In reference to your leaf character...
Your charaacter is 2 dimensional? Well you can always attach your character to a bunch of dummy obects... I simply have never tried rigging a 2D object.
May I suggest warping a thin box and pulling out a stem ect to make a leaf, and then maybe giving him arms, legs, eyes and maybe a mouth? Although you don't need to give him any of those body parts in specific, it seems it would be prettier and maybe even a bit easier.
