*'''Telepathic Status''': None. In fact distrusts most telepaths and empaths, thinks of telepathy as a "crutch."

*'''Quarters:''' Located adjacent to the Diplomatic Guest quarters on Deck 3. Slightly larger than normal crew quarters to accomodate a small, personal office space. Tends to be cluttered, with lots of boooks and files scattered around. Admiral Nibble's tank is in Leland's bedroom to the right of his bed.
*'''Office:''' Formal and organized. Features subtle hints at Starfleet military supremacy (antique phaser collection, military starship schematics framed, and a changeable, framed map of the territory of whichever species he's dealing with).
*'''Favorite Drink:''' Whiskey and soda. 
*'''Favorite Food:''' Favors traditional earth cuisine. Fancies himself a better chef than he actually is, though he has some talent.
*'''Habits:''' Leland's hand are constantly on the move, unless he's making a point... At whish time he either folds them in front of him or clasps them behind his back.
*'''Mannerisms:''' Often exasperated when others offer opinions on his area of expertise. Tends to be wordy and pedantic when explaining himself.
*'''Religion/Spiritual Devotion:''' An Atheist, and rather evangelistic about it.
*'''Hobbies and Pastimes:''' Loves history and is often seen reading in his spare time. Cooking. Fish keeping.
*'''Likes:''' Being a contrarian. Has a secret romantic streak and watches romance vids when no one is looking. Admiral Nibbles.
*'''Dislikes:''' People who abuse thier authority. Species who tend to be militaristic (Klingons especially, but this extends to most warlike species such as Andorians and Cardassians). Peas.
*'''Ambitions and Goals:''' To shape Federation policy on a large scale. To eventually find someone he can open up to besides his fish.
*'''Achievements in Life:''' Graduated second in his class at the Academy (kind of irks him). Student teacher of diplomatic relations at the Academy.
*'''Disappointments in Life:''' The maiming of Jonathan Cumar for which he holds himself responsible. Secretly worries he may have a drinking problem.
*'''Temperament:''' Thinks he's far more charming than he actually is, but IS every bit as smart as he thinks he is. His social awkwardness when not engaged in an official capacity will often lead people to wonder how good a diplomat he could possibly be... However when "on the job" Leland is remarkably effecient and persuasive. 
*'''Mental problems (complexes and phobias)''': Desperately competative. Has a great fear of rejection so his brusque manner is designed to keep people at a safe distance.
*'''Physical Limitations:''' Two differntly colored eyes as a result of a head trauma suffered during the Klingon raid of Lookout. Otherwise nothing notable. Although he is perhaps one of the worst shots with a phaser in Starfleet history.
*'''Strengths:''' Brilliant tactical and astro-political anylist. Considered by many at the Academy to be a worthy sucsessor to Spock in time.
*'''Weaknesses:''' Argumentative with his peers (and superiors, at times), arrogant and sarcastic socially.
