History: [[Credit goes to Aselia: The Tales Wiki ]]

Seven years prior to the beginning of the game, Luke was reportedly kidnapped by the Malkuth Empire, an experience so traumatic as to cause him to lose all memory of events and people encountered before this event. Since his return to Kimlasca, he has been confined in Fabre manor in Baticul, the capital of the kingdom of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear, having only the company of his parents, Natalia Luzu Kimlasca Lanvaldear, the servants, his teacher Van Grants and his best friend Guy Cecil.

Since this event, Luke would periodically experience painful headaches, similar to migraines but apparently less severe and with no perceptible cause, and sometimes even hear voices. Luke's family believed them to be linked to the kidnapping.

One day in the middle of sword practice, Tear Grants enters the Fabre manor using a fonic hymn to lull its occupants to sleep attempts to assassinate Van, but Luke intervenes, causing an isofon-induced hyperressonance which transports the two away into the Tataroo Valley, which lies within the territory of the Malkuth Empire, thus beginning Luke´s adventure into the world he has never had knowledge about with Tear as his guide.

As he makes his way across Malkuth, Luke begins to develop a better understanding of the world outside his manor, despite still behaving like a spoiled child until much later in the game. Shortly after their arrival in the farming village of Engeve, Luke and Tear encounter Malkuth Colonel Jade Curtiss and Fon Master Guardian Anise Tatlin of Daath.

It is later revealed that the two are escorting Fon Master Ion of the Order of Lorelei to the Kimlascan Capital, Baticul, in the hope of persuading the king of Kimlasca not to go to war with Malkuth. Luke agrees to aid Jade and Ion in obtaining an audience with his uncle, King Ingobert VI of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear, after being captured by Malkuth forces and taken aboard the Tartarus following an investigation of food theft by the Cheagles under threat of being eaten by Ligers. They are later joined by Guy Cecil after the Tartarus is attacked and commandeered by the six God-Generals of the Order of Lorelei, who appears miraculously on time to save Luke, Jade and Tear from Legretta and Arietta.

When Largo is supposedly killed by Jade, Luke is astonished to see how Jade simply murdered him. He is placed on guard when he unwilling kills an enemy soldier. Luke is shocked that he killed someone, and after some convincing conversations with Tear, he once again picks up his sword. When the party, now accompanied by Guy, runs into more soldiers, Luke cannot bring himself to draw his sword; and Tear jumps in the way as the soldier prepares to strike the killing blow. Fortunately, Tear is not hurt badly, but Luke places it upon himself to not be as fearful of killing because of her injury.

After the return to Baticul, Luke discovers that Van has been arrested and possibly faces execution, but after a meeting with him, Luke sees the promise of becoming a hero as stated in Lorelei's score, only to be tricked by his very own master into destroying Akzeriuth, the mining town to which he and his party had been sent to provide assistance following an earthquake that released the miasma from below the surface. As a result of Van's deception, the Sephiroth supporting the mining town was destroyed and the entire city fell into the Qliphoth, the world beneath the Outer Lands known only to the upper echelons of the Order of Lorelei, which, shrouded in the deadly miasma, spreads beneath the Outer Lands as an expanse of liquified crust beneath an eerie violet sky.

After the catastrophe with the destruction of Akzeriuth at Luke's hands, he starts to lose the trust and support of all his friends, turning from him when he needs their support most. His selfish and arrogant attitude had proven to be too much for the group, and they chose to abandon his side to deal with the situation which he refused to acknowledge his share of the blame, ultimately leading him to tears. The only one who would stay by his side was Mieu.

After his close encounter with God-General Asch the Bloody, Luke enters in a depression shock after finding out that he is merely a replica of Asch, and that Asch is the original Luke kidnapped by Van in order to overturn Yulia´s score. He is unable to overcome this on his own. As he saw through Asch's eyes the way that Guy still considered him a friend, and Tear's council about what exactly to do to make up for his mistake, Luke cuts his hair with Tear's knife to throw away his old self and try to change into a better person.

From this point on, Luke's resolve seems even more solid, since he now wants to save the world, even if that does not make up for his actions into Akzeriuth´s destruction. A little later in the game, Luke finds his own way to save the world by controlling the Sephiroth Passage Rings with his hyperressonance. If done correctly, this could allow him to steadily lower the Outer Lands into the Qliphoth before they fall.

One month after the Outer Lands were lowered, Luke has returned to his manor in the city of Baticul. This time though, he has decided to keep in contact with his friends. After a while, Luke and his friends reunite and start travelling the world once again. As they do, it becomes clear that the world was not fully saved by their actions. Miasma starts to pour back into the Outer Lands and replicas are wandering the streets with nowhere to go but the mysterious Tower of Rem.

Eventually, Luke discovers a way to save the world that would involve the loss of ten thousand lives and one Seventh Fonist. The replicas, willing to die if it will put an end to their pain, offer themselves up as a sacrifice as well as Luke.

Luke believes that he has no reason to exist and thinks that by living, he is denying Asch the life he was meant to be living. His friends try and persuade him that he is wrong, but Luke has made up his mind. He and the replicas travel to the top of the Tower of Rem and Luke starts to cast an amplified hyperressonance to absorb the world's miasma. During this time, Luke realizes that he does not want to die. His efforts to remove the miasma are not enough, and Asch is forced to step in and help again. Both him and Luke are caught up in the energy field and when it disappears, they're both still alive. Both the miasma and the replicas are gone though.

Even with the miasma gone, the fate of the world still hangs in the balance. Van Grants has revived the destroyed city of Hod, now renamed Eldrant, and will use it to destroy the world and build a new age of replicas. Luke and the others decide that they have to stop this from happening, but that they have to do it fast. At the Tower of Rem Luke finds Asch at the attempting to use the replicas to erase the world's miasma, but Luke refuses to let this happen and argues with Asch for the sword. Luke tells Asch, that he should be the one to die since he is a replica. Asch leaves after failing in this attempt and Luke and his party head to Daath. At Daath, he reveals his choice that he will sacrifice his life and allow Asch to live.

At the tower Luke and Asch fight again on who will use the Key of Lorelei, but Luke manages to take Asch's place when Jade manages to hold on to Asch. While attempting this, a large object emerges from Lukes chest; Asch reveals that it is the Jewel of Lorelei and Luke must have sealed into himself during the fight with Van. Luke uses the sword along with jewel to clear the miasma. Luke and rest of the party are surprised to see Luke living, but Luke notices that his hand is becoming transparent. The party goes back to Belkend to speak with the doctor, there the doctor explains that his Seventh Fonons are separating and at some point he will die.

As Luke makes his way to Eldrant to stop Van, he realizes that his remaining time after finally discovering the meaning of life is too short. Tear tries to persuade him that he is going to live and keep on living, even with the Seventh Fonons inside of him slowly fading away.

He eventually reaches Eldrant but finds himself falling through a trap door into a large, sealed off chamber. Asch is down there too, and he found a way to escape. Unfortunately, it requires one person to stay behind and hold the door open using hyperressonance. Luke volunteers to stay, saying that Asch would be able to defeat Van easier, being the original. Asch cannot stand Luke putting himself down though, and he cannot allow Luke to decide who is stronger on his own. He challenges his replica to fight. The winner will be declared stronger and will be allowed to go forward and defeat Van.

Luke emerges from the fight victorious and Asch hold the door open for him. Afterwards though, Asch is killed by Oracle Knight replicas. As he breathes his last breath, he gives Luke what remains of his power, allowing Luke to perform Second Order hyperressonance.

After defeating Van, Luke frees Lorelei and saves the world. But after catching Asch´s dead body, both of them are engulfed in a blinding light as Asch´s finger twitches.

One year after the battle on Eldrant, and three years after the start of his initial journey, Luke is presumed to be dead, either killed in the destruction of Eldrant or worn down by separating Seventh Fonons. However, on the night of his coming of age ceremony, his twentieth birthday, Luke mysteriously reappears in Tataroo Valley. But the Luke seen is slightly different than the one who defeated Van. Notable changes include longer hair, with a hair tone between Asch's dark ends and Luke's light ends, a completely different outfit, a slightly different voice from both Luke and Asch, and the Key of Lorelei positioned in the same way Luke always had his sword.

When Tear asks why he was here, he replies that there was a nice view of Hod, and he tells her that he made a promise to someone. Tear begins to cry as she rushes over to him, joined by his other friends who were nearby except Jade, who merely smiles.

Personality: Luke’s journey is one of self-discovery and transformation. At first, he plays the role of spoiled brat. Being locked up inside of a mansion for as long as he can remember wasn’t exactly conducive to kindness. He could have everything he wanted except freedom. As a result, he treated everyone around him the same— people were to be used, ignored, and defied. When finally given the chance to roam the world, Luke’s naïve and cowardly side showed, and he clung to Tear (only out of necessity, or so he convinced himself).

Another major part of the way Luke functioned was his tendency to not think for himself, though he denied this, and would occasionally yell at someone who had decided the same thing he had. He followed Van, his mentor, without question despite signs that he might not have had the world’s best interests in mind. And after the disaster at Akzeriuth, Luke was about to do the same thing with Asch’s orders. It was Tear who finally told him to shape up, start thinking for himself, and not take his own existence so lightly.

After slaughtering thousands of people because his role model told him to, Luke tells Tear that he wants to change. He cuts off his hair as a symbol of leaving his old, spoiled life behind and dedicating himself to saving the world while he can. After this transformation, he shocks the people he knows by being more polite, saying please and thank you, and not snapping when he usually would. He goes from taking none of the blame to taking all of it— quite an extreme.

However, this desire to atone is harmful. Time and time again, he realizes that no amount of apologies can ever make up for what he did, but helping people allows his soul to ease a little more. Luke’s determination to earn the trust of his friends back soon turns to doing everything he can. Even as a replica, with a stolen name and existence and power, he refuses to give up. ... He still puts himself down a lot, though.

With most of his mean shell gone, the resulting Luke is one of true altruism, a wish to change himself and the world they live in, and put the souls of Akzeriuth to rest.

Likes:

• Swordfighting/Training: Ever since he was made and trapped within his manor, the only thing that allowed him to release his stress was training.

Dislikes:

• Complicated Information: Luke prefers information to be short and simple. If it is too hard for Luke to understand, he will just complain.
  
  
• Being Called Names: Normally, this wouldn’t phase him but lately it has been getting on his nerves. If provoked long enough by such names, Luke will blow up.
  
  
• Dislikes Sketchy Meat and Mushrooms: He just hates the taste of the food.

Fears:

• Losing his Friend/Family: He fights for them and if he were to lose anyone them, he wouldn’t know what to do.
  
  
• Having Asch Hate Him More: Okay, we all know Asch hates Luke but if he were to completely detest him and doesn’t want to see him anyone, Luke would be devastated.
  
  
• Fading Away: Self-explanatory
  
  
• Losing Control: Doesn’t want to have another Akzeriuth happening again.
