== Story ==
Luke is a young American mixed martial artist who specializes in kickboxing. In addition to his MMA skills, he has the special ability to throw rapid fiery projectiles with his punches. A former soldier of the U.S. army, Luke's past is shrouded in mystery. As a young boy, he lived alongside his father, Robert Sullivan, a quiet and reserved person. Luke often reminisces about his father, who sprung into action evacuating civilians in a mall upon discovering an IED planted by terrorists, sacrificing himself while protecting others.
Following the death of his father, Luke chose to join the army to fight against terrorism, though he found himself unsatisfied with his line of work. While training on a heavy bag during the events of Street Fighter V, Luke is visited by Guile, who challenges him to a quick sparring match. Guile reveals that he was asked by Luke's CO to confront his desire to leave the military. After Luke remarks his doubts about the path his life has taken, Guile tells him about how he knows people just like Luke who chose to take their fight elsewhere. The two toast to Luke's father, and Luke's new path in life, with Luke thinking that he wishes to become a man just like his father.
== Abilities ==
Luke excels as an all-rounder, able to pummel his opponent up close or zone them out from afar with his "Sandblaster" projectile. Unique to him in SFV is a recharging V-Trigger gauge, granting him charge by dealing general damage and depleting whenever he takes hits or using enhanced specials.
== Personality ==
Luke is a little on the hot-headed side, but he means well and is pleasant around everyone he meets. He greatly admires his father after he sacrificed his life evacuating civillians, prompting him to join the Special Forces to combat terrorism. However, after a friendly match with Guile, Luke remarks that serving did not grant him the satisfaction he desired, and with the Colonel's encouragement, decides to follow his own journey in competitive fighting.
