WILD COYOTE

Luca always felt like an outsider. He had a temper for as long as he could remember and for years, he couldn’t understand why. Why did he have these abrupt tantrums? Why was his hands always balled into fists? It wasn’t until he entered middle school when he realized that his anger was directed at himself. He hated the person he saw in the mirror every morning. No amount of therapy ever helped. What did help, was his friends Maddy and Jasmine. They meant everything to him until high school when he got bullied for having two dads. People thought that meant he was gay, too. And being friends with girls instead of other boys didn’t help stop the rumors. It only fueled them. So Luca put on a mask and hid behind this toxic need to be the alpha male. It worked…He was an alpha male but he wasn’t happy anymore. His self-entitlement and red-blooded bravado turned him against his friends (the only real ones he’s ever had) and now he had no one. Just some strange girl on the back of his motorcycle.

From the outside of the bar, Luca could tell Nocturnal was having one of its busier nights. He wasn’t sure what could have pulled in such a big crowd, but the ebb and flow of patrons assured him it was something special. Free beer? A hot new coyote? A special karaoke performance by a celeb? Whatever or whoever was behind the night’s bustling success had everyone in the bar pushing and shoving to get a better look. “What the hell is it, free booze night?” Luca asked someone who was standing beside him. @wildfloweur

MEET:  LUCA RAMIREZ 

ABOUT. NAME: Luca Ramirez  AGE: 26 years old  PRONOUNS: he/his OCCUPATION: recruiter / dealer for gang in West Point  POSITIVE TRAITS: ambitious, charming, persuasive, talented NEGATIVE TRAITS: insecure, impressionable, short-tempered, judgmental 

CONNECTIONS.     ― Jasmine Fox: girlfriend, their relationship is toxic, but there’s good with the bad     ― Tyler Murdock: new best friend, pledge, doesn’t know hes an undercover cop     ― Madeline Maddox: thinks she’s hot, hates her guts, but kinda digs her mean girl wrath     ― Wanted Connects: other gang members, friends, enemies, customers

QUICK FACTS. ▪ Was adopted by two men, Julian and Louis. They raised him in a wealthy town and gave him everything he could ever want, but because he’s so insecure and impressionable, Luca rebelled against the “different” lifestyle he was adopted into and joined a gang, hoping it would preserve his “masculinity.” ▪ Grew up with Jasmine, her parents are his parents best friends. When Jasmine first met Luca he was sweet and romantic, but as he grew older, he became colder and harder to please.  ▪ Met Tyler Murdock at a party in Ocean Harbor. Luca knew there was something special about the guy; the way he talked, walked, owned the room. He was exactly the kind of guy Luca was taught to recruit. Little did he know, Tyler was already recruited into an undercover task force, hell-bent on cleaning up Westville’s crime epidemic.  ▪ Comes off as a total asshole with no remorse, but is actually protecting a heart of gold.  ▪ Moved to the “ghetto” area to better fit in with his people. Though he was raised on the richer side of town.  ▪ Played football in high school, was captain, and popular until “outed” as the gay guys’ son.  ▪ As a recruiter, he’s really good at manipulating people into seeing things his way. He’s a smooth talker and his good-looks are great at backing him up.  ▪ Has a bad temper that goes off like a firecracker, but he almost always feels guilty afterwards. That temper was actually inherited by his biological father, who he’s never met. His mother works as a waitress in West Point, who he sees all the time, but he doesn’t know who she is, and vice versa. She gave him up when he was a newborn, still working at the same diner.
