BIOGRAPHY

Leonard Hughes was born on June 15th, 1998, in New York City, to Amanda Parker and Markus Hughes. His father abandoned the family when Leonard was still an infant, leaving his mother to raise Leonard and his older brother, Joshua. Amanda worked as a waitress to provide for her sons, but the financial hardships were too much. Joshua, seeking an escape, turned to dealing drugs, while Leonard sought out a different way, working part-time at a computer repair shop during high school while focusing on his studies.

However, shortly after Leonard’s high school graduation, his older brother was gravely injured in a car accident, leaving him in a coma. Having to pay for egregious medical expenses, and being left to deal with Joshua’s debt to a local dealer, Leonard found himself forced to dive into criminal work. The young man started as a dealer, then moved to debt collection, and eventually became tasked with carrying out killings. His descent into violence was gradual, but inescapable. 

Nonetheless, his luck ran out when he was arrested in a sting operation and sentenced to life in prison, and nearly five years into his sentence, he was selected for the SCP Foundation’s D-Class program. However, Leonard’s path took a turn when the convoy transporting him was intercepted by the Chaos Insurgency. Given a choice between certain death or a second chance to control his own fate, Leonard joined the Insurgency without hesitation. He was then sent to Cell-Ω-2, where he would join the great cause.
