While he often does exercises to keep his energy on stage, he doesn't have any muscles in his body. His skin complexion is a medium clear tone since he's not white but his skin doesn't reach brown. His hair is originally chestnut colored and his eyes are sky blue. However, to create a different presence as an idol, his hair was painted blue and he started using orange-colored contact lenses, in order to create a calling and unique image on stage. [b]Clothing:[/b] Publically, Alear/Leon uses medium-sleeved shirts, preferably gray or red ones with some tribal stamp, a custom-made black leather jacket with a heart stamped on the front pocket, white-colored jeans with a red belt, and black boots. For accessories, he uses a single earring in his left ear and a custom-made stone bracelet on his right hand. When he's alone or with close friends, he uses pretty basic-colored t-shirts, sometimes deviating to ones with rainbow stamps or even tie-dyes, basic-colored sweatpants, and blue sneakers. Outside of glasses that are prescribed to him, he doesn't use accessories when he's in "casual mode". [hr] [h3][color=8882be]Personal Information[/color][/h3] [b]Personalities:[/b] [hider=As Alear] [b][center][color=8882be]Charismatic[/color] | [color=8882be]Extroverted[/color] | [color=8882be]Talkative[/color] | [color=8882be]Bubbly[/color][/center][/b] Whenever he's being Alear Alstromeria, his idol persona, he becomes an overly charismatic person which makes him the party-lover of the group. Alear brims with charisma, happiness, and cheerfulness, enough to make even the dimmest of rooms shine brightly as if they were looking at the sun itself. This is the part that conquered most of Alear's fans since he's a friendly and easily approachable person who talks with you as if he was a "best friend" or something. He's often nicknamed the "Childhood Idol" because of this factor. His industry colleagues also regard Alear as someone who's right at their side to help them achieve their dreams and improve them to the next level, and his team says that he's a pretty gentle and fun "boss" to work with. They add quotation marks around the word because he talks with them not as if he's ordering them around, but asking for favors, as well as actually wanting to know more about them and coordinating everyone to work together as a team. Alear's biggest problem, however, is that he's extremely talkative and can go on for hours and hours talking about anything. He doesn't know how to keep conversations short and brief, which often makes him lose time to do work or practice because of his chatty nature. Not many people really mind that at all but some exceptions have already complained about how he seems rather unfocused and distracted because of his chatty nature.

Well, not totally. While he still keeps the charisma he's known to have as an idol, Leon isn't too much of a talkative and energetic person. Rather, his voice and words come out as a really calm and quiet person, unfitting to Alear's persona. He isn't shy or reserved but doesn't find the idea of talking for hours interesting nor does he find it necessary to have an overly energetic approach, so he comes more as a very kind and gentle young man than some extroverted idol. Leon also tends to be far more direct and wastes less time going to the point and prefers people going directly to the point. Instead of going around in circles to reach a point, he goes directly to the business in order to resolve everything fast. This might make him come out as cold and uninterested since Leon isn't one for detailed stories when it only takes a single sentence to understand the situation. People close to Leon also know that, despite being an idol, he doesn't live the style of a famous signer outside of the stage and keeps himself to a simplistic and, most notably, nerdy way of life. Leon loves to play games, read books and manga, watch series, movies, and anime at home and loves to listen to more chill rhythms than the agitated ones he works with. He's also not fond of shows, concerts, and parties, and would rather prefer a more casual outing such as a park or a stay-at-home outing at a friend's house. One thing that only the closest people, like his manager, family, and a selected number of friends, know about Leon is that he has already declared to somewhat hate how he works as Alear. Not the job itself but the persona, because it doesn't fit with him at all. He does it because of his level of professionalism, though has already asked his superiors if he could do a change of style more than once, only to receive various "no" along the route. This is also why Leon doesn't like talking too much about Alear when he's not Alear and doesn't enjoy when people treat him as Alear when he's not working.

He is the only child of Otávio Forte, a known and popular director in Hollywood and responsible for some of the biggest hits in the cinema, music, and theater areas, and Michelle Hellenia, a retired actress and current CEO of Royale Inc., one of the biggest entertainment agencies in the United States. While his image is rather unknown to the public, he's also famous. Leon is a pop rock idol known as Alear Alstroemeria, a hit with teenagers and young adults. Being born into such a family, one could state that Leon had a perfect childhood, filled with fun, riches, and joy, enviable by many. However, that couldn't be further from the truth. Even if he was a child, Leon was already introduced to the world of arts, without any freedom of speech or right to choose his future, having those stripped away from him by Michelle. As for Otávio, because of his schedule, he hasn't been too present in Leon's childhood, to the point where Leon's memories are truly vague regarding his father's presence in his life. After some practicing in the various forms of art, Leon's talent was singing. Many of his teachers called his voice "angelical" so Michelle saw the opportunity to make him a superstar idol through her agency. However, even though he was her son, her stipulations to join the company, as well as the regulations toward child labor, made it pretty difficult for her to just put him as a child star from the very beginning. As such, he escaped from having to work and focused on his education. Initially, Leon went to prestigious schools in the state, being able to interact with classmates, teachers, and other people. However, that was detrimental to Michelle's plans since he wasn't having too much training because of school. With her son's success in mind (as well as the money that she could receive from it), Michelle took Leon to homeschool and private tutoring, so she could also control his schedule and have Leon train his voice more and more. This made Leon very frustrated because he lost contact with all of his friends out of nowhere, and was separated from the outside world as if he was just a pet that his mom was training. Once he had enough age to start, she immediately applied Leon to work as an idol when he started "high school". Still homeschooled, Leon was already facing the world of idols as a teenager, inexperienced on how he should do it. Michelle decided from the get-go that Leon would play pop-rock music, as it was a trendy style with teenagers and not too explored by too many other companies. She also created a new idol identity for Leon: Alear Alstroemeria. Thus, he not only had to sing music but also had to act entirely differently from his usual self, in order to create a popular idol for the world. All of his protests, however, were in vain. Time passed and Alear became a popular hit, breaking numbers and records as a teenager's beloved pop-rock idol. As he reached adulthood, Leon decided to live independently, buying an apartment for him to live solo, in hopes to free himself from his mother's control. However, that wasn't possible since she kept her eyes on him through his managers and habitually blasted his phone with messages, wanting him to keep working on his career. With the change of managers for the 7th time, he actually got his aunt Eleanora Hellenia, Michelle's twin sister, as his manager. Seeing her nephew overworked and losing his mind, Eleanora decided to step in and control the relations between him and her sister/boss, as to give the boy some space to breathe and rest. This led to them developing a healthier relationship as a family, something Leon never had with either his mother or his father. When he completed 23 years old, Leon's powers began to appear. One day, during a routine practice, Leon was so tired that he wished to escape from the training and just go home. Suddenly, as he was dancing, he blinked. In one moment he was in the training room, and in the other, he was outside the building. Not knowing what exactly happened, he rushed back inside and went back into the room, where everyone was panicked about what happened and he was unable to explain it himself. They decided to call it a day and he went home early, as he wished. In the following months, he began to understand what was happening. Out of nowhere, he suddenly gained the power to teleport. He initially found it convenient, but the problems started when he decided to abuse it and got sick and dizzy from the teleportation's vertigo. Naturally, with his tight schedule, he wasn't able to train his powers to master them, so Leon had to put them aside and just act normally. Though, on some occasions, he did use them out of laziness. When he completed 24 years old, Leon (as Alear) announced that he was going to take a break from showbiz in order to properly rest. In character. he explained that he needed some time to gather his thoughts back together and return to his creative mind. This ensured a huge fight between him and his mother, as she didn't accept that he was stopping. That's when Leon finally lost it and said that either he took a break right now or he was quitting forever. Michelle saw her son snapping and Eleanora even backed him up. In a two-against-one argument, she backed off and just didn't say anything anymore. Now on break, Leon receives a mysterious letter from someone called "the Benefactor", inviting him to 666 Mystic Lane, North Reading, MA. With nothing better to do, and wanting to escape from his family, he didn't think twice and set himself to this new adventure. [hr] [h3][color=8882be]Equiment and Magic Powers[/color][/h3] [b]Equipment:[/b] [list] [*] A suitcase containing A LOT of clothes and underwear (as if he was going on a 3-month trip); [*] A backpack with other stuff, such as his toothbrush, charger, etc. [*] His iPhone 14 Pro Max; [*] A Nintendo Switch (his favorite videogame); [*] A bag full of novels and manga for him to read. [/list] [b]Magic:[/b] Leon/Alear's magic grants him the power to teleport, which he has self-proclaimed his magic as [i][b][color=8882be]Trickster Act[/color][/b][/i]. Its main ability is to allow Leon/Alear to teleport himself and any person and/or object he's currently holding. Currently, this is the only functionality of his power, as there is no extra ability developed since Leon/Alear hasn't fully trained his power. It's also a Basic Level teleportation magic since Leon/Alear can only teleport himself to a short distance of a maximum of 30m and can only teleport himself and one person and a maximum of three objects, two if he's carrying someone. But as stated before, Trickster Act is still very basic and limited. For starters, Leon/Alear cannot independently teleport people or objects without teleporting himself alongside them. This means that he cannot use this as an emergency save unless he goes toward the objective and then teleports himself with it. There's also the fact that he must be physically touching said person or objects in order to teleport. If he isn't holding whatever he needs to teleport with him, he'll just go alone and the object will just stay there. This also means that he'll teleport anyone that's physically attacking him if he decides to use his power at that exact moment of being hit. He's also incapable of teleporting too many times in a row without feeling vertigo from the teleportation physics. If Leon/Alear teleports more than twice in a span of 30s, he's going to feel sick and dizzy from teleporting around too much and will lose his own ground, becoming very vulnerable to attacks. This vertigo also affects other people, so he also has to take into consideration that whoever's with him will feel the teleportation's vertigo, causing sickness depending on the person using it. Trickster Act also doesn't cancel physics. If Leon/Alear warps during a hit or while in movement, he'll reappear moving in the direction he's going or being sent. As an example, if he's sent toward a tree and teleports to avoid hitting the tree, he can avoid it but will reappear still being launched forward. This is extremely risky depending on the situation because he can hit something else or even fall into other places such as a river, a manhole, a pit, etc. Lastly, Leon/Alear's teleportation magic can be entirely unpredictable sometimes and he might end up teleporting himself in the opposite direction than the one he wanted, or to a random direction he doesn't exactly pick. This is a problem that can be solved with training, but Leon/Alear hasn't trained long enough to do it.
