Personality

He is larger than most, but is generally allot more caring. He isn't afraid of a confrontation, but always stays by his ground when he believes his purpose is true. He always helps out those smaller than him, and always puts others before himself. He is a bold person, but can be rather slow in the head. He can be as strong minded as he is physically though, as once he puts his mind to something which he believes is for the greater good, it will be done.

History

Leonid was born on Argus, and lived there for close to 1,800 years. He was a larger framed Eredar, and a couple of inches taller than most, and was quite strong. He and his family escaped with the rest of the Eredar. He mainly lived among the ship they had escaped upon, along with the rest of the Eredar, travelling from planet to planet, each time having to flee from the Burning Legion.

He began training, and spent his life as one of the on-board guards, usually escorting civilians and protecting various points along the ship during landings, and willingly protecting the Draenei from the Burning Legion. He was awarded for his for his actions of courage during this period, and eventually was promoted to higher rankings. He was looked up to by many of the Draenei, friends and family alike, and became well known among them. They had travelled for a while until finally they reached Draenor, which seemed like a sanctuary to them, as they were still cautious of being discovered by Talgath. Leonid was one of the first to set foot onto this planet, and helped solidify a truce between them and the Orcs. He lived here for many years, becoming close with the Orcs, as were the other Exiled Ones. Leonid then later retired from his position, and forwarded his goals towards family, and to settle down and live a normal life.

After Kil'jaeden found Draenor, and corrupted the Orcs, the Draenei fled, and were close to being wiped off of their new home. Leonid was re-commissioned back into his old position, and ordered to lead one of the remaining populace of the Exiled Ones to a safer location. He and his survivors, stumbled across nightmarish mutations of their past friends, Lesser Forms, Exiled Ones who had been corrupted by the vast amounts of fel energy the Orcs were using. The war between the two races lasted close to a decade, and there were scarce amounts of Draenei left. Leonid was commandeered as one of the leading forces to attack the recent appearance of the Blood Elf's at The Tempest Keep. Many Draenei was lost, but in all struggle, they managed to capture The Exodar.

Shortly after their attempt to planeshift, they had realised the ‘engine' was sabotaged, which sent them spiralling through the twisted nether, before hurtling down towards Azeroth. During the descent, a small portion of the ship distorted from the velocity, and tore open along the ship. Leonid was one of the officers on the platform, and was sucked out, smashing his head against a large piece of framework from the ship, wiping the majority of his memory, and only leaving traces of his most basic memories, such as his name and native language. He hurtled towards the sea, with the armour being stripped from him from the air resistance and impact with the water, not far offshore from Dakshore. He was rescued by a passing boat, which took him to the Kaldorei who populated a nearby inn, but were extremely wary of the new alien they had come across. They eventually agreed to heal and let him rest, as it would be against their moral code.

Leonid awoke with a serious case of amnesia. He stayed with the Kaldorei for a couple of months, training in the art of a warrior, as there was nothing else he could do. His name was realised, when he had awoke, and read his pendant, with his name and rank carved in Draenei. So he set off to look for his past.
