'''Leras''' is a human and the original Vessel of the [[Shard]] [[Preservation]], originally from [[Yolen]]. He is nicknamed '''Fuzz''' by [[Kelsier]].{{
He is a short man with black hair, and a prominent nose.{{epigraph ref|mb3|56}}
While he is still able, Leras appears to the souls of the dying on [[Scadrial]] in order to offer some comfort before they move on to the afterlife. He appears wearing a thin wool coat that reaches almost to his feet, as well as a laced shirt and a conical skirt tied by a belt holding a knife with a handle of bone.{{
He becomes the Shard Preservation through unknown means. As Preservation, his mind was warped to fit his Shardic [[Intent]], making it impossible for him to destroy, only to preserve things as they were. In an agreement with the Shard [[Ruin]], he obtained Ruin's help in creating a planet (Scadrial), in return for allowing Ruin to destroy it. However, his Intent prevented him from actually allowing Ruin to destroy Scadrial. He orchestrated the downfall of Ruin on Scadrial with an elaborate plot to sacrifice himself (since holding Preservation meant he was unable to destroy). He sacrificed his mental capabilities to entrap Ruin in the [[Well of Ascension]], effectively preventing Ruin from majorly affecting the world.
