-===== Character Description =====
-Luca has has a lightly toned, muscular build with olive skin. His face reveals a pair of brown eyes, bushy eyebrows, thin lips and a large nose. His black-brown hair is close cropped, but frumpy and spiked up at the front and back with considerably long sideburns running down the sides of his head.
-He was given severe injuries near the end of [[timeline:ye_34]] after the [[http://stararmy.com/roleplay/viewtopic.php?p=140631#p140631|Delsauria]] [[https://stararmy.com/roleplay-forum/threads/8721|Incident]], most notably consisting of his right eye being blinded by muzzle flash and the eye and iris slowly regenerating into a strange neon orange colour rather than natural brown. The skin closest to his right eye is somewhat scarred - and hasn't quite regenerated fully despite his Yamataian biology.
-In early [[timeline:ye_35]], Luca realised that his body was dying and that he needed to swap over - he nearly collapsed a few times in the worst of times. A ROM construct of [[aiesu_kalopsia]] who diagnosed him and gave him medicine to stave it off offered to give him access to a new body supplied by Lazarus, but Luca stuck to his guns and got a body transfer to a [[species:minkan]] body made to exactly replicate his previous self's appearance with the aid of former partner [[jimothi_trakk]] in [[timeline:ye_36]]. Oddly, Luca kept the orange right eye and some of the scars  because they 'looked cool'.
-He walked with a casual swagger, and used to have a grin permanently pasted to his face, now replaced by a look of stern determination and defiance in the face of whatever the universe can throw at him and his crew.
-==== History and Relationship Notes ====
-{{  plot:isc_phoenix:character:luca.png?250|Luca Pavone, prior to the Delsauria Incident in YE34}}
-Luca Pavone was originally a soldier on the [[stararmy:starships:yss_goban]], who after a tumultuous first couple of missions, grew from a kid into a man. Afterwards, he was discharged with honours and became an 'odd jobber for fun and profit'. He also garnered a crew of loyal followers which he respects as his equals and brothers and sisters in arms.
-Things got serious when one particular job had him and the crew divert an intergalactic catastrophe. The events of which changed his life forever, and he grew from a man into a legend. He was thrust into the intergalactic spotlight as a celebrity mercenary, and he was riding the wave of success. Helping those that need help, blasting the NMX and crime syndicates into a fine paste, pleasing as many women as he can and being a freewheeling do-gooder with a cheeky streak a mile wide.
-After the Delsauria Incident and the disbanding of the ISC Phoenix, his attitude took a change for the worse as he went into hiding to recuperate and to reevaluate his options and learn deal with his daughter, [[character:vitalia_pavone]]. He chose poorly, and fell into a spiral of senseless killing against those he perceived as his enemies, mostly criminal syndicates around Nepleslian space. He had sense knocked into him by [[character:aerin_tatst]] one evening, and Luca resolved to take up the heroic mantle yet again, in spite of his problems and his wondering whether or not his heroism was necessary in the universe any more.
-He decided to go ahead and bring his brand of justice and heroism back into the universe, but resolved never to let himself get caught in his own hype without being able to live up to it, since it nearly killed him on Delsauria. He put the ISC Phoenix team back together with some new faces, and went out into the wide universe again.
-When it comes to knuckle down, he can lose the façade of fame he's garnered and fight unpredictably, chaotically and recklessly. People who've seen him fight note that he never stops moving even when he isn't going anywhere, and he never shuts up. Whether this is to trash talk his enemy, or part of some greater psychological mind game is unknown. He has also been known to 'defy the laws of physics' - presumably to psych out his opposition. Even though his attitude has changed for the more serious, he still maintains this style for the sake of spectacle tempered with efficiency.
-He has a habit of rubbing shoulders with powerful people, including CEOs, the Media, Generals, and Rulers. Most of the time, they invite him to come along to events just to have him be there, or sometimes invited to dinner or teatime together. Luca doesn't quite understand why this keeps happening, but if someone's paying for his lunch and filling his ranks and winning him influence, he can't really complain. The trait has helped him recruit his crew throughout the years too.
-//"Mind over matter? Well, what's mind? Nevermind. What's matter? Doesn't matter."//
