[edit] Introduction

Leo is a female character, slated to make her first appearance in Tekken 6. She first appeared in the official Tekken 6 trailer ([3]). She was shown fighting Armor King in the trailer. She is an orphan, having lost her parents under circumstances the police were not willing to investigate further.

[edit] Trivia

  • Along with fighting in the trailer, Leo was also shown visiting a graveyard in the trailer. Why Leo was doing this is unknown. It is possible that she is visiting her mother's grave given her story.
  • In Leo's win animation shown in the trailer, Leo says "Lucky me" while giving a thumbs-up.
  • In the first trailer that showed actual gameplay and new characters, many assumed Leo to be a male character. It was later confirmed she was in fact female.
  • Leo's "Item Move" is firing a bullet into the air with a pistol.
  • Possibly or impossibly, Leo could be rip-off or based from Rock Howard from the Fatal Fury series.
  • As shown in the February trailer for Tekken 6, Leo can be customised to have a red bandana around her eyes.
  • According to the katakana on the Official Tekken 6 Website, it would appear that Leo's name is pronounced closer to "Lay-oh" than "Lee-oh" ([4]).
  • Leo shares her fighting style with characters Akira Yuki (Virtua Fighter), Kokoro (Dead or Alive), Xiuying Hong (Shenmue), and Li Mei (Mortal Kombat: Deadly Allience). Fellow Tekken character, Julia Chang, even has a few moves based on this fighting style.

Leo is the child of a world known male spelunker and a top female executive of the biotech firm, G Corporation.

Leo’s father, whom she respected greatly, disappeared during an exploration when she was a child, but even so, she strove to become an explorer just like him. She grew up to be a straight and narrow person by her kind mother, but her happy days came to an abrupt end when her mother was killed.

Saddened by the tragic event, Leo shut everyone out of her life. Some time later, the police inconclusively end the murder investigation without explanation, prompting Leo to take matters into her own hands. Not long after starting her mission, Leo discovers the existence of a person who is regarded as a hero of the G Corporation - a man by the name of Kazuya Mishima. Linking him to the death of her parents, Leo seeks for revenge but finds it impossible to get near Kazuya due to his newly acquired status within the G Corporation.

However, Leo hears news of The King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 being held by the Mishima Financial Group. Finding out that Kazuya would be participating in it, Leo follows suit, believing this would be her only chance to avenge her slain mother.
