~ Luca Paguro
Lucas "Luca" Paguro is the titular main protagonist of Luca. He is a sea monster who goes to the surface with his friend, Alberto Scorfano. He tries to win a race in Portorosso, and island town/city in Italy with help of Alberto and Giulia Marcovaldo.
Luca is a nice, shy and timid boy, unlike Alberto, who is a daring young boy. He is constantly told to not go to the surface, but after finding some “land monster” stuff in the ocean, he gets curious and goes to the surface.
Biography
He was born as a sea monster to strict parents, under water, obviously.
He was first seen rounding up his fish (which are used as sheep) up and going around his neighborhood, and his neighbors are getting a bit annoyed, as they make it clear he’s done this before. As he is headed over to the little circle ranch, he sees “land monster” stuff around there, that Alberto knocked down from a ship. He heads to the surface and becomes a human.
When Luca is asked for the ball, he kicks a ball. As a result, the ball hits Ercole’s Vespa. He met Giulia and trained for a bike race. Luca and Giulia started to share a bond in learning and Giulia tells him about school, which sparks his interest, which causes Alberto to become jealous. When Alberto's jealousy reaches to a point where he intentionally reveals his true form to Giulia to prove that that they can't go to school because they're sea monsters, Luca, unwilling to give himself up, feign surprise, which causes Alberto to go back to his hideout out of heartbreak.
Luca felt remorseful and makes it up to him by winning the Vespa. He defeated Ercole and went to school with Giulia.
Powers and Abilities
He can turn into a human (“land monster as they sometimes call humans”) when he’s dry.
He can swim really well in his sea monster form.
