"Kid" Leon

"Is this kid going through the reverse of puberty or what?" - Johnny during Kid Leon's first appearance.

When Leon Veralice needs a quick disguise, a way to increase his charm or just wants to make his adventures more challenging, he will often change into the guise of a small, 7 year old child. This Kid Leon is that guise. Every bit as dangerous as his adult counterpart but infinitely more adorable, Kid Leon is able to accomplish those things that adult Leon simply cannot..

Appearance
Kid Leon looks like a kid version of Leon Veralice. Go figure, huh? Flowing purple robes, big brown eyes and a smile to match, he is the textbook definition of adorable.

Personality
Kid Leon bears all of the personality traits of his adult counterpart. He relishes fun and excitement, loves going on adventurers and practicing magic, and holds the same callous disregard for life as he did during his days as the Emperor of Awesome Land, shown when he carelessly initiates a thermite explosion during a battle in Southryos that inadvertantly kills Knox's parents.

The only trait that distinguishes Kid Leon from adult Leon is his penchant for crying. He is quick to shed tears when he needs to garner pity from crowds (such as during his conversation with Johnny at Taco Bell) or when he is genuinely upset (such as during his conversation with Aurora about Giggles the Clown).

Awesome Land!: An Interactive Story
Kid Leon first appears when Leon needs a disguise in order to covertly entice Johnny to become a soldier of the Awesome Land Empire. Unbeknownst to him, however, Johnny is under cover as a male model in order to investigate the whereabouts of Johnny's sister, Sarah. Leon later dons the disguise at a Taco Bell so he can speak with Johnny about Sarah's location without fear of retribution. After all, who would hit a child?

Awesome Land!: A Rebooted Story
During Aurora's country-wide festival, Kid Leon appears as an operator of rigged carnival games. It is here where he first meets Giggles the Clown and offers him the chance to play the classic "High Striker" game. After Giggles fails miserably at the challenge and responds with a bad joke, Kid Leon goes off crying to his sister, indirectly leading to Giggles' presumed demise at the hands of the Kraken.

Southryos: The Infinite City
On one of his many adventures away from Awesome Land, Leon assumes his child form once more to explore the nation of Southryos. While flying around in his personal helicopter, he encounters the "protagonists" fooling around in the Southryosian slums and gets caught up in a three way battle between himself, the Dayman and the Bread Wizard. In an effort to end the battle quickly, Kid Leon uses his knowledge of chemistry to create a thermite reaction, vaporizing several buildings, fixtures and people. During the ensuing chaos, Leon escapes the wreckage and makes his way to a mafia owned smoothie bar. After a spat with the proprietor, he becomes the new owner of the facility. Shortly thereafter, he meets up with Xeltyr and the duo go to the Urban Power Company in an effort to find a Keystone.

Powers and Abilities
Kid Leon has displayed the same acumen in swordplay and sorcery as his adult counterpart. He has shown a significant amount of durability despite his small physique; he was able to escape from his severely damaged helicopter mech completely unscathed.

As an offshoot of his spatial manipulation powers, Kid Leon shows the unique ability to seal creatures inside magazines and resummon them under his control at will. Thus far he has sealed away one creature; the massive, squid-like abomination known as C'thulga.

Interestingly, Kid Leon has been shown both to drive a sports car and pilot a helicopter, and is one of the only characters in the series to operate a vehicle, despite being the youngest.
