Name:Lucas Lewis
Source:OC
Age:16
Gender: Nonbinary/Shapeshifter
Pronouns: He/Them
Sexuality: Mostly Gay but a Little Straight so Bi
Affiliation: Providence
Powers/abilities: First Off, Lucas has a heavily modified cybernetic body, most of that is relegated towards his immune system and inner organ protection but this also gives him an incredibly hardy body and enhanced strength that makes him the top-tier among other Riders, even outside of his rider form. It also makes him immune to almost every deadly disease, keep in mind though I mean actually deadly. Also he has sharp piranha-like teeth which he inherited from his mother chiyono, who was half-yokai.

Outside of that he holds the Moniker of Fightin' rider and is able to transform into a powerful state that grants him even further enhanced strength and even has access to gears which modify his base form and can even grant him new permanent powers, such as his shadow gear enabling him to wield full shapeshifting. This doesn't work with every gear though. He's also able to wield the power of any rider through his energy's adaptability and the main power of the fighter means he can wield any weapon with maximum skill. He has a very brawler/grappler based fighting style but can switch up into an agile ninja-like fighting style thanks to training from his moms.

He's also able to use the magic known as Item Dimension, a very high-tier magic that he's unusually gifted in, in which he can store pretty much anything he needs at any given time, acting as a sort of hammerspace for him. He doesn't have much talent in other magics though, but is able to use it due to the raw power he holds within him.

Backstory: He was born to Julia Lewis and Chiyono Majima, two of the most famous riders in his world. The Grappling Bull and the Assassin Shadow, these two carried out various missions and saved countless lives before falling in love and retiring to scotland, Julia's home. Lucas was born incredibly sick, his small body unable to handle the power he inherited from his parents on top of the mysterious power he held on his own. As such he spent most of his life as a bubble boy, having to be seperated from the world and retreating into what he believed was his own imagination. When he turned 6, a friend of the family who specialized in cybernetic augmentations found a solution, Lucas would undergo experimental cybernetic surgery and be infused with nanobots that would grow as he did. It was a long-shot but his parents took the chance and it succeeded! He came out of the operating room with all the energy and vigor a young boy should have and he spent the next few years helping on their farm!

That was, until his powers as a rider awoke when a couple of evil kaijin came to get revenge on his parents, despite his parents attempts to hide him the rider council found out about young lucas and proceeded to use leverage they had over his mother Chiyono to force them to send Lucas to the rider academy. By the time he went there he was only about 9 years old. He spent a miserable 5 years at the academy, learning all sorts of academic shit he didn't care about and being trained by individuals he saw as stupid and evil. He quickly became jaded and very nearly went down a path of darkness, that was until he was given a mission to do a supply run for a neutral kaiju nation known as the supply line. There he met the one he was fated to be with, Jimmy the Jumping Spider.

Despite being a Kaijin, Jimmy was also a rider and around the same age as Lucas, the two quickly bonded and soon that bond became something deeper, a deep sense of love and camaraderie that Lucas had never felt before. He took every mission he could for the pipeline just so he could see and be with Jimmy. He spent a year learning about his culture and about the goddess Jimmy worshipped, the Voidmother. Unfortunately a certain individual in the council caught wind of him repeatedly taking missions for the pipeline and decided to use him. His name was Salvatore Alvarez, he was the leader of a hidden yet large religious rider organization focused on Human Supremacy called Salvation. He and his organization hated Kaijin as taught by their goddess but could not openly hunt them down due to the regulations in place that protected non-aggressive kaijin.

He secretly bugged Lucas's delivery vehicle and in turn found the location of the entrance to the pipeline, no one expected it because why would a council member do something like this? He went personally to break into the pipeline and brought a squad to begin the purge he so desperately craved. They managed to capture a Kaijin family with Lucas and Jimmy coming out to stop them. Unfortunately...tragedy struck as one of the executioners struck down the father of the young Kaijin who had been taken from his home. Enraged and feeling a might he had never felt before Lucas pulled out a mysterious gear and transformed into a form that came to be known as Unchained Fighter. There he remembered only later what had happened, he slaughtered every member of salvation there and killed their leader in a dark and twisted rage, he then protected the child and his mother as council forces arrived to find Jimmy calming him down.

Despite the fact that Salvatore had been proven to be corrupt by this, Lobbying by the Salvation organization led Lucas to be punished for his actions. He was forbidden from taking missions for the pipeline and put under house arrest for a period of 2 years. He managed to keep in touch with Jimmy thanks to connections he made while working with the pipeline but he lamented not being able to see him. By the time the two years were nearly up he found out the son of Salvatore was invading the pipeline out of revenge for his fallen father. He rushed to Jimmy's side and fought valiantly against the son, but Salvatore's son was cunning and used his power of spatial manipulation to send Lucas into a rift, flinging him through time and space. Not long after however, the council arrived and arrested the son, Jimmy felt sorrow over Lucas but thanks to their special connection through the Voidmother, he knew he was still alive, where he ended up though is a mystery.
