Leo is twenty one years old, he's grown quite a bit over the years and finally isnt compared to a child anymore. One thing that hasnt changed though, is that on first impressions people still assume he is a year or so younger than his actual age, and of course, this still irritates him.
He has unusually pale skin, light brown hair and stunning ice blue eyes that some people say resemble his often cold personality, Leo doesnt agree.
He still loves to wear hoodies and likes to wear the colour blue whenever he can, but since clothing isnt exactly as easy to get as it was before, Leo will wear whatever he can get.
Personality
Much like before, Leo has major trust issues, but atleast he is better at hiding them now.
He prefers to work in groups since he knows that he is pretty stupid on his own -and he the last thing he wants is his stupidity being the cause of his death-, but he rarely ever trusts the people he's with.
He fears of being betrayed or being hurt by them, so mostly Leo will push people away so they'll never get the chance to do so, but will be nice enough so they dont leave him.
Sometimes Leo will act immature and childish, when this happens there is almost always an argument(and the occasional fight) between him and whoever is unlucky enough to have to deal with him acting like a little kid.
If you ask Leo about it though, his answer will always be that the other person started it and its not his fault.
Leo has also devoloped the habit of occasionally talking to himself...
Once you get to know the real Leo, you'll see that alongside all his annoying traits, that believe it or not there's semi-good ones.
He fights for the few things he truly cares about, when it comes to defending the very few people he thinks of as friends, he'd put his life on the line to keep them safe.
The amount of people he knows for sure that wont kill him is a rather small number, but then again Leo has never been easy to like, so its understandable.
Two people that Leo thinks of as friends are Alexander(Alex) Chase, and Aarti Grant, he's been traveling with them for quite a few years now, and he thinks of them more as family then anything.
Leo is often described of as a stubborn, annoying, short-tempered brat who has his head stuck in the past rather than the present.
One reason for this is because he has a hard time when it comes to leaving anyone behind whether he trusts or hates them.
Leo doesnt want the people(and zombies, since he believes that they're people too) who've died to be forgotten, so if he loses someone then he'll cling to the memory of them or fight for them... he has countless people remembered in that head of his...
He Fears: heights, death, and life or death situations
He Likes: pizza, video games(he hasnt played any in awhile..), and being able to save someones life
His Dislikes Are: not getting what he wants, losing, and having to kill someone
Weapons/Skills
Even though a lot of time has past since he was given it, Leo still has the knife that James had given him.
He can fight well with it now(its about time he finally learned how) but he rarely uses it. Instead, he just carries it around with him for no real reason.
He also has a double action revolver, but he tries not to use it unless he has to.
Leo seems to have lost his skill with mechanics, but he can still manage to fix basic machines.
History
Leo doesnt like to mention his past, he was a spoiled little rich kid who's parents died when he was nine and he was sent to live with his Aunt.
The cause of his parents deaths was due to the plane that they were on crashing, only twenty people lived, unfortunately neither Mr. or Mrs. Diaz was one of them.
Leo was completely unaware of this until he was thirteen, his Aunt had convinced him that his parents had simply left him and moved to a different country, she said that they couldnt stand him anymore and that they had to leave.
For four years Leo believed that his parents left him to live with his Aunt(she wasnt a very nice lady) and for four years he completely hated them.
When he found out the truth by finding a newspaper article that his Aunt had been hiding, Leo was more angry with himself then anything. Yes, he was outraged at his Aunt, but he felt ashamed that for years he had blamed his parents for leaving him when in reality their lives had come to an end.
Even though he used to be angry with them, Leo has kept the last letter his parents sent him, its contents saying they would be home earlier than planned.
Leo keeps this letter in his pocket, along with a small family picture of the three of them.
When the zombie disease started to spread and his Aunt got infected, Leo had stabbed her in the heart while trying to save his friend James.
After that, Leo seemed to forgive his Aunt for what she had done in the past, but that is most likely only because she was the last relative that he knew of and he had killed her, so trying to make up for that, he had forgiven her.
When Highgate was destroyed, Leo fled with a few other survivors but later was split up from the group... he occasionally thinks about them and hopes that they are all still alive, but Leo doesnt waste time getting his hopes up.
Now he is traveling with Alex and Aarti, but he is unsure what future lies ahead for him.
