* CainAndAbel: The Abel to his sister Ani. Even after her attempt to kill him, he still felt worried for her, [[spoiler:even forgiving her after Lucius' defeat]].

* FirstGuyWins: He's the first love interest Raen encounters [[spoiler:since the latter was a baby]].
* FlechetteStorm: He carries daggers he throws as projectiles.
* HeroesPreferRedheads: His romance route in a nutshell.
* HistoryRepeats: [[spoiler:His family crest is the crest of Sid Caeham's old royal guard. Since Raen is technically part of Aurelia Cavellan royalty and therefore related to Sid Caeham royalty, this means Leos is unwittingly carrying his lineage's tradition of protecting royalty in his romance route.]]
* {{Hypocrite}}: He taught Raen that playing dirty during a fight is important, only to call Sylvir out for doing the same thing when they were sparring.
* InTheBlood: He was born to a family of assassins, who were all given similar Judgements, and any children who received different ones were [[IHaveNoSon disowned]].

* RescueRomance: [[spoiler:He saved Raen's life as a baby by taking him to Matron Aralla's care despite being told to kill him.]]

* NiceMeanAndInBetween: The mean to Fawn's nice and Leos' in-between.
* SourOutsideSadInside: His habit of mocking others is his way of pushing others away before they could befriend him. A few people managed to do this, such as Ashe. This is attributed to the backstabbing, lying, and cheating he has witnessed among nobility like his parents since his childhood, jading his perception of love.
* TemptingFate: After mentioning stories of people going on murderous rages in the Amaranth Forest, he decides to go through it anyway, believing that everyone will be fine.
* TroubledButCute: The pressure to conform to a cutthroat aristocratic social circle has jaded his view of humanity.
* WellDoneSonGuy: He is trained from a young age to behave a certain way and never bring shame to his family, yet no matter how hard he tries, his mother never approves of him.
