[edit] Introduction

Leo (pronounced "Lay-oh") is a female character, slated to make her first appearance in Tekken 6. She first appeared in the official Tekken 6 trailer ([2]). She was shown fighting Armor King in the trailer. She is an orphan, having lost her parents under circumstances that the police were not willing to investigate further.

It has been rumored that her surname is Kliesen ([3]).

[edit] Trivia

• Along with fighting in the trailer, Leo was also shown in a cemetery, laying flowers on a grave marked 'Emma Kliesen'. This is almost surely her mother's grave.
• Two of Leo's animations that are shown before a fight feature Leo saying (to herself) "Just relax. You can do it!" and "Get ready!". Some of Leo's animations that are shown after winning a fight (win animations) feature her saying "Lucky me!" (while giving a thumbs-up), "No pattern, no form!" (while doing a kata), and "That was a close one."
• In the first trailer that showed actual gameplay and new characters, many assumed Leo to be a male character because her breasts were buckled down. It was later confirmed she was in fact female.
• Leo's "Item Move" is firing a flare into the air with a pistol.
• Leo's design may be based on Rock Howard from the Fatal Fury series due to their similar look.
• As shown in the February trailer for Tekken 6, Leo can be customized to have a red bandana around her eyes.
• According to the katakana on the Official Tekken 6 Website, it would appear that Leo's name is pronounced closer to "Lay-oh" than "Lee-oh" ([4]).
• Like Julia Chang, Leo practices Bājíquán; Hakkyokuken being its Japanese name.
• Leo's fighting stance is very similar to Heihachi Mishima's fighting stance (the fighting stance that Heihachi acquired in Tekken 3 and has kept ever since).
• While wearing her Player One outfit (the outfit that is shown in her Tekken 6 CG art), Leo appears to be holding her breasts back with buckles.
• In Soul Calibur III, during Create A Soul you can find Leo's hairstyle (Untidy Short Hair).
• Leo was rumored to be 12 before anyone knew her age.

[edit] Fighting Style Information

Leo is intended to be a character who can be played by beginners and experienced players alike. The commands for some of Leo's moves are "b+1,2,1+2", "f+1+2", "f+4", "f+4, 1,2", "d+3+4", and "d+3+4, 2" ([5]).

[edit] Story

Leo is the child of a world known male spelunker and a top female executive of the biotech firm, G Corporation.

Leo’s father, whom she respected greatly, disappeared during an exploration when she was a child, but even so, she strove to become an explorer just like him. She grew up to be a straight and narrow person by her kind mother, but her happy days came to an abrupt end when her mother was killed.

Saddened by the tragic event, Leo shut everyone out of her life. Some time later, the police inconclusively end the murder investigation without explanation, prompting Leo to take matters into her own hands. Not long after starting her mission, Leo discovers the existence of a person who is regarded as a hero of the G Corporation - a man by the name of Kazuya Mishima. Linking him to the death of her parents, Leo seeks for revenge but finds it impossible to get near Kazuya due to his newly acquired status within the G Corporation.

However, Leo hears news of The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 being held by the Mishima Financial Group. Finding out that Kazuya would be participating in it, Leo follows suit, believing this would be her only chance to avenge her slain mother.

Leo's storyline is unchanged between Tekken 6 and Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion.

[edit] Character Relationships

• Kazuya Mishima has something to do with the murder of Leo's mother.
