You guys might know this but I love Final Fanasty XII. I have not played it's sequel Revenant Wings but it's pretty much both the only Final Fantasy Game, I had played or beaten to which I'm glad cause I think not many people beat the final bosses on the first attempt which is what I had done a short time ago, and it also sparked motivation to work on a fic on FFXII like I did at the past but stopped.

Appearance: Being a Judge Magister, Leonis wears the armor that shows his status of a plate of black mail armor that has 2 each of diagonal sliver lines from his midsection to his shoulder guards, and a black cape with the sigil of the Archadian Empire on it in green. Unlike the other Judge Magisters, Leonis' own armor, is made from Titanium which makes it a high degree of defense for his uses as Titanium is the strongest, and densest metal to work with. Leonis' helmet shows of no horns resembling that of a scarred dragon, and also has red markers training down it's eyes.

Under his helmet, Leonis is a boy with light chestnut hair with freckles around his face with hazelnut eyes. He also mounts a scar on his left eye that shows of his training with Judge Gabranth at work that is in sync with his helmet of his Judge Magister Armor. When out of his armor he wears a sleeveless black dress shirt that houses the Bunansa crest on it's back with white designs at the front in a pattern with him wearing loose pants that makes sure he doesn't get hot while in his armor supported by boots that can stand long degree of cold so he wouldn't get sick from there.

When being presented at Emperor Gramis' request Leonis wears a green dress shirt with the Bunansa crest on his front along with having on a medallion that is his only connection to his missing brother Balthier which is also a crest of House Bunansa with scratched up words spelling, 'Balthier' on it to show he still respects his older brother. He also wears loose gray pants to get use to the high temperature of his father's research, and often wears either black, or blue shoes. He also carries a small handgun as an act of self defense whenever someone tries to use him for blackmail or a bargaining chip due to his connections with Dr. Cid.

When his brother left Archadia to be a Sky Pirate, Leonis is wearing a white dress shirt with a black design that shows the crest of Bunansa on his back, and having on green gloves to symbolizes his wants to be in peace without bloodshed. He is also shown to wear black pants housing several pockets usually stuffed with his father's notes, and his own personal Keycard if he needs Cid for whatever reason.

Personality: Leonis is a conflicted young boy from being surrounded with multiple heartbreaks following his childhood. Before Balthier's defection he was an aspiring young lad seeking to earn his father, and his brother's support, and affection by accomplishing great acts that would do good for the family often supporting them both in terms of research, equipment, or degrees of piloting. He is also respectful towards his fellow peers often accomplishing them for their hard works, and rewards them whenever he can for good deeds. As far as life goes Leonis is what described by his father a 'chipper young Bunansa' remarking that he was like him when he was young.

But it changed cause after the disappearance of his older brother Leonis became doubtful of his talents, and does not think he's good enough to follow in his footsteps due to his acts to be a Judge at a young age. Easily intimidated, and shy, Leonis became reclusive, and rarely talks to anyone but his father. Leonis still holds his goals to earn his father's approval but isn't sure wither or not he would please him or not due to Balthier's departure. Overall Leonis soon became a mature but easily shaken grown man at a young age.

These traits soon came to an end ever since he was requested to be met by the Emperor of Archadia himself, Lord Gramis Gana Solidor, and earning the trust, and approval of his son Vayne Carudas Solidor along with the support of the other Judge Magisters. He, no longer seeks to earn his father's approval knowing that he is already proud of his efforts devoting to protect Vayne with his life, and wishes little to no bloodshed when having to fight. Now determined, and no longer doubting himself he became a confident, and responsible Judge treating his comrades with respect, and assists them in tasks when he shouldn't concern himself with. From this he became a successful Judge Magister, and a reasonable young man with others along with being one of the most influential soldiers of the Archadian Armies.

As far as it goes despite all of this he holds no resentment towards his older brother, and only seeks to one day unite with him not wishing to spill blood, and wants Balthier to return home, and assist in Archadia's needs the way he does now. When his brother is mentioned Leonis often goes in a moment of silence before changing the subject showing how much he misses him, and wishes to see him again.

Abilities: Leonis is a young man who is shown to be a quick-minded, and also a fast fighter from practicing by himself using some natural senses to feel what attacks are coming at him, and also uses several magical abilities but as he uses magic less he relies more on using attacks with weapons, and also uses kicks to have an advantage on stunning his opponents. Despite this his stamina is still normal as he can tire easily after long periods of fights which is supported by his Titanium Armor as it can either slow him down, or tire him quickly. But with what he has in his arsenal to match Judge Gabranth's own abilities he also requires to fight for a short time before his body starts demanding to rest.

From Venat granting Leonis the ability command the Mist, his magick abilities improve, and it's strength grown stronger to where a basic Fire can melt rock at a instant, and that he can channel the Mist to his physical strength allowing him to fight with much force, and also apply strength to his attacks, and his senses also improve allowing him to effectively predict his opponent's movements, or patterns, and devise counter strategies for such attacks. But even with these added abilities his stamina is still not improved growing tired, and his commanding of Mist often overheats his body when fighting so he can only use the Mist in short amounts or in emergencies unless he risks passing out or his body cooks from the inside out effectively killing him.

He also displays tolerance to pain as taking several hits, and still be ready to fight showing that pain is only a minor obstacle to him willing to fight to the very last against the Archadian Empire's enemies. And with the ability to command the Espers he often summons one of them but just the act of summoning only one can put a toll on his body often tiring him out when releasing the Mist for his attacks, and when pushed his body will start to overheat which can kill him if he isn't careful, and when releasing all the Mist from his body his body often shuts-down which can result in him passed out for days, or even weeks.

One of Leonis' most trusted abilities is the act of tactical response giving hand signal commands to his soldiers to prepare in different positions, and ready to ambush against the enemies since without voicing the commands the enemy can't figure out what Leonis plans to do which makes Leonis an unpredictable Judge Magister.

Leonis is also an expert of swordsmanship using both a sword, and a dagger in combat. He uses mainly just one sword to fight before if pushed he can use a dagger or a second blade to fight further, and can also use magicks to give him a short breather if lucky, and can also cast healing magick if needed, and displays he can also use a Firearm in combat but states his use of a firearm is only an act for self defense if needed. His armor composed of Titanium is the densest metal to be worked with which can both be an act of defense, or offense as it can withstand many of hard punishment but it's also heavy often slowly Leonis, and also making it hot for Leonis to fight with sometimes taking off his helmet to breath in air so his body won't overheat.

Out of all of his magicks his strongest, and dangerous ability is of Gravity which he learns by lending in the Mist he can also alter the Gravity of his opponents, and can potentially crush his opponents under the weight of their equipment or to their surroundings. He had once tried sinking a enemy ship with this which had succeeded but due to how much mastery of the Mist, and magick energy it needed to acquire such a feat it needs a lot of focus, and concentration, and when pulled off Leonis stays stunned for at least a minute, and if haven't most likely passed out.

It was an early morning in Archades the capital of Archardia... And a morning that's gonna change the life of the military of the Empire namely by a man named Ffamran mied Bunansa...

Ffamran is a promising young man having joined the Archadian Academy to support the Empire, and train to be a solider as his father is the leading scientist of the Draklor Laboratories to which he showed quite a bit of promise to where he was made as a Judge at only 16. Ffamran couldn't be prouder of his status the way he is now, and glorious days had elasped as he can now fight for Archadia.

Following his promotion he had joined his father for a trip which is stated can tip the balance in Archadia's favor though he disappointingly was tasked to guide the entrance so if his father is in danger, and need escaping Ffamran will be there to assist him if that is the case. Otherside from monsters that came in through the gate, Ffamran was mostly bored due to not being allowed access.

It was when his father finished that things start to turn downhill...

Ever since they returned after finishing up Ffamran had heard that his father was apparently talking to himself believing to have gone mad, and asked his father if what their saying is true to which he replied they might or might not be before starting to have a conversation with no-one in particular which made his son blink at this predictiment. Needless to say things did not improve from there since then.

Days turn into weeks as Ffamran can see that his father is too preoccupied with his conservations often refering to what he's talking too as 'Venat' but doesn't know what to think. Following his encounter Ffamran starts to think his father had went insane following his trip to where they had gotten this, and believes he had lost him before or after they came to where they were suppose to go, and now he's starting to plan leaving it behind not standing the sight of his father talking to himself any longer.

But their was still something that he feels like he's forgetting...

"Lord brother?"

Oh, so that was it.

Ffamran wearing a different attire of a embroidered golden and olive vest over a high-collared shirt and tight black leather trousers with leather shin pads, and steel, open-backed sandals wearing two crossed, gold-buckled belts with two pouches attached to either side and a collection of brightly colored rings and bracelets on his left hand, and has a set of earrings in both ears, and also has short brown hair with blond highlights, sharply styled sideburns, and green eyes turned to see who talked to him seeing his younger brother.

His name is Leonas baruna Bunansa or also known as "Leon" which only his brother calls him by that name. His pockets are stuffed with notes of their father's research with his gloves rolled to his sleeves as he asked his brother, "What are you doing?"

Ffamran hopes to leave without his brother knowing but since Leonas caught him before doing that he knows he has no choice but to comply sighing, "I can't take this anymore, Leon... Father... I can't stand seeing him talking to himself anymore he has gone mad with his research of Nethicite."

"But Lord brother... Lord Father means well, he is just discussing business with his imaginary friend." Leonis said trying to change Ffamran's mind to stay, and while his words did seem to make his brother smile he still shake his head saying it didn't work.

Ffamran then added to Leonis, "I know but... ever since father returned he's been difficult to be reasoned with over this 'Venat'... Both that, and me being a Judge is too much for me... I want to just not put up with it anymore... But don't take it as I abandoned you Leon..."

"Ffamran..." Leonis trailed off with tears only for Ffamran to grin kneeling in front of his brother before poking his forehead with two fingers, "Huh?"

"Just remember, that I still love you little guy." Ffamran grinned which made Leonis pout at him for his teasing before Ffamran then stood back telling him, "Well, I'm off..."

"Ffamran wait please!" Leonis told him which made Ffamran paused turning over curiously before he asked Ffamran, "Will... will we see each other again?"

Ffamran didn't say anything for a second before turning back starting to walk off towards to Archadian Aerodrome saying these final words, "That a promise."

And with that the trailer is off. It had been a while so sorry if Balthier's personality was a bit OC but I we don't have the exact meeting of Balthier leaving Archadia to be the Sky Pirate he is. Be sure to expect the full story soon enough.
