He loves his baggy jeans and coats, and sometimes will wear short sleeved shirts that will show off his various tattoos. He has two full sleeves of tattoos in honor of his Pokemon, both alive and fallen. Luca also keeps a keychain with acrylic pieces of his Pokemon on his person. He insists it's cause it makes his Pokemon happy. [b][color=bf986d]Personality:[/color][/b] A tough front with a soft spot for cute things. He keeps up the bravado since without it, people think it's an invitation to poke fun or joke about the big tough guy having a "girly" team. Luca is a nice guy all around who enjoys some nice liquor and hanging out with friends from time to time. When he's not creating keychain figurines of Pokemon, he's working on his physique or bonding with his team. Some would consider him hard to approach based on appearance alone, but Luca doesn't mind the reputation all that much. If anything, it's kinda fun to see what new rumors kids bring about the "big scary" fairy gym leader. [b][color=bf986d]Short Biography:[/color][/b] Luca is the eldest son to a loving father and older brother of two little sisters; one who is sweet as pie (Penelope) and the other a destructive little shit (Lily). His mother, one day, decided she didn't want to be a mom anymore and instead went to Paldea to pursue a career in... something. Luca didn't remember nor care to. All he knew was that she abandoned her "boring" life to pursue greener grass, leaving her ex-husband to pick up the pieces of both the family and his broken heart. Luca's father worked hard to ensure his three children lived normal childhoods, and when Luca himself was 11, he helped out with cooking and cleaning until his father insisted that he pursue Pokemon training. Luca, by that time, had grown interested in Pokemon and even begged for a pet Eevee at one point. However, since the house was small and Lily was running rampant, it never happened. He was hesitant though. It would mean leaving his dad too, and he didn't want his dad to do everything on his own again! After some time and persuasion from his family, Luca agreed to become a trainer. He got the Eevee he always wanted as his starter Pokemon and began his journey. Since the Eevee was an excitable little bunch, he named his pal "Happy". Happy ended up evolving into a Sylveon, and Luca ended up favoring Fairy types due to their cuteness reminding him of his sisters. As he grew, his growth spurt hit him hard and the scars of various Pokemon battles started to show, leading to the tough looking exterior of someone you shouldn't mess with. But when his peers saw his fairy team, it would lead to shock and sometimes ridicule. Luca didn't let him dissuade him from his favorite type, but he would learn to keep the [i]why[/i] a secret. He would continue to train hard and battle harder, losing a few Pokemon along the way but doing his damnedest to never let those mistakes happen again. When the gym challenge opened up, Luca decided to toss his hat into the ring and participate. He and his team fought hard, and while he did get a nice little ego boost from the battles he did win, he ended up getting demolished and his streak was cut short. Since he was only in it for the fun and maybe a bit of cash, he shrugged his shoulders and stuck around to say congratulations to the winner. Luca decided now would be a good time to put an end to all the traveling. After he returned home with his new best friends, he decided to work at the Fairy gym and rent himself a place at the gym's location. The retiring gym leader chose him to take on the responsibilities, but Luca insisted that they battle so he could earn the spot fair and square. He was comfortable in his spot as a gym trainer and he'd seen the leader's bond with her team, there was [i]no way[/i] he'd win right? "Well shit..." Was his choice of words when his new title as gym leader was made official.
