Official League Records

Leaf joined the ILB as a pitcher for the Los Angeles Tacos with the Return of Blaseball.

After Season β3, Leaf was briefly known as Wyatt Mason due to The Wyatt Masoning. During The Unmasoning, Leaf's name was partially restored to Wyatt Leaf for less than an hour before being fully restored to Alejandro Leaf.

At the end of the Season β7 regular season, Leaf and the other Tacos pitchers received the Shelled modification as part of the Snackrifice.

On Season β9, Day X, Leaf was conscripted to THE SHELLED ONE'S PODS as a lineup player. Following the dispersal of the PODS during the Season β10 elections, Leaf joined the New York Millennials as a pitcher.

During the Season β13 Elections, Leaf gained the Roamin' modification from the Revoke Will, and wandered to the Tokyo Lift.

On Season β17, Day 14, Leaf tasted the Infinite twice and   Unlimited Tacos players Felix Garbage and Basilio Fig, making Leaf the first player to shell multiple players in a single game. Leaf was traded to the Charleston Shoe Thieves in exchange for Inky Rutledge during the Season β17 elections via the Lift's Equivalent Exchange will.

On Season β18, Day 59, Leaf retreated to the Shoe Thieves' Shadows in exchange for Tevin Melcon due to the Choux Stadium's Fax Machine. On Day 76, Leaf returned to the active roster in exchange for Oscar Dollie, again via the Fax Machine.

On Season β19, Day 58, Leaf retreated to the Shoes Thieves' Shadows in exchange for Richardson Games via Choux Stadium's Fax Machine, becoming a lineup player in the process. On Day 67, Leaf returned to the active roster in exchange for Oscar Dollie, again via the Fax Machine, becoming a pitcher in the process.

On Season β20, Day 79, Leaf was incinerated and replaced by Vernon Shotwell.

During the Season β22 elections, Leaf wandered out of the Hall of Flame and joined the Canada Moist Talkers.

Over the course of Season β23, Leaf entered and exited the Moist Talkers' Shadows 2 times as a result of The Gleek's Fax Machine, ending the season on the pitching rotation.

During the Season β23 elections, Leaf evolved to Base 1 before roaming to the Hawai'i Fridays.

Box of Alejandro Leaf Files

Dust billows as the file box lands on the table. While many archives in the Interdimensional Rumor Mill are unified in some way, this... definitely isn’t one of them. The accompanying Rumor Registry explains all of the contents... wherever it is... but for now you grab the folder labelled IF-1667 and start reading...

AVAST!
The waters beyond this point are uncharted, tales from distant shores echoed back into our reality.

Background

The following accounts can be traced to a single leather-bound journal originally found in a locked wooden chest alongside a sextant-like device of indeterminate origin and a shell that matches no known species of mollusc. The chest was located in a storage room in the Legscraper’s lower levels that was described as “smelling faintly of the sea”. Subsequent attempts to locate and navigate to said room have been unsuccessful thus far. The journal details the exploits of the crew of a large sailing vessel, The Tokyo Adrift, descriptions of which are largely consistent with mid-17th century galleons.

With The Tokyo Adrift

Alejandro “Aly” Leaf was first discovered when The Tokyo Adrift found itself caught in a kelp forest near the port city of Infinity Plains. The location was also known the Watermill due to a high frequency of "sudden and turbulent waves dashing ships against nearby rocky outcrops, grinding them to pieces". According to a related entry, "many a ship found themselves pulled towards the rocks by strong, persistent tidal currents". As such, the region was often avoided by even the most experienced of sailors. A notable exception is found in one Captain Charla, whose "oddly constructed vessel, built to maximise buoyancy, floated unusually high in the sea, drifting right above the dangerous riptides".

The Adrift had stopped there to allow Goodwin Morin and Captain Strongbody to dive in search of specimens for the latter's research. Strongbody was later quoted in the journal describing the experience as “anxiety-inducing, it was like the entire environment was watching me, and it did not like what it saw”. The divers located their goal, a mollusc shell of considerable size and lustre, but found themselves unable to swim back to the surface. The journal reflects their retelling of the incident, describing “kelp clinging to [them], pulling [them] ever deeper” and “shadows lurking at the edge of [their] vision, only to disappear when focused on”. Morin later said “I’ve never felt so powerless while beneath the surface, the more we fought, the harder it fought back.”

Meanwhile, the ship itself found its rudder immobilised, kelp having crept into every available crack of the mechanism. It was only after returning the shell and backing away that the divers were able to make contact with the entity they would come to know as Aly Leaf. When reassured of their intentions and upon receiving their word that they would not harm the kelp forest, Leaf allowed them to retrieve their quarry.

Anatomical sketches of Leaf depict a head and tail resembling a leafy sea dragon, with the front legs and torso of a horse. Her exact form seems to be mutable and the journal posits that the entity witnessed was but an avatar of the greater whole. Leaf appeared to have full control over kelp from her domain, demonstrating the ability to independently control the movement of “as many as thirty individual fronds at a time”. Water dwelling members of the crew reported a deep hum echoing below the surface of the waves when she used this ability, the sound of which was described as “haunting and enchanting in equal measure”.
