History Characters / KatmanduLeahtrahAndThorinsEra

** At the end of "The Hunt" sub-arc, [[spoiler:Loanzah joins her mother Leah when she retakes her older SecretIdentity as "[[BellyDancer Madame Liana]]", using the name "Madame Loanna" and also using the ''same'' skimpy suit her mother wears]]. It should be noted she was ''seven'' years old at that point.

* PlotHole: There's many incongruences regarding her ancestry and her real kinship with Liska. According with her, she is the descendant from Liska and Rial's line, but in issue #12, Leah explains to a woman having problems with RH-incompatibility that [[spoiler:Panka is related with her bloodline, despite not being from the Mitsel-eman clan]]. To complicate matters ever further, Leah also explained that her family is from the same region and [[spoiler:she is also related with that woman with RH-incompatibility problems, which brings [[ParentalIncest another bigger problem that probably happened after the death of Liska and the rest of the characters from her era]] and probably caused a genetic bottleneck in the region]]. This also means that Leah is a descendant from either [[spoiler:Liska & Rial's line, Liska & Pyndan's one, Shaygin & Liska ([[GlorifiedSpermDonor via Markree]]), Panka & Garreth's, or any combination of these done by their future descendants]]. At the end of the story, her claims about being descendant from Liska and Rial went invalidated by there inconsistences.

** Likewise, her role in the story is quite similar to Princess Shahrazad from the ''Literature/ArabianNights'', since, just like literary counterpart, Leah's role is to tell different stories to her loved ones (Thorin and their children in ''Katmandu'' and King Shahryar in the Arabic tale). The only difference here with the ''Arabian Nights'' is that, while Shahrazad does this in order to save herself from being executed by the king, Leah does just to both kill time and to please her family, and also as part of family tradition in order to keep the story of Liska alive among her descendants.

** In some degree, her role in the story is pretty similar to Caroline Ingalls, Laura's mother, from ''Series/LittleHouseOfThePrairie'', as both being [[BrainyBrunette smart brunettes]] and having similar roles, through more expanded here than in that TV show.

* {{Expy}}: In terms of roles, she is pretty similar to Laura Ingalls from ''Series/LittleHouseOfThePrairie'', as both have personal problems with [[HeightAngst their height]], both being closer to their parents, and both protecting their slibings from bullies and being [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak relative tomboys]]. The only main difference, however, is that, while Laura doesn't consider herself pretty, Loanzah ''doesn't like'' being pretty.

* {{Expy}}: Design-wise, she resembles a lot like Eda Felna, the mother of Erma Felna, from ''ComicBook/AlbedoErmaFelnaEDF'', including same hair color, species, and certain traits on her personality, except that, unlike [[ActualPacifist Eda]], she is not afraid on getting her hands dirty when the need arises.

[floatboxright:

Leahtrah's father and Mahri's husband. He is a healer as is his daughter, just as his ancestors were before him. He is alo notorious for having a very elaborated backstory... for a character which only appears ''[[BitCharacter once]]'' in the whole story. Also notorious for having a dislike for Hoplites like Leah's husband Thorin.

* BitCharacter: For a character with such elaborated backstory, he only appears in the first issue of the ''When Warriors Die'' sub-arc, and he never appears again, along with his wife Mahri. We have to assume he could had passed away at the end of the story due to old age, as he was 57 when Leah married with Thorin and 62 when the latter went to fight against the White River mercenaries.

Leahtrah's mother and Jerush's wife. A housewife who was, before marrying with Jerush, was a temple dancer who danced in honor for the Goddess, something she learnt from her mother when she was a teen, when she then met Jerush and fell on love, through she didn't married with him until she was over 18. Just like her husband, [[BitCharacter none of her backstory is relevant for the plot at all, as she only appears in the same issue like Jerush]][[note]]Outside the fact Leah learnt exotic dancing from her, which was useful during the ''Velites and Hoplites'' sub-arc.[[/note]] the through unlike him, she doesn't harbor any hate against Thorin.

We have to assume that, just like her husband, she could had passed away at the end of the story due to old age, as she was 52 when Leah married with Thorin and 57 when the latter went to fight against the White River mercenaries.

We have to assume he could had passed away at the end of the story due to old age, as he was 57 when he appeared for the first time.

* FantasticRacism: He hates Hoplites, including his daughter Leah's husband Thorin, partly out of principle, due to his job as a healer and partly because of the long-enduring grudges against Hoplites caused by the war.

* MissFanservice: Just like her ancestor, Leah is quite a beauty that can shock many males, beginning with Thorin, of course. Unlike [[ObliviouslyBeautiful Liska]], however, Leah is aware of her natural beauty and she exploit it as much as she can.

* MixAndMashCritters: Since their mother is a Velite cat and their father a Hoplite lion, they are basically feline hybrids that shares some of the features from their parents' respective species.

** At the end of "The Hunt" sub-arc, [[spoiler:Loanzah joins her mother Leah when she retakes her older SecretIdentity as "[[BellyDancer Madame Liana]]", using the name "Madame Loanna", using the ''same'' skimpy suit her mother wears]]. It should be noted she was ''seven'' years old at that point.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: One of ther side-stories published in the Katmandu Annual #1 heavily foreshadows [[spoiler:her future role as a museum curator in the DistantFinale]] when she talks with Thorin about [[spoiler:her current research about the life of Liska]]. Keep in mind that, until that point, most of her stories about her ancestor were reserved only to people closest to Leah, like her children or relatives, at least [[spoiler:until the last arc, when it turns out there's more people outside her family that knows about Liska's life, like Master Cheddar and Valentine, Loanzah's boyfriend]].

* TheMeanBrit: At first, as by WordOfGod, Thorin hails from his world's equivalent of the U.K., while Leah is a Native.
* OutOfFocus: He doesn't appear, nor is mentioned in the epilogue episode at all.
