History: Lean Il Lupe started small. He was designed as an intelligent security "chameleon" protocol for the computer of a hacker called DaVinci. As the protocol, Lean was supposed to change the external security format of the system, so Guardians and the authorities could not track it. Unfortunately, as Lean's protocl became more experienced, it also became more intelligent. Soon, it achieve full self-awareness and tried to prevent DaVinci from using his own computer. When DaVinci tried to delete the rebellious protocol, it disguised itself as a harmless word file, then transferred itself off DaVinci's computer.
The protocol gained strength by residing in other computers until it compiled enough to form a sprite body for itself. Then, while in the system of Great Codex, the protocol/sprite learned that its true format was 'virus'. Fueled by ambition, the virus, who chose to call himself Lean Il Lupe, plotted global domination. The first system he conquered was one of the abandoned Omega-class systems, dubbed Omega-Cragis. He completely subjugated the natives--rock-like monsters called 'golems', and built a base there. The only roadblock in his path is his creator, DaVinci, and his friends.

Character: Lean is a truly evil virus with no regards for other life. He uses his enslaved golems to do hard labor, and will incinerate anyone who dares oppose him. He dares a passing resemblance to his creator, DaVinci, though his skin, hair, and eyes are different colors (bleak gray, silver, glowing blue-gray, respectively). He uses his viral powers through a black and silver cane, everything from fireballs to opening vidwindows to opening portals to flying. When angered, Lean growls like the wolf for which he is named.

Hacking Ability: Respectable. While not the most skilled hacker in the world, Lean was able to crack government firewalls to access Omega-Cragis. Following a partial merging with DaVinci, he was able to crack the code for the Resonate System.
