Lubbock

Lubbock is a member of the assassin group Night Raid. In the city, his cover is an owner of a bookstore.

Appearance
Lubbock is a young man with short green hair and red goggles on top. He wears a long green jacket with a fur trimmed hood over a white shirt with a red collar and blue jeans. He wears it with brown shoes. When in battle, he wears his Teigu on his hands.

Personality
He is an easy going person who tends to be a pervert from time to time, including trying to peep on Leone while bathing. Despite this, he's careful not to let this get in the way of battle when fighting females.

History
Lubbock was the 4th son born into a wealthy merchant family in a region of the Empire. During his childhood, he met Najenda, who had just moved into the region for the time. Falling in love at first sight, he left the life he had to get closer to Najenda and joined the army. Using his talent, Lubbock rose through the ranks to the point where he could serve and be by her side. He would also join her in her defection to the rebellion, even going as far as to risk his life to change the military records of both him and her to K.I.A.

Equipment and Skills
Lubbock uses a wire Teigu named "Infinite Uses: Cross Tail", which is very strong and has many uses, including offensive and defensive techniques. He is able to use his Teigu to detect intruders who cross into his wires' parameters. He is also able to manipulate the wires forming them into a spear like object, which he uses to impale his enemies. He has displayed an extremely resourceful tactical use of his Teigu, using it like a suit of Armour being the most common use in question. He also tends to plan several moves ahead of his enemies and will adapt well to a given situation even as it changes, such as when he killed two of the Four Rakshasa Demons, a group noted for killing Teigu users themselves.

He has been shown to be good at tricking enemies and distracting them; he claims his Ultimate Technique is his ability to play dead, which he has used multiple times to ambush or escape enemies.

He can shape his thread into a throwing spear, a makeshift shield, and an axe.

He has a great deal of experience and it was even noted by his enemies.

He was also shown to have knives that he uses in combination with his Teigu.



Trivia

 * Lubbock is one of only two Night Raid members whose face is not on an Imperial wanted poster, the other being Tatsumi.


 * He always tries to woo any cute girl he sees. Unfortunately for him, they're either not interested or trying to kill him.


 * He's the one that handles the alarms and defenses of the Night Raid's hideouts and he's also skilled in reconnaissance and information gathering.


 * While he lacks the raw physical power of Leone or the devastating Teigu attack power of Akame, several characters note him to have a great deal of combat experience and a highly tactical mind, often defeating his enemies with intuitive uses of his Teigu.


 * His Teigu, Infinite Uses: Cross Tail, is a garotte on gloves that can be used in a myriad of ways such as enemy detection, makeshift shields, laceration, strangulation, and can be shaped into a number of different weapons.


 * He has a stronger type of thread called "realm severer thread," superior to his regular thread because it originated from the stronger parts of the original danger beast's body. It was strong enough to hold back Grand Chariot for a small amount of time.

It can be used to re-attach the limbs of an Animal King: Lionelle user.
