Events of Criminal Case
Meeting Luke
In Oregon, Luke volunteered to accompany the player to investigate Mina Reynolds' kidnapping despite Chief Arrow's hesitation as he was on probation in the Hunters. After Arrow introduced him to the player, Luke was able to make him sure that he could handle Mina's case.
Sometime later, the Chief promoted him to a full-fledged member of the team, reminding him that he had better stick close to the player and he still had a lot to learn.
The Ghost of Murders Past
During the team's attempt to arrest artist Axel Bross for the murder of oil tycoon R.J. Fielding, the spirit of Abigail Riley appeared and possessed Luke's body, taking both Luke and Axel with her. After tracking down the runaways, Felix performed an exorcism on Luke, driving out Riley's spirit and freeing Luke.
A One-Wolf Open Slay
After arresting Ruth Wu's killer, Gwen, Hope and the player joined Luke and the rest of the team at their Christmas party after Gwen gifted Hope with a guinea pig. Luke, dressed in an elf outfit, welcomed Scrooge the guinea pig to the team. After Chief Arrow joined the team sporting reindeer antlers, the team's Christmas party commenced.
Over the Edge
Mid-investigation, Felix informed Chief Arrow and the player that Luke, skeptical that it would work, had drunk witch Morgana Blackhawk's love potion. However, the potion had worked, which meant that Luke would fall madly in love with the first person he laid his eyes on. After running off to the roller rink, Luke fell in love with vampire Fabien de la Mort.
After arresting Sharon Decker's killer, Felix and the player asked shop owner Ace Boome (aka Cupid) for help in breaking Luke's love potion spell. Ace told the team that his Love Potion Number Zero would nullify the effects of the potion. Felix and the player found the potion in his shop and sent it to Priya for analysis.
After Priya revealed that the concoction was essentially salad dressing, Felix and the player returned it to Ace and went to confront Luke. Ace fired an arrow dipped in the potion at Luke, nullifying the effects of the potion. He asked the team why he was touching Fabien, irritating the vampire.
Analyses
Occasionally, Luke is tasked to act as a proxy for experts the team meet while on the field when expertise cannot be gathered from inside the laboratory. He then informs the team of such results after a certain amount of time or a speed-up process using Criminal Case Cash. His task-wait rates vary depending on the difficulty of the task, but they all cost 1 Criminal Case Cash per 30 minutes.
Below is the list of analyses Luke acts as a proxy throughout the course of the game:
Case #12: Dead Heat
- Exhaust Manifold (12:00:00; proxy for Maylin Park)
Gameplay
The player may choose Luke to join the investigation of each crime scene (in any Supernatural Investigations cases where he teams up with the player) and provide hint bonuses. He is available as a 1-hint partner.
