Has been in existence since before the dawn of Creation.<br/><strong>Gender:</strong>Male<br/><br/><hr/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Physical Description</strong></span></span><br/><strong>Height:</strong>6’7”<br/><strong>Weight:</strong>210lbs<br/><strong>Face Claim:</strong>Nikolaj Coster-Waldau<br/><br/><strong>General Appearance:</strong><br/>Lucifer appears at most times to be an exceptionally tall, well built and athletically muscular male of around 30 - 40 years old with golden blonde hair and deep blue eyes. He has a well-shaped, rugged-looking face with a defined jawline and almost impossibly handsome features. To all intents and purposes, he looks entirely human; a tall, muscular, almost impossible attractive human, but a human nonetheless. However, as he uses more and more of his power for longer and longer periods of time, his true appearance is revealed. His Angelic Appearance is bathed in a radiant light, surrounding his ethereally attractive and eerily symmetrical features with an almost painful glow. His hair is no longer golden blonde, but the colour of a thousand blazing supernovas, radiating their heat and power with every second. He has a pair of brilliantly golden wings, well-groomed and obviously powerful, and his skin crawls with the spiderwebbing tattoo-like Abrahamic runic markings that crisscross his body. His eyes, however, are far less angelic; whereas his brother Michael possess brilliant golden eyes, Lucifer's are a deep, crimson red that flash with an unearthly bloody power. In his "Full Angel" form, he is almost painful to look at, though he tries to avoid taking that form wherever possible.<br/><br/>He is generally found wearing some expensive and well-fitting cut of tuxedo or suit, along with his trademark smirk or sardonic grin; throughout history he has always had a knack for the finer things in life, and he believes in being as well dressed as possible at all times. His main advantage is his silver tongue, after all, and people are more likely to listen to you when you're well dressed, smart-looking and presentable. When he finds the occasion to don his angelic armour, however, he is instead entirely encased in golden plate armour, akin to a medieval knight but glowing with divine energy and wielding a great flaming blade in one hand. Though he doesn't wear the armour often, it is always at his slightest beck and call.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Personality and History</span></strong></span></div><br/><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Personality</span></strong> </div>Lucifer is, first and foremost, almost entirely self centred; he cares very, very little for the mortal races and sees them more as entertainment than anything else. When you've lived for as long as he has, you tend to begin to ignore the everyday lives of creatures that - from your perspective - are born, live and die in the space of a single blink. It isn't that he dislikes the mortals, or even that he holds any kind of unfavourable opinion about them. He just doesn't care. Why should he? Why should a cosmic being of his power and scope ever even consider what the dust on his bookshelf thinks about him or its own existence? He is most concerned with what is of use to him, personally, and what he wants and what he needs to do to get it. He isn't completely heartless - there are people that he cares about and people that he does respect - but everything he does is always tempered with the question, "What do I get out of this." Despite his selfish streak, however, he has a great deal of pride in himself; he is not malicious or particularly vindictive, and rarely acts out of spite.<br/><br/>Similarly, he sees lying as beneath him, and everything he says is - in some way - the truth, even if it's not the truth that people hear. Further, if he makes a promise, he will keep it. It is a point of pride to him that you can always rely on him to do exactly what he says he will. If he isn't as good as his word, then what is he? Of course, you should always keep a careful eye on what, precisely, he promised to do because what he promised and what you asked might not always be the same thing. He's also rather loathe to get involved personally in affairs; he is retired for a reason, after all, to enjoy his immortality rather than put himself out for others. He goes where he thinks he will be entertained, not where he thinks he can do good or help. He has urges, of course - he wants to be entertained, he wants to be respected and he wants to enjoy himself, so if an attractive woman were to throw themselves at him he would not likely turn them down - but above all else...he knows what he wants, and is not afraid to take it. He is civil and civilised, honest and reliable, but you should not take that for virtue.<br/><br/>At the end of the day, Lucifer is out for himself, and unless you are one of the few people he cares about or respects, he will not hesitate to cross you if and when it suits him to do so. He is confident to the point of arrogance, he is cocky and sarcastic and - if he believes you to be stupid or unworthy - condescending and dismissive. He is certain of his own superiority, and yet, is somehow oddly charming at the same time. Whilst he genuinely believes himself to be above everybody else, he is unfailingly polite even when threatening people, and to all intents and purposes acts the perfect gentleman at most times. He is intelligent and cultured, and enjoys the finer things in life...and is not afraid to take them when he feels like he deserves them.<br/><br/><br/><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Biography</span></strong></div><br/>Eons ago, The Presence created the Multiverse and all that lay within. Dissatisfied with the idea of bowing and kowtowing to the lesser races, Lucifer Morningstar - the previous leader of the Angelic Host and The Presence's right-hand-man - rebelled against the Kingdom of Heaven...three seconds after Creation had been completed. As punishment, he was cast into a shapeless void known as the Chaoplasm, beyond the reaches of Mortal Space. The Chaoplasm was transformed by Lucifer's arrival and The Presence's Will into a desolate and barren expanse known by many as Hell, which became the final destination for the damned and sinful souls of the Mortal Races. Here, Morningstar ruled over the Demonic Denizens and Fallen Angels for the next ten billion years of the universes lifespan until, one day, he decided that he had grown bored and dissatisfied by his expected role in the Multiverse and decided to retire. He became tired of the various stereotypes that mortals held of the devil, such as the idea that he purchased and traded for souls or that he delighted in personally causing them suffering (when he honestly couldn't care less), which were largely untrue.<br/><br/>He also resented the assumption that he caused the evils that humans did; he did not, in fact, have anything to do with the actions of the mortals who ended up there, simply being charged with punishing them after the fact. He felt that it was an unfair punishment that he should have to oversee Hell for all eternity simply because he once - billions of years ago - rebelled, and wasn't given a chance to reconcile or have his grievances heard openly and fairly. These feelings were catalyzed when he was visited by Dream, who made him an offer that - for once - The Prince of Darkness could not refuse. Lucifer subsequently expelled all of te demons and damned souls from Hell before locking Hell's gates and handing over the key to Hell to Dream of the Endless. After the resulting trouble that came from Dream being in charge and the Demons and Damned Souls being allowed to roam free, control of Hell was handed over to two Angels; namely Duma (the angel of silence) and Remiel ("who stumbled rather than fell"), while Lucifer simply retired to Earth to pass his days in luxury and relaxation...specifically to Perth, Western Australia.<br/><br/>He now runs an upscale piano bar called "Lux" with twin locations in Los Angeles and Perth - formerly with the assistance of his Lilim female consort, Mazikeen, before they parted ways - and is generally regarded as sophisticated and charming. Beneath his charisma, however, Lucifer is a deadly and Machiavellian character, with no regard for human life or indeed any life other than those he can use to his advantage: he is a proud and vindictive fallen angel who has no qualms using his powers to get what wants, though he does admittedly loathe getting personally involved in something as base as actual fisticuffs. He could end most fights with a twitch of his finger, but where would the fun be in that? Much better to see if he can charm them into being useful, after all! Despite his slightly egotistical tendencies, he does follow something akin to a code of honour; there are few beings in the universe he respects (his brother Michael and the Angel Duma among them) and only two he could be argued to care about (Mazikeen, his consort, and his niece Elaine). He also refuses emphatically to lie (which he considers crass and undignified), insists on paying back debts, and always keeps his word...though this must not be confused with virtue, lest you find yourself holding a noticeably larger bill than you perhaps expected.<br/><br/>Recently, however, he felt something far more concerning occurring; he was beginning to lose some of his power. He was still one of the most powerful beings in the Multiverse, but he was gradually losing his ability to affect reality around him. This understandably concerned him, and he immediately began trying to subtly track down whatever was responsible. Whilst he didn't find any real answers about what could be causing it, he did find an answer as to where it was coming from; it was coming from outside of his home universe, the place he'd settled to avoid much of the superhero nonsense that happened in the other parallel continuities. Predictably enough, the source of his energy drain seemed to be one of those universes. Not wanting to reveal his weakness to Michael or Duma or his numerous rivals and enemies, Lucifer quietly opened a portal into the Multiverse to find what was taking away his powers. He hopped between multiple universes, always following the trail of his own divine energy, before eventually the trail went cold in one particular Universe.<br/><br/>Unable to find the next link, he concluded that the source must be in the universe he was currently residing in, and set about establishing himself. He caught up with local events, familiarised himself with this universes biggest heroes and villains - so he was not caught unawares if one came knocking - and set about opening his own chain of clubs to act as bases and safehouses during his stay. Soon, a Lux opened in almost every major city around the world, each connected by a special portal hidden in the back for his own ease of use. As he was preparing himself for the proper investigation, however, he sensed an approaching power from above. Soon after...a loud explosion, and a small earthquake, which was not exactly normal in Perth. Upon leaving the club to investigate the carpark outside, he found a rather odd young woman in an obviously alien craft...and a very unique greeting...<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Superpowers &amp; Equipment</span></strong></span><br/></div><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc"><strong>Reality Warper:</strong> Upon being cast out, Lucifer retained his holy powers; he is able to manipulate any external force for any effect he desires (Formerly). Recently, however, he has felt his powers beginning to wan and the larger, more cosmic-scale things he used to be capable of with merely a thought now require a great deal of concentration and energy. He is not best pleased about this. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Energy Projection:</strong> As well as being able to manipulate external forces and energy, he is able to project his Divine Energy into all manner of blasts, beams and shapes according to his whims.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Enhanced Intellect:</strong> Being as old as the universe itself, Lucifer is by far one of the most intelligent and experienced beings in existence.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Flight:</strong> Through the use of his large angelic wings, Lucifer is able to fly.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Immortality:</strong> Lucifer will never grow physically old and can live forever. It is commonly believed that only The Presence has the power to destroy him completely.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Invulnerability:</strong> It is exceptionally difficult to even so much as <em>harm</em> Lucifer, let alone kill him. Recently, however, he has found that certain powerful individuals are actually able to make him feel pain, much to his distress; whatever seems to be draining his powers seems to be affecting his durability, too.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Magic:</strong> Lucifer is adept at both non-verbal and incantation-based magic, including Enchantment, Illusion an Necromancy. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Pyrokinesis:</strong> Lucifer is able to generate and manipulate a searing holy fire at will.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Dimensional Travel:</strong> By projecting flames from his hands, Lucifer is able to create portals to and from other dimensions and universes.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Superhuman Stamina:</strong> Lucifer used to be able to function without rest or sleep; in recent days, however, he has found that he now requires a large meal and a good nights sleep at least once a week as his powers are drained. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Superhuman Strength &amp; Speed:</strong> Whilst he abhors violence, he was chief amongst The Presence's Angels and general of his armies for a reason; he is strong enough to easily throw a man into orbit, and is fast enough to keep pace with Superman.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Shapeshifting:</strong> Lucifer is able to alter his appearance to any other humanoid form he desires.<br/></li></ul><strong>Weaknesses:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc"><strong>Divine Vulnerability:</strong> Can be injured by Divine Energy of sufficient power.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Isn't God:</strong> Lucifer cannot create something from nothing; anything he manipulates must already be in existence in some form. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Power Drain:</strong> Recently, he has found that his powers are being drained by some mysterious force. Whilst still obscenely powerful, he is losing more and more of his potent powers by the week, and if he does not find out what is draining his abilities, he may well end up losing them entirely. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Arrogant:</strong> Though he is supremely intelligent, he has a habit of underestimating opponents a little too much.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Cannot control minds:</strong> Lucifer cannot violate Free Will; he must rely on his (admittedly considerable) powers of persuasion rather than outright compulsion or mind control.<br/></li></ul><hr/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Skills</strong></span></span></div><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc"><strong>Strategist:</strong> Lucifer was the Commander of the Divine Host upon the dawn of Creation, and was as such created with an almost unparalleled grasp of battle tactics and combat techniques. He was the most able, formidable fighter and general under The Presence's command, and fought many battles both for and against the Divine Legions. In addition, he has over ten billion years of experience in both political and military command. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Master Swordsman:</strong> As the former General of the Angelic Host, Lucifer is a Cosmic-class swordsman. Retirement has not dulled that edge. <br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Musician:</strong> Over his retirement spent on Earth, Lucifer has picked up several casual skills, including the ability to play numerous instruments to a reasonably high degree. Idle hands, and all that.<br/><br/></li><li type="disc"><strong>Silver Tongue:</strong> To put it plainly, Lucifer knows almost every language that has ever been created.
