Leonidas, a young adult lion, at a glance looks rather intimidating to be around due to his biker-like getup, the scar on one his eyes and rip on one of his ears but he's actually a rather chill dude. He lives in Metal City where Extreme Gear racing is all the hype. Ever since he got his scar trying to protect the innocent from thugs when was 12 years old, Leonidas has been training to become stronger and stronger so that no one gets hurt. When Leonidas became friends with Kaiser and the rest of his group, he, Kaiser and Skye formed the team that is known as Team Tempest.

Leonidas can be a pretty nice guy but he also has quite the short temper. He's also quite the hothead, making him arrogant sometimes.

Leonidas can usually be pretty nice despite his intimidating appearance but often he's got a short temper, leading to rage-filled and sometimes hilarious antics. When he's in a good mood though, he's a blast to be around.

Origins of the scar

Leonidas was 12 years old when it occured. Thugs were causing trouble to the innocent civilians and Leonidas was there trying his best to protect them. He gave it his all and took care of a lot of thugs but then a thug approached him from behind and struck him, leaving a rip in his right ear and a nasty scar on his right eye. Despite the intense amount of pain, Leonidas took care of the rest of the thugs. This scar that those crooks gave him has made Leonidas realise that he's got to get stronger so that he can protect everyone in Metal City and maybe even the whole world one day.

The flame within

During his battle against the thugs and getting the scar from them, something awakened within Leonidas. Then suddenly, fire shot out of his hand. He used these new pyrokinetic powers to easily take care of the bandits. Some time after, Leonidas.

Team Tempest

Some time after Kaiser became best friends with Skye, he was on a school trip with her and other students. They were staying at a forest lodge for the night and the students were exploring the forest to enjoy the scenery. All is going well... until Eggman's robots attacked them. Skye, despite being scared, used her psychic powers to save some of the students and take out some of the badniks. Kaiser used hit-and-run tactics to take out some more badniks. They were having an easy time until some Egg Hammer's arrived. They're way sturdier than the smaller bots thus making the battle harder. Kaiser tried his best but was overpowered by the hammer wielding robot. Skye, in a desperate situation, used her psychic powers with everything she has to defeat one of the giant badniks. Only one Egg Hammer was left but both fighters are completely out of stamina.

Things were going bad for the young wolf and hedgehog. Kaiser's on the floor, very injured from the badnik's attacks and Skye is in trouble as she's too tired to use her powers. At that point it looked like the end for the young hedgehog... and then the beast was unleashed. Kaiser stood up with furious a expression and yellow eyes. The badnik went after the berserk wolf, only it for it to be a huge mistake. Kaiser, powered up from his rage, destroyed the hammer-wielding badnik to pieces. Kaiser just stood there, still in this furious state. Skye slowly approached him, reasonably terrifyied. Kaiser turned around, giving the scared hedgehog a piercing glare but still just stands there as if his mind isn't completely berserk now that things calmed down. Skye put her arms on the young wolf's shoulders, pleading him to snap out of it with tears in her eyes. Kaiser slowly got to his senses and then passed out due to exhaustion. Whatever happened in that moment was something that Kaiser had to endure for years to come but he knows that eventually, he'll be able to control it.
