* Based on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leib-Olmai Leib-Olmai], the god of good luck in Sami mythology who appears to humans in the form of a bear.
* Leib is based on the deity in [[Wikipedia:Sami_mythology|Sami mythology]] named [[Wikipedia:Leib-Olmai|Leib-Olmai]] (translated to "Alder Man" from Sami). A forest deity, god of good luck, and a hunter god; he is considered a guardian of wild animals and would protect hunters especially against bears, and ensure a successful hunt. He also appears to humans in the form of a bear.
* His [[Sacred Artifact]] is the sap of an [[Wikipedia:Alder|alder tree]] as the deity, Leib-Olmai, is known to have lived in alder trees, referenced in his skill "Spirit of the Sacred Tree"
** The name "Leib" can also mean "blood" and the red sap from alder bark, symbolic of blood, hunters would be splattered all over with it after returning with a dead bear. This is referenced in his charge skill "Blood of the Alder" and his skill "Prayer Painting Bear".
* Part of the [[Beast Tamers]] and partnered with {{Transient icon|Cu Sith}} as the "beast" while Leib is the "tamer".
** The guild partnership system is based on transients that could nullify dangerous Rules or abilities with their own. Cu Sith's ability to cause death or heavy damage with his howls are negated by Leib's Rule of displacing damage and death onto trees nearby thereby preventing it from harming anyone.
