King Luther (Protector)
Affiliations
King Luther is the leader of the Lutheran Gang, an organized racketeering outfit that originated in the Kings Row neighborhood of Paragon City. Despite their involvement in various illegal and criminal schemes such as prostitution, gambling, drug dealing, weapons smuggling, and murder, the Lutheran Gang uses a number of legitimate charitable fronts to give money back to the community. This gives the gang a much more tolerable presence in Kings Row compared to gangs like the Skulls and Hellions. King Luther runs his growing criminal empire from the Rogue Isles and is a member of the Commission, a larger and broader criminal syndicate that is gaining more influence in the criminal underworld as members of the Family and other criminal gangs lose ground in their ongoing turf wars.
Backstory
In a more perfect world, Charles Luther King could have been anything more than who he is today, but growing up in the slums of Paragon City was far from perfect. Born into squalor in the slums of Kings Row, Luther was drawn at a young age to the low-level criminal activities that plagued his neighborhood and destroyed countless families, including his own. Luther's father was killed by the Skulls during a drug deal, and his mother was killed in a fire that the Hellions set to their tenement building. By the age of 12 Luther had no family left, and his only hope was to turn to the streets to survive.
Luther quickly mastered the arts of brutality and intimidation, making a name for himself as King Luther. He committed his first robbery and murder at age 14, knowing he would be sent to a juvenile facility instead of prison. While in the facility Luther used this time to establish enough contacts that when he was released at 18 he had more than enough recruits waiting to work for the King.
