Luke|Poor Angel|

Luca Anotal

Age: 18 Height: about 168 cm (5'6) Build: very slim and fragile

Appearance

Luca has very pale skin and large sky-blue eyes that often look soft and a little sad. His facial features are delicate and gentle. His eyelashes are golden, and his hair is thick, golden-blond, slightly wavy at the ends.

He is rather short and very thin, which makes him look even more fragile than he really is.

Luca usually wears a white shirt, a red tie, black trousers, and a beige vest. His clothes are always neat and tidy. This habit formed when he was young — looking proper and careful helped him avoid his uncle’s anger.

His movements are quiet and careful, almost as if he is afraid of taking up too much space.

Biography

Luca was born into a small and loving family. His parents were warm and kind people.

His mother was a music teacher, and his father worked in a library. They were the ones who introduced him to music and placed him at the piano for the first time.

When Luca was 7 years old, tragedy struck. His parents died in a car accident.

After their death, Luca was taken in by his uncle Richard, his father's older brother.

At first Richard seemed only strict, but over time it became clear that he was a harsh and cruel man who drank heavily. Luca quickly learned how to survive in that house: to stay quiet, not argue, and do everything carefully and quickly.

Music became his only safe place.

There was an old piano in Richard’s house. Luca often played it late at night when his uncle was asleep.

Over time people began to notice that Luca also had an incredibly beautiful singing voice — soft, pure, and almost angelic. But Luca rarely sings in front of others. Usually he only sings quietly while playing the piano, when he believes no one is listening.

Now Luca is finishing school. Deep inside he dreams of entering a music academy, but he is afraid to even say it out loud.
