	Leo VI is a historical figure and character introduced in the 2023 novel ''[[Assassin's Creed: The Golden City]]'', written by [[Jaleigh Johnson]]. The book's events take place in 867, when Leo would have still been a toddler, but the novel portrays him as a young child instead. This is an odd choice for the author to have made given that Basil I had an older son, {{wiki\|Constantine (son of Basil I)\|Constantine}}, whose age would have aligned more naturally, being somewhere between 2 and 12.

On the other hand, Basil is historically documented to have despised Leo, suspecting him to be Michael III's son, and did not harbor the same contempt or suspicions towards Constantine, who was born to Basil's previous wife before he became emperor.

	Historically it was widely believed – apparently even by Leo himself – that he was indeed Michael III's son. One of Leo's first acts as Emperor was to rebury his putative father with a great ceremony in the Imperial Mausoleum in Constantinople, having previously been buried at a monastery on the other side of the Bosphorus.
