Lukas

Lukas is arguably the main character of Addictive Science, with the majority of the arcs and plots involving him and being centered around his perspective. He appears from page 1 of the comic.

**Physical Features**

Lukas prefers the form of a male human, but does not often remain that way. He has been transformed into practically anything imaginable by Celia, from canine to equine to reptilian to insectoid to tauric to mythical forms. His favored forms are often manly, like dragons and wolves. The forms he is more often turned into is a fennec fox at first, usually due to the law of conservation of mass, while later on a catgirl or Catherine is more likely.

**Personality**

Lukas is considered a snarker, constantly criticizing Celia's multitudes of questionable decisions. He dislikes almost all transformations, though makes exceptions for those he considers manly, cool, or useful enough. He has, however, shown a tsundere side towards certain transformations, which he attempts to hide from Celia, to limited success. More often, after being transformed, he will grumble and grouch about it, pestering Celia to turn him human. In times of calm, usually during holidays or at the end of an arc, he will express his happiness with his current lot in life, despite all the transformations and the like.

Lukas is quite stoic, constantly doing things that he personally dislikes for the greater good, usually for the protection of the general public or Geenie. However, he is erratic about this behavior, at times willing to endure humiliation in order to protect others, and at other times completely unwilling to do anything but drink tea and watch the proceeds from a distance. Sometimes, he simply snaps and becomes part of the problem, though those times are incredibly rare.

Lukas hates anything implying his own femininity, likely due to transformation traumas. He frequently asserts his own masculinity, but always in harmless ways like kilts, blades, and asserting that he's a MAN. Dislikes the given nickname "Lucy" when he's in a female form, but that doesn't stop most characters from calling him that regardless.

**Talents/Abilities**

Lukas is a ninja, wielding all the skills of one, including conjuring flames, substituting himself with a log, escaping unseen via a smoke bomb, and proficiently wielding a Japanese Katana. He gained these abilities after watching Naruto in his youth, and training until he was adept at ninjitsu.

After being cursed and stuck in a catgirl form, he has gained the ability to turn into a cat and back at will. He dislikes doing so, however, as it reminds him of being a girl, and grows out his hair, forcing him to get a haircut. Later on, he also gains the ability to turn into Catherine, which he dislikes using, but does anyway in times of need. Whether or not he can use such abilities to turn into a cat or Catherine and then into a human from any other form has been unconfirmed.

**Occupation**

Lukas is Celia's assistant, at first simply due to being her roommate, and then as an official aspect in order to make ends meet while his art career takes off. He claims not to enjoy it, instead saying that he does it so that others don't have to, as he's more used to transformations than most. He often saves the world from Celia( or any given mad scientist)'s madness, to the point where he's the go-to savior when one of them begins acting up. His education and true calling is in art, which he is seen frequently practicing, but commissions are quite sparse, with him receiving less than one per year.

**Relationships With Other Characters**

Celia - Claims to dislike her due to disliking being transformed, but shares a long-term friendship with her, which can shine through in moments of calm or clarity.

Geenie - Lukas enjoy's Geenie's presence, and over time, a romantic relationship has developed between them. They can be considered boyfriend and girlfriend, at least when they're the proper genders. Lukas is often protective of Geenie, especially when dealing with things like contagious transformations.

Mark - Views him in a similar light to Celia, as they share similar habits regarding their respective occupations. They've known each other for less time, but Lukas shares a begrudging acceptance of his presence anyway.

Vivian - While Vivian has never transformed Lukas directly, they are still not the best of friends, due to Vivian's enjoying seeing such excitement. They're amicable and friendly, but not much more.

Captain - Lukas despises the captain. He will attempt to attack him whenever he sees him, often to no success whatsoever. The captain often takes Lukas on various adventures, whether he's willing or not, but there are also times when Lukas sees the adventure as a vacation, and agrees to go willingly.

The Men In Black - Lukas frequently shows disdain for the men in black, often considering them to be incompetent in every way imaginable, *except* when their efforts actually make the situation worse. Lukas will not only accept, but actively allow any transformation or similar nonsense that targets the men in black specifically.
