User blog comment:CharlieCat/Sir Leon needs a backstory :)/@comment-4832945-20111130045104

We know that Guinevere's mother was a maid in his household, which tells us that that he already had a good relationship with Gwen and Elyan. And (no offense) I think Percival's character was made so they can have a decent amount of knights in the Knights of the Round Table. But Leon's character was originally made for someone to be in a rivalry with Arthur (The Once and Future Queen), so Leon's character was made to be unique, while Percival was made for an addition to the cast. But then again, Leon grew up in Camelot and we already have a good idea what boyhood life is there, since every episode is mainly set there. But I think there should be an episode where Leon has a LARGER role (maybe just him and Merlin), that will be good.
