character: Leona Kingscholar | Twisted Wonderland
canon point: Riiiight at the super very beginning of CH 7
age: 20
sexuality: bi/pan. Mean to guys, a total gentleman to gals, regardless of any romantic intent.

player name: lucifer lovestruck
contact: pm or [plurk.com profile] love_letters
age: 30+
tag speed: Inconsistent; usually late nights and early mornings on CST/CDT. I'm a fast tagger most of the time but may have delays of several days in between days of boomeranging. I don't mind if you don't match my speed!

crosscanon: Y, and crossmedium too. OCs, etc. all welcome!
bracket/prose: brackets preferred, but I'll match whatever format.
backtagging: As long as you tag, I'll tag back, even if it's months down the line. If I'm taking a few weeks, hit me up, cos I might have lost a notif.
threadhopping: All's good with me as long as it's good w/ everyone.
fourthwalling: Go ahead.

!!negative interaction notes!!: Leona's a mean bitch and may not seem as interested in talking to your character as I am interested in threading with you. Even with romantic partners, he might not react in an immediately romantic way, and may seem selfish and avoidant-attachment style. This doesn't mean that romance with him is impossible!
I'm also down with completely negative CR, especially if it's funny.
physical affection: I love writing this, but Leona might be standoffish depending on the character or relationship.
smut/shipping: Open to this, but I'm a little slower with smut threads.
violence: I'm open, but not super confident in big long fight scenes, and would like to avoid fatal injury.
Injury/Death: let's keep injury minor and avoid permanent death.

relationships: open to ships as well as to people poking at his tsundere care for smaller and weaker things. He's not exactly what anyone would call a good brother, uncle, or dad-type, but he's still somewhat protective of those he cares about and puts in effort to guiding those younger than himself the right way.
fav ships: xVil, but actually I ship Leona with P Much Everyone. Bring any TWST to me and I'll probably accept your reasoning.


wishes & tropes: I just like playing him I have no big goals. Lion nice. Lion fun.

NSFW Desires
updating soon

idk ride his schmeat or sth. probably gives interesting blowjobs. see his duplicity cheat sheet or my


not interested in: grimdark/hopeless plots. Dark subject matter is ok, just not looking for bad end feels.

magical info:Leona is a well-trained mage who has operated at the skill of a professional adult since before his enrollment in Night Raven College, making him effectively the most educated and skilled non-fae student in the cast. It is stated that his magical reserves are "enormous" and that his launch speed is "sky high". he might not be able to perform specialties that are unique, but has a general mastery of magic and excels in his own specialty. the in-universe general mastery of magic includes being able to change his own clothes and that of others', command inanimate objects to move and bend as though animated, change the colors and other cosmetic qualities of objects, bless/curse objects, remove stains using magic, and other 'cantrip' style spells.

  • shapeshifting magic is restricted by law and Leona does not have legal clearance to practice it, and otherwise implies he is incapable.


  • he is not capable of reproducing other Unique Magic/Signature Spells.


  • he is not omnipotent, not impervious to having his power limited by outside technology or spells, and does not have a near-limitless capacity like Malleus.


  • he seems to lose strength deeply after using a lot of magic, and mentions being tired and needing to sit down to rest and recover after these large expenditures of energy.


  • while he does seem to be one of the strongest non-fae students, he is still susceptible to and damaged by blot, unlike Idia Shroud— another way that 'power levels' aren't necessarily the end-all-be-all to a mage's abilities and one of the biggest reasons why so-called "weaker" mages were able to defeat Leona during overblot. In the Manga version of the story, the completely magicless Yuuka is able to defeat Leona through physical means.



  • Unique Magic/Signature Spell: KING'S ROAR. A wide Area-of-Effect spell dries out any object, organic or otherwise, and turns it to sand. Leona himself describes it as difficult to control to the point he won't use it in tight spaces for the risk of turning unintended targets to sand. It can still be targeted to a single object in a more open space, but the risk is just apparently too high when things are too close together. it is a potentially fatal spell, and unrestricted, it can affect a large swath of land, parching the earth and scorching trees dry. In the novel, Leona suggests he was born with the spell.

    Blot/Overblot: using magic in Leona's world causes a type of negative exhaust that may taint their souls. if a mage is in poor mental health condition and continues to use magic without resting to undo the accumulation of blot, their soul may overflow with blot and a phantom may emerge to attempt to possess their body as a vessel. when that vessel is fully spent, the remaining husk fully becomes a magic. this operates as a kind of magical fatigue system, and Leona has experienced overblotting once in the past. it is one of the many ways in which Leona isn't all-powerful, as he is also well-trained enough to theoretically manage his blot well despite his immense power. personally I don't care about if he gets to be able to overblot, I just like using blot build up as an excuse to not let him use too much offensive magic.

    physiological info:Lion Beastman: so basically he's a humanoid being descended from animals. he has certain animalistic traits, namely in having a lion's tail and ears and:

    Sense of Smell: Leona sits squarely between Jack (better) and Ruggie (somewhat less strong) in terms of his ability to pick up scents stronger than a human could. Almost all beastmen seem to have better senses of smell than humans, but Jack establishes that beastmen can't smell as well as their animal ancestors. Where Jack seems to be able to follow scents and track them to some degree but not to identify them, Leona in comparison doesn't seem to track by scent but is capable of identifying certain kinds of magic by scent, as well as being able to identify when someone doesn't have magic. He also mentions being able to identify what people's species are, not just in being able to identify overarching races (human, beastman, direbeast, fae, merfolk) but in the case of non-humans their specific subsets (hyena beastman, dragon fae, octopus vs eel etc.) This was likely deliberately trained into him as the other beastmen present do not mention it.

    with regards to magic it seems Leona's sniffing can identify a certain degree of spells around him (the way other mages of his caliber would use survey spells). he also routinely demonstrates that he has a great measure of the other students' magical capacities, suggesting that he can identify that some are stronger than others.

    I'll ask permission before having him be able to ID magical scents on others, or feel free to let me know ahead of time if you want him to pick something up on your character's scent.

    Sensitive Hearing: it's not entirely clear how sensitive, but like most beastmen he can hear better than humans. he can hear whispers pretty easily even when not right next to the whisperer, can hear loud noises from further away than others, and tends to be playing dumb if he pretends not to hear someone muttering, but it doesn't seem like he can hear three doors down or anything like that. he does tend to complain if sounds are sharp, repetitive, or loud. he doesn't make any mention of being able to identify magic by pitch while Ruggie is able to discern the weight of coins by their sound, so it's safe to assume Leona just has average hearing abilities for a beastman and isn't particularly exceptional about it.


    appearance: blah blah i'll get to this later

    voice: how they sound

    scent: is your character stimky
