Biography[]
Early Life[]
Leon English was born into a lower-class family living in the slums of Terra Nova. Leon was a bright child, working diligently in school and earning excellent grades. Despite the turbulent environment in which he and his family lived, Leon was a very happy child, and he stayed out of trouble.
Leon was facinated with spacecraft, and would often go down to an Alliance naval base near his home to watch fighters and small warships take off and land there. He began to dream of joining the Alliance military and travelling the galaxy in a ship like the ones he saw at the base.
At the age of fourteen, Leon decided that he wanted to become a commissioned officer in the Alliance Marine Corps, but no one believed that the Alliance would take notice of a young man from the slums of Terra Nova, let alone consider him for a commission. However, Leon was determined to achieve his goal. He began to speak frequently with off-duty marines near the naval base, striking up conversations with them, and casually letting them know of his intentions to become an officer. Eventually, Leon became well-known by the marines at the base, and his name worked its way up to the ears of the officer in charge of the base, who, impressed with his stellar grades in school, put him in as a possible commission candidate. During his senior year in high school, Leon received a letter informing him that he had been accepted into Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps program at the University of Terra Nova.
