Senior Lucas Lucani y Aldana

Formerly Don Lucas Sebastian Diego Maria Salvador Lucani y Aldana de Aldana

Lucas is a lover and a fighter, a swordsman and courtier. Played by Shawn Connor.

He wasn given the baronetcy of Drachenheim and named ambassador pro tem to Freiburg for his loyal services to Castille – and also, as far as Cardinal Verdugo is concerned, to get him out of the way.  Just recalled when a permanent ambassador was appointed.  Lucas was the son of King Sandoval's most trusted advisor, don Andrès Béjarano de Aldana.  However, revelations about his grandfather's less than sterling conduct has left his bloodline disowned by the Aldana family, and Lucas was therefore unable to claim his noble titles anymore.

Lucas is tall, about 5'11" with light brown hair and a 2" scar on his left-side jawline from a duel several years ago.  He keeps his hair cut relatively short and well styled, except in the back where he has cultivated a long thin braid that reaches just below his shoulder blades.  His eyes are a soft brown, with laugh-lines at the corners.  His nose is long and patrician, and when his face is relaxed his mouth settles into a kind of knowing smirk.  He has a thin, neatly trimmed mustache and royale (below-the-lip thingie) which he believes makes him look dashing.

Lucas has been increasingly called to serve as a diplomat and an advisor, something that has surprised him greatly, but he has shown himself quite successful at it.  He was instrumental in stopping a war in Eisen, in preventing the Empereur of Montaigne for mounting a coup to take the Castillan throne, in preventing a war of succession in Castille by negotiating with various candidates and factions, and in preventing another war with Avalon.  In thanks, King Javier asked him to serve as his advisor in forming a House of Commons, as the king guides his nation towards democracy.

Secretly, Lucas is also a member of the Inner Council of Los Vagos, and one of the few people to whom El Vago has revealed his true identity.
