Appearance: On Earth, when he takes a somewhat corporal, ghostlike body, Lucifer appears to be a very tall (6'5), lean man. He has bright blonde slicked back hair, extremely blue eyes, and a lean, angled face. He walks tall, his shoulders back and his head healed high. When he talks to others, as most humans are much shorter then him, he has to lean down slightly to meet their eyes (which he always does, eye contact holds a certain power for him). But, despite his strong looking appearance, Lucifer's own form is anything but. He can not touch or use most of his powers while in his human form. He can only observe, talk, and make orders. Lucifer uses this form mainly for observation of the humans, or in more recent years, to protect his vessel and pay him visits.

In Hell, in his Fallen form since he was struck down from Heaven, Lucifers appearance has drastically changed. While he still retains some resembles to his angelic form (which resembles his human one), he has been warped by the fires of hell and turned demonic. His hands and feet are no longer humanoid, but sharp elongated claws, perfect for ripping out the hearts of the mortal and crushing their skulls. The skin has been burned away up to his elbows and knees, leaving behind bubbling red demon flesh. His once beautiful blonde hair has turned ashy black and his eyes, once a glorious glowing blue, are now tarnish by the hellfire and burn a glowing, demonic red. From the tip of his spine a long, thin tail twists and turns, the sharp end usually dripping with blood from his most recent kill. From his footsteps, fire burns away the ground below, licking up to his ankles and sometimes twirling up into his claws, where he wields the flames to his bidding. His beautiful wings, though he only retains a single pair compared to the three he had as an angel, are now black. The feathers and askew and broken, burned and ripped in some places from battles. Lucifers demonic change comes from the intensity of Hell's demonic aura, just breathing it in will tarnish any angels light and turn their wings black. After spending years in the pit, he has lost all resemblance of his original self, though he has not forgotten.

Personality: Lucifer was once the most beloved archangel and the most beautiful. He was proud, noble, and respectful, the perfect angel created by God. He never spoke a word out of turn, never defied or disobeyed, until he was thrown out of heaven.
After that, Lucifer's personality turned on itself. He abandoned the morals that he held as a archangel, cast aside the ideals that he was to uphold as a soldier of God, and made his own set of rules. He became master of himself, Ruler of Hell, and reveled in the power he held over Man. Despite what most humans think, Lucifer does not lie. He tells the truth, the full honest truth, though most men do not believe him. Because humans are so used to deception, a truthful devil is truly the worst thing to imagine.
Lucifer is smart, conniving, and secretive, able to move ten steps ahead of everyone else. He sees into the future as if he knows what is coming (sometimes he actually does) and acts accordingly to protect his interests. He never plays a loosing hand and always comes out on top, even is it seems he is the winner. Every action, every move, is thought out, even if it seems like he is acting on impulse.
The only creature he has allowed close to him is Darius, his human incarnation that he can use as a vessel when he chooses too. He talks to this human, shares his secrets, even tells jokes (Lucifer is actually quiet funny). He has bonded to this one human only, allowed himself to like the thing as a man would like a pet dog. Though, when the times comes, he will be ready to dispatch the mortal if need be.
Lucifer sees himself as a tragic figure who was punished for being right, dismissing humanity as a flawed, barbaric race even as his brothers argue that he prefers humanity because they at least try to do better. He refuses to accept any blame for his actions, which as the archangels observes is nothing new, and suggests that God intentionally made Lucifer a devil.

History: God created the Archangels; Michael, Lucifer, Raphael, and Gabriel. They were all his brothers, though Lucifer formed an especially strong bond with Michael. Lucifer was also the most beautiful of the four, his radiance and holy power serving to make him Gods favorite. They all served as the military generals of the angels, protecting Gods Creation below and serving his every command. Angels were created to serve God, though they did so happily as they loved him as there Father. When mankind was created, Lucifer went against the very purpose of angels and argued with his brothers and with God over these imperfect mortal beings. The arguments escalated and grew bitter, so much so that the Archangel Gabriel chose to run from Heaven rather then see his brothers kill each other. In Lucifers mind, God commanded his Angels to protect Man like every other creature on earth, but Lucifer refused to protect something that did not deserve to even exist. He did not understand why God would create such tarnished, ugly beings, then force the beautiful and mighty Angels to bow before them. Lucifer was cast out of heaven and stripped of all but two of his wings. As he fell to the Underworld, Lucifer snatched one of the first human souls and dragged it below with him, where he tore and ripped at it, burned it with hellfire, poured his anger and hatred into its soul, twisting it into the first demon, Lilith. From then on he continued to create demons from the tarnished souls of evil humans who were cast below, the ones that God would not accept above. Lucifers army grew, powerful demons building up by destroying and devouring the weaker ones. At the same time, Lucifer started to loose his angelic aura. His wings turned black, his hands to claws, even his porcelain skin was stained with the blood of the damned.

Lucifer knew that with the powers of Hell growing, a war would soon break out and he needed to be able to battle on Earth. Currently, he was not able to take a true form on Earth, only a ghost like one that could not touch or interact with other humans. To aide him, he created a plan that would allow a vessel to be born that could contain his soul. Lucifer used his own blood to turn a female human into a half-demon, then erased her memories and sent her back to Earth. There, she bred with another human and bore a child with his blood running in its veins. He sent a demon to kill the parents and place the child in an orphanage, then continued to visit the boy and earn his trust. It was easy to sway the child, Darius search for a parental figure and Lucifer allowed himself to be one. He protected the boy from danger, killed off many of the humans that dare to touch his vessel, and slowly but surly explained to Darius who he truly was.

It did not take long for Lucifer to finally take charge of Darius's body for the first time. He was able to unleash his full power on the Earth, though he had to be weary of the humans physical health. As Lucifer was still awaiting the onslaught of the war, he still allowed Darius to control his body, though he did insist on it from time to time. Lucifer kept Darius hidden from the eyes of the Angels, using the powers of his demon servants to shield Darius from Gods prying eye. To anyone else, Darius was simply a wealthy teen growing up in Manhattan.

When God finally descended and Rapture began, Lucifer was quick to hide Darius in his dark wings and cast him into hell. Though he could not stay long, as a human in hell would quickly demonize, Lucifer had to make sure the cleansing of souls had ended before he allowed Darius back onto the land. While he waited, he unleashed his power onto the Earth, keen to exact his revenge on the mortals and God. Then, when the volcanoes had finished and the earthquakes had shattered the cities of Man, he ripped apart the gates of Hell and let the tidal wave of demons surge through.

Darius begged to be allowed back to Earth and Lucifer agreed, as he could not have his human vessel spoiling from the aura of Hell. He still could not set foot on Earth soil, so he needed his human to command the armies of Earth. He let Darius free and remained on his thrown, advising in Hell and battling on Earth as he saw fit.

Character Alignment: Hell

Equipment: A nifty vessel he can use at will and the whole armies of Hell. He also may wield a long sword, though he will only manifest this weapon if he happens to battle against one of his brothers. Only Angel blood can touch the Holy steal of the Archangel, not the tarnished blood of demon or human.

Apparel: In his human form, Lucifer wears tailored suits and expensive shoes. He does not change, as his form is not a true physical body. While in Hell, He wears a simple cloth around his waist, not unlike the one he wore as an angle, though this one is completely stained red from the blood of the Man.

Combat Strengths: He was once a great military general of the Angel, a perfect being made for the sole purpose of battle. He is adept at battle strategy, learning an opponents weakness, and using his surrounding to his advantage. Lucifer is a master swordsman and may also use the powers of hell; hellfire, torture devices, shadows and darkness

Combat Weaknesses: Currently, Lucifer must battle in Darius's body on Earth. He is able to use the full extent of his powers, but he still only has to endurance of a human. He still must eat, sleep, and heal. This also leaves him open to attack, as without Darius, he will not be able to control his armies or step foot on Earth.





Abilities: He may take control of his human vessel, Darius, to walk amongst the mortals and use his full powers on Earth. When he is in control of Darius, the humans sole is still intact and safe within his mind. They can interact, though usually Darius simply goes to sleep during Lucifers time.

Lucifer can (and is not limited to) teleportation, shadow control, fire control, control of natural disasters, control of demons, mind control, mind reading, precognition, flight, mass hallucinations, illusions, wide spread disease, and is able to look upon the form of God.
