Luger

Luger was a Grandmaster of the Dark Legion and father of the infamous Kragok, Lien-Da and Julie-Su. As Grandmaster, Luger apparently had a more reserved style of leadership, one that earned him the animosity of his older children. After the death of his second wife, Mari-Su, Luger mysteriously disappeared. Some speculated his eldest children were behind his "death", though what really happened remains unknown.

Grandmaster of the Dark Legion and First Marriage
Luger took over the Dark Legion after his father Moritori infiltrated the Brotherhood of Guardians, impersonating Tobor. He married Merin-Da, and she gave birth to his first two children, Lien-Da and Kragok. He attended his first twin children's birth and viewed them as worthy heirs to great Dimitri. Tragedy struck however when Luger lead the Dark Legion into Mobius Prime and Merin-Da became ill. Luger returned the Dark Legion to the Twilight Zone (the first time the Dark Legion willingly returned) where he hoped his wife's illness would pass, but in the end she died from her ailments, leaving Luger along to raise his two children.

Second Marriage
Several years later, Luger managed to recover from the emotional scarring from Merin-Da's death. When Lien-Da and Kragok were sixteen years old, Luger found a new potential mate in Mari-Su, much to the dismay of Kragok and Lien-Da who saw her as a threat to their own ambitions. Regardless, Luger showed no signs of disappointment in his children's feelings, and shortly afterwards, Luger married Mari-Su. A year later, she gave birth to Julie-Su. Unlike his first children's case, Luger was not present at the birth of his third child, and was often occupied with work during Julie-Su's infant years. (SSS: #11)

Widdowed Again and Disappearance
Unfortunately, Luger was an inattentive father for all of his children, and in his rare moments of parenthood he apparently displayed more affection for Julie-Su. Angered by this-and by Mari-Su taking their mother's place-Kragok and Lien-Da arranged for Mari-Su's death in the form of an "accident". Luger, knowing almost nothing about parenting, entrusted Julie-Su into the care of the loving couple Simon and Floren-Ca. Shortly afterwards, Luger disappeared without a trace, and Julie-Su was left at the mercy of her older siblings, though a memory wipe insured that she would learn nothing of the events or her past Not long after Luger's disappearance, Kragok assumed command of the Dark Legion.

Personality
Luger's unique qualities stem from his personality and leadership of the Dark Legion during his tenure as Grandmaster. First, Luger was the only Grandmaster to willingly return himself and the Dark Legion to the Twilight Zone. Second, while not much of a father figure, Luger displayed signs of affection towards Julie-Su which instilled jealousy into his elder children. (SSS: #11)

Background Information
Luger has only appeared in two issues, Sonic Super Special #11 and Sonic the Hedgehog #183 where all of the Grandmasters and Guardians were shown. In the latter, Luger's appearance was that of a much more gentle and happy person as opposed to his other Grandmaster counterparts. This was likely a nod to the implications he was a much calmer and more reserved leader. Whether Luger is still alive or dead is still unknown, as his disappearance has not been touched on since Sonic Super Special #11, though writer Ian Flynn stated he was likely dead. The mystery surrounding his "disappearance" is to be revealed finally in Sonic the Hedgehog #205.

Sketch designs from Patrick Spaziante for Luger as well as Mari-Su, Merin-Da and young Kragok and Lien-Da were available later in Sonic the Hedgehog #115.
