"I don't know what I possibly could've said. I just hope it wasn't anything mean. Because you're the most extraordinary girl, Marinette. As clear as a musical note and as sincere as a melody. You're the music that's been playing inside my head since the first day we met."

Summary
Luka Couffaine is the twin brother of Juleka Couffaine, the guitarist of Kitty Section, and a new student at Collège Françoise Dupont.

In "Desperada", after Adrien Agreste gives up being Aspik for not being able to help Ladybug against the titular villain, she gives Luka the Snake Miraculous. When the Miraculous is inhabited by Sass, he becomes Viperion, a snake-themed superhero.

In "Silencer", when Bob Roth threatens Marinette after she accuses him of stealing Kitty Section's idea for XY's new song, he is akumatized by Hawk Moth into Silencer, a voice-stealing supervillain.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Hide/Show
 * -|Viperion=

Second Chance: First, Viperion slides their finger on the Miraculous the first time to mark that moment in time. When in need, they activate the power by sliding their finger on the Miraculous a second time.

Once activated, Viperion goes back to the moment they marked. Their memory remains untouched, allowing them to correct any issues or mistakes that may have occurred before going back in time.

Viperion can use this power as many times as he wants, however, if five minutes pass without using this power, then the Miraculous loses power and the Miraculous owner detransforms back. Silencer can steal people's voices by touching their lips with his two fingers and making a shushing motion; the voice will then escape from the person as a jellyfish-like entity. Once their voices are out, he can store them inside his mask and then he can talk with them using his hands. If his power is used on a Miraculous holder, he can render them virtually powerless unless he says the invocations in their place.
