Weaknesses
Imposter syndrome (because he’s never held a championship, he sometimes wonder if he’s just maybe not good enough)
Putting others first (even if it’s at the expense of himself)
Chip on his shoulder (While he naturally has a temper, it’s something he has learned to work with it when things go wrong. But it doesn’t help that his useless father uses him for money, his twin sister won’t speak to him because of that, his mother’s disappearance makes him feel guilty and pressured and his ailing grandmother and younger sister depend on him. And on top of all that, he still has nothing to show for in his career, having attempted and failed every major opportunity for success.)

CHARACTER HISTORY/BIO
Lukas grew up in Sacramento, CA, before his mother took the kids out one night during his high school freshman year, dropped them off at his maternal grandmother’s place in the suburbs of Las Vegas and never came back. His father was an abusive, angry drunk and his mother had sunk into depression. He then lived with his Oma and two sisters (one is his fraternal twin Helena and the other, Charlie, just five years old).
Soon enough, Lukas cleaned up and stepped up to take care of his family when Oma’s health started declining and his father returned to manipulate and extort money from him to support his dark lifestyle. Helena herself took off on her own to search for their still missing mother. In the middle of all this, Lukas found comfort and purpose in the safe walls of Nightfall Fights where he trained with Xavier Young and also reunited with his childhood best friend Gavin.
Over the years, he signed with various places like Inferno Wrestling, HKW Underground and Liberty Pro (Empire Pro). Though he worked hard and received opportunities, his wrestling career has never exactly flourished the way he had hoped. Despite getting the chance to compete in title tournaments here and there, he has never made it far enough. And even though the past 2 years had been great to him, marrying his soulmate and working a lighter schedule in the independent circuit after Empire Pro closed, he still craves for more. As a result, he has grown more and more frustrated with his professional life.
Still feeling stuck and itching for a championship, just to satisfy that hunger inside, he is determined to do another run. This time at Millennium Wrestling. And maybe just maybe it will be the place to finally turn his dream of greater success into reality.
