Backstory
Levi was born in Prehevil, the capital of Bohemia.He was raised by an alcoholic father, with whom his mother was in an abusive relationship. This difficult situation likely persisted for a long time, as Levi didn’t have many fond memories of his father.
One night, after a heated argument between his parents, Levi's mother rushed into his room, shut the door, and held it closed with all her strength, which did little to protect her from the drunkard’s wrath. At this point, Levi had two choices: stand up to his father or pray to a God, making a pact that would bind him for the rest of his life. In both instances his mother would die by his father’s hands, and the man would continue to waste away, unable to care for the young boy.
After being taken away from his father, Levi was sent to St. Domek's Orphanage. However, his life barely improved, as the staff was highly abusive toward the children. Additionally, rumors of orphans disappearing without a trace began to circulate.
His time at the orphanage was cut short when the Eastern Union began conscripting every able-bodied person to fight for the motherland, including young children. At just 13 years old, Levi became a soldier and was given the option to specialize in handguns, rifles, or trench guns.
Levi became an exceptionally capable soldier for his age. As the war dragged on, though, he witnessed many young children being drafted and dying as cannon fodder, which left him with a very bitter attitude and nihilistic view of the world.
As time went on, he was eventually given command of his own squadron of child soldiers and assigned what amounted to a suicide mission with little chance of success, as the upper echelons of the military considered their soldiers expendable.
Whether Levi fulfilled the mission or refused to, it took a toll on his already diminishing psyche. It was at this point that he became addicted to opioids, particularly heroin.
Eventually, he could no longer bear the trauma and stress, and made the decision to desert before the Eastern Union could punish or court-martial him. With nowhere else to go, he returned to the only place he had ever called home: Prehevil.
Unbeknownst to him, his hometown had changed drastically since his departure, and he was now set to become one of the contestants in the Festival of Termina.

[Under construction...]Recruiting
On Day 1 Morning, Levi can be found in the basement of the Old House south of the Mayor's Manor, in a corridor near the Imperfect circle. Upon getting close to him, he will flee from the basement and find refuge in the kitchen of Restaurant Bílý Vůl during the morning and evening of Day 1, shivering from withdrawal. Levi will join the party here if given Heroin.If not recruited before Day 1 Night, Levi will be attacked by Caligura on Day 1 Night and Day 2 Morning in the south-east alley of Prehevil - West (News Agency), where he will die if the player does not intervene on Day 2 Morning. If the player goes near the alleyway or enters from Prehevil - Back Alleys (Sylvian's Square) and leaves without intervening, Caligura will kill Levi. If saved here, he can be found in the Orphanage, although if the altercation was approached from the north, the player will need to follow Levi into an alley in the south of Sylvian's Square before he goes the Orphanage. After moving to the Orphanage, he can be recruited by speaking to him there.
If Levi survives Caligura's attack but is not recruited, he will moonscorch into Weeping scope in Prehevil - West (News Agency) on Day 2 evening, firing at Karin and Marina. If neither of them are present or Weeping scope is approached, he will run through Prehevil - North-West to the Orphanage. If not dealt with, he will follow the player into the Orphanage (Rher Dimension) and chase them through the trenches.
Levi will also moonscorch into Weeping scope on Day 3 night.
Dropping Levi off at the train can make Levi vanish from the game, making him unavailable for recruiting again.
Weeping Scope
Levi will be moonscorched if he survives to Day 2 Evening without being recruited. He can first be found on the road leading toward the Orphanage, where he will fire on the player. If approached, he will retreat to behind the orphanage's gates. Marina and Karin may be found here if not already recruited, sheltering behind cars. On Day 3, Weeping Scope will also fire on the player inside the halls of the Orphanage until approached, in which he will retreat again.If not defeated here or chased down, he will be encountered again inside one of the orphanage's classrooms, curled up in a fetal position. He will not attack the player unless attacked first. If you enter the Orphanage's Rher sigil without dealing with Weeping Scope by then, he will chase you throughout the trenches at rapid speed.
On Day 3 Night, Levi will moonscorch and turn into Weeping scope.
