Profile[]
Appearance[]
Leonard is depicted as a blonde-haired man wearing a suit beneath several brown-colored robes that give him a bulky appearance, more notably seen in his sprite. In his robotic form, Leonard retains mostly the same appearance, with the exception that his clothes have fused into a single cylinder-shaped body and his face appears less detailed.
Personality[]
Leonard is described as exceedingly cruel, readily laughing at pain and disease, according to the info found in the Koorong computer. Despite this, Leonard is seen as a somewhat friendly individual when T260G approaches him, and even offers it to lend a hand to find its lost directive. Leonard then guides T260G's party to the end on their way to stop the region-ending RB3, leaving only when the task is fulfilled.
Story[]
T260G's Path[]
T260G comes to learn of Leonard from a computer in an abandoned apartment in Koorong. Leonard is revealed to be a genius scientist working in the field of robotics at Manhattan Research Center. Thinking this "Leonard" could help it in finding its lost mission, T260 departs to Manhattan to meet him. On the way for finding Leonard, T260G meets an oddly dressed man who appears to be familiar with Leonard; he then takes it to the Central Gate to meet him. The man actually reveals to be Leonard and inspects T260G to find any data regarding its lost mission, however he was unable to find anything due to his equipment being insufficient in doing so, commenting that T260G appears to be an ancient robotic model. He then suggests T260G to look for information in the ruins of Shingrow.
After recovering some info from the ruins and the terminal of Koorong, T260G goes to tell Leonard of this but unfortunately finds an "explosion" in the Central Gate had killed him, according to reports. When T260G and Gen arrive at his lab a second time after gathering more information, they discover Leonard had died in an bomb attack by Trinity. Leonard however had foresaw in the case such an incident would happen and was able to digitize a copy of his own mind into the computer at his lab and fabricate a body to house it in. Turned into a mech, Leonard suggests to look for info in one of the bases of Trinity: Tartaros. After traversing Tartaros, Leonard accesses the mainframe and looks for data regarding the T260 model; he finds nothing as the data was classified, but upon looking for the keyword "HQ" given to him by T260G, he finds a string of numbers that seems to point to its location. Now in HQ, Leonard accompanies T260G in delving into its core to find information, where the group find the place has been infested by several viruses. After pushing back the menace, T260G reacquires its lost mission and obtains the coordinates of its objective: RB3. Using this data, Leonard takes T260G's party through a region ship in Manhattan, and accompanies the group in the final mission of defeating the doomsday weapon. Leonard then finally departs from the group when T260G's party defeats Genocide Heart, parting to somewhere to continue his investigations,
