This is a fanfic. If you're looking for the trope, [[Soulless Shell| go here]].
 
Officially entitled "soulless'''''Soulless shell", complete with missing caps, this fic''''' has been dubbed the ''[[Legolas By Laura|legolas by laura]]'' of the ''[[Redwall]]'' fandom, and described as being "like a badfic bingo card". To attempt to summarise this thing:
 
The story begins with the introduction of Leif Melyamos, a half-rat half-mouse, whose parents are killed by a mysterious organisation of evil which captures him and declares him to be the "crimson king" (apparently no relation to [[The Dark Tower]] series). They demand he demonstrate his powers, and it's revealed very suddenly that he has the ability to [[Canon Defilement|shoot beams from his paws and teleport, by which fact nobeast seems very surprised for some reason]]. Skip an uncertain amount of time, and Leif has become the leader of the mysterious organisation of evil, despite being a good guy at heart. His rival, Councilman [[Aerith and Bob|Arnold]], is accused of rape and Leif has him arrested, only to have him escape. Luckily Leif is on a date nearby with his fangirl Maiomi, who is supposed to be seventeen but [[Lolicon|acts seven]] because the author can't write female characters convincingly, finds Arnold, and slaughters him messily while in his brand new randomly-appearing monster form, which has horns and wings. Leif then goes on a quest to find his father's magical sword, which demands a sacrifice of blood before it will let him use it. The story ends abruptly there, as the author has not resumed it since.
