the torture he was put through as a trained killer. Throughout his entire ordeal, Leone never lost sight of what he promised himself every night...

"I will kill every vampire that walks this world!"

And since officially "graduating" whatever fucked up school/academy system he was sent to, he has lived up to this philosophy. Every contract he received, whether with a partner and officially sanctioned by The Order or on his own, Leone made sure to not waste a single kill and he made sure to savor each one. It wouldn't take long for anyone to notice that something was seriously deranged with the self-titled "Lunatic Hunter" of The Order. He enjoyed killing vampires so much that he actually liked it when they begged for mercy. His hatred for them would soon become something worthy of conversation. Or at least, that's what the paranoia inside Leone thought it would be. He knew he had problems losing it when it came to killing the nightcrawling bloodsuckers. But the way he always saw it was one less vampire alive meant one less life taken.

As one might assume, eventually his side missions became a problem and he soon found himself on thin ice a few times. Despite being able to sweet talk his way out of it, especially in more recent times, Leone knew he had to take it easy. He tried to limit his kills to official contracts and not ones he took for his own pleasure. To offset this, he turned to indulging in other pleasures that he actually enjoyed. He liked working by the piers of New York, gambling, and, of course, sex. He was definitely one to brag, but to save certain people the embarrassment, he never named names.

Yes, Leone Deveraux tried his best to keep his hatred in check, but sometimes it didn't always go according to plan. Sometimes to keep the beast in check, it has to taste blood so it does not go past the point of no return.[/indent]

[sub][b][u][color=cc5500]Skills[/color]				 																																 	[/u][/b][/sub]

[indent][color=cc5500][b]Trained to Kill[/b][/color]
[indent]Leone was trained since an early age in a variety of fighting styles and been given knowledge pertaining to mythology and weaknesses of the supernatural. Some might be myths but others are very real. His main focus, given the landscape of some parts of the world, was how to deal with vampires effectively. He knows when to strike, how to deliver that strike, and what to use to deliver the final blow.[/indent]

[b][color=cc5500]Enhanced Body[/color][/b] 
[indent]Through his genetically-enhanced body ala the vampire blood injections, over time it has made him faster, stronger, and, should he want to, even more vicious in his killings. He is normally a sadistic hunter, but there comes a time where his eyes will turn blood red and he enters a form of a bloodlust rage where the only thing he can see is his darkest desires to kill every vampire (good or bad) in his sight. In this state, though his better judgment is gone, he is faster and stronger than he normally would be. His body moves with grace and agility, his fighting capabilities are increased, and how aggressive he gets only increases the more he kills. This, however, will only last for a few minutes. Should he want it to last longer, he would need to intake more vampire blood, which is not something he would do willingly unless he didn't have any other choice.[/indent] 

[color=cc5500][b]Athletically Gifted (non supernatural ability)[/b][/color]
[indent]when you push aside the enhanced capabilities and strip away the killing techniques, Leone also demonstrates a natural ability to be limber. Granted, he isn't the most fluid in the totally flashy jumps and flips that most might see on shows like Ninja Warrior, but he is able to jump far and high, gain some incredible speeds on foot, and, though this is purely in his own mind, he looks great doing it, too.[/indent]

[color=cc5500][b]A Charming Manipulator[/b][/color]
[indent]If there's one thing to be said about Leone's non-fighting abilities, it's his way to get himself out of sticky situations (for the most part). As a gambling man, he does try and press his luck. Fortune is almost always in his favor. If he's in trouble with some within The Order, he'll attempt to sweet talk his way out of it, but it doesn't always work in his favor. There have been times where he has to sleep in the bed he made for himself. But just let it be known he can squeeze his way out of situations should he feel the need to.[/indent]

[b][color=cc5500]Cooking and Baking[/color][/b]
[indent]Okay, this might be a hobby but, hey! Who doesn't love a guy who can cook? Leone enjoys cooking and he's been told it's one of his better qualities. He has most techniques down and can make almost anything from whatever he has to deal with. He also, through his enhanced body, a higher sense of smell than most breeds of bloodhounds do. As a result, he can tell when something might be artificial and when it's all natural. 

Side note: Leone only cooks with natural ingredients. If you're going to eat, might as well be the good stuff.[/indent]
