Luan Loud

Luan Loud is one of the main characters from The Loud House series.
== Charactah Account ==
The fourth-from-oldest of the Loud sisters, 14-year-old Luan has a fondness for comedy and practical jokes. She's an aspiring comedian who often gets on the nerves of others with her tomfoolery, but never gives up. While far less mature and down-to-earth than the others, Luan means well and has a good heart, ultimately sporting not a single mean bone in her body. Well, except on April Fools' Day.
Luan is a very goofy and fun-loving girl with an enthusiasm for comedy and making puns. Her goal is to make the world laugh along with her, though some of her material still needs work. She loves pulling pranks on her siblings and frequently makes puns for every situation, causing her to get on everyone's nerves. While Luan laughs at others' humiliations and often comes off as a nuisance to others, she does it with good intentions and does not mean to harm anyone as she just wants to make people laugh. Despite Luan's occasional ruthlessness she is mostly friendly towards her siblings, especially to Leni and Luna.
She has a taste for everything that is related to comedy - this includes comedy movies and TV series, clowns, pranks, stand-up comedy, and funny internet videos. Her most common pranking methods are dodging people in the face with pies and placing a whoopie cushion on others' seats. She also likes to record people experiencing funny situations with her video camera, but Luan is a strict ethicist so when she does this, she asks permission to the person she recorded to allow her to upload the video to the Internet. Unlike Lincoln, Luan already knows that she cannot upload videos without her subject's permission.
