"Why do these people talk to me...? I... I don't have anything to offer to them..."
Levi is a playable character and a potential party member in Fear & Hunger 2: Termina. An ex-soldier who has fought in wars since he was 13 years old, Levi excels at ranged combat and has a great aim with most firearms. If not dealt with properly, Levi will turn into Weeping scope due to Moonscorch on Day 2 Evening.
Lore
Levi was born in Prehevil, the capital of Bohemia.
Levi was sired by a drunken father and given birth to by a woman who was in an abusive relationship with the mentioned drunkard. It seems to have gone on for a long while, considering Levi didn't have that much fond memories of the drunkard in question.
One night though, after a heated argument between the two parental figures, the mother rushed into Levi's room, shut the door and held it there with all her might. It did little good to save her from the drunkard's wrath. Levi could either at this point, stand up to his father or pray to a God (praying to said God will make him have a pact with them for the rest of his life). She would die by the drunkard's hands, and the drunkard would continue to waste away, unable to care for the young Levi now.
After being taken away from his father, Levi was sent to St. Domek's Orphanage. However, it didn't do him much better considering the staff there treated the kids awfully and there were rumours circulating around the place on the occasional disappearance of orphans, leaving no trace on why they disappeared.
He didn't stay there for long as the Eastern Union began 'recruiting' (conscription is more likely the answer), every able-bodied person to fight for the motherland, no matter their age. It essentially made Levi a child soldier, as he was only 13 at that time. He would specialize in either handguns, rifles, or trenchguns.
Levi was an exceptional and capable soldier, despite his age. However, he started to become bitter and nihilistic as he kept on seeing kids his age and younger being dragged into the war and dying as cannon fodder the longer the war dragged on.
As time went on, he was eventually given his own squadron of child soldiers that he was in charge of. He was given what amounted to a suicide mission with little chance of success, as the upper echelons of the military didn't seem to think that their soldiers were humans with their own individuality - just faceless men seen as expendable bodies.
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 decided to desert and run away before the Eastern Union could punish him and court-martial him. Since he had nowhere left to go, he went back to the only place he knew that he called home: Prehevil.
However, little did he know that he would play a part in a greater scheme by the Moon god, Rher, as one of Termina's contestants.
Personality
Levi is a nervous loner who seems reluctant to grow close to others. Once the train arrives, he immediately flees into the city, and will initially retreat from the player when approached.
Throughout the festival, Levi suffers from both paranoia and the effects of heroin withdrawal. At first, he believes the other contestants are hunting for him, causing him to withdraw from them whenever possible.
Though he is often quiet and reserved, Levi can warm up to the other passengers after being recruited.
He desires to leave his past behind.
Gameplay traits
- Has Knife and Army jumpsuit equipped.

As a party member
If recruited, Levi will have Gun proficiency skill learned, Army jumpsuit equipped and a Rifle .303 Mk I with 4 .303 Ammo. He will also be inflicted with the Withdrawal status effect.
Location and recruiting
Levi must be found in the old house basement on Day 1 Morning outside of the Mayor's Manor, near the ladders that are next to the Imperfect circle. Upon getting close to him, he will flee from the basement and find refuge in the basement kitchen of Restaurant Bílý Vůl during the Morning and Evening, shivering from withdrawal. Levi will join the party here if given Heroin.
If not recruited before Day 1 Night, Levi will find himself on an altercation with Caligura on Day 1 Night and Day 2 Morning in the south east section of West Prehevil, where he will die if the player does not intervene on Day 2 Morning. If the player enters the area from Sylvian's Square and leaves without intervening, Caligura will kill Levi. If saved here, he can be found in the Orphanage. If the altercation was approached from the north, the player will need to chase Levi into an alley before he shows up in the Orphanage.
Beware that due to a bug in the game, dropping Levi off at the train can make Levi vanish from the game, making him unavailable for recruiting again.

Strategy
Levi's battle style is identical to Karin's. He will use Shoot every single round unless his arms are removed. Shoot deals a moderate amount of damage and has a chance to inflict bleeding. Levi's arms are a single target, as he uses them both to hold his rifle. In the case the player dismembers him, he will use Tackle instead, a much less damaging attack.

Trivia
- According to game creator Miro Haverinen, Levi was initially named 'Eleven,' representing his position as soldier number 11 in his child soldier squad. However, the name underwent a change due to the association with the character Eleven from the Stranger Things series. Despite the alteration, Haverinen had become attached to the name Eleven and decided to find a substitute that retained a similar sound, steering away from the numeral concept.
- Although he is named "Boy with the overalls", he is actually wearing coveralls.
- The orphanage where he was sent to was St. Domek's orphanage, as seen in the map.
- Levi has an interest in piano, which can be discovered if he is taken to PRHVL Bop. He will immediately head to the piano and inspect it. If the player asks if he can play piano, he will play a few notes and admit that while he doesn't know much, he used to watch his mother play before her death. He expresses an interest in learning, but also seems to believe that it's out of the realm of possibility for him, both because of his age, and his war training.
