Backstory: Born on Earth in 2461 but orphaned young when his hometown was destroyed during the Atresciun war, Luka was sent to an orphanage on Imperial Luna with his younger brother, Nikolai. Luka hated both aliens (for invading) and the Empire (for failing to protect Earth), but eventually became a soldier at 18, enlisting in GAIA. He became an officer at 24 after being rewarded for ruthless actions against rebels. He gained the title "Ursa Major" at this time. Nikolai also joined GAIA after Luka pulled a few strings. Nikolai eventually became Luka's second in command (with the title "Ursa Minor") and the two are close.

Relationships: Nikolai Sutter (younger brother, pilot) - "Damn it Niko, you tryin' to get yourself killed? Fuckin' dummkopf. Stick close to me."

Keep that up and you might just make it outta this Scheissdreck alive." About Nikolai: "Niko? He's a good kid...dumm wie Bohnenstroh, but loyal as they come. Gotta keep 'im in line though."
