Leigh Arteaga

General Description
Leigh is gangly and spidery with very little muscle tone and a bit of a pot belly, with long hands and a long face. His lack of body fat makes his ribs, cheekbones, jawbones and ribs protrude slightly, but he does not look truly 'anorexic'. His hair is nearly shoulder length and extremely coarse and wavy. He wears a pair of square-shaped glasses and often forgets to shave for days on end.

He often wears layers of clothing due to the fact that he is rather sensitive to cold, and favors jeans and hooded sweatshirts. He is known to wear wool toques in all sorts of weather. He prefers dark earth tones to make himself stand out less.

He lives in Valnote.

Personality
Leigh is somewhat introverted, but friendly. He enjoys making harmless jokes and sitting back when it comes to excitement, and will often comment on things rather than engage in them. He tends to be a little self-deprecating and has a low self-esteem but he'll use these things to his advantage, comparing himself to others to boost peoples' self esteem. However, Leigh does have a "no nonsense limit" that can be reached where he will treat situations actively and with more seriousness than his usual relaxed nature.

Leigh is a picky eater and is often sick, so most of his free time is spent relaxing. When on Ren's gaming channel, he will often play up his personality as a bit of a ladies' man, despite not being interested in women at all.

Biography
Leigh was born in Palm Springs, Cali and is the second child of Bryan and Izzy, after Grimlock. While his parents didn't love him any less than his siblings, Leigh displayed no aptitude for magic and had no hobbies outside of reading and video games. He also had a very weak constitution as a child and was often sick (a trait that has followed him into adulthood).

He dropped out of highschool at the age of 16 to train under Chester Dozier to become a hougan, and was granted preisthood when he was 20. Before opening his store in Valnote, he traveled around Adeus and worked various odd jobs before settling down.

Leigh is a (specifically a  houngan sur pwen - or a junior priest) and enjoys making good luck or love charms for people in his store, The Fey Garden which specializes in various magical charms and artifacts. He often appears on Grimlock and Ren's gaming channel.

Weaknesses and Powers
Leigh is rather thin and is sick rather easily, and while he has some hand-to=hand combat training, he often loses physical fights. His lack of nutrition and food in general has left him with a very slight build.

Leigh is very talented at creating enchanted items and charms, and often will add transformative properties to them to amuse himself or help others.He is also a medium, and can channel spirits for brief amounts of time through his own body. When this happens, he will often take a few physical traits of the spirit he is communicating with (ie. hair colour).
