Personality
His middle name is Scott. He became interested in the bizarre hunting incidents that happened in Raccoon City and he applied for a position on the Raccoon City Police Department after graduating from the police academy. Although he has little practical experience, he's able to make up for it with his youth and abilities and there's very little that frightens him. He has a strong sense of justice and burns with the pride of being a policeman, so he throws all of his efforts into rescuing fragile survivors.
On September 29, his first day as a Raccoon City police officer, he made the mistake of oversleeping and didn't leave for work until after sunset. He dressed himself in his newly issued armored police uniform, jumped into his beloved jeep and drove to Raccoon City. Ironically, it was this unforgivable mistake that saved his life. The whole city, including the police HQ where he was supposed to be, had become a den of monsters.
The reason he was late for work was a party the previous night. He had gotten drunk in a motel, trying to forget about the pain of breaking up with his girlfriend. If it hadn't been for that event, he may have been turned into a living corpse like the other policeman. Afterward, his meeting with a zombie on the road caused him to meet Claire Redfield, who was searching for her older brother.
Being a policeman, Leon made the protection of Claire and the little girl, Sherry, his single focus. Always faithful to women, Leon fough desperately to help Claire, even though he was unhappy about her making her own decisions. While searching for an escape route out of Raccoon City, he became aware of Umbrella's secret plot and threw himself into a long battle against them.
It must not be forgotten that behind Leon's actions is a single woman: Ada Wong. Leon is in love with her, the woman who allied with Albert Wesker to steal the G-virus. Then, as a result of her death, his fighting spirit is rekindled. He swears to take revenge against Umbrella, who stole his love from him.
After escaping Raccoon City, Leon saw Claire off on her continuing search for her older brother, Chris. He asked the U.S. Army, now deployed outside town, to protect Sherry. After contacting an intelligence officer working for the U.S. goverment, he began to investigate Umbrella by himself. Then, when he learned that Claire was in danger on Rockfort Island, he relayed that information to her older brother, Chris.
Eventually, Leon joined the U.S. goverment and began training as a Special Agent. When the President's daughter was kipnapped, Leon was sent in to rescue her and bring her home safely and although he completed his mission successfully he got a lot more than he had bargained for.
Blood Type
Some interesting information I found about how the Japanese consider people with blood type A to be:
While outwardly calm, they have such high standards (perfectionists) that they tend to be balls of nerves on the inside. Type A's are the most artistic of the blood groups. They can be shy, are conscientious, trustworthy, and sensitive.
"People with blood type A have a deep-rooted strength that helps them stay calm in a crisis when everyone else is panicking. However, they tend to avoid confrontation, and feel very uncomfortable around people. A types are shy and sometimes withdrawn. They seek harmony and are very polite, but all the same feel that they never really fit in with others. A types are very responsible. If there is a job to be done, they prefer to take care of it themselves. These people crave success and are perfectionists. They are also very creative, and the most artistic of all the blood types, most likely because of their sensitivity."
For the most part I do agree with this analysis, especially the fact that they stay calm in a crisis when everyone else is panicking - that to me definitely screams Leon. He is also very trustworthy and shows his sensitive side on numerous occasions (especially where Ada is concerned). However, I wouldn't say that he tends to avoid confrontation because in his job he HAS to be able to confront anything and anyone that stands in the way of him completing his mission. We can't actually say if he is creative or not but his hairstyle and dress sense suggests an artistic flair ;)
