User:Lukas
Lukas' personality is a mix between laid back and super determined. While he enjoys to lay around the house and read comic books, he wont pass up a chance at a daring adventure. Lukas also often comes off as arrogant, one of the things on his wishlist is a statue of himself looking heroic. He can easily be described as someone who believes they're already a legend and trying to live up to the life of being a legend. However, he isn't quite a legend yet.
Lukas will rarely be seen without his lucky red goggles, which he keeps several pairs of, incase a pair cracks or something of the like. On his left ear, there's a bomb earring which, coincidentally, is actually a small cherry bomb [which he's named Killer Queen]. It doesn't have much strength behind it, it's more of a slick little distraction. Since we're on the topic of left sides, his cheek also has what he refers to as a "fancy scar" which was given to him by an ex-girlfriend at the age of seventeen. Their relationship was cut short thanks to her walking in on Lukas cheating on her with a Hyur wench.
Lukas is usually seen wearing light clothes, nothing too heavy so that he can relax in the clothes he'd wear for combat. He carries a large revolver on his back which he's named Bad Company.
■ Apkallu
He has a thing for birds, that much is true. However, above any type of bird, Lukas is a total sucker for Apkallu. "What? They're cute." ■ Airships
He's always been fascinated by the idea of flight, the sky just gives a great feeling of freedom. Lukas absolutely loves airships and will likely admire the design of almost any type he finds nice looking enough, even if the ship may belong to an enemy. ■ Technology
Lukas has a great appreciation for technology, such as turrets and magitek bi-pedal walkers. He's very likely to take something apart given the opportunity to figure out how it works. ■ Riddles
While he may not be an expert at solving riddles, Lukas greatly enjoys a brain exercise and will insist that no one gives him the answer. ■ Limsa Lominsa
Lukas wasn't born in Limsa Lomsina, however, it is where he grew up. Lots and lots of fond memories lie in the city for him and he's proud to be from there. ■ Gambling
The thrill of gambling truly excites him, despite the odds being against you, the fact that winning is still a possible outcome prevents him from walking away. |
■ Voidsent
Well of course, almost any sane person would dislike Voidsent. This is true, but Lukas has had a few bad encounters with them and they just creep him out. ■ Nobles
He finds them irritating, of course there may be some decent nobles out there but he's dealt with too many that just left a bad taste in his mouth. ■ Losing
Lukas can lose a friendly fight, smile and say "Good fight," sure. But when he's fighting to prove something or anything that might be more serious to him, he dwells on it. ■ Half-assed Plans
Lukas can smell a half-assed plan miles away, and it's a pet peeve to someone who prefers tactical approaches. "Your plans represent you, take pride in 'em!" ■ The Black Shroud
Not only does Lukas have a bounty on his head there, but he's also got allergies. He avoids going there as much as he can. ■ Working for Free
Often Lukas gets dragged along to do some kind of task that definitely makes you look like a good person for doing it, but nothing kills Lukas' motivation like no pay. |
■ Money
Money makes the world go round, everyone needs it at some point. ■ Adventure
Lukas enjoys seeing new places, he'll likely dive at the opportunity to travel somewhere uncharted. ■ Solid Plans
If there's a plan that Lukas is acting according to, and that plan is 100% fool-proof, Lukas is so there. Of course, realistically, there aren't many plans that can be 100% fool-proof. ■ Progress
Lukas loves being able to look back and see how far he's come, anything that promises progress will likely fuel Lukas' will. ■ Experience
Lukas is a very hands-on learner, if there's something he's never done before he'll be anxious to try it out for the first time. |
■ Level Headed
Lukas prides himself on being able to keep a cool head when things get tough. It's something he struggled with in the past. ■ Reading Others
Lukas is good at reading body language, or simply finding out something about someone that they aren't directly putting on display. ■ Good Listener
Lukas may not advertise this about himself much, but when a friend comes to him with a problem, he's quick to listen and assist in finding a solution to their problem. ■ Mechanically Inclined
Lukas is a natural at figuring out things such as robotics and can even create a few small automatons. He can repair almost any vehicle along with knowing how to operate them. ■ Charismatic
Lukas can be outgoing and likeable, mainly due to his relaxed persona, making easily approachable. He's also known to be quite the charmer. Sometimes. ■ Confident
Confident is a nice way of putting it, cocky fits better though. |
■ Gambling
As mentioned earlier, despite the success rate being 7%, Lukas will likely take that chance, which obviously has a 93% chance of going bad. ■ Cleavage
Lukas will stare, and it can easily screw him over depending on the situation. ■ Nonchalant
He often comes off as the type who just doesn't care, despite him actually caring or not. ■ Passive
While not overly passive, there are plenty of times where Lukas could have prevented something bad from happening, though he wrote it off as none of his business. ■ Romantic Commitment
Lukas is in no way ready to settle down, so to avoid leading someone on, he refuses to get in an exclusive relationship. |
■ Goggles
They stay on a good 80% of the time. ■ Flirty
Nothing breaks the ice quite like Lukas trying to get into your panties. ■ Posing
Lukas can seem pretty theatrical when it comes to striking a pose. ■ Seat Check!
If all the seats are taken and you stand up, Lukas might just steal your chair. |
By the time he managed to get out of the crate, he found himself surrounded by several other crates in a supply closet. He crawled over the crates and made his way through the door only to find himself in the Bismark restaurant in Limsa Lominsa. He was dumbfounded, a fish out of water. His initial reaction was panic, though try as he might, he could not get home. He was left broke and in the middle of Limsa Lominsa. So, like any scrawny kid would do, he began to pickpocket. He was planning to raise enough money to take a ferry back home, but he ended up getting involved with a smalltime gang in Limsa. The gang he was in gave him that sense of family, and he later had no desire to go home. By the age of sixteen, he ditched pickpocketting and became a full-on thief. Robbing carriages in La Noscea, breaking into homes, even venturing about with a few pirates. He ended up getting a twenty-thousand gil bounty on him, which lead to him ditching the name L'oro Tia.
By the time he was seventeen, the calamity hit, and chaos ensued. His gang split, most everyone went their separate ways. Thieving was all Lukas knew, so that's what he continued. Around the age of twenty-one, he met a Miqo'te by the name of W'komara Jhida, who became sort of a mentor to Lukas. Once again, the family-like feeling got Lukas. While W'komara never directly disagreed with Lukas' thieving ways, she did constantly try to talk him into doing something less illegal. Eventually, she got through to Lukas which lead to him becoming a Treasure Hunter. It's like being a thief, just... less illegal. Lukas now twenty-three years old and has been sticking to Treasure Hunting ever since.
