Name location: On the ouside of her right upper arm going down vertically between the shoulder and the elbow. Leia does not hide her name, often leaving it in plain sight.

Other: She prefers dark clothing, often wearing shorts or pants and a tank top shirt and has 3 ear piercings on each ear. She can also surpress her 'sound' or 'ring' to the point where it's vertially not there, and will only make it noticably audible if she is in a battle, or if it's absolutely nessecary.



Personality: Leia can usually be seen as open and friendly, and will openly flirt with almost anyone, no matter their sex, just for the fun of it or to simply mess with their heads. She always has a ready smile and laugh for everyone, even the serious individuals. But while she’s being upbeat, Leia is observant of everything she sees and hears; believing that even the smallest, most insignificant thing could be useful in the future, and uses her bar as a main source of information. She likes to know as much as she can about everything, and because of her background, she is fluent in Italian, French, English, and Japanese. She knows some German, but only the few words that Kyros will use now and again. She can be very stubborn, when she wants to be, and will usually refuse to give up, even if her hand is forced.


However, because of her strict traditional training, she knows when to be serious, and has been known to be manipulative in nature. She is confidant in herself and is known to be sadistic in nature when battling. Leia carries high expectations for herself, refusing to make mistakes of any kind.

Sexuality: Bi

Background: Nothing lasts forever. That was the lesson Leia learned the hard way when her life came crashing down around her the night a drunk driver took her parents away from her when she was four. Taken from her home in the small town of Aosta, Italy, she was sent to live with her next closest relative who resided in the States. No matter how well behaved she was, she could never manage to stay with a family longer then a few months, and was continuously passed from one relative to another for the next three years. No one wanted to take in an orphaned eight year old girl with nine letters ‘tattooed’ into her arm.

“It’s a sign that she’ll be trouble later on.”

Just when she thought it hopeless, she was the brought to her Mother’s half sister’s family in a small town in France when she was 8. Her Aunt, who was so drastically different then all her other relatives, welcomed her with open arms. Along with her aunt and uncle was her cousin; Kuji. She grew very close to her cousin, to the point where she began to see Kuji more as a brother, despite him being six years her senior. After spending two years with them, Leia finally felt that she had finally found a place that she could call home.

Fate however, decided to once again teach her the lesson that she had learned so long ago. Leia was forced to leave the place she called home at the age of 10 when her ears and innocence were taken from her; throwing her once again at the mercy of her relatives.

She was then sent to Japan to live with her Father’s step-brother. It was through him that she finally found out what the inked letters on her arm meant. Her uncle told her about the world of Sacrifices and fighters, explaining that she now was part of a unit. He sent her to Seven Moons, in hopes that she might become the fighter that was expected of his family’s name. With high expectations placed upon her, Leia excelled quickly. She took her elders’ complements in stride, and only pushed herself further in hopes to grow strong enough to someday properly protect her eventual sacrifice; refusing to stay as the weak and powerless girl she had been in her youth.

It was at Seven Moons where she met Kyros Tanaki. Most students were either afraid of the man, or simply thought he perceived himself to be above them all, thus hating him. It was because of these words and feelings that she decided to befriend him, no matter what. Since Kyros didn’t have a fighter, Leia often stepped up as his temporary, since none of the blanks at school wanted to be with him for the practice battles. It was after their first battle that Kyros decided to train Leia himself, giving her the strict training that most aristocratically fighters received. It didn’t take long for Leia to realize that Kyros Tanaki kept many secrets, and she had an urge to find out what they were. Because of this, Kyros began to teach her how to gather information, using himself as the target. After three years, and finding many little details about the man along the way, Leia finally stumbled across the secrets she had been desperate to discover. It was two months later that she and Kyros graduated from Seven Moons.

Needing to have an inlet for information, she opened a small bar called Final Haven. Instead of hiding her true name from view, she instead leaves it in plain sight, saying that it’s simply an “old tattoo” if outsiders were to ask. As for the sacrifices and fighters that come in from time to time, Leia suppresses her ‘ring’ to the point where it’s vertically not there. Leia is still in contact with the headmaster, Ritsu, often working as his informant should he ever need her. She keeps in contact with Kyros for pretty much the same reason aside from the fact that he is one of the few people she would actually call "friend". Even now that he has his fighter, she will still aid Kyros is any way she can.

She has yet to find her sacrifice and lives in the small flat located on the floor above her bar.
