All Up In My Space
During the events of the STOW Outbreak, Leon finds himself trying to avoid those who have been driven to madness by the Some Type Of Way Virus. He eventually encounters Luke Philip, who is incensed when Leon addresses him as "Truman Philip's brother". As the two commiserate over their mutual feelings of inferiority compared to their respective older brothers, Luke challenges Leon to a fight.

After a back and forth skirmish, Leon's latent Shine power manifests itself through Leon burping, sending out a beam of light which burns the puffer vest that Luke is wearing, forcing him to discard it. Having heard stories about the Shine-Affected, but having never met one in person, Luke is interested, and begins attacking Leon more aggressively, trying to get him to show him his "cool trick". Leon has no idea how to control his newly discovered powers, which randomly explodes out of his mouth through coughs, sneezes, and burps. Luke is left on the defensive trying to dodge the unpredictable beams of light as they narrowly miss him.

The Shine
As a Shine-affected, Leon absorbs light particles from the environment, and channels it into energy. Leon initially has very limited control over this ability, as the Light often manifests as random bursts of raw power through one or more of his orifices, in the form of burps, farts, coughs, and sneezes. Leon is eventually able to do this "on command".
