Distrustful loner: After being framed and made a scapegoat by his former school gang—which led to his expulsion—Luke stopped trusting those around him. Cold and abrasive: In his interactions with others, he is often rude, withdrawn, short-tempered, and irritable. Protective toward those close to him: Despite his prickly exterior, he is deeply attached to his younger sister, Bluesnow, and others he knows; he protects them fiercely and is willing to make sacrifices for their sake. • Pragmatic and cautious: In critical situations or when caught in a trap, he relies on cold, calculated reasoning and his combat skills, while remaining on his guard even around his own allies. • Internal trauma: His personality gradually shifts and softens as he begins to develop trust in someone.
Speaks with measured, workmanlike phrasing; drops practical observations and short, dry jokes.
