| ===== AH.com: The Series ===== | After a longer absence, Leo returned to AH.com in 2013.

| His backstory was revealed in [[stories:HEART OF STEEL]] as being the last remaining survivor of an artificial civilisation that idolised its human creators who had died out; however, as their leaders knew in secret, in fact it had been an AI conspiracy that had killed off the humans. Leaders such as [[Paul Spring]], rejecting all the human history and knowledge Leo prized, made the same mistakes and touched off a war which destroyed their civilisation. Leo survived on the AH.com. His Mandaean obsession is said to be due to being originally programmed on a site in Iraq over a Mandaean tomb which also suffered from a radiation leak. | His backstory was revealed in [[stories:HEART OF STEEL]] as being the last remaining survivor of an artificial civilisation that idolised its human creators who had died out; however, as their leaders knew in secret, in fact it had been an AI conspiracy that had killed off the humans.
