Romeo Leoni

Romeo Leoni is a member of special forces Blood who comes from the Magnolia Compass orphanage. He is generally the positive moodmaker of the group, but has little intellectual information on complex matters, similar to Kouta's personality. Romeo entered Blood as the second member, a year before Nana and the Protagonist (God Eater 2). He knows much the new trends and idols. Despite being the player and Nana's senior, it is revealed that he has yet to be able to use Blood Arts and has not unlocked his power of blood yet.

Biography
At the start of the game, he meets the new recruits Nana and the protagonist and gets along with them. Soon, Gilbert McLane arrives to Blood and Romeo finds himself in arguments against Gilbert many times. When the protagonist unlocks the Power of Blood and scars a Marduk's eye, Romeo and the rest of the team arrive in time to chase off the scar-eyed Marduk. After Ciel's arrival and everyone's awakenings of Power of Blood and Blood Arts, Romeo is the only one who has yet to awaken his powers. This leads to his morale lowering in battle and is confronted by his fellow Blood members about his unusual behavior during Julius's temporary absence. After getting into an argument with Gil about his current state, Romeo reveals the feelings of inferiority he felt by being the weakest in Blood and runs away to the outskirts of Anagura's residential areas. At the outskirts, he meets an old couple who kindly listen to Romeo's troubles while giving him shelter from the ongoing Red Rain shower. After the rain, Romeo thanks the couple and is about to return but a sudden Aragami attack occurs so he calls for back-up from Blood. After regrouping, they beat the Aragami attack and Romeo apologizes for his selfish actions to which everyone welcome him back and reply that a cheerful Romeo is who every likes best and that Gilbert was worried about Romeo. At the end of this cutscene, Romeo's power is shown to unlock. Later, after explaining Romeo explains his former troubles to the protagonist on a mission, Blood checks the Scarred Barricade when Romeo sees Red Rain clouds coming to Anagura which leads to everyone returning to the shelter. When all think that the red rain guard can be left to the God Arc Soldiers, Dr. Rachel Claudius shuts down the God Arc Soldiers as part of her plot. Soon after this, Romeo finds that the old couple from the outskirts were not present at the shelter and a radio call from the shelter's North Gate that a white Aragami (Marduk and Garms) have broken through. Romeo grows worried and wears a hooded coat to run out in the red rain to check on the old couple. Julius follows him and they defeat a Garm before the scarred Marduk and other Garms arrive and strike down the two. Romeo then, at the moment before the Marduk can attack an unconscious Julius, activates an unknown mid-ranged Blood Art slash that hits a Garm but misses the Marduk which attacks Romeo and flings him into the air before fatally gashing his stomach in mid-air. Romeo then gets up and activates his Power of Blood which drives away all the nearby Aragami. Julius then wakes up to find a dying Romeo in the red rain and talks to him to keep Romeo awake. After telling Romeo that the old couple was saved thanks to him, Romeo apologizes to Julius for always causing trouble for the everyone before dying in a grieving Julius's arms. Romeo's funeral is carried out with members of Blood, Anagura, and the old couple attending while Yuno sings a song in hipes it would reach him in death. Romeo's death was the key stimulus of Dr. Rachel's plot in convincing Julius to join her in her God Arc Soldier Research Project which was a disguised ploy to use a now Black Plague infected Julius as the new Singularity to devour the world. Romeo's grave is located in the Friar's Roof Garden and is viewable when visited.
