Lukka is a military-trained man in his late 30s from the plane of Ikoria. There he was a captain of the First Special Intercept Squad (the "Specials"), an elite monster fighting team tasked with keeping his home country safe. When his team was slaughtered by a monster which then bonded with him, he became a wanted man. Rather than learning to live with his new abilities and coexist with the monsters, he chose to use them as weapons, vowing to take revenge and rule his kingdom with an unstoppable army. He was defeated, and his planeswalker spark ignited, casting him to another world. He retains the power to control beasts.

In this story he has been dragged to the base of our new villains, the Oriq. We don't yet know their goals or their methods, only that they want Lukka to do some work for them.

Lukka is a planeswalker and one of the main characters of Strixhaven. As he appears in future chapters and stories, you will be asked to reprise the role. He has only 5 words in this story, hence the low pay this week, but we expect him to have a larger role in future chapters.
