Bam! Back and ready to continue 'givin out the arguments.

To adress points as they rise.

@Formerhunter I was hoping someone would rase a point about Leo's...infamous weapon. Candidus is by no means the weapon that will be held as a benchmark of invention, however, it does what is was designed to well.

Beat things down, hard.

Refering to his weapon 'breaking' I assume you mean either Leo's elemination as a younger kid in his backstory, or Candidus last-power. Allow me to stress this.

Candidus is not fragile by any means of the word, it is thick, wooded and iron and though held together by his faith, and leo's faith is by no means in short supply.

The only time it has 'shattered' in combat was after eight brutal rounds of combat (and at this point in time, it was a simple stick, Leo's had a few years of time to make some improvements since then). It was pushing the limits of what an untrained kid with devotion could do.

Alternetly, you might be refering to Candidus fire flails, in which case I also want to say that infusing Candidus with fire dust is a tactic of desperation. When all else seems lost, Leo can give his blows a little more punch to them, he's been in enough brawls to know a broken weapon is, as you said, game over. So unless the risk of loss is great enough to warrent using it, he'll tend to avoid activating it if he can.

That being said, most of the time, after a using it, it just leaves him with a very sturdy wooden club, not preferable, but not defenceless.

Anyway, thanks for giving me a segway to clear this us!
