History
Lucas was born in Durham, England on July 7th to two loving and devoted parents. His father attended Hogwarts until his graduation, and spent most of his time studying ancient runes around the world (which is how he met Lucas' mother in Rotterdam, the Netherlands). Lucas inherited his English ancestry from his father while his Dutch ancestry came from his mother, who was also a witch. She attended Beauxbatons Academy of Magic in France and was able to speak not only in Dutch and English but also in French.

Despite exhibiting small signs of magic as a child, his father insisted on homeschooling him in Muggle subjects to prepare him in case he ended up being a Squib, which was a common occurrence within the Baker family. His mother spent most of her time teaching and caring for Lucas while his father continued to study ancient runes. When it was discovered that his mother was pregnant of another child when Lucas was nine, his father decided to stay at home more and to help her with raising their small family.

He travelled back and forth England and the Netherlands to spend a lot of time with both sides of his family: his mother loved to educate him on Dutch culture and taught him the language too. All of these trips stopped occuring a lot after his little brother Matt was born. In comparison to his brother, Lucas was a happy baby that rarely cried, except when he was feeling tired.

Personality
Lucas is very caring and passionate towards others and is more than willing to offer his help to those in need. He is a very loyal friend and will do anything he can to make sure that his friends and loved ones are safe and happy. He has been raised by his parents to always be polite to people even if they are rude to him. At first glance Lucas may come across as quiet and shy, especially around strangers, but once he gets out of his shell he smiles and jokes around all the time.

However, putting other people first can make him forget to take care of himself. He is insecure and quite pessimistic although he is trying not to be. The love and loyalty he feels for his family and friends can easily cloud his judgement, meaning that he does not see the faults in their behavior at times, causing him to become very stubborn, a trait he shares with his mother. Whenever he feels insulted, he either pretends everything is fine or gets mad at the person, feeling extreme regret and remorse afterwards.

Physical appearance
Lucas is a short-statured young man with a slim build. He has white skin, brown hair and blue eyes. He prefers comfortable clothing such as hoodies, jeans, and sneakers. He likes to comb his hair or else it is going to look like he has just gotten out of his bed. He tends to pay a lot of attention to how he looks, and never forgets to brush his teeth three times a day.
