IC Information
Character Name: Luke Triton
Character Canon: Professor Layton
Character Age/Gender: 14 and Male
Canon Point: Chapter six of the third Professor Layton game
Character Canon History:
Professor Layton and the Curious Village
Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box
Professor Layton and the Unwound Future
Character Personality:
Luke is generally very kind and sweet to other people, as he sees it as part of becoming a gentleman. From time to time, he has the tendency of being cheeky, especially towards a person he sees as rude. He usually speaks his mind freely, which sometimes gets him scolded by Layton. He also has a tendency of acting before thinking, especially if he‘s suspicious of someone, such as when he tried to attack Inspector Chelmey thinking that he was the evil Don Paolo in disguise. Despite his brashness, he always tries to help someone if they need it.
Luke idolizes Professor Layton, to the point that it was he who made himself Layton’s apprentice, not the Professor. He tries hard to follow in the footsteps of his mentor, sometimes even mimicking his actions (pointing like Layton does when Layton isn‘t around). Also, he takes his role as an apprentice very seriously, even becoming defensive if someone questions his apprenticeship. Luke tends to be very curious about the world around him. The boy is very inquisitive and is always asking questions. Much like his mentor, he also shares Layton’s love for puzzles, but not to the extreme that Layton does.
Like most kids his age, Luke tends to have an overactive imagination. He gets scared by things like ghosts and vampires, and depending on the environment he‘s in, he‘ll be more jumpy and easily startled. He’s also a little naïve, especially about adult matters. Unlike the Professor, he lets his emotions show more often. He’ll lose his temper or become easily shocked by something. Or if something angers him, he'll let it show, even calling someone out on their actions if he doesn't approve of them. Sometimes, he’ll even give in to certain child-like temptations, like jumping on cushions of trains.
He loves animals, and has the ability to communicate with them. If he sees an animal, he’ll usually stop whatever he’s doing to greet it. Whether or not the animal reacts kindly to him is a different matter, because sometimes the animal will lash out at him no matter how nice he is to it. Nonetheless, he’ll always try to reach out to an animal that needs help.
Since Unwound Future, Luke has matured a little. He's become more confidant, going as far as calling himself a "whiz" at puzzles. Not only that, but he's more outspoken and will jump in conversations more often. Luke also is more independent, trying to take charge of a situation rather than letting the Professor decide for him, and will even argue back with the Professor if he doesn't agree with something. But what's probably the most noticeable is that Luke is more blunt than he was before, even to the point where he comes off as downright rude and the Professor ends up having to scold him for it. But on a positive note, the boy has learned to become a little more bold and even braver then he was in previous games.
AU Information:
Luke spent nearly two years living in Mayfield, a seemingly quiet American 1950s town. The town had kidnapped him and tried to force him to believe that he had lived there all his life under a family of people he'd never met before. The town like to experiment on its residents, forcing them to kill one another, performing surgeries, altering memories, and other things. Luke had quickly worn down in the two years he lived there, and discovered after the town was falling to pieces that he was never the original Luke Triton. That he was only a digital copy in a computer simulation. This knowledge and his time in Mayfield had changed him in a lot of ways.
Luke is a lot more paranoid then his canon self. In canon, he's afraid of things like ghosts and monsters, but Mayfield has given him a reason to fear other things - violent people, hospitals, he even fears the people he cares about, because he's afraid they will either turn on him or abandoned him. Or worse, that they'll die and he won't be able to save them.
Luke is a little more violent and willing to get his hands dirty as opposed to his canon self. Mayfield taught him that in order to survive, he needed to learn how to fight in order to protect his own life or someone else's life. For a while, death and violence were a normal part of his life and because of this he has a lot of psychological scars as a result of some of the terrible things he's had to go through.
One of the big changes though, is how Luke went from cheerful and optimist to bitter and cynical. His optimistic attitude was worn down over time, and now it's harder for him to find hope in bad situations. He's also a lot more sad and distant from other people. And with the knowledge that he's only a copy, it's both a relief that he now doesn't have to feel guilty for some of the things he's gone through, but also deeply traumatic as now he's not sure what's real and what isn't.
Character Abilities: Luke can talk to and understand animals.
Character Inventory: His messenger bag, his violin, and tea set.
Samples:
First person sample.
This place was still a prison, no matter how nice it looked. It was a very pretty town, he'd give it that. But it was still a town that had kidnapped him away from his home, and judging by the large walls surrounding the city, he imagines that yet again there's no way for him to leave.
Luke didn't trust this city one bit. He already got the whole rundown of what would happen if he didn't have any kind of physical contact for long periods of time, and honestly he thought the whole thing was rubbish. He was trapped in a seemingly nice, friendly town for a few years and he endured some pretty awful torture during his stay. He imagines this place is no different, seeing how it kidnapped him away from his family just as he was starting to settle in. And that's what's even more confusing - as far as he knows, he wasn't supposed to be able to leave his home. So what was he doing here?
He wouldn't let his guard down. All he could do was keeping searching for his parents in this town. Surely he wouldn't have ended up here alone, right? All he had to do was follow these buildings and surely he'd find-
"Ugh! I can't find my way around here at all!"
He kicks at the ground, not caring at all how childish he looked. He was frustrated to the point of tears. It wasn't fair that he got taken away from his family right when things were finally settling down for him. How could he ever start over? All he wanted was to finally have a happy, peaceful life. And for a brief moment he had it. So why now?
"I just...I gotta find a way home. There's got to be a way back home."
He wouldn't be stuck here forever. ...Right?
