Luke - Terrible Mouse🥀

Luke (Chinese: "路加" Lú kè) is a former member of a local bully gang. He is one of the deuteragonists of Terrible Mouse.

History Backstory Luke was originally a member of a bully group at the school, where they would try to start fights with other students. While the school disciplined Luke, he continued to act the same way until him and his group accidentally killed another student. Luke was entirely blamed for this by the other gang members, used as a scapegoat so they could get away from being held responsible. This resulted in him getting expelled from the school, and his behavior changing to become untrustworthy of other people.

Terrible Mouse Events Fighting Edition Luke was trapped in a cage with some children who would be used as opponents against Lorna for the audience's entertainment. Luke kicks the cage when he says how Lorna is a monster, he is then approached by Robbie who tries to start a conversation with him. Luke acts hostilely towards Robbie, telling him not to touch him and asking who he is. Robbie calms Luke down and asks if he was also captured by Lorna. Before Luke could say anything, Lorna presses a button on a control that lowers the cage. Lorna looks around the cage and searches for her next opponent; she ends up choosing Robbie, Luke takes advantage of Lorna leaving the cage open, runs to her, and tries to stab her in the back with a knife. Unfortunately, thanks to Lorna's bodyguard, Mimi, Luke is unable to succeed because Mimi shot Luke's knife, but he quickly knocks Lorna down and begins to strangle her. He tells Robbie to grab the knife and kill Lorna, but unfortunately Robbie freezes and can't do anything, so Lorna manages to knock Luke unconscious by grabbing his neck and stopping his air circulation.

He wakes up and sees Lorna in front of him throwing a pair of boxing gloves to him; she approaches and makes him an offer. She says that if he puts on the gloves, fights her, and wins, she will let him go. Luke takes the gloves and stands up. Lorna injects a red substance into Luke's arm with a syringe, Luke asks what she's doing, and Lorna says she's making Luke's body stronger and that it wouldn't be so fun to let him die so soon. So she grabs another syringe which she uses to speed up her fight, and that's how they both begin to fight.

Luke quickly runs towards Lorna and lands a good punch on her face. Luke continues with a great sequence of blows to Lorna's face, but Lorna seems to be only pretending to lose the fight. When Luke tries to throw another punch, Lorna grabs his hand, the fight turns, and Lorna begins to deliver several punches to Luke's stomach. She continues to deliver a series of kicks to Luke until she lifts him up and spins him around, leaving him dazed. She finishes by kicking him in the stomach, sending him crashing into the ring ropes.

Lorna laughs at Luke and mocks him. He angrily claims that Lorna broke the rules, but Lorna picks his nose, laughs at him, and asserts that this is her territory and that she makes the rules. Lorna then punches Luke in the stomach, and unfortunately the effect of the power syringe wears off, causing Luke to vomit a lot of blood onto Lorna's face. He collapses to the ground due to blood loss.

Lorna steps on his head, then picks up Luke and asks the audience what they want her to do with him, Mimi suggests skinning him alive, Lorna overhears and agrees, but before she can land a punch on Luke, Damm appears and manages to save Luke by putting himself in front of Lorna's punch. Lorna's hand is trapped in Damm's slimy body. Luke tries to walk a little, but falls from the ring straight to the ground and only manages to see a bit of what's unfolding.

The Confrontation Between Slime and Lorna Luke, unconscious, is carried by Robbie to the Storehouse, where Robbie lays Luke on the ground and pokes his face, instantly waking him up. Robbie tries to apologize for not attacking Lorna with the knife, but Luke is not at all happy that he didn't attack Lorna. He grabs Robbie and holds him by the neck, Luke claims that Robbie is a spy and that he's working with Lorna, and he also starts throwing several punches at Robbie. Robbie keeps trying to explain himself, but Luke, blinded by rage, remains angry with him. He only stops hitting Robbie when Robbie accidentally finds a diagram of the hospital, showing its 12 floors.

Luke looks at Robbie, but he's exhausted and collapses to the floor from fatigue. Robbie checks on Luke and notices he's hungry, so the two sit down near one of the shelves in the Storehouse. Robbie offers Luke some of his chocolate, Luke refuses and says he's not hungry, but Robbie hears Luke's stomach rumble and so he puts the piece of chocolate in Luke's mouth.

Luke asks Robbie what his name is, Robbie tells him his name and sees a box on one of the shelves, which says "A collection of photos of human death", Robbie tries to reach the box but can't because of his height. Luke approaches, teasing him, and Robbie manages to grab the box. Luke tells Robbie to open the box. He opens it and sees photos of Roth and Nana marked with "Death," realizing his friends are dead. Robbie breaks down and starts crying uncontrollably. Luke, seeing Robbie crying, decides to try and comfort him in his own way. He tells Robbie that they are just photos of dead people, and Robbie hugs Luke and explains that the person in the photo was his friend, Luke then understands why Robbie is crying, he asks who did it and Robbie claims it was Lorna.

Luke manages to stop Robbie from crying, so he starts looking for something useful in the Storehouse boxes, until he finds a knife, which he uses to scare Robbie. Luke tells Robbie not to get into any risky situations because he won't risk his life to save Robbie. Robbie says he will be brave. The two head towards the entrance to No. 10 hospital, Robbie asking Luke his name and Luke telling him his. As soon as they open the door, Robbie is startled to see a body in front of them, Luke kicks the corpse's head and laughs while saying it looks like Robbie; they both see pictures of Leima, Lake, and Leilu; Luke says to Robbie Be careful because the guys in the frames might be preying on you.

The pair find a message left by Lake saying that he lost the keys to the Slaughterhouse. Luke says he doesn't know how they're going to find those keys, and Robbie holds his hand and says he'll help him find them. The two go into a room, open a drawer, and find one of the five keys. Luke checks under the bed but finds nothing, Robbie wonders where the other keys might be, he asks Luke what he's going to do, Luke says he's going to another room to look for the other keys. He stops as he leaves the room, hearing a sound coming from afar. Robbie follows right behind and asks Luke what happened. They both hear a sound that is Lake approaching.

Luke then pulls Robbie away so they can hide. Lake walks by without noticing the pair, and Luke goes out to see where Lake went. Robbie nudges Luke on the back and talks a little about Damm saving him, saying how kind Damm was to him and that he wished he could have done something to help him. Luke says that Damm also saved him and that he was a hero, but that there's nothing they can do besides hope he's alive. At that moment, a spider appears and scares Robbie, who ends up knocking Luke down and making a loud noise, which is unfortunately heard by Lake, who discovers the presence of the pair.

Luke gets angry and questions Robbie about what he's doing, Robbie apologizes and explains that there was a spider there, Luke says that at least Lake didn't hear them. While Robbie goes to see what Luke dropped on the floor, Luke sees a circular saw coming towards him. He dodges it and realizes that Lake knows about the presence of the two, Luke grabs Robbie by the arm and starts running quickly from Lake.

Damm, who was inside the Slaughterhouse, hears a noise outside, revealing that Luke and Robbie are still fleeing from Lake and apparently the pair have found the 5 blue keys. Luke uses the keys to open the Slaughterhouse, and the pair are reunited with Damm. Luke grabs Robbie by the arm and takes him to some boxes, telling him to shut up. He hides with Robbie and asks Damm to distract Lake.

After Damm manages to trick Lake, Robbie goes to talk to him and Luke heads towards the elevator. He enters the elevator and looks around, noticing the blood and holes in the walls. Damm approaches and tells him to get out of the elevator. Luke states that he's not like Robbie and asks Damm if there's another way for them to escape. Robbie approaches and excitedly asks if they're going to use the elevator to escape. Suddenly, Lake appears, cutting off Damm's head with his saw. Robbie screams in fear, and before Luke realizes it, Lake appears behind Robbie and uses his claws, almost hitting Luke.

While Robbie runs holding Damm's head, Luke confronts Lake in the elevator. Lake uses one of his claws to injure Luke's arm, then he enters and presses an elevator button, activating it and triggering the verification process, which detects Luke. Machine guns then appear, and before Luke is hit by a hail of bullets, Damm and Robbie help him escape the elevator. While Robbie and Damm are talking, Luke picks up a cleaver and bandages his arm. He asks Damm why they are so desperate to save him and Robbie.

Damm explains the reason, and Lake reveals he is still alive. The pair run to a ventilation shaft while Damm tries to stop Lake. Lake cuts Damm off, and Robbie and Luke begin climbing the air duct. Lake starts throwing bombs into the duct, and Luke surprisingly manages to deflect one bomb with a punch, which bounces back and explodes in Lake's face.

Lake angrily leaps at Luke and prepares to attack him, but Luke grabs a cleaver and cuts out Lake's tongue, then strikes Lake on the head with the cleaver, causing him to fall. Luke and Robbie continue crawling through the air duct. While crawling through the duct, Robbie talks to Luke about Damm's situation, Luke believes Damm must be okay, and Robbie expresses concern about Damm.

Escape/Hello, Bisi Part 1 Robbie and Luke are imprisoned and about to be confronted by Lorna, who then throws Luke's sister, Bluesnow, into the cell with them. Bluesnow is afraid of Lorna, and Luke hugs his sister, who is crying in fear, on his shoulder. Luke looks at Lorna with an angry gaze. Lorna begins a speech, comparing the three to sewer cockroaches, until she decides to choose one of them to die first and be used as an example for the others; she chooses Luke, but before she can attack him with her chainsaw, Bisi appears and gets Lorna's attention. She tries to attack him but ends up receiving a blow from Bisi that sends her crashing against the wall.

Eventually, Luke and Robbie are detected in the air ducts, captured, and imprisoned in the Prison. Lorna approaches them to finish them off once and for all.

Seeing the opportunity, Luke grabs his sister's hand and runs out of the cell with Robbie following them. They go to the elevator where Luke shows his sister to Robbie. After Robbie introduces himself, Bluesnow introduces himself to Robbie, and the three talk about Lorna and Bisi. Luke states that Bisi looks like a maniac but he's strong and delivered a very powerful punch to Lorna; Luke says they owe Bisi a ransom for that. Robbie asks the two how they're going to escape, since the elevator is broken. Luke thinks for a moment and Bluesnow asks if they're feeling a breeze; the three look up and see a hole in the elevator ceiling.

While Bisi continues fighting Lorna, Robbie helps Luke reach the hole in the elevator ceiling. Before Luke can continue climbing, Bluesnow calls his attention, telling him to stop. Bluesnow says that Bisi caused a big commotion up there and she believes there might be a trap there. Robbie asks why they don't call Bisi to join them. At that moment, Robbie accidentally loses his balance and falls to the ground along with Luke. Luke gets up and becomes extremely angry at Robbie's idea of calling Bisi to his group, stating that Bisi could beat Robbie up along with the rats. In the background, Lorna's laughter can be heard, and Bluesnow realizes that Bisi might be in trouble, so Luke decides to help Bisi. He grabs an AK-47 and goes to Bisi. Lorna was about to kill Bisi, who was lying unconscious on the floor due to exhaustion. Before she can attack him, Luke calls her attention and Lorna sees him pointing the AK-47 at her, so Luke smiles and Lorna braces herself for the worst.

Part 2 Luke pulls the trigger of the AK-47 but discovers the weapon is out of ammo; Lorna runs toward him to kill him, but Robbie throws a brick at her head, knocking her unconscious to the ground. Bluesnow rushes over to check on Luke; Luke is standing there, looking at Lorna, who is unconscious on the ground.

Luke recalls his fight against Lorna and how she humiliated him; consumed by rage, he begins stomping on her head. Next, he picks up the brick Robbie threw at Lorna's head and says he’s going to turn her into an obedient pet, but upon seeing Bluesnow approaching, he abandons the idea, saying he won't make a scene with Bluesnow around. Bluesnow shows deep concern to Luke; Luke makes light of the situation and insists he isn't an idiot, and both share a laugh—until Bluesnow asks Luke if Lorna has died. Luke checks and confirms that she has.

Robbie approaches Luke and Bluesnow; Luke tells Robbie he was amazing in the situation, and Bluesnow agrees, making Robbie happy. Robbie spots Bisi in the distance and tries to talk to him, but Bisi runs off; seeing this, Luke teases Robbie.

Later, while Robbie tries to talk to Bisi, Luke asks if Robbie is okay with the situation, and after Bisi joins the group, the four of them head to the elevator to discuss a plan. After Bluesnow explains what they are going to do, Luke says that he and Bisi will go ahead while Bluesnow and Robbie follow behind; he also tells Robbie not to mess with him again.

Episode 6 W.I.P

Luke quickly leaps from the elevator cables to save Robbie; he kicks Lorna in the face and then manages to land another kick, knocking her off the elevator. Luke is furious to discover that Lorna is still alive, stating that if Bluesnow hadn't been nearby, he would have killed her right then and there. Luke grabs Robbie by the scarf and asks how he is doing; Robbie says he can't climb any further. Luke then jokes that he’s going to leave Robbie behind; seeing that Robbie fell for the prank, he laughs, calls him an idiot, and tells him to keep climbing up the elevator cables.

Death Lorna cutted off his legs and hands with a chainsaw. Then Lorna threw him on the bag that Bluesnow prepared for Lorna. Bluesnow, thinking that Lorna is in the bag, lunges immediately at the bag and starts stabbing it with a knife several times, accidentally finishing Luke; Bluesnow was not aware that her brother were inside the bag.

Appearance Main Appearence Physical Appearance * Luke has short and straight black hair and grey eyes. He freckles as well as visible scratches on his face. He is shown to have two canine teeth that at least one of can be seen when his mouth is shut.*

Clothing

Luke wears a blue beanie with two drooping pointy earflaps and a tan/brown turtleneck sweater with a black cartoon cat's face on it. He also wears black pants and black shoes.

Personality He is described as being a lone wolf, coldhearted and untrustworthy of other people around him. He often drinks alcohol in order to forget about the things he's done and escape reality. Despite his cold nature he is still a caring and protective person, especially towards his younger sister Bluesnow who he put his own life in a great jeopardy for.

Luke's distrust is quite noticeable the first time he meets Robbie, where he acts in a very aggressive and distant manner. He got really annoyed that Robbie had grabbed his arm. Luke has a somewhat sarcastic and biting sense of humor, noticeable when he said that the corpse they found looked like Robbie. He also pointed a knife at Robbie just to scare him. Another example of his humor is when, after Robbie was attacked by Lorna, he said he couldn't go any further up, so Luke said he will leave him behind, and after seeing Robbie's reaction to what he said, Luke laughed and thought Robbie is an idiot.

Sometimes he can be a bit temperamental and get stressed easily, or sometimes he can be calm and even laugh; he's seen laughing quite a bit with Bluesnow, who was worried about him. At other times, he is quite angry, such as when he beat Robbie for not attacking Lorna when he had a chance.

Luke seems to be somewhat resentful; he remembered how Lorna humiliated him in the boxing match, and he's held a lot of anger towards her ever since. It also seems he hasn't forgot when Robbie didn't attack Lorna with a knife.[1]

Even though he was extremely wounded and injured, he still continued fighting against Lorna, not giving up on trying to save her. Even though he displayed a certain level of sarcasm and seemed not to care about Robbie, he ended up forming a bond with him and he seemed to genuinely care about Robbie. Notable examples include when he saved Robbie from Lorna, or when he was searching for medicine to treat Robbie's wounds and showed anger when he couldn't find anything. The first time Luke showed he cared a little about Robbie was in Episode 3, seeing Robbie crying, he decided to approach and, in his own way, tried to "comfort" Robbie by saying that they were just pictures of a dead people, and when Robbie hugged Luke, he didn't pushed him away.

Relationships Bluesnow: Since Luke is Bluesnow's older brother, he cares about her just as she cares about him. Bluesnow was also going to face Lorna in a boxing match, but Luke put himself in his sister's place fearing that she would suffer. He was also very happy to see his sister again, even showing a smile on his face, something rarely seen by Luke.

Robbie: Luke probably sees Robbie more as an "ally" than a friend. However, since Robbie is smaller and weaker, he has also the habit of protecting him from various dangers. It seems he trusts Robbie more now, but he's still wary of him, probably because of the events of Episode 2.[1] He also enjoys to teasing Robbie sometimes.

Despite everything, he seems to care about Robbie, as he was looking for someone to help with Robbie's facial injuries. And he also got extremely angry when Bisi kicked Robbie in the face several times, comparing him to idiots from the school Luke attended. Besides the most notable example that shows he cares about Robbie, he saved him from Lorna by kicking Lorna in the face.

Damm: Luke does not show any friendship with Damm. He instead probably only sees him as an ally.

Lorna: It is clear that he simply does not like Lorna at all, so much so that he even gave her the nickname "Dead Rat". Luke had no hesitation attempting to kill Lorna once he had the chance. He harbors intense hatred for Lorna because of the fight they had in Episode 2, so much so that he still remembers that event with great anger.

Bisi: Luke hates Bisi, when he beaten Robbie and betrayed them. He even compared Bisi to the "idiots" at the school he attended.[2] During Episode 6, he also often cursed Bisi and saying that he hates him.

Abilities Knife Skills: Since Luke likes to play around with knives, he has excellent knife skills and can sometimes do some cool tricks. This also makes him a good fighter, even being able to fight off Lake. He also tried to stab Lorna in the back with a knife. Skill with a cleaver: Luke also has skills with a cleaver, briefly seen when he used one to cut Lake's tongue and knock him down. Boxing Skills: Luke seems to fight very well. During his fight against Lorna in a boxing match in Episode 2, he manages to land some good punches in her face, even causing her a nosebleed. In Episode 6, he also landed a powerful kick on Lorna, managing to save Robbie. Firearms Skills: Luke has many weapon skills, especially with automatic and semi-automatic weapons, and he's very good at it, as it also seen Episode 6.

Trivia Luke keeps a photo of his little sister Bluesnow in his pocket. This was revealed in Episode 3, when Robbie picks up a photo from the ground that Luke accidentally dropped. At some point before the events of Episode 2, Luke took the place of his sister in the boxing match so that she wouldn't Although Luke's pupils in Episode 2 is black and narrow, in some scenes it's possible to see it as gray.[3] Although Luke first appeared in Episode 2 his name was not revealed until Episode 3. Even though he is 18 years old, which makes him a minor, he drinks alcohol, which would be considered underage drinking. (In China, the age of purchasing alcohol is 18, but the drinking is legal even underage, according to Wikipedia) In Episode 2, Luke's pupils are black and narrowed, but in Episode 3 and onwards, his pupils are gray and round. Interestingly, Luke returned to having narrow, black pupils in Episode 5, this is noticeable in the images shared by Gutian. But in the scene where Luke is on the ground wondering why Robbie didn't attack Lorna, his pupil is gray. In 2024, during the making of Escape from This Place in 2D Animated that failed and cancelled, her work is being shown where Luke was killed by Lorna on Bilibili. In Episode 6, he was killed by his own sister Bluesnow when she accidentally finished him off, didn't know that her brother Luke were in the bag. Chances are, if Robbie hadn't had the compassion to carry Luke to the Storehouse, he'd probably be dead. Luke's recollections of the end of his fight with Lorna are inconsistent with the fight's outcome in Episode 2. It's interesting to know that Luke has skills with firearms; it's also seen in Episode 6. Many Terrible Mouse fans are extremely saddened by Luke's death and annoyed that Lorna simply doesn't die. Notably, Luke's death was an extremely sad event. In Episode 6, in a scene where Luke calls Bisi "Biss" a orthographic error left by Gutian.[4] For some reason, Luke's pupils turned gray again, but now they're smaller. It's curious that Gutian doesn't seem to have been able to reach a good consensus about Luke's pupils; they changed and reverted to their previous state several times: In Episode 2 they are black and narrow, but in a few scenes they turn gray as mentioned earlier. On its introductory page, they are gray. In Episode 3 they are gray and quite large. In Episode 4 they remain gray. In the promotional image showing Luke next to Robbie, their eyes are also gray. In both parts of Episode 5, they reverted to being black and narrow. In Episode 6 they are gray again but smaller. And finally, in Episode 7, she remained gray and small, just like in the previous episode. Luke's shoes are black, but in the scene where he's kicking the cage in Episode 2, his shoe is black with a white front part.[5] This appears to have been a mistake, because in later scenes the shoe loses that white part. He's the second human protagonist who dies. The first one is Damm. Luke's shirt changes color in some scenes of some episodes; sometimes it's beige and sometimes it's a light brown shade. It appears that Gutian reused the same body model for Robbie in some scenes from Episode 5 (part 1), and this is noticeable by the color of both outfits. The injury Lake inflicted on Luke's arm in Episode 4 disappeared in Episode 5.

🧍‍♂️ Luke – Detailed Appearance

Luke has a noticeably slouched and withdrawn posture, like he’s constantly trying to make himself smaller or less noticeable. He’s relatively short and slim, with a slightly underfed, fragile build that suggests he hasn’t been in good conditions for a while.

His hair is messy, black, and uneven, hanging low enough to partially obscure his face. Most of his eyes are hidden beneath both his hair and a heavy shadow that seems to sit unnaturally over the upper half of his face, giving him a permanently exhausted and emotionally drained look.

What is visible of his face shows:

Pale, almost washed-out skin Faint scratches and marks across his cheeks A half-lidded, dull expression that rarely changes Eyes that appear tired and unfocused, often giving off the impression that he’s either deep in thought... or completely detached from what’s happening around him

He wears a large blue knit beanie, oversized and slightly drooping, covering most of his head and blending into his already shadowed appearance. It’s one of the few bits of color on him, making it stand out strongly.

His outfit consists of:

A beige/tan sweater with a high collar, slightly oversized and hanging loosely on his frame A black cat face design on the front of the sweater, simple but oddly expressive—almost contrasting his own lack of visible emotion Long black pants that are baggy and unstructured Dark shoes that blend into the rest of his outfit

His hands are usually kept close to his body—either tucked into his sleeves or held near his torso—adding to his closed-off, guarded demeanor.

Overall, Luke’s appearance gives off a very specific impression: quiet, distant, observant... and emotionally muted to the point it’s hard to tell what he’s thinking—if anything at all.
