Name: Luke Smith

Location: 13 Bannerman Road: London
Bio: Luke is an
artificial human known as the Archetype and was created by the Bane in order
for them to experiment on. He had the physical form of a teenager upon his
creation, despite his actual mental age being much younger, yet he has shown a
very high level of intelligence which far outweighs that of any human child of
the same age. He was named "Luke
Smith" after being adopted by Sarah-Jane Smith, the onetime companion of
The Doctor, when she rescued him from execution by the Bane.
As far as we
know, because of the way Luke was created and because of his mother’s
influence, Luke is not a threat to us in any way and has in fact helped his
mother save the earth many times over.
We are unaware
of his true age at this point as there is no way to calculate it but he seems
more naïve than any human child of the same age which is a blessing and a curse
for him as he has no way of knowing who his enemies are and with his
intelligence and innocence as it is, he can be susceptible to other species
taking full advantage of his vulnerability in a bid to help them invade earth.
However, we know that Sarah-Jane Smith with the help of “Mr Smith” and The
Doctor, will endeavour to teach him all he needs to know meaning he will mature
and become an ally of earths.
IMPORTANT!
We do not know if Luke
Smith can age. He may stay as he outwardly represents at the moment which is as
a 14-year-old. This may cause confusion for those who know him and could alert
other people to the existence of non-human life forms. If this is the case, we
will need to decide what happens to him after his mother passes away.
Other
Information: Are there others
like Luke Smith on Earth? Did the Bane make more specimens for experimentation?
At this present time, we do not know!
