Description Leto is a powerfully built man with a nondescript face (brown eyes) which could use a shave. His hair is cut in a military style. He goes dressed in black combat boots, black jeans, dark sweater and covers the whole with a long (up to his feet) leather black coat. Under normal circumstances he will always use sunglasses and wear a hat (detective style hat). A nasty looking combat knife is bound to his left leg and two bulges (guns) can be seen beneath his coat.
Personality Leto is a man torn on the inside, he wants to atone however he knows that people who try blindly to set things right end up dead very quickly. As such Leto is quite prepared to commit small crimes as long as at the end the outcome is for good. He was taught to revere life and will try to live up to that thought, only killing where it is absolutely necessary.
History Leto was born in the Swiss Mountains, son of a Swiss Catholic priest. At an early age Leto showed signs of a too aggressive nature, so aggressive that his father and mother were forced to have him severely disciplined at a military school. When Leto was released from this school his father had received a summoning to serve the church by accepting a post at the Vatican.

Leto, still underaged (and now far more subdued in his character) joined his family in the Vatican. His father, knowing far too well how easy it was to slip back into old patterns and that aggressive tendencies can never be removed (only controlled), had Leto join the Vatican Swiss Guard.

His instructors must have seen something special in him as he was selected to join a special branch of the Swiss Guard: those who delivered/retrieved messages and delivered/picked up items that were deemed to special to send by normal means of transportation. This duty was often so hazardous that the men executing these jobs received advanced combat training as well were bestowed with the technological measn to perform their job adequately.

At one such mission everything went wrong for Leto: he was sent to deliver a message to a priest in an underdeveloped country in Africa. Upon arrival he found the entire congregation brutally massacred by the followers of a rival faith. THe massacre was so brutal that Leto, contrary to standing procedure, took it upon humself to avenge the deaths. What followed is best left untold but for the fact that in his thirst for vengeance to many (innocent) civilians were killed.

Awaking from the red haze, Leto knew that he could never get away with what he had done. Not with the vatican but more importantly not with himself. Morose and searching for a way to atone, he remembered the vistis a priest from America made to his father. That priest always spoke about the criminal barbarity te UCAS and specifically Seattle had fallen to. Perhaps he could atone in this city...

>>>>>[Mr. Leto. I know you frequent these bulletin boards and I know that the things that have happened during the last couple of months have made you realize your own self-worth. I hope you have been properly educated in the events that are about to unfold and your role therein. I also hope that you realize you've been getting your information from one side and could perhaps be a little clouded in the ways of objectivity. Also remember that the source of your information has more or less solely been that old goat of a dragon.

I suggest you contact me so we can arrange for a meeting on your terms so I can perhaps explain some of the changes you are going through and the several options that are presented to you.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Leto, if it's true that you read these logs regularly in your abscence, I suggest you don't re-evaluate your past experiences with Sr. Oscuro. I can guarantee you, on my life that you are fighting a good fight. People as well as others, need to make sacrifices sometimes. Sometimes those sacrifices are not made willingly...but in the end everybody will gain from your sacrifice. Ask Roadblock or Six about what they saw that day in the basement of the Wastelands. They know what is waiting for the world and I can assure you that both of them are doing everything in their power to prevent it. Hang in there, it won't be long until this is over.]<<<<<

We pick up the pieces and continue on.]<<<<<

>>>>>[You are not insignificant. Thayla's continued survival and her renewed strength and vigor would attest to that, don't you think my dear?]<<<<<

>>>>>[If everybody's talking about what I think they're talking about through all the innuendoes and intimations, then you and your team did an absolute drekload, Six. My one regret is that I wasn't a part of it. You should feel great about the importance of what you accomplished.]<<<<<
