History
Dead or Alive 2 to Dead or Alive 3
Leon is a lonely soldier, wandering this world while building his strength. His heart is still torn from the loss of Roland, a woman of the Silk Road, who died in his arms saying, "The man I love is the strongest man in the world". In order to fulfill the last words of his lost love, he aspires to be the strongest man on Earth, and intends to prove this by winning the Dead or Alive Tournament in her name.
Personality
One thing drives Leon: a need to fullfill his promise to Roland. The death of his lover's last words and his commitment to her is just about all he thinks about. In addition, Leon is merciless. He has some small measure of honor, but does not allow it to interfere with his desire to crush all opponents.
Description
While no specific relation is stated, Leon is closely associated with Bayman, largly due to their similar body types and the fact that they both use forms of Sambo to fight.
Leon is usually seen wearing a turban or a pair of sunglasses. His fighting style is very straight-forward compared to most characters, relying on a few high damage attacks instead of a long string of moves to form a chain combo.
