GENERAL/STORY:
Leo was part of a very talented family. His father was a world-famous spelunker, while his mother served as a G Corporation executive. Although Leo's father disappeared during an expedition when Leo was a child, Leo still wanted to follow in the family tradition and become a spelunker.

Leo possessed a strong sense of character, thanks to a proper upbringing. Life was pleasant and relatively uneventful until one fateful day, when Leo's mother was killed by an unknown assailant. Depressed and filled with grief, Leo became incensed when the police called-off their investigation quickly and without explanation. Leo vowed to find the truth.

During Leo's own investigation, the G Corporation's Kazuya Mishima materialized as a person of interest. The G Corporation was popularized at the time as a world hero, making it difficult to get close to Kazuya, and it looked as though Leo's quest had reached an insurmountable impasse. It was at this time that news of the Mishima Zaibatsu-sponsored The King of Iron Fist Tournament began to spread. Leo learned that Kazuya Mishima was scheduled to appear in person at the event. Realizing that this may be the only chance to take revenge against Kazuya, Leo decided to enter the contest.

REVIEW:
At first glance, Leo somewhat resembles SNK's Rock Howard, or could even be compared to Lion from Virtua Fighter fame. Namco totally gave us the run-around with this character, because on their Japanese website they confirmed Leo was a girl, then on the English website they confirmed he's a guy... Shenanigans!!! In any case Leo's fighting style seems very interesting and unique, and adds even further diversity to Tekken's awesome roster.
