Biography
Buon giorno! My name is Orazio Leone. I'll tell you about my father's story. My father was the youngest son of a merchant. A king decreed that whoever found his daughter within eight days could marry her. Dad's two older brothers tried, but they failed and lost their heads. Dad got advice from an old woman saying that he should buy a golden lion statue that he could hide inside. When he got the statue, he hid inside. Dad could only use it overnight. The king hid it down a secret stairway with twelve identical women. Dad met the princess, who promised to wear a white sash. When the old woman took back the lion, Dad went to the place where the princess was hidden and found her in her white sash. He was able to marry her afterwards.

I've got a decent home - I've got my parents, as well as three older sisters, Vittoria, Rosa, and Eugenia. I go to Ever After High, where I'm doing good, though I'm not very popular. I am good at making statues, and I sculpt statues of all sizes. Mostly I make statues of lions. I like making the big ones that I can fit inside. I'm a pretty tall guy, so it takes a lot of effort. But a little magic can help sometimes. It can be hard being in the statues, since they're a pain to move around. Still, I am a Royal and I like doing it...

One issue that I sometimes have is that I'm autistic. I tend to get obsessive with my statues and try to keep them in order. It's hard for me to accept people disrupting my routine because I like things in a certain order. Sometimes I make lion noises as well.

I have a girlfriend named Katharina. She's very feisty, and she helps move around my statues.
