Lucas' debut in The Ball 3
Lucas in FTCT 1
Character Information
Full name: Lucas
Created by: Emmanuel David
Age: 54 (born March 5, 1971)
Voiced by: Emmanuel David
First appearance: 'The Ball 3: The Great Escape'
Home: Vroomtastic, Ireland
Relatives: Katherine (wife) Freddie (adoptive son)
Gender: Male (he/him)
Species/Type of vehicle: Delivery truck
Appearance
Lucas is a delivery truck with an olive green cab and a darker green trailer. In his early appearances, he had only one window on his side profile, but like the other characters he is now drawn with two on the side. His headlights also extended outwards to his side profile in his early appearances.
Personality
Lucas is an intelligent, no-nonsense, but kind and caring character. His kindness and love is shown in the FTCT Mini Episode 'The Gift', in which Lucas decides to surprise Katherine with a Valentines Day gift, showing his love and care for Katherine. In the Minisode 'Freddie's Birthday', he says that Freddie 'has been nothing but a blessing' to them since they met in 2016.
However, he can also be extremely rude, judgemental, and wrathful, as he was extremely biased towards Dave, particularly in FTCT 2, calling his belief in God a 'fantasy' and assumed he was crazy purely because of his beliefs and viewpoints. His behaviour towards Dave implies that he is an atheist and is prejudiced against people who are religious, particularly towards Christians. However, Lucas' intentions and behaviour are not malicious in any way, and more likely stems from ignorance, misplaced anger, and a desire to protect Freddie from Dave's 'fanatical' beliefs.
In addition, he is also very strict and serious, as in 'The Ball 3: The Great Escape', he scolds Freddie for picking up a ball that did not belong to him, but offers to help him fix it later, showing he is a fair and understanding person.
Background
Lucas was born on 5 March 1971. He grew up in Wembley, London and he also met Katherine in the city. They fell in love and got married in 2005, before moving to Vroomtastic around mid-2006.
