Leonidas

Leonidas, also known as Leo, was a Historian who was changed by the Epoch into a Hierophant called Traulus.

Early life
Leo believed that he had been married to Charis and had a ring that he believed belonged to her, but, when he spoke to her, she told him that she was called Euanthe and was married to Giorgos. (AUDIO: The Temple of Questions) He kept the ring as a reminder that he had lost somebody despite the fact that his instincts telling him that he had never actually been married.

Leo became a Historian after walking past a number of people and wondering if they had been part of his life at some point. (AUDIO: Private Enemy No. 1) Whilst walking around Atlantis, he met Ruth, who believed that she had had a close relationship with him and Charis despite him having no memory of every having met her. He explained this to Ruth and introduced her to the Historians.

Like several other Historians, Leo and Ruth found the plastic-like floor underground, but could not work out what it was and were unable to take samples to test. Following the death of the Kraken, Leo, like many others, forgot all about it and its attacks over the years. (AUDIO: The Temple of Questions)

Working with Benny
Leo heard Pallis's broadcast and used the lyrics of the advert jingle that she sang to identify other Historians. Upon learning of Bernice Summerfield, Leo searched for her and took over Nicomedes' stall in the market to find an excuse to speak to her and quote the jingle, which attracted her attention when she remembered the parchment that Acanthus had given her. Leo took her to meet Ruth and the trio went to the Great Leader's palace to investigate the strange floor that the Historians had found underground, but they did not get any answers. (AUDIO: The Temple of Questions)

Following the Great Leader's destruction, Leo kept Benny confined to a safe house for her safety and grew closer to her, eventually having sex with her. He drugged her in an attempt to keep her from attending the Senate as the Hierophants wanted her to and went without her to the meeting, where Gaudium confirmed that the Great Leader was dead and the Epoch changed the Historians into Hierophants, with Leo becoming Traulus. He joined Benny and Ruth at the top of the spire as the world was consumed by nothing and offered to make Benny a Hierophant, but she refused and he disappeared. (AUDIO: Private Enemy No. 1)

Legacy
On Lyndyaz, Ruth used the name "Ruth Leonidas". Benny told her that he would have been happy that she had done so. (AUDIO: Brand Management)

In a simulation created in a museum about Benny's life, Leo talked about their little family. This simulation later helped her to defeat a horde of the enemies created from her memory. (AUDIO: Many Happy Returns)
