Leon Silverberg a. I love his no-nonsense personality, for one. He's a very compelling character because we see how he acts as both a supporter for a protagonist and an antagonist. More than any of the other strategists in the Suikoden games, Leon presents himself as a professional strategist that isn't involved in the war because he has a personal stake in the war.
b. Leon's a very difficult character to get in the head of, and it really hurts my inspiration for him. As much as I love him, I can't seem to grasp his character to write him.
c. ...Uh... Well, I've never imagined him in pairings other than the vaguely-hinted at predatory Yuber/Leon in my drabbles. *_*
d. For all of his ability, Leon has never actively sought out war. After graduating Soledt, Leon joined Scarlet Moon's imperial army and gained experience through the various skirmishes with the Jowston City-States. He eventually had to quit the army because George was born (through a one-night stand) and he went on to take care of Mathiu and Odessa, keeping him from becoming deeply involved in war again until the Succession War.
e. If I ever get the drive to write more of my Silverberg ficlets, I still need to write the story where Yuber's contract with Leon comes full circle and Leon realizes just how obsessed Yuber was with him.
