Leeza Laforet

Leeza Laforet (リーザ・ラフォレット, Rīza Raforetto) also romanized as Liza Laforet, is Huey Laforet's and Renee Paramedes Branvillier's youngest daughter. She is actually a host of the homunculus Hilton.

Leeza is fiercely loyal to Huey and attempts to exact revenge on anyone who so much as lays a finger on him. She is a member of the Lamia and uses chakrams to attack from the shadows.

Appearance
Leeza bears a striking resemblance to her father and her older sister, Chané Laforet, sharing their black hair and golden eyes. She is usually depicted wearing a white strapped dress.

Personality
Leeza acts like an eager young girl. She is easily excited and talks childishly with Huey and the Lamia, but often switches to more mature tones when communicating with outsiders or when she is speaking as Hilton. Despite her immature attitude, the topics Leeza discusses with either Huey or the Lamia tend to be macabre. She constantly asks Huey for permission to kill people, and tells him about how much she wants to kill.

Pre-Series
Leeza is the biological daughter of Huey Laforet and Renee Paramedes Branvillier. When she was a newborn, Huey gave her Hilton's "water," transforming her into a hive mind vessel. Leeza is part of the Lamia and serves as both an assassin and an information gatherer with Hilton's male counterpart, Sham.

1933 - The Slash
Leeza provides the Lamia with information in September 1933, relaying orders from Huey to them when needed. Later, she fights Claire Stanfield with her chakrams during his fight with Christopher Shouldered on the Mist Wall, and finds that her attacks are blocked by Chané. She asks Chané if she'd take Huey's side or Claire's side if the two fight someday, throwing Chané off-guard. The question rattles Chané, and Leeza nearly nails her with a chakram (only for Claire to save her). Later, Leeza is revealed to be in Alcatraz with Huey, where she informs him of the encounter and asks if she is his favorite child.

1934 - Alice in Jails/Peter Pan in Chains
Leeza stays with Huey while he is incarcerated in Alcatraz. She contacts Isaac Dian in 1934 to ask him about Firo Prochainezo and the Grand Panacea; she later attempts to kidnap Ladd Russo to use as barter against Graham Specter, but ends up unconscious and in chains herself. When she comes to, she finds Huey's eye is missing and decides to exact revenge on Firo (who'd forcibly removed Huey's eye). She uses Hilton's consciousness to steal Firo's eye via her birds.When she threatens to do the same to Firo's friends, Firo's ferocious reactions and threats of killing Huey in retaliation end up scaring her.

Ladd arrives on the scene; when he notices that Firo is under attack he decides to kill Leeza - and it turns out that she is his favorite "type" to kill. He destroys the building Leeza is standing on, making her lose her balance; Leeza falls to the ground where Ladd is waiting to kill her. As she falls, Hilton sobs in fear of the vessel (Leeza) dying - which would sever her special connection to Huey.

Firo catches Leeza in his arms, and receives Ladd's punch in her stead. After he convinces Ladd not to kill her, Leeza asks Firo why he saved her. He surprises her by responding that it was simply the right thing to do. Firo leaves with the guards for medical attention, and Leeza is taken in for questioning since no-one knows how she was smuggled onto the island. Internally, Leeza is in turmoil: she feels like she should despise Firo but cannot bring herself to. In spite of herself, she admires Firo for his actions. Later she returns Firo's eye with another vessel (Annie) in New York, having developed a crush on him.

1935 - A Deep Marble/Dr. Feelgreed/The Grateful Bet
In February 1935, Leeza and Chané patrol the Runoratas' casino party at Ra's Lance looking for Nader. It is the first time the two sisters have worked together, and Leeza is much more open to her sister than she'd previously been. She asks Chané again whom she would support if Huey and Claire fought, though this time the question is more out of curiosity then maliciousness. Chané is about to decide upon an answer when Leeza spots Nader.

Leeza calls him a traitor, and orders him to call her Leeza instead of Hilton. Despite her own vendetta against him, she allows Chané her chance at revenge against Nader. As Chané attacks, Leeza notices a smoke bomb warns Chané, sacrificing a bird to save her sister from any harm. Leeza recognizes the bomb as Rail's and yells at them. Nader escapes with Rail, and Leeza asks Chané if she is all right. Leeza becomes frightened when she notices how determined and lethal Chané is after the confrontation.

It is later revealed that Chané and Leeza's actions are a diversion for something else, though the 'what' is not specified.

Relationships
Huey Laforet - Huey is Leeza's biological father. She stayed with him in his cell in Alcatraz. Huey claims that she is his favorite daughter (over Chané), but this is certainly a falsehood. Leeza is exceptionally loyal to her father and will do anything for him. However, in the event that he is hurt Leeza will occasionally disobey his orders and exact revenge.

Chané Laforet - Chané is Leeza's older sister. Before Chané met Leeza in person, Leeza spied on her as Hilton. During her fight with Claire alongside Christopher Shouldered, Chané protected Vino from Leeza's chakrams, much to Leeza's ire. Leeza talks with Huey about how she would like to kill Chané, but abstains due to Huey's requests. Still, Leeza hopes to live with Chané and Huey as family...someday. Leeza first meets Chané face-to-face in 1935 when doing reconnaissance.

Renee Paramedes Branvillier - Renee is the mother of both Chané and Leeza. Renee later confirms their relationship when Claire Stanfield catches her attempting to break into the Runorata manor. She and Leeza have never met - it is clear that if they do Renee will use Leeza for her experiments (just like she would with Chané).

Claire Stanfield - Claire is Leeza's brother-in-law. They haven't met formally, but it is clear from their fight that Leeza is not fond of him. .

Firo Prochainezo - Leeza swears to exact revenge upon Firo after he steals Huey's eye. Using the birds under Hilton's control, Leeza attacks him in Alcatraz's prison yard and takes one of his eyes...and ends up falling in love with him after he saves her from Ladd Russo. She returns his eye to him in New York as Annie, a waitress at the Alveare under Hilton's control. The two communicate through Annie during 1935, when Firo plans to meet with Huey and form a plan.

Abilities
Leeza uses chakrams to attack her opponents while hidden. As a hive mind homunculus, she also controls a large but unknown number of vessels to collect information and act as different people. She has a whole flock of bird vessels under her command.
