'''Leon Powalski''' | '''Leon Powalski''' is one of the original [[Star Wolf]] members and the rival of [[Falco Lombardi]]. He first appears in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. | ||
Leon's | == Appearance and personality == | ||
Leon's appearance is based on that of a [[Wikipedia:Chameleon|Chameleon]]. He was originally a classy, competent pilot with a calm and sinister voice tone. Later, in ''Star Fox: Assault'', Leon became a crazed, ruthless assassin who often lets out a deranged laugh after defeating a foe. In ''Star Fox: Assault'', Leon is also shown to be wearing a blue jump-suit. | |||
It is also revealed in ''Star Fox: Assault'' that Leon also specializes in killing, hence his title as an "assassin" in the instruction booklet and a "killer" in official artwork. Leon is also shown to have sympathy for other reptilian or amphibious creatures (like Slippy). | |||
Leon | |||
Despite his ruthless swagger and love of the hunt, Leon loves to adorn his maniacal disposition to maintain his spot as Star Wolf's assassin. This shows that he is somewhat of a narcissist, and enjoys his feared reputation as the killer, as indicated from his quotes. | |||
Leon's personality in ''[[Star Fox Command]]'' appears to contradict his cold-blooded image. It is implied that, beneath his facade, he has a soft spot for peace. This is hinted at in his profile in the [[Pilot Gallery]] and his rejoicing after defeating the [[Anglar Emperor]] because he claims that he will look forward to parades with flowers and other such niceties. | |||

After Fox was ambushed by the [[Aparoid]]s, Star Wolf revealed their survival and saved him. Leon and Star Wolf followed Star Fox to the [[Beltino Orbital Gate]] and helped them destroy the missiles sent to destroy the base. They also entered the warp to the [[Aparoid Homeworld]]. Before the Star Fox team made it to the [[Aparoid Queen]], Leon with the rest of Star Wolf distracted the queen's guards so that Star Fox could make their move. | After Fox was ambushed by the [[Aparoid]]s, Star Wolf revealed their survival and saved him.

Leon and Falco's rivalry is more noticeable in the game, as both of them make snide remarks about each other, even when cooperatively battling the Aparoids. | |||
