Daniel Gio Lucas (born 27 February 1936) is an Ebrarian Christenist pastor, revolutionary, and the first and current Sovereign Protector of Ebrary, in office since 1983.
Early life
Lucas was the third child born in the small village of Dubros, in northern Opa Province, to Gulielmo Lucas and Maria Ferrero. He had two older brothers, and two younger brothers and a younger sister. His father was of Ebraricized Vorstish descent while his mother was of mixed Ebrarian and Vorstish ancestry. His father was a traveling salesman and veteran of the Ebrarian Republican Army in the Ebrarian Civil War and his mother was a homemaker. Lucas's father was raised in the Church of Ebrary but did not attend church, and his mother was a devout Christenist and regularly took Lucas and his siblings to church services. Neither Lucas's father nor mother spoke Vorstish, and Lucas did not learn the language himself until his late 30s.
