Lee is something of an artist, and can usually be found wandering around with a sketchbook, or his digital camera, or both.

-
He speaks several languages (although he is not equally fluent in all of them), the result of growing up in a town where people from a number of different worlds would sometimes come together, whether for trade, or tourism, or any of a number of other purposes.
+
When he was transformed into a female due to events in [[MKRP|Mossy Knoll]], she was about an inch or two shorter, and had a build much like [[Ann Pertchin|Ann]], with shoulder-length blonde hair. As Lee herself commented, she could almost be mistaken for Ann's older sister. She wore an adapted version of his usual outfit, with the shirt magically adjusted for a snug fit (and a bit of midriff-baring and cleavage).
-
A magical strain in his family bloodline has given him the ability to sense the presence of magic, to a limited extent. This same “warning sense” allows him to instinctively detect if a drink or food would be harmful to him, for example if it were poisoned, or drugged, or merely contained something that would cause a harmful allergic reaction (although he would not be able to tell which it was), merely by picking it up. He often refers to this as “feline intuition”, a possibly inaccurate term (not that he cares!).
+
'''Personality'''
-
'''History:'''
+
Lee is an easy-going sort for the most part. Fairly level-headed, he will normally stop to analyse a situation before jumping in. He tends to take most weirdness in stride, probably due to having seen so much weirdness in all the different worlds he's been to that very little fazes him any more. If he sees someone in trouble, he will try to help them however he can. He has a good sense of humour, and something of a fondness for bad puns.
-
Lee grew up on a world inhabited by “furry” people, mostly of the feline persuasion. Being covered with fur, there is little or no nudity taboo, and people there can often be seen going about their business in little or no clothing, especially during the (very hot) summer months.

Lee has hinted that he is, or might be, related to various famous fictional cats. Whether this is true, or merely a reflection of his sense of humour, is open to speculation.

Lee comes from another universe, from a planet named "Felisar" by its inhabitants, most of whom are of the anthrofeline persuasion (although other "furry" races are represented).

Along the way, he discovered [[Grassvale Town RP|Grassvale]], and decided to make a home there.

Character Bio/Description

Leon-DeCouer-av.jpg

Name: Leon de Coeur (usually prefers to be called "Lee")

Age: Looks around 30 (Actual age is closer to 60)

Species: Anthrofeline

Gender: Male

Nationality: Felisari (Dimensional traveller)

Hair: Dark blond, and usually short

Fur: Yellow, with darker yellow stripes on his face, arms, and tail, and white fur running from under his chin, down the front of his torso

Eyes: Blue, with catlike vertically-slit pupils. Lee is slightly near-sighted without his glasses.

Height: 5'10"

Appearance

Somewhat wiry build, wears glasses that stay put somehow in spite of having no apparent arms. Always wears blue jeans, and usually a loose-fitting zip fronted shirt. May or may not wear shoes, according to his mood - his foot-paws are as tough as (or possibly even tougher than) shoe leather, and he normally goes barefoot by preference. Has retractable claws on both hands and feet.

When he was transformed into a female due to events in Mossy Knoll, she was about an inch or two shorter, and had a build much like Ann, with shoulder-length blonde hair. As Lee herself commented, she could almost be mistaken for Ann's older sister. She wore an adapted version of his usual outfit, with the shirt magically adjusted for a snug fit (and a bit of midriff-baring and cleavage).

Personality

Lee is an easy-going sort for the most part. Fairly level-headed, he will normally stop to analyse a situation before jumping in. He tends to take most weirdness in stride, probably due to having seen so much weirdness in all the different worlds he's been to that very little fazes him any more. If he sees someone in trouble, he will try to help them however he can. He has a good sense of humour, and something of a fondness for bad puns.

Notable Possessions

Lee's clothing is made from an enchanted fabric, which not only repels most dirt and grime, but also allows Lee to alter its shape and colour at will, to conform with local styles where needed. He also has a Backpack of Holding (similar in principle to a Bag of Holding), which contains various items, some of them magical in nature.

Abilities and Skills

Magical

A magical strain in his family bloodline has given him the ability to sense the presence of magical energies.

  • A "warning sense" allows him to instinctively detect if a drink or food would be harmful to him, for example if it were poisoned, or drugged, or merely contained something that would cause a harmful allergic reaction (although he would not be able to tell which it was), merely by picking it up. He often refers to this as "feline intuition", a possibly inaccurate term (not that he cares).
  • Lee has, over the years, picked up a fair knowledge of magic (and a number of small-scale spells), both from members of his family, and from hanging around other people of considerable magical talent. His own power level is extremely limited, so he prefers not to use magic more than necessary.

Non-magical

  • Lee has an innate (racial) ability to sense disturbances in the local space-time, a useful ability for a dimensional traveller.
  • Lee is something of an artist, and will usually have a sketchbook, or his digital camera, or both, to hand.
  • He speaks several languages (although he is not equally fluent in all of them), the result of growing up in a town where people from a number of different worlds would sometimes come together, whether for trade, or tourism, or any of a number of other purposes.
  • Lee is also a fairly good cook, and has a decent singing voice.

MKRP

Lee arrived in Mossy Knoll as a result of a near-miss by a large craft, while in transit. The near-collision threw him out of the interspacial realm and into the space-time of Mossy Knoll, arriving on Ann's doorstep, and colliding with her front door with sufficient force to give him a concussion. Having been cured of it (thanks to the Artmoogle), he then stepped in to help when Rose's "heat" temporarily overwhelmed her, sending her completely out of control.

While having tea with Rose, Knave, and Aurora, he managed to help them sort out at least some of the problems caused by all three of them going into heat together (and for the first time...).

Having befriended Roan, Lee took up residence in the house Roan created, which became the Blue Cloud Inn.

Lee was temporarily turned into a female, due to an explosion of TF grenades that affected a large area of the town, and transformed a sizable proportion of the population. His normal male form was eventually restored by Art, much to Igor's disappointment. It seems he'd gotten rather interested in the female Lee...

  • Lee has mentioned that some famous fictional cats were (or may have been) inspired by members of his family.
