DEscriptION:
→ Lucas has long, fair blond hair that he keeps long to his shoulders. He prefers to keep it in a ponytail or, when he's relaxing, a messy bun. His eyes are a very light blue that, at first glance, looks silver. He doesn't like to have people on his right side, since it's his weakest and he can't see them well.
Because he grew up in a mining town, Lucas has a very muscular build. However, he is the youngest and smallest of six brothers and is known to be stronger than he looks. He has always had to fight when he didn't like something, and has scars on his knuckles and pretty much everywhere else from brawls with his brothers and mining accidents. One noticeable scar is down his right eye. Because of injury, his vision is limited in the eye, mostly color-blindness. His skin is pale from spending long hours underground, but his hands are tough and callused.

Lucas dresses casually when he's relaxing; his favorite garments are T-shirts and jeans. However, when on the job, he dresses in clothes that are both presentable and convenient for combat. He is not a fan of high collars, so he is mostly seen wearing V-necks or tank tops. Lucas's right ear is pierced. He did it on a dare when he was eleven, and although the hole remains open, he never really puts anything in it.



PERSONALITY:
→ Lucas has a warm personality. He is very trusting of people and usually gullible to tricks. He is also known for his violent temper, and sometimes claims he cannot control his body when he gets mad enough. He also has a problem with torturing people when he cannot get the information he wants. Lucas does not like to kill, and he promises that it is the only order he will not obey. However, if his enemy makes him mad enough and the order is given, he will comply.

LOVE:
→ 1. Reading
2. Sleeping
3. Hanging out on roofs
4. Outside
5. Cooking

HATE:
→1. Homunculi
2. Killing
3. Being betrayed
4. Dwelling on past mistakes

DEEPEST SECRET:
→ Lucas has an undying fear of spiders. If he is in a battle where one screw up could kill him and he sees a spider on him, he will try to actually run away from it. It's something that he will not admit unless he's drunk.



IDOL:
→He greatly admires Emperor Napoleon I, and will look into his battle tactics to learn how to get the better of his enemy. Out of the total books in his personal library, 1/3 of them are on him.



HISTORY:
→Lucas was born as the youngest of six brothers. Because of this and his family's poor finances, he's had to scrounge for every scrap of food, which includes fighting his brothers for them. He has been working in the mines since he was six. He's experienced five mine collapses, one trapped him under for three days when he was twelve. The last one damaged his right eye, and his mother forbid him to work in them again. He decided he wanted a better life for him and his family, and so began to study to become a State Alchemist. His brothers caught him studying and decided to do it as well. Despite the competition, Lucas was the only one to become an alchemist.
Lucas has a very close relationship with his father. Being the youngest, his parents babied him and he wasn't given the same freedoms as his brothers. He convinced his father to let him work in the mines with him and his brothers. Lucas worked hard, but he was practically useless during a cave in. When he turned fifteen, his eye was hurt in the fifth cave in he experienced, and since then his mother would no longer let him work in the mines. He worked in a small grocery store, spending most of his free time reading. He learned about alchemy through a book on Imad ul-din.
Lucas has different relationships with each of his five brothers. The first is Adam, who is twice his current age (38). Adam is the most responsible of all his siblings, and was often placed in charge of them. He is currently married and runs a bakery in Youswell with his wife and three daughters. Lucas and Adam have a very trusting relationship, and Lucas often goes to him for advice.

The second is Damien, who is 27. Damien and Lucas have never gotten along. They describe each other as "the bane of my existence." Despite this supposed hatred, Damien was the one who actually rescued Lucas when his eye was hurt in the cave in. Since then the two still have never gotten along, but Damien does not physically fight with his brother.

The third and fourth brothers are twins, Alex and David (24). David is the older twin, bigger and stronger. He no more than verbally teases Lucas, though the two are known as a very formidable team during brawls. Alex is the younger twin, and though scrawny, is stronger than he looks, and he does not like Lucas one bit. He doesn't force himself to love his brother, and has given Lucas the majority of his scars before he became a State Alchemist.

The last is Patrick, older by only one year. He is the one closest to Lucas, and the only other person who knows of Lucas's fear of spiders. Patrick is a pacifist, and though he tried out for a State Alchemist position, he was unable to become one because of his inability to hurt someone. He instead turned to the alchemy that involves "potions" and such. Patrick is also the better cook of all his brothers.



ALCHEMIC ABILITY:
→Lucas's alchemy involves electricity and magnets. His weapon of choice is a custom made black gun. The workings inside the gun allow him to charge the bullets and fire a rail gun. The force of the blast is usually too strong for him, so he only uses it to its full power when he is sure he can win. He can also safely transmute anything that carries an electrical charge (i.e. generators, power lines, batteries, etc.) His transmutation circles run all along his body like a circuit, and they allow him to hold a charge that courses through his body and fight faster than the eye can see. However, moving at such speeds puts a strain on his muscles and body, so it is yet another one of his trump cards. Using chalk and tattooed transmutation circles, he can perform basic alchemy as well.



TRIVIA:
→--Lucas always carries everything he needs in a black drawstring back. The contents are as follows: a change of clothes, check book, map of Amestris, toothbrush, encyclopedia on differents plants and herbs, and a sketchpad and pencils to draw and label different plants.

--Lucas has developed an interest in botany for his brother, Patrick, and often sends back different plants he believes can be used.

--Lucas's favorite drink is cherry juice.
