Luka Couffaine

**Luka Couffaine** is the twin brother of Juleka Couffaine and illegitimate child of Naud Gamigin, head of the cadet branch of the Samigina Clan. He is wielder of the Snake Miraculous and a member of Paris' superhero team, Team Miraculous, under the alias **Viperion**.

## Appearance

Luka is a handsome teenage boy, with fair skin and a tall, slender frame. He is described as having "Roman" facial features, with luminous cyan-colored eyes and medium-length black hair with dyed strong cyan tips. He has multiple tattoos covering his arms and his body, with an ouroboros tattoo located on the nape of his neck.

His casual attire consists of a white T-shirt with the Samigina Clan's emblem imprint, a denim jacket with a strong blue elbow-length sleeved hooded cardigan underneath, black jeans ripped at the knees, as well as black high top converse sneakers with different colored patterns. He wears multiple bracelets and wristband, black ear piercings, and has the Snake Miraculous worn on his left hand as an ouroboros-shaped bracelet.

While being the superhero Viperion, he wears a mostly deep-green and dark-cyan bodysuit, with scale-like textures and snake patterns, complete with fans on his opal and turquoise-ish gray mask, or bright gold eyes on the back of his hands. His eyes change from cyan to spring-green, and the dyed ends of his hair change to a sea-green.

## Personality

Unlike his twin sister, Luka is a calm person whose personality is a mix of playful, charming, mature, and flirtatious. He is empathetic at reading people's emotions and expressing it through music. He is kind and generous, especially toward his friends and family, but also to people he just met. He is supportive and encouraging toward others, which earned him the admiration of many.

He seems to be an easygoing and relaxed guy. However, sometimes he can lose his calmness if he feels that he and those he cares for are being wronged. Even then, he still maintained a level of cool, and only lost it when his friends were endangered. He is generally described as the "perfect son, perfect friend, and perfect hero", though Naud complains that he's too mature for a teenage guy.

## History

Luka Couffaine was born in 1999 as the older twin brother of Juleka Couffaine, son of Anarka Couffaine and popular musician Jagged Stone. However, due to disagreements between his parents, Jagged Stone never knew of his children and both Luka and Juleka were raised by their mother.

Growing up, neither him nor Juleka noticed their devil heritage as Anarka was a wizard and had raised them with her family, who have been pure wizards for over three generations, and as such, all unnatural things their infernal energy did was instead marked off as accidental magic. When he was 8 years old, he, Anarka, and Juleka left their grandparents' place in Bordeaux to Paris and the three have lived on Anarka's enchanted houseboat since then.

When he was 11 years old, he and Juleka enrolled in Beauxbatons. Due to France's Ministry of Magic's acceptance of wizards with creature heritage, the two of them still didn't find out about their nature as half-devils. When they were 14 years old, an outbreak of Crimson Fever broke out in Beauxbatons, causing 3 students to die while both him and his sister were hospitalized and would have died had their infernal energy not saved them in time.

Because of this, Anarka decided to withdraw them and homeschooled them in magical subjects herself while letting them go to a mundane public school during the day. Whereas Juleka was enrolled in Collège Françoise Dupont, Luka entered the Paris Academy of the Dramatic Arts.

## Equipment

**Snake Miraculous**: Luka is the wielder of the Snake ouroboros bracelet, which is the Miraculous Jewel holding the spirit of Ophion, the God of Transformation.
