Appearance: Usually in Half Panther Form, Linus has the usual cat ears, tails and claws. He has a jet black bedhead type hair appearance (Some hair hanging down and some sticking up as far as 6 inches) He has hazel eyes and freckles on his face. He is in surprisingly good shape for a child, with a six pack and toned muscles from training with Leon. He stand 5’1 in height and 91 pounds in weight. He wears a oversized white dojo uniform and black sweat pants. He wears sandals made of wood on his feet and his sword is on his back.
History: Linus was born of a poor family and spent the first 3 years of his life in a ghetto, constantly in danger of death. Then, his families fears came true, one day a bunch of thugs came and killed his parents, stole all of his things and sold Linus into slave labor on a faraway island. His new owners, seeing they were duped into buying a 3 year old at full price, kicked him to the street to dye.
After a day or two, a man took him in and raised him, hoping to use him for slave labor. When he was 6, the man put him to work. His job was to catch fish, and at first he sucked, but one day it all changed. As he was walking home from his job, he found a cool looking fruit. Seeing as how he only got bread and water, he decided to eat it. He suddenly grew a tail, claws and cat ears. After that, he discovered he could turn into a full panther and catching fish was a cinche. After a while he realized he didn’t need to stay where he was and hid in a boat leaving the island.
The crew on the ship soon learned of his presence and kicked him out of the ship. The island he was now on was home to one of the only casinos in the south. He found a wallet and decided to go gamble. He won lots of money that night, too much for him to remember, so with that, he rented an apartment and went to the casino every weekend, usually winning. This went on until he was 10 and the Destroyers at sea docked in his island. He saw L and begged him to teach him how to sword fight. L agreed as long as he would do chores for them. He is currently being trained by L and working on the destroyers ship. The crew was disbanded now he l and Thor are searching for a new one. Thor split up with them and went to the Steel Village and L and Linus joined the Blazing Sword Pirates.
Personality: First off, he hates slave labor with a burning passion. So when he sees it happening, he does his best to stop it. But he loves everything else, he is a true example of child innocents. He is so happy it is almost sickening but on the battle field, its different. He attacks with rage and precision, obviously taught well. He sees L as a father figure and looks up to him for everything. Him and Thor are more just friends. He especially loves fishing, and by fishing I mean getting on a rowboat and catching them in his full panther teeth.
