Lucifer Magne (2024)

Ringmaster Lucifer Magne of Hell (born as Prince Lucifer Morningstar of Heaven) is a major character in Hazbin Hotel: Journey to the Light.

He is an extraordinarily powerful fallen seraph angel, the reclusive and delightfully eccentric King and "ringleader" of Hell, the head and founder of the Seven Deadly Sins circus troupe, one of the many "children" of God, patriarch of the royal Magne family, the estranged husband of Lilith, and the father of Charlotte Magne. As the King of Hell and Sin of Pride, Lucifer is renowned for his showman-like persona, characterized by a peculiar blend of childish whimsy and extravagant behavior. He presides over The Circus, the Pride Ring's royal capital circle.

In the past, Lucifer was the starry-eyed, but controlling prince of Heaven born to the Morningstar family and tasked with composing God's choir and bringing joy to Heaven's denizens. When God and the angels continued to love humanity even after they were corrupted by the Root of Evil, Lucifer only focused on the evil mankind committed with their free will, becoming convinced that he could control the Universe with more prowess than God Himself. He was defeated and banished by Archangel Michael and the Seven Heavenly Virtues for his rebellion and cast down from Heaven along with all who followed him. After meeting Lilith on Earth, Lucifer formed the Seven Deadly Sins circus troupe and created the seven rings of Hell to serve as their personal circus. After a bitter falling out with the other Sins, Lucifer assumed control over Hell as the supreme Ringleader, over time becoming a cautionary tale up in Heaven.

Billions of years after his damnation, Lucifer continued to harbor a relentless obsession with ascending back to Heaven and assume what he considers to be his rightful positions as the King of Heaven, the "true" God of the Universe, and the ruler of all creation. However, over the course of time, his ambition to create a "perfect" world has waned, and he has shifted his focus towards indulging in a depressive fantasy world centered around Lu Lu World.

Personality

Throughout the events of the story, Lucifer's personality goes up and down like the rollercoasters of Lu Lu World. Initially portrayed as narcissistic and callous, he also maintains an eccentric and extravagant facade, fitting for the Sin of Pride, owning any room he's in - mostly because his bumbling servants Corey and Peel loudly demand it. In Heaven, he acted like a theater kid, treating life like a big musical and believing everything revolved around him. He is every bit the terrifying ringmaster of Hell, but is also a goofy, bumbling, mischievous, stylish and silly showman fond of mischief. He is also - initially - almost comically unsupportive, antagonistic, and mean-spirited towards his daughter, Charlie, even trying to sabotage the Hazbin Hotel because he refuses to let his daughter hand Heaven his own subjects on a silver platter. However, as he realizes his failure to "perfect" Hell and turn it into a whimsical circus of fun, he gets hit in the face with humble pie, plunging into depression. After this, he becomes more unmotivated, miserable and benign. Despite his descent, Charlie still reaching out to him despite everything changes his perspective. He relinquishes his self-centered pride, and ends up embracing Charlie as his ultimate source of pride and happiness, putting all of his arrogance and pride into her being his daughter, rather than his own sense of importance.

During his time in Heaven, Lucifer began as a charming, childlike, wonder-filled dreamer, theater kid and composer brimming with passionate ideas about humanity's potential to wield their free will - fantasizing about how they would dedicate their free will to worship him in many fun and creative ways. It was clear that, even before the war, Lucifer was vain and narcissistic, blissfully ignorant of the callous impression he left on those around him. While not truly evil at this point, he was an overly dramatic control freak who was oblivious to his own flaws, all while claiming to have everyone's best interests at heart. In reality, he sought to impose his unrealistic expectations on everyone, regardless of their feasibility, excoriating all who fell short of his crushing expectations. Despite being tasked with bringing joy to Heaven's denizens, he only taught the winners of Heaven his own, selfie view of joy in others; worshipping and praising him.

However, a slow corruption overtook him as he perceived God's increasing love for humanity as a threat to his own significance. Lucifer's initial demeanor mirrored that of an overly dramatic, scorned theater kid, treating God's greater affection for humanity as if he had just suffered a defeat in a musical audition, childishly asserting that his music-making surpassed humanity's by tenfold. This evolving obsession with himself led to a petty disdain for humanity, catalyzed by God's decree for all angels to love and redeem mankind, even after they had been corrupted by the malevolent influence of the Root of Evil. Acknowledging only the evils of humanity and feeling unappreciated (despite being widely worshiped by angels and being God's favorite angel), Lucifer gained a conviction that God had gone senile. In his distorted perception, he fancied himself capable of guiding the Universe more adeptly than his Father ever could. As Raphael puts it, "he was the ugly duckling of the family but, like, on the inside."

Masterfully skilled in manipulation, the young prince charmed and exploited the emotional anguish of angels like Fergus, reminding them of their personal traumas, such as the loss of loved ones or the soldiers under their command. Through these tactics, he swayed loyal warriors to serve him and betray their previous allegiances.

At this juncture, Lucifer descended into near total madness and reached his absolute worst. He didn't hesitate to issue orders for the deaths of his own brothers when Satan recommended it. In addition, Lucifer personally oversaw the deaths of countless God-loving men, women, and children during the catastrophic War in Heaven. However, Lucifer's insatiable lust for power and his overwhelming arrogance ultimately proved to be his downfall. In a swift and decisive turn of events, he found himself effortlessly defeated by the formidable Archangel Michael and subsequently banished to the depths of Hell, along with all those who had followed his treacherous path. Following his exile from Heaven, Lucifer gradually lost his spark and much of his passion and drive, and therefore, he spends most of his time in the present trying to entertain himself. However, the fallen prince still held enough charm and charisma after his fall to woo Lilith - despite her cold demeanor - with his nerdy aspirations and lively demeanor. He expressed genuine care for Lilith, lifting her up at her darkest moment and offering her friendship and an escape from a miserable, homely life on Earth.

Never short of puns, quips, or jokes, King Lucifer is absurdist, self-indulgent, easily bored, and jaunty, a witty and charismatic showman with a goofy and silly charm, while simultaneously maintaining an air of regality and menace to avoid making others feel too comfortable around him. He loves creating things in his spare time, from wacky inventions to sentient creatures of his design. He views Hell as his personal sandbox and circus, not taking anything seriously beyond his personal woes. Despite his royal status, he has no interest in upholding etiquette, openly enjoying things such as singing, creating wacky, seemingly pointless inventions, theme parks, eating junk foods (especially candy corn), and being a connoisseur of polka music. Lucifer is also prone to idiosyncrasies, such as calling himself the "ringleader" of Hell rather than its king, since Hell is one big circus to him. Another one of Lucifer's idiosyncrasies is that he refers to sinners as "freaks", likely to dehumanize them. He also likens humans to childrens' bath toys, finding it hilarious to have their souls represented as fragile rubber duck toys. His extravagant mannerisms and cheerful demeanor often leads the newcomers in Hell to mistakenly perceive him as a harmless, bumbling, and fun-loving ruler, never to be taken too seriously.

Lucifer gives the impression of one who has been around the block and is desensitized to absurd, wacky situations, as he is seemingly immune to the eccentric and bizarre happenings of his life. He casually drops references and calls back to outlandish scenarios and behaviors as though they were routine occurrences. It is hinted that Lucifer perpetually finds himself in absurd escapades and antics behind the scenes (like teaching penguins how to play the accordion and getting into fiddle contests with humans on Earth), but because he is only a secondary character, these exploits are always offscreen. Most of his onscreen appearances, such as his confrontations with Charlie and the hotel, is simply the "boring" part of his life.

He is noted by both sinners and Hell's nobility to be a rather reclusive, apathetic, and negligent ruler, almost never making public appearances since he prefers to stay in his castle or Lu Lu World and entertain himself. He never attends to his royal duties and rarely manages Hell himself, since he believes the dimension can run itself. Lucifer's apathy has led the Pride Ring to descend into a perpetual state of turmoil, with streets strewn with corpses, rampant criminality, debauchery, and the pervasive stench of decaying bodies and burning structures in the air. It is evident that Lucifer harbors a certain level of disdain for Hell itself, and he is openly embarrassed to hold the title of its ruler. He regards Hell with extreme contempt, seeing it as a "sh*thole" undeserving of being called a kingdom, and opts to pass the majority of his time within The Circus or Lu Lu World, both of which were exclusively designed for his amusem*nt. This inclination is not surprising considering that, at the end of the day, he, too, is a prisoner of Hell, bearing a similarity to the very "freaks" he governs.

Lucifer is a very comedic individual, often cracking immature jokes and doing or saying nonsensical, comedically sociopathic, and outlandish things in most scenarios, though they are usually played for his own amusem*nt, and often at the expense of others. An example of his eccentricity is him keeping a massive collection of rubber ducks (which are actually the physical manifestation of sinners' souls) which he is obsessed over. Incredibly theatrical, he likes making large entrances in the form of elaborate musical numbers, with his troupe of rubber ducks providing choreography and backup singing, showing a flair for musical arts, which is one of his few traits which he passed down to his daughter, Charlie. Even in the presence of his enemies, he retains his playful joyfulness, albeit with sugary malice and mocking cruelty.

Lucifer often comes across as someone who cannot take a hint, displaying a devil-may-care attitude to adversity. This was best shown when his relationship with Lilith began to deteriorate, where despite her extremely hostile actions (bordering on attempted murder) towards him and refusal to talk her problems out with him, he seemed more amused than genuinely upset, continuing to try to reach out to her despite all his efforts leading to humorous and disastrous outcomes.

Despite centuries passing since his Heavenly days, Lucifer remains an incredibly childish and petulant individual. His response to adversity often involves resorting to violent and petulant tantrums, accompanied by a flurry of profanities, especially when his ego is bruised or he senses a loss of control in a situation. The mere prospect of receiving sweets can send him into fits of childish excitement. He takes great pleasure in riding around on a child-sized tricycle or indulging in the whimsy of his personal carousel. Responsibility is a concept that Lucifer resists at all costs. When faced with the harsh realities of life, he tends to retreat to the fantastical realms of Lu Lu World or his playroom. There's even a notable incident where he once destroyed a WackDonald's restaurant simply because they had forgotten to include a toy with his happy meal. Lucifer's penchant for childlike pleasures extends to his ownership of a theme park that he's created in his own image, aptly named "Lu Lu World." He frequently visits Lu Lu World to immerse himself in its festivities, further embracing his playful and juvenile nature.

Lucifer's most prominent and defining trait is his overwhelming narcissism, hubris, and a relentless obsession with himself. As the embodiment of the sin of Pride, he exudes an extreme arrogance and thrives on the adoration and worship of others. His fascination with his own beauty, appearance, power, and so-called "wisdom" knows no bounds. He has deluded himself to the point of outright denial, firmly convinced that he stands above even God Himself and that all life is beneath him. One striking example of his narcissism is his demand to be addressed as the "rightful ruler of the Universe" when introduced by his heralds. He flaunts his status as king by plastering his insignia and likeness throughout every corner of Hell, including carving his face into mountain sides a la Mount Rushmore. The capital circle of Pride, aptly named the Circus and where Lucifer leaves far away from the sinners' circles, contains an abundance of extravagant self-portraits and statues of himself. Within Lu Lu World, his theme park, there exist biased scriptures and attractions dedicated to glorifying his supposed greatness. Lucifer's refusal to acknowledge his own flaws is a recurring theme, as he consistently shifts blame onto others, thereby shielding himself from the harsh reality that he is not the sublime being he believes himself to be. His arrogance and pride prevent him from admitting to the savage aspects of his nature, allowing him to conveniently sidestep the truth whenever it suits his selfish desires.

Lucifer is known for his penchant for hoarding items that delight him, ranging from statues depicting his image, mountains of caviar, carnival delicacies, carousels, and, not to forget, his cherished rubber duck collection. Whatever brings Lucifer joy, he acquires it abundantly.

Despite his jovial attitude, Lucifer, at his worst, can display a chilling absence of empathy for others. He views sinners as irrelevant and inferior to him and still believes he was justified in starting a war in Heaven, viewing it as an act of "righteous fury" in a conversation with Lilith. He cleverly employed his comedic façade with precision, using it to lower the guard of perceived enemies and the unsuspecting public. At his worst, he could be extremely sad*stic, displaying disturbingly gleeful enjoyment while annihilating and tormenting his enemies and victims, putting fear into his name as the ringmaster of Hell. When not enjoying the spectacles of Lu Lu World, he spent a great deal of his spare time torturing his prisoners, dissidents, and enemies by mutilating them in inventive ways. Throughout his many acts of barbaric murder, torture, and humiliation, he never fails to smile and jovially cracks sad*stic jokes to his victims right up until he either executes them, or lets them free with crippling injuries once he had his fun. During his torture sessions, he has a habit of referring to his victims as his "friends" in a mocking tone, indulges in playing barbaric 'games' with them (for example, replacing their limbs with inanimate objects), chatting with them as if they were friends, and loves cracking sad*stic jokes and puns all throughout. He draws these sessions out, as he wants his victims to feel every bit of their pain.

Due to his god complex and beliefs, Lucifer has no sympathy or concern over the lives of his subjects, and tries his best to keep the sinners of Hell as miserable as possible, or make their lives more difficult in any minuscule or large-scale way he can. All of the horrible evils and crimes committed in Hell, from murder, slavery, rape, and turf wars, are enabled, supported, and endorsed by him. He is also a selfish hedonist who relishes the luxuries of royal life, while subjecting the masses to inhumane and dangerous living standards. He is very scornful towards sinners, primarily blaming them for ruining his vision of a "fun" Hell with their cynical and unfun attitudes. He endorses, co-founded, and eagerly awaits the annual Exterminations, pulling up a chair, grabbing popcorn, and watching the annual slaughter from the safety of his strongholds with unbridled glee, like a child watching a puppet show.

Lucifer expresses frustration at the notion of individuals seeking redemption, viewing it as an unwelcome intrusion on the enjoyment he has crafted for them in the form of Hell. He believes that Hell offers an unparalleled experience of pleasure and freedom from the constraints imposed by Heaven.

Despite his hatred of them, Lucifer is ultimately very controlling over Hell's sinner population, and intends to keep them in Hell and under his complete control for as long as he is king of the demonic realm, at one point outright saying to Charlie that he is willing to massacre every single sinner in his domain if it meant preventing just one from being redeemed and ascending to Heaven. This is precisely the reason why sinners are confined to the Pride Ring, the ring in which Lucifer primarily rules over; he desires dominion over human souls, as humans are God's most beloved creations, and out of his belief that he should rule all Creation.

Lucifer's profound hatred for humanity traces its roots back to their creation, an animosity that only intensified as God's love for humans eclipsed His own love for Lucifer. His perspective on humanity is irrevocably marred by their perceived flaws, which he attributes to their corruption by the Root of Evil, with his fury reaching its zenith when God commanded the angels of Heaven to worship humanity more than Himself. His disdain for the denizens of Hell, the sinners, is an extension of his loathing for humanity, as these souls are born from the very humans he despises, and he harbors a relentless desire to eradicate every sinner from existence once he ascends to Heaven, his vision is a "perfect" Universe cleansed of any trace of humanity. Lucifer frequently delegates Hell's higher-ups, notably the Ars Goetia, to meddle with the human world, their mission is to make human lives more arduous and to further the spread of sin. He also gave his approval for the enslavement of the endangered Cambions, as they were considered the most human-like of demons. Under his command, his underlings ruthlessly exploited the Cambion race, pushing them to the brink of extinction. Their demise would have been sealed if not for the intervention of Charlie and the hotel crew, who rescued them from their cruel oppressors.

Beneath Lucifer's whimsical exterior lies a dangerously volatile temper that can erupt with murderous intensity, often triggered by the smallest of provocations, such as challenges to his abilities or authority. He is acutely aware of this flaw and makes attempts to regain his composure when anger flares, with mixed success. His spitefulness and vengefulness know no bounds, particularly when he perceives others as having wronged him. In Lucifer's distorted worldview, those who dare to oppose his will or even question his intentions deserve nothing less than the most severe punishments and ceaseless suffering. This violent and unpredictable disposition has instilled intense fear and vigilance among his servants and associates, who tread carefully in his presence, mindful of their words and actions to avoid invoking his wrath. The specter of Lucifer's explosive anger looms large, serving as a constant reminder of the volatile force that lurks beneath his jovial facade.

Lucifer suffers from a thinly-veiled Napoleon Complex, where he attempts to compensate for his relatively diminutive stature by instilling fear in others. This inclination to overcompensate manifests in various ways, such as his practice of standing on the backs of his servants when posing for family portraits to appear as tall as Charlie and Lilith. Fergus' remark about the towering height of his castle also underscores this tendency. Lucifer's narcissism becomes evident through the ostentatious display of his own visage across Hell, further accentuating his need for validation. Notably, the statue of the King of Hell situated in the heart of Pentagram City is depicted as being half the size of a large building, an exaggerated representation that underscores his persistent efforts to project an aura of grandiosity and authority despite his physical stature.

While Lucifer was openly cruel towards his enemies, his allies and associates often fared no better; The King of Hell controlled his allies entirely through fear and instinctively resorted to cheerful intimidation and psychologically toying to remind them that he was the one in charge and would happily destroy anyone who displeases him. He was instinctively treacherous, having no qualms over remorselessly betraying even his most loyal allies, as shown when he betrayed and mutilated Fergus, in addition to having his former servant's entire family killed, once he grew to see the fallen angel as obsolete, even though Fergus was nothing but loyal to the King of Hell and was even willing to die for him. He also went out of his way to secretly stir conflicts between Hell's Overlords in order to keep them vying for his favor and for pure entertainment, orchestrating said conflicts as if he was a child making his favorite action figures fight each other.

Lucifer often employs displays emotionally manipulative/abusive tactics on others; he claims that he loves Charlie and that he tried to be a good father and "raise her right", but their relationship was, for the longest time, extremely dysfunctional: he has called her a failure and an embarrassment to him, has emotionally abused her, and was prone to spouting mean-spirited jokes at her expense while oblivious to how cruel he came off as. Though their relationship was later repaired, he treated Charlie less like a daughter and mostly as a means to ensure his dominion remains universal, intending to shape her into a ruthless tyrant like himself so that she can succeed in his throne and keep every demon in Hell under the control of the Magne family.

While most of Lucifer's relationships are highly toxic or purely professional, the King of Hell is, ultimately, capable of genuine affection, and nowhere is that more potent or evident than with his wife and queen, Lilith. He and Lilith are sickeningly in love with each other, with the King of Hell gifting her with extravagant objects; barely being able to keep his hands off of her; serenading her with instruments and love songs; and the slightest of her actions is enough to drive him wild, causing him to imitate animal noises, hit himself on the head with a comically large mallet and faint. During their honeymoon, he promised Lilith that he would "flip Heaven and Earth" if anything unfortunate ever happened to her. He also, surprisingly, does love Charlie, being dismayed that his daughter is unable to see eye-to-eye with him, and although he had no compunctions over psychologically abusing her in a sad*stic manner, he has never attempted to kill or seriously harm her, and he views breaking her heart as both a means to an end, and a lesson that misery builds character. Lucifer, too, cherished his stillborn children who came before Charlie, trying in vain to prevent their deaths with his divine power, grieving alongside Lilith over their tragic losses.

While the King of Hell despises sinners, he is neutral towards natural Hellborn demons and plans to spare them in his plan to rewrite the Universe, if only to allow Charlie some spare subjects after she succeeded his throne. He is also fairly benign and affable to those who respect him and stay out of his way, although he still views them as inferior or a subordinate regardless. Finally, despite his megalomaniacal nature, he is somewhat capable of learning from his mistakes: he acknowledges his Father as an extremely powerful being who he refuses to face alone, learning from his mistake of greatly underestimating His power during the War in Heaven. In addition, although their power pales in comparison to his own, he is capable of seeing value in the service and obedience of Hell's Overlords.

As of Chapter 5, Lucifer seems to have fell into depression as Charlie pursued her own goals, seemingly moving on from him. The transformation of Hell's status quo, following the demise of Belphegor and Leviathan, further contributed to his desolation. His once perpetually cheerful demeanor gave way to a more passive-aggressive attitude, prone to bitter and nostalgic reflections on the past, which is often just him wistfully recalling violent, self-centered, and cruel acts he committed. Despite his depressive state, Lucifer still shows a lack of remorse or empathy for his victims and instead finding genuine amusem*nt, cheer, and nostalgia in the chaos he caused at his peak (such as complimenting the pâté he roasted by cooking it over the charred corpses and remains of a WackDonald's restaurant he burned down). He abandoned his ambitious aspirations, opting to isolate himself completely within Lu Lu World. There, he spent his days riding the attractions and watching his circus troupe, yet even these activities failed to bring him much joy.

Notably, Lucifer's demeanor had softened considerably during this period. When a random demon child hugged him, instead of reacting with fury, he could only reminisce about the days when Charlie, too, had embraced him as a child, leaving the demon child unscathed. His depression became even more evident when Mammon informed him of an Exterminator angel trespassing into Hell without permission from Hell's officials; Lucifer displayed complete and utter indifference to the breach of his own established laws by external forces.

During Charlie's visit to Lu Lu World, Lucifer was confronted by Charlie on his obsession with Lu Lu World. Showing vulnerability, Lucifer admitted to feeling abandoned by Charlie and Lilith; the King of Hell's pride had been shattered by his inability to "perfect" Hell, and by the resilience and determination of Charlie and the Hazbin crew. He even questioned why Charlie still cared for him despite his past transgressions, which, given the cruelty and severity of said transgressions, was a valid question. Moved when Charlie replied that she wanted Lucifer to find true happiness, Lucifer acknowledged that despite past differences, deep down he hoped to remain united and not be separated again by their differences, which Charlie agreed to. In a shocking turn of heart, Lucifer promised to support Charlie's dreams and expressed gratitude to have her as his daughter. Lucifer initiated a hug with his daughter, taking a step towards healing and understanding in their relationship. Additionally, he allowed Charlie to retrieve the rubber ducks that represented her friends' souls so that they could ascend to Heaven, showing a willingness to advance her goals as long as it brought her happiness (as well as out of spite towards Heaven, since Charlie stuck it to Heaven and proved its higher-ups wrong about redemption).

Appearance

During his years in Heaven, Lucifer was said to be an indescribably beautiful and handsome angel, with six angelic wings that spread for hundreds of miles, the face of an Adonis, and the physique of a Greek statue. But after being cast down from Heaven, he was punished by God for his vanity, and removed of his beauty, changing his appearance greatly. His true form has yet to be seen outside of shadows and silhouettes, but brief glimpses depict him as a large, wooly beast with devil-like horns similar to Satan; in other words, showing him as the malevolent monster he truly is. Despite losing his beauty, he was able to use his shapeshifting abilities to take on a much more appealing form.

Lucifer Magne is a thin fallen angel with pure white skin, short and fancy blonde hair, red cheeks (which he shares with his daughter), purple eyelids, and a mouth full of sharp, white teeth. He has light yellow eyes with slit, red pupils, giving him an almost snake-like appearance. He sports rather thin hands with long claws. He is of rather small stature compared to most demons, being slightly shorter than Charlie and a couple heads shorter than Lilith. Retaining his angelic flight, he is capable of spawning six wings which can retreat into his back when not in use. His wings are black in color and have large, red eyes along the wingspan. Lucifer is also capable of magically spawning two horns on his head, the same horns as his true form.

He wears a large, white top hat which has a light red stripe on it with his pet snake, Basil, coiled around it, and an apple on the brim. He primarily wears a stylish, white, and red coat with golden buttons, red and gold epaulettes resembling that of a circus ringmaster, a red and white striped vest, a black bowtie, a white dress shirt underneath, long black gloves, and white pants with black knee-high boots. He is almost always seen with a pointed, black scepter that is topped with a red apple that matches the one on his hat.

Powers and Abilities

Natural Powers

• Angelic Power: Lucifer was born with an astonishing amount of angelic power that rendered him naturally stronger than all demons and standard angels without having to train a day in his life. His angelic powers are what allowed him to keep his position as king of Hell, destroying anyone who attempted to take his position with the effort it takes to swat a fly. His capabilities extend far beyond even Hell's most powerful demons such as the Overlords, the Goetia Clan, and the Seven Deadly Sins, all of whom Lucifer regards as little more than personal servants. He is also capable of casually and effortlessly destroying other angels, as shown when he swiftly killed an Exterminator to protect Charlie and when he erased Oswald, a cherub, from existence with a snap of his fingers. His power allowed him to match Archangel Forti, who had battled Satan, an exiled Light Beyond the Star, during the war in Heaven and later during his fight in Purgatory. He surpasses even Death himself, being immune to his deadly touch. Lucifer's immense power is to the extant that he could easily create entire celestial bodies such as planets out of nothing, as he is consistently stated to be the creator of Hell's seven rings, and claims that he capable of destroying the entire Universe and reforming it at his command.
  • Animation: Lucifer possesses the remarkable ability to imbue inanimate objects with life, a power demonstrated through the creation of Razzle and Dazzle. These two entities were originally lifeless dolls until Lucifer granted them the gift of sentience and appointed them as Charlie's devoted bodyguards.
  • Cloudwalking: Lucifer can naturally walk and travel on clouds as if they were a solid surface, an ability that seems to only be applied to angels.
  • Divinity: As a fallen archangel and son of God, Lucifer possesses an incredibly amount of divine magic that allows him to truly destroy and erase the souls of sinners and demons, killing them spiritually and physically. He can also erase other angelic entities without much effort, such as when he casually killed an Exterminator with a spear to defend Charlie, and erased the cherub Oswald.
  • Ergokinesis: Lucifer can project red, white, yellow, and pink concussive blasts of pure concentrated energy from his hands, eyes, and from the edges of his wings. These blasts carry considerable power, as they are capable of permanently destroying demons and sinners, and were powerful enough to stun other archangels, such as Forti, and send him flying into the ground when he was caught off-guard.
    • Force-Field Generation: Lucifer can conjure extremely strong barriers of angelic energy to defend himself from offensive attacks. These forcefields are capable of vaporizing virtually anything hurled at the King of Hell before they can make contact with him.
  • Flight: As with all angels and archangels, Lucifer possesses wings that allow him to fly at tremendous speed, as well as levitate in midair. As a Seraph angel, he possesses six wings to denote his rank, rather than the usual two, which grant him far more speed and mobility than the average angel.
  • Fire Immunity: Lucifer is immune all manner of fire, including hellfire and holy fire. As a Seraph angel, fire burns within Lucifer naturally.
  • Immortality: Lucifer is immortal and is incapable of dying through any natural or mortal means. Being one of the first creations of God, he has been alive since nearly the beginning of time and life itself, almost before the creation of the Universe. As a seraph angel, he is virtually invincible to any physical or magical form of harm, outside of the power of equal or superior divine magic, or archangel blades. He never seems to tire even after sustaining injuries, and is likely beyond the need of food, water, oxygen, or sleep to sustain himself. It is mentioned that not even Death himself has a grip on Lucifer's life, as the death god had previously confessed to Charlie that even he is unable to kill Lucifer, although he desperately wants to. Lucifer can only be destroyed by either entities who possess divine power superior to his own, or if he is smited with an archangelic blade. At one point, he told Forti that being decapitated makes him "kinda flustered", implying that he can survive his head being chopped off.
    • Immunity: Lucifer is one of the few entities in all creation that Death cannot kill, as he was shown to have shaken hands with the death god and suffer no ill effects, whereas most other entities would have died instantly. He is also impervious to natural diseases and illnesses, and, as a seraph, he is completely impervious to standard holy weaponry. He is also immune to entities who are capable of attacking and manipulating the soul, as he is said to lack one. Furthermore, Lucifer is immune to extremely cold and hot temperatures, as he was able to fly through Purgatory's harsh, freezing spacescape with no visible discomfort, and also showed no discomfort when he surrounded himself and Forti with a ring of fire, even when Forti himself displayed some discomfort.
    • Nigh-Invulnerability: Like all archangels, Lucifer is blessed with invulnerability to nearly all forms of damage and injury. Nothing short of immensely powerful divine magic superior to his own can kill, or much less harm him, and even holy weapons, which are capable of easily killing demons and lower angels, have no effect on him. Though he was nearly killed by Michael, he was struck with multiple attacks from Forti that would have otherwise been devastating to normal angels, such as being blasted by the head archangel's destructive energy beams, but the King of Hell was still able to recover almost instantly and keep Forti on the ropes consistently throughout the battle. However, he is still vulnerable to entities of superior power or archangel weapons, as shown when Forti managed to cut Lucifer across the chest and stabbed him in the leg with Excalibur, the fallen angel bled and showed visible pain.
    • Regeneration: Lucifer's angelic physiology possesses a powerful regenerative healing factor, which allows him to quickly regenerate from wounds, regardless of the severity. His healing factor is especially potent as a result of being a seraph. Upon arriving to witness Satan corrupt Charlie firsthand after incapacitating Forti, all of the wounds Lucifer had received at the hands of Forti's sword had completely disappeared, which is especially notable as Excalibur is one of the few weapons in the Universe capable of harming and injuring Lucifer.
  • Nigh-Omnificence: Though creation is a natural power for angels, Lucifer's creation magic is especially potent; He is capable of instantly spawning objects such as instruments, knives, swords, flowers, and books out of thin air, and can easily creating living organisms of his design with a casual snap of his fingers, as demonstrated with the creation of Corey and Peel and his army of rubber ducks. He spends a good amount of his time creating zany inventions such as roller-coaster. Lucifer's creation magic is potent enough that he is capable of conjuring celestial bodies such as stars and planets, as he is said to have been the one who created Hell's seven rings, which are represented as small planets that reflect the nature of the sin said ring represents. It was claimed by Leviathan himself that Lucifer "gave Hell form", further hinting that he did in fact create the Inferno.
    • Weapon Manifestation: Using creation magic, Lucifer can manifest various weapons of angelic properties out of different parts of his body, most often his hands. He usually generates swords, blades, daggers, throwing knives, spears, and axes. These weapons are incredibly durable and sharp, and can swiftly kill any entity they cut with sufficient and lethal precision.
  • Photokinesis: As an angel, Lucifer has an amazingly strong connection to light, and is a proficient user of light manipulation, in which he was taught the ability by God Himself. Lucifer is able to create, shape, and manipulate light; unlike other angels, Lucifer is notable for using his holy light to melt demons and sinners down to flesh and bone, or shape his holy light into powerful energy beams capable of making demons explode into gore. He can also solidify light and create energy blasts, arrows, swords, and many other weapons out of solidified photons. As an angel, Lucifer also possesses an inner glow that occasionally appears whenever he finds himself in a dark environment, which subsequently allows him to see in darkness.
  • Supernatural Endurance: Lucifer has substantially greater endurance than a normal angel, allowing him to fly and fight for extremely long periods of time. During his battle with Forti, Lucifer fought the head archangel for several minutes on end, and kept fighting viciously with little fatigue despite receiving several wounds during the encounter, and did not appear to be fatigued even after the fight concluded.
    • Self-Sustenance: Lucifer possesses eternal stamina and does not require food, water, sleep, or oxygen to maintain himself.
  • Teleportation: Lucifer can travel anywhere he desires, this includes across the Universe and other dimensions, instantly without occupying the space in between, often vanishing and reappearing in a dazzling white light. However, he is currently unable to properly access Heaven and Earth, due to God's divine interference.
    • Dimensional Travel: Lucifer possesses the ability to travel across different dimensions. Lucifer can exit and enter even the prison dimension of Purgatory as he wishes, since he is a high-ranking angel, and easily travel back to Hell.

Unique Powers

• Animal Manipulation: Lucifer appears to have a symbiotic control over his pet snakes and can communicate with them telepathically. At one point, he was shown conducting a choir of penguins in attempt to teach them how to use the accordion.
• Atmokinesis: Lucifer can alter the weather across all seven rings of Hell to a seemingly limitless degree, but often in a way that depends on his mood, such as making it cloudy, sunny, or creating thunderstorms of many different kinds.
• Cerebrokinesis: Lucifer mentions that he has the ability to manipulate and control the minds of others. When exposing Fergus as a fallen angel to Vaggie, Angel Dust, Cherri Bomb, and Husk, Lucifer mentioned that he could have simply brainwashed Fergus into aiding him in the War in Heaven, but decided not to, as he considers manipulation more interesting and "fun".
• Clairvoyance: Lucifer can see and hear through all of the eyeballs scattered throughout Hell, allowing him to use them as surveillance. He can also conjure magical screens with a simple wave of his hand that allow him to see and watch over anything and/or anyone across the seven rings of Hell.
• Dark Magic: Having mastered the powers of darkness and light, Lucifer has complete and total mastery over dark or demonic magic, eclipsing even the greatest of Overlords and demons in terms of raw power. His control over demonic magic is essentially unrivaled, and he is able to perform near-limitless amounts of feats.
  • Umbrakinesis: Having learned the ability from Satan, Lucifer can manipulate darkness and shadows with extreme proficiency, as well as darkening an area with his mere presence. He can also summon shadowy tentacles, tendrils, dark vortexes, and sentient creatures of darkness that he can manipulate to do his bidding.
• Elemental Manipulation: Lucifer can create, shape and manipulate the basic elements of nature, the rudimentary, simplest or essential parts/principles of which nature consists of. While he mostly prefers to use fire, he has on occasion used other elements such as earth, water, or the air.
  • Acidokinesis: Lucifer can produce clouds that generate sulfuric acid, as Angel Dust claims that Lucifer is responsible for the acid rainstorms present in parts of the Pride Ring.
  • Pyrokinesis: Lucifer can summon hellfire at will to attack his enemies, demonstrate his immense power, and cause massive damage to anything in his vicinity. The extent of his (literal) firepower is practically unlimited, as he was able to burn an entire town-sized orchard to the ground in a matter of seconds as a result of an outburst. Like Charlie, Lucifer can also spawn objects using his flames, conjuring weapons and his cherished rubber ducks from hellfire. Lucifer's fire is fatal to sinners and is even capable of injuring archangels, as shown he conjured a massive ring of fire around Forti and himself and keep the archangel on the ropes, and sent the archangel flying through the fire with an energy blast, causing Forti considerable pain as a result.
• Fragokinesis: Lucifer is capable of overcharging objects with unstable explosive energy with just a single gesture from his hand, causing them to overload and violently explode. This ability proved to be Lucifer's most commonly utilized method of dealing with melee-based opponents, as the attack would often injure or kill the wielder as a result, along with destroying their weaponry. During his attack on Heaven, Lucifer caused the swords and shields used by several warrior angels to overload and explode in their faces, injuring and killing several of them. Lucifer also used this method of attack against Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb when the Happy Hotel crew arrived to rescue Charlie in Satan's domain, easily detonating Cherri Bomb's own explosives before she could use them against him, injuring her severely, and causing Angel Dust's Thommy gun to melt and then blow up in his face. However, as Lucifer did not use this ability against Forti when the latter wielded Excalibur, it is unlikely that he can destroy archangel weapons.
• Existence Erasure: One of Lucifer's most powerful abilities allows the King of Hell to completely erase lowers entities from existence by just snapping his fingers, as demonstrated when he snapped the final Purgatory cherub, Oswald, out of existence, causing the cherub to contort unnaturally before vanishing in a blinding light as he helplessly screamed in agony.
• Hallucikinesis: Lucifer can create, shape and manipulate illusions/hallucinations, causing targets to see, hear, touch, smell and/or taste things which do not actually exist. While speaking with Ren upon his arrival to Hell, Lucifer created an illusory display of his fall from Heaven, followed by him taking over and ruling Hell, and then finally an image of him ruling over Heaven and the Universe to visualize to Ren his life story and what his future goals were while on a psychotic rant.
• Hammerspace: Lucifer is consistently show to be able to pull objects out of thin air, mainly instruments, gag items, and even "items" that would be spacially impossible to fit in his pocket, such as the entirety of Lu Lu World.
• Oneirokinesis: Lucifer can alter the dreams and nightmares of others, being able to affect the dreams of all within Hell. This is also one of his favorite methods of tormenting his victims and sinners. According to Angel Dust, Lucifer greatly enjoys giving sinners unpleasant dreams that remind them of their previous lives on Earth and loved ones, simply to mess with them and revel in their misery.
• Petrification: Lucifer often used petrification as a form of punishment towards sinners and his servants, preferring to keep their petrified bodies within his torture chambers as morbid decorations. It is heavily implied that victims of Lucifer's petrification are still alive and aware of what is happening around them, as evidenced by the frozen, screaming faces on several of the statues.
• Power Granting: Lucifer can bestow immense power into any entity of his choosing. He gifted Lilith with her demonic magic, which allowed her to become the third most powerful being in Hell. Razzle, Dazzle, Corey, and Peel all gained their demonic powers when Lucifer brought them into existence, and Missi Zilla and Carmilla became extremely powerful and feared Overlords after selling their souls to Lucifer for power.
• Shapeshifting: One of Lucifer's signature abilities is shapeshifting into seemingly anyone or anything he desires. It was said that during his assault on Heaven, Lucifer assumed the form of a gigantic dragon to battle God's forces. When Lucifer was banished from Heaven, he was also punished for his vanity and cursed with a much more malevolent and beastly form, but even then, he was still able to shape-shift into a more attractive guise, that being the form he currently uses. While threatening Corey and Peel, he shifted into a giant, snake-like form with his face and coil around the two angels as a way to intimidate them. During his battle with Forti, Lucifer shapeshifted into a dragon to combat the head archangel, and later assumed the form of a giant, clawed spider, using the sharped tips of his claws to pierce Forti several times. Among other things, he can change the shape of his pupils, spin his head 360 degrees, grow multiple extra arms, and drastically increase his weight.
• Sleep Inducement: While attempting to capture Heaven's Light from Charlie and the warrior angel Adina, Lucifer casted a blue shockwave attack that rendered Adina instantly unconscious when the wave struck her.
• Sonic Scream: When enraged, Lucifer is capable of shouting at such a high volume that it is capable of causing other entities to be flown back or even explode from the intensity. After discovering that God was the one who bestowed Heaven's Light upon Charlie, Lucifer screamed so loud that Corey and Peel were flown into a wall and reduced to a paste upon impact.
• Soul Manipulation: Lucifer can claim ownership over the souls of others through deals and contracts. Often times, demons sell their souls to him for immense power. Once under his control, Lucifer can summon his clients instantly, torture them spiritually for any defiance, or imprison and strip them of their powers if they rebel against him. IN extreme cases, he can outright erase their souls.
• Spatiokinesis: One of Lucifer's most powerful (and contested) powers. At the peak of his power, Lucifer is believed to be capable of tearing down and destroying the entire Universe at large, as well as rebuild it to his perfectionist imagery.
• Summoning: Lucifer is able to transport one or multiple entities or objects of choice directly to him with a simple snap of his fingers, at which they will appear before him in a ring of fire or flash of light. This was demonstrated when he transported Charlie from the Happy Hotel to her room in Lucifer's castle, and later when he materialized his scepter. He can also summon backup singers/dancers whenever he starts a musical number.
• Telekinesis: Lucifer is able to move and immobilize objects and living organisms around with his mind with great ease, as well as halt the motor skills of other entities to render them immobilized. While using telekinesis, he generally uses both elaborate and subtle hand gestures. During his encounter with Charlie's crew in Purgatory, Lucifer used his powers of telekinesis to easily immobilize Charlie and suspend her in mid-air, as well as to effortlessly take Heaven's Light from her hands. Moments afterward, he did the same to Fergus, effortlessly rag-dolling his former servant with ease, before violently tossing him into a rock wall. When the Happy Hotel crew attempted to escape from Lucifer and Satan in Baxter's spaceship, Lucifer caught the ship using his telekinetic powers before it was able to take off, and was seconds away from crushing it, until Forti intervened. When taking his anger out on the Vees in Purgatory, Lucifer used telekinesis to slam Vox into the ground with such force that it created a crater. While fighting the hotel crew during their mission to recue Charlie from Satan, Lucifer used his telekinetic powers to left Fergus in the air and attempted to slowly rip all of Fergus' limbs from his body, although his attempt to completely dismember Fergus was halted by Forti. While battling Forti moments later, Lucifer tore several large boulders from the ground and hurled them at Forti in an attempt to knock the archangel from the air, although Forti easily destroyed each boulder using Excalibur. When Blitzø charged Lucifer for threatening to imprison I.M.P and have Stolas executed, Lucifer immobilized Blitzø in place, mid-air, with one hand gesture.
  • Immobilization: With a simple hand gesture, Lucifer can use telekinesis to halt the motor skills of living organisms, leaving them frozen in place, unable to move in any way until he chooses to release them. When taking his anger out on the Vees, he casually immobilized Vox and Velvette while torturing Valentino with his angelic sword. Later, Blitzø attempted to attack the King of Hell with a knife for threatening his associates, Lucifer easily suspended the imp in place, leaving him unable to move.
• Transmutation: Lucifer can alter the shape of an object or even living entities. He demonstrated his skill in transmutation by turning his scepter into a trident and later an angelic sword, removing the color from a rainbow Charlie had created, and by turning a couch into a piano. In combat situations, Lucifer often utilizes his transmutation to effortlessly transform his enemies' weapons into harmless substances, as he instantly turned Angel Dust's ammo within his machine gun into confetti and balloon animals when the spider demon attempted to attack him. He also transmuted Baxter's robot minions into a countless swarm of snakes that he then sent to attack Baxter, Husk, and Niffty, and spawned a cage of stone pillars to trap Manco.
  • Biokinesis: Lucifer's transmutation rendered him capable of warping the biological aspects of living organisms, as he previously turned several of his servants into furniture and croquet balls, and transformed Corey and Peel into strips of confetti, although it was only temporary, as the two apple angels eventually returned to their original form after Lucifer released them. With just a shush motion, he silenced Vaggie and Angel Dust while torturing Fergus for information.

Abilities

• Authority: As the King of the Hell and absolute highest in Hell's hierarchy, Lucifer holds absolute dominion and authority over the demonic realm and all of its inhabitants, with countless forces and private armies to enforce his laws and policies, including the Overlords, the Ars Goetia, the Seven Deadly Sins, and Hell's corrupt police departments. His authority allows him to effectively do whatever he wants, give orders to others that must be followed under the threat of death, and allows him to order anyone who displeased him, even members of Hell's nobility, to be imprisoned or executed, regardless of the trumped-up charges. Regardless, he does not control the inhabitants of Hell, as most of Hell's denizens have no actual respect for Lucifer's authority.
• Combat Mastery: Lucifer is immensely skilled in combat, having been previously trained by his brothers, fellow archangels, and Father to protect Heaven. He seems to excel in sword and lance combat, and uses a plethora of blades which he can spawn at will, and of which he could unleash with lightning speed and deadly precision. He shows disdain towards mortal weaponry, such as firearms, which he regards as little more than "toys". His combat skills were first demonstrated on-screen during his battle with the highly skilled archangel, Forti, who was regarded as God's strongest angel by the cherubs. Even after centuries of almost never engaging in combat, Lucifer was able to keep Forti on the ropes despite the latter's far more superior experience, and once he parried Excalibur from Forti's hands, even briefly dominated the head archangel and injured him by successfully severing one of the archangel's six wings. Although Forti and Lucifer's battle ended with no clear winner, as the King of Hell had called off the fight early, Lucifer was one of the only entities in the Universe that was able to singlehandedly overpower Forti, and did so with moderate ease. This is especially notable as not even the archdemon Beelzebub (who was completely dominated by Forti in their fight), or Satan itself could contend with Forti without some assistance. Although, this was likely as a result of Forti becoming weakened by Satan's poisoning and not performing as well as he could have if not infected.
• Charisma/Manipulation: Lucifer uses his charisma and suave exterior as a way of making incredibly tempting deals for his 'clients'. However, like most dealmakers, Lucifer does not get into the specifics and leaves out certain conditions when making a bargain. This resulted in his victims calling him out on being a liar when they fall in line with his nefarious plans, but he often rebukes this by stating that he only said what they wanted to hear, though this is mainly for his amusem*nt.
  • Deal-Making: Lucifer is capable of gaining more power through deals, granting his clients power that most sinners could never hope to achieve while at the same time taking control of his client's souls to keep them from using their new power against him and order them as he pleases. Carmilla Carmine and Missi Zilla were able to become some of the most powerful Overlords in Hell's history thanks to their deals with Lucifer. However, Lucifer no longer makes deals with other demons due to many of his past clients either attempting to betray him or ending up getting erased due to their own arrogance, thus he no longer wanted to put up with other demons' "bullsh*t".
  • Deception: Lucifer often utilizes his comedic façade as a way to lower the guards of his perceived enemies, tricking them into believing that he was a harmless and doddering fool, only revealing his true nature when it was already too late for his victims. Lucifer's deceptive personality, of course, was useless against those who were already aware of the King of Hell's true nature.
• Intimidation: One of Lucifer's most utilized traits is his ability to strike fear into even the most powerful of entities, due to his unpredictable and merciless behavior. The mere mention of his name is enough to frighten even the most powerful of Hell's demons, send a street full of sinners scattering, and allows him to keep all demons under his thumb out of the sheer fear of what he would do to them if they refused to obey him. Despite his goofy façade, he intimidated an entire room of high-class demons into singing along with him, despite many demons dismissing singing and music. Later, he effectively intimidated the Vees into sabotaging Charlie's operation faster by threatening to torture and likely erase them. He also intimidated Charlie after summoning her to his castle, as she failed to make eye contact and stuttered numerous times in her own father's presence. On one Extermination Day, Lucifer managed to unnerve even the cold-blooded Exterminators after killing one of their own with no effort, fearlessly ordering them to return to cleansing Hell, to which they did with little hesitation. He effectively uses his intimidation to control the members of the Seven Deadly Sins, all of whom (with the exception of Leviathan) acknowledge that he is their superior, and that he will eagerly kill anyone he pleases. During the Seven Deadly Sins' meeting, one threatening stare from the King of Hell made Leviathan, one of the most powerful and ancient demons in history, stutter and (with a nervous inflection in his speech) make it clear that his statement about angels being "winged rodents" did not include Lucifer himself. Indeed, due to most of Hell's denizens lacking respect to any form of authority, the King of Hell must control many of his servants entirely through fear. Even Archangel Forti is, to a certain extent, scared of Lucifer, and, along with the cherubs, feared for what would become of Heaven if Lucifer returned to the sacred realm.
• Master Torturer: Being the King of Hell and tormenter of all sinners, Lucifer is one of the foremost experts in torture and making people suffer, both physically and spiritually, which he takes immense enjoyment in. Some of his preferred methods of torturing his prisoners include mutilating his victims using a combination of knives and spears, dismembering their limbs, forcing them to cannibalize themselves, flaying them, removing their eyeballs, having them sexually abused by his underlings, or inflicting deep psychological torture by cursing them with horrific visions and constant nightmares, leaving them unable to sleep. He is also proficient enough to perform all of the aforementioned acts of torment on his victims without killing them prematurely. His torture methods were so extreme and profound that the memories of it would haunt his surviving victims years after the fact and in some cases, such as Fergus, caused them to suffer from extreme hallucinations, nightmares, and thoughts of suicide.
• Multilingualism: Lucifer is well-versed in human languages such as English, French, and Italian, his capability of French being seen in his interactions with Lilith. He can also speak in both angelic and demonic tongues.
• Musical Talent: Like his wife and daughter, Lucifer excels at music and possesses phenomenal singing and dancing capabilities, staging elaborate musical numbers with his rubber ducks. He can play virtually every instrument with masterful talent, being particularly fond of the accordion, violin, fiddle, and piano. Even in the present, modern angels regard Lucifer as one of the most gifted musicians in Heaven's history.
• Natural Weaponry: Lucifer can use his claws, teeth, wings, and the horns of his true form as offensive weapons.
• Sword Mastery: Lucifer demonstrated a considerable skill with an angelic sword, which is shown to be his primary weapon when engaging in close combat. Lucifer was able to fight on par with Forti and stab the archangel multiple times, as well as slice in half several energy blasts which were blasted at him at a rapid rate.
• Wealth: Lucifer is one of the wealthiest entities in Hell due to his status (only beaten by Mammon), which grants him the ability to have practically everything he wants, including a theme park in his image which he had built on a whim.

Weapons

• Angelic Blades: Lucifer is capable of manifesting blades of angelic properties from his body, from daggers to swords. Lucifer's most utilized weapon for engaging in combat is an angelic sword with a jagged blade. These swords were durable and powerful enough to harm and injure even the head archangel, Forti.
• Scepters: Lucifer is rarely seen without his signature pointed scepter that is topped with an apple. He can summon his scepter at will as well as create new ones entirely from scratch, and is shown to possess a collection of them. Although they are more of a symbol of his authority, he has previously used his scepter to vibe check people who annoy him, such as Corey and Peel. Lucifer's scepters are also noticeably sharped at the end, allowing him to use the scepter as essentially a pike to injure his targets.

Weaknesses

• Archangel Weaponry: While Lucifer is completely invulnerable to weapons used by angels and the Exterminators, weapons that are used and wielded by the archangels, such as Forti's sword Excalibur, can cause severe injury to him and, depending on the skill of the wielder, are capable of erasing him. During his battle with Forti, Lucifer sustained multiple injuries as a result of being cut and stabbed with Forti's blade, and he showed considerable pain as a result.
• Arrogance: Lucifer is extremely arrogant and co*cky, to the point where it often frequently proves to be a detriment to himself while confronting his enemies. As seen during his battle with Forti and encounters with Charlie and the hotel crew, Lucifer loves toying with his opponents whenever he fights or engages with them, and always takes the time to rub in his enemies' faces how puny and weak they are compared to him, often giving the opponent the chance to gain the upper hand or potentially injure him while he is in the middle of bragging.
• Divine Intervention: One of Lucifer's most significant weaknesses is the power of superior divine entities. According to Death, God is capable of destroying him. Lucifer is also susceptible to God's intervention, as he is incapable of entering Heaven or Earth due to God preventing those realms from granting access to him. Archangels like Forti and Michael, the head archangel and protector of Heaven, was also said to wield enough power to harm and completely destroy Lucifer.
• Psychopathy: Lucifer possesses absolutely no remorse for his heinous deeds, nor regard for anyone outside of his wife, Lilith, and his daughter, Charlie. He is incredibly treacherous and disloyal, having no qualms over betraying even his most loyal allies who were willing to die for him if he saw no use for them, such as the case of his betrayal of Fergus. While this makes the King of Hell significantly more ruthless, many of his relationships have been jeopardized due to his callous nature, vastly weakening the loyalty some may have had for him and sometimes leading to them going behind the King of Hell's back.

Relationships

Family

God

God is Lucifer's Father and Creator. In the past, Lucifer was God's favorite creation, and Lucifer relished his position as God's favorite, allowing it to get to his head. However, while Lucifer was initially content with God ruling existence, this dynamic change when humanity became God's favorite creation. Lucifer was enraged when God chose humans over him, and this rage boiled over when God continued to love humanity and gave them a path to salvation after they were corrupted by the Root of Evil. Lucifer came to the conclusion that he could rule the Universe better than God and planned to usurp his Father's throne, but Michael defeated Lucifer on God's behalf when his attempted usurpation came to fruition and banished him from Heaven for his crimes.

In the present, Lucifer clearly still holds limitless resentment for God, and is jealous of his position as ruler of Heaven and, by extension, the Universe, while he was reduced to ruling Hell, and has been plotting the death of his Father since his banishment. He views God as senile and incompetent for supposedly not seeing his potential as the "better" ruler of Heaven. Upon his fall from grace, God also punished His traitorous son for his vanity by cursing him with a monstrous form, thus taking away his son's beauty and the thing he was most prideful of, which only increased the King of Hell's hatred of his Father. Lucifer hates God so much that he cannot even stand the mere mention of His name, to the extent that mentioning God in the King of Hell's presence is a crime punishable by death in Hell. Lucifer has also constantly tried to pervert and twist Charlie's idea of God by painting Him as an unforgiving, merciless, and shallow tyrant.

Despite hating God and believing him to be a senile fool, it is implied that Lucifer is fearful of God and His limitless powers, as he refuses to face his Father alone, having learned from his mistake during the War in Heaven.

Brothers

During his years in Heaven, Lucifer had six brothers. Not much is known about his relationship with them in great detail, but as one of the final steps in his plan, he attempted to entice them into helping him in his goal of murdering their Father and taking over Heaven. His brothers, however, refused and were horrified by his nature, now seeing him for who he truly was. Out of fear that they would inform the populace or their Father of his intentions, as well as prodding from Satan, Lucifer orchestrated his brothers' assassination by having them murdered by Fergus, even bestowing him with an archangelic sword to do the dirty deed.

Charlie Magne

Charlie is Lucifer's daughter and heir apparent to his throne. Though Lucifer does love Charlie and wishes the two of them could see eye-to-eye on things, he is well known to have an extremely volatile relationship with his daughter. He can be very vicious, condescending, and borderline controlling towards his daughter, constantly remarking her as a failure, and outright referred to her entire existence as a "cruel joke" all because she has a dream. Despite her rebellion, he sought to mold her into a worthy successor and heir so that she would take his place as ruler of Hell once he ascended to Heaven, possibly explaining why he is so hard on her all the time, and implying that he has not completely lost hope in her being the heir to his throne. Furthermore, Lucifer also does not appreciate anyone but him - or those he orders to - hurting Charlie, hence why he created Razzle and Dazzle to serve as her bodyguards. As such, he does not appreciate it when other demons disrespect Charlie, since she is the heir to his throne after all, and is willing to punish anyone who disparages her in front of him, as seen by him smacking and admonishing Corey and Peel for comparing her to Belphegor. Throughout her entire life, he also regularly gave the young princess advice to not let other, more unscrupulous demons walk all over her, which was one of the few pieces of advice from her father that Charlie took to heart.

Although their relationship is significantly more complicated in the present, the King of Hell was far more amiable and fatherly towards his daughter during her early childhood, as flashbacks show that they spent much of their time playing games with each other, bonding at Lu Lu World, and he would often entertain his daughter and serenade her with his instruments whenever she became emotional. Lucifer also protected his young daughter from the violent sinners of Hell by barring her from leaving the castle grounds.

During Charlie's developing years, Lucifer remained protective and supportive attitude towards Charlie, albeit his whimsically twisted sense of humor remained intact, taking on a mentor-like. He was shown to be offended when he perceived Charlie being mocked by her peers, "jokingly" telling her to kill them before demonstrating his protective instinct by intimidating them into respecting her. Not wanting Charlie to be taken advantage of, Lucifer took it upon himself to tech Charlie how to assert herself in the demon world, advising her not to tolerate mistreatment from others and providing colorful examples of retaliatory actions she could take. Despite the exaggerated nature of his advice, it was clear that he wanted Charlie to stand up for herself and not be pushed around.

However, Lucifer and Charlie's close relationship changed completely when he showed the princess what the Exterminations truly were, which scarred her for life as she witnessed the carnage of the Exterminators and brutal deaths of her people. He was indifferent to his daughter's trauma and used the Exterminations as a lesson about the nature of Hell's ways, and reminded her that one day, she would govern over the realm in his place. This was the experience that sent Charlie on the path to discover a way to stop the annual Exterminations. As Charlie began taking an interest in the subjects of Heaven, God, and redemption, Lucifer became increasingly crueler and more short-tempered with her, as he had forbidden her to learn such things.

In most instances, Lucifer adopted a jovial, paternal, and amiable demeanor when interacting with Charlie. However, this façade swiftly dissolves whenever she deviates from his expectations or expresses her beliefs. He derived great pleasure from ridiculing her perceived ineffectiveness in redeeming sinners, treating her aspirations as mere jests. He was also prone to spouting mean-spirited quips about her failures, oblivious to how cruel he came across as. As a consequence of his unpredictable behavior, Charlie was perpetually apprehensive, tense, and uneasy in her father's presence, stumbling over her words and avoiding making eye contact. After disclosing her longing for Heaven to her father, Lucifer consistently belittles her aspirations whenever the opportunity arises, subjecting the princess to considerable emotional strain and leaving her with a pervasive sense of disbelief from those around her.

After Charlie left the family castle to pursue her goals, Lucifer progressively fell into a depressive stew over her absence. This led him to close off Lu Lu World to the public and begin secluding himself in his own theme park, surrounding himself with things that give him happiness. Despite bluntly dismissing her dreams, he frequently tried to reconnect with Charlie and bring her back to his side - sometimes in an emotionally manipulative way -, but only pushed her back more due to his refusal to accept her way of seeing things.

While Lucifer did allow Charlie to convert the Poison Apple - a vacation home long abandoned by the Magne family - into the Happy Hotel, he only allowed her to do so both as a joke and a lesson to prove once the operation would fail horribly. He also laughed about how "stupid" Charlie was to think sinners could be redeemed once he realized she was being serious about the project. When it was discovered that redeeming sinners was likely a possibility, he became nonplussed and enraged when he found out there was a chance that the Happy Hotel could potentially succeed.

When Lucifer discovered it was very likely that sinners could be redeemed and go to Heaven, his relationship with Charlie grew even worse; He saw her goals as a complete insult to everything that he stood for and established in Hell all that time. In his mind, his status as the “King of Hell” would mean nothing to anybody if all sinners were redeemed left Hell, and Lucifer, being a megalomaniac, does not want to rule over a handful of Hellborn demons. As such, he is not above tormenting Charlie by sending his many underlings and other demons to attack her and her friends, seemingly willing to do anything to impede her efforts, including trying to have her friends killed. In "We Can Be Heroes", Lucifer stood by and allowed Charlie to nearly be corrupted by Satan, perfectly willing to let the princess be stripped of her free will as long as it meant she could be converted into a worthy heir.

During his song "My Darling Applepie", which is sung after his confrontation with Charlie after her interview about the hotel, Lucifer expresses his inner turmoil through song, softly reminiscing about Charlie's childhood and the fun and love he shared with the princess, before angrily singing about her interests in Heaven and redemption. In the final verse of the song, he somberly sings while looking at a portrait of the princess when she was a child, calmly breaking the photo's frame while he laments that, as much as he always loved her and wishes she could go back to the little girl he once knew, he just cannot bring himself to love her anymore, ending the song by calmly tearing the photo in half.

Lucifer and Charlie's relationship took a more positive turning point when Charlie visited Lucifer in Lu Lu World on a mission to retrieve Lucifer's rubber ducks that represented her friends, so they could go to Heaven upon being redeemed. In a moment of respite where they could catch up on each other's lives, Lucifer shared his approach to finding joy and having fun amidst his life's recent challenges. Charlie expressed concern about his seclusion in Lu Lu World, highlighting its potential harm. Lucifer, ever a showman, theatrically toured Charlie through Lu Lu World, illustrating that it was a little piece of what Lucifer wanted Hell to be. Lucifer and Charlie found themselves in the highest seats in Lu Lu World's ferris wheel. There, Charlie gently addressed Lucifer's self-destructive behaviors, wanting a request. Lucifer's goofy and carefree facade vanished as he reluctantly opened up about using Lu Lu World as a coping mechanism, stemming from feeling abandoned by his family and seeing his idealized vision of a joyful Hell shattered over time. He questioned why Charlie still cared despite his past actions, prompting her to emphasize her enduring hope for everyone in Hell, including Lucifer, to find true happiness.

Charlie and Lucifer acknowledged that despite past differences, deep down they both hoped to remain united and not be separated again by their differences. In a shocking turn of heart, Lucifer said he always wanted to know who Charlie really was, before calling her his daughter and his pride. He promised to support Charlie's dreams, and expressed gratitude to have her as his daughter. This heartfelt exchange culminated in an initially awkward "apology hug" which they both eased into, signifying a step towards healing. Lucifer appeared to reconcile with his own flaws, channeling his pride into Charlie and assisting her in her endeavors to prevent her from succumbing to the same despair that he experiences.

Lilith

Lilith is Lucifer's wife and the Queen of Hell. Initially, Lucifer and Lilith were absolutely obsessed with each other, and hopelessly in love, which stood in stark contrast to Lucifer's usual narcissistic disposition, where he deems all life beneath him. Their love was an all-consuming obsession. He practically worshiped the ground she walks on, serenading her with romantic melodies played on his instruments and striving to impress her even during the torment of sinners. Their relationship could also be endearingly macabre, due to Lucifer's awkward attempts at flirting (in which he is totally oblivious to how creepy he sounds to those outside of their relationships) and the two often having tit-for-tat exchange of macabre, sexually-charged threats geared to turn the other on and show off their affection for each other, resulting in passionate make-out sessions. While other people are disturbed by it, it's merely fun and games to the King and Queen of Hell.

Lilith and Lucifer met after Lucifer's fall from Heaven and descent to Earth, where Lilith found the fallen prince and nursed his injuries, taking him to her and Adam's humble dwelling. During his recovery, a deep connection blossomed between Lucifer and Lilith, as she was captivated by his lively and enthusiastic personality. He eccentrically and nerdily shared his aspirations of crafting a "fun" Universe for himself and his family, warping her view of God and causing Lilith to betray her previous beliefs. Lilith generously shared with Lucifer the remaining, revitalizing fruits she had saved from her time in Eden, originally intended for herself, Cain, Abel, and Adam, further solidifying her bond with the fallen prince of Heaven.

When Lilith ashamedly opened up about her true identity as an inner demon of Eve, Lucifer, perhaps for the first time in his existence, showed compassion to someone besides himself, telling her to wipe away the troubles of her past and that he was her friend. He affirmed Lilith's worth and acknowledging that she is good, calling her the sole mortal worthy of any love. With genuine empathy, he assures her that her past is irrelevant and that she deserves better than her current situation, praising her virtues and the love she has shown him. In his eyes, she is not simply a demon, but a woman deserving of re spect and love.Lucifer's charisma breathed new life into Lilith's otherwise miserable existence on Earth. After the fallen prince had recovered, Lilith joined him in Hell, where he gifted her with immortality and demonic powers for her troubles.

Prior to leaving Earth with her, Lucifer nervously and awkwardly gifted Lilith with a lily plant as a token of gratitude for tending to him following his descent from Heaven, admitting to not knowing what humans liked as gifts and that he had never given anyone a gift before. Lilith was so touched and gratified by this that she based her name, "Lilith", on this gift.

Their wedding night bore witness to a solemn vow from Lucifer, who promised to turn Heaven and Earth upside down should any harm ever befall his beloved Lilith. In response, Lilith passionately sealed their bond with a kiss, cementing their unwavering commitment. Even when tempted by Valentino's offer of his top workers, Lucifer firmly declined, reminding the pimp that he was a married man, showcasing his unwavering fidelity to his cherished wife and queen. This unbreakable bond between Lucifer and Lilith is a testament to the profound love that transcends even the darkest depths of Hell where adultery is encouraged.

Lucifer is awkwardly, disturbingly romantic around Lilith, albeit in a way that endears him to her. He often expresses his feelings in bizarre and exaggerated ways, such as making ransom note love letters from her dead skin cells and eyelashes as opposed to newspaper clippings. He also casually mentions that he watches her sleep at night as if that is a normal thing. From complimenting her every little actions such as he way she blinks, he often builds elaborate fantasies about their future together. His expressions range from humorous to darkly absurd, with mentions of surgically grafting their bodies together and wearing each other's skin, albeit "not in a creepy way."

Their relationship dynamic is a striking juxtaposition, with Lilith assuming the role of the "adult" while Lucifer maintains an immature and childlike demeanor. Within the realms of Hell, Lilith serves as the proactive monarch who actively oversees its intricate politics and management. She takes charge of the responsibilities that come with her position, maintaining order in the underworld. In contrast, Lucifer is much more carefree and childish. He pursues his own interests and revels in the luxuries and privileges of his lifestyle. Often preoccupied with his hobbies and personal pursuits, he allows Lilith to handle the day-to-day affairs of Hell, trusting her capable leadership. This dynamic sees Lilith as the responsible and practical force in their partnership, while Lucifer enjoys the freedom of indulging in his whims and passions. Together, they create a harmonious balance in the complex and ever-evolving realm they call home.

Despite their undying love and devotion for each other, Lucifer and Lilith contrast each other greatly in regards to their relationships with Charlie. Charlie is far closer to her mother than she is with her father, as Lilith was the first person Charlie turned to when her interview of the Happy Hotel had failed, and Lilith does genuinely loves and care about Charlie. Lilith has even attempted to convince her husband to let Charlie follow her dreams and find out the truths of the Universe for herself, despite not believing Charlie's dreams are realistic. In contrast, Lucifer was, for the longest time, scornful of Charlie's dreams and viewed her as a disappointment. It is unknown if this has caused any tension in Lucifer and Lilith's relationship.

Following Lucifer isolating himself in Lu Lu World, Katie Killjoy and Tom Trench stated on the 666 News that Lucifer and Lilith had separated. Corey and Peel shed more light on this, claiming Lilith left Lucifer because he is unrecognizable now. Instead of the goofy, fun, hopeful man that Lilith fell in love with and who wanted to make Hell a fun place for himself and his family, Lucifer is now a bitter, mean shadow of his former self who can't find joy or hope in life anymore. Lucifer later clarified that Lilith had been isolating herself and has been going through things with her "other half", and although she wants to be there for Lucifer, she has her own plate full.

Allies

Alastor

Lucifer and Alastor share an unconventional friendship, united by their eccentricities and love for theatrical flair. Their relationship is characterized by mutual admiration stemming from shared narcissism and theatrical inclinations. They engage in playful duets akin, acting like vaudevillian goofballs, and respect each other's talents, with Alastor acknowledging Lucifer as his king in Hell, while Lucifer admires Alastor's musical taste and captivating charisma. Most of Lucifer's affinity for Alastor is rooted in Alastor's bold overthrow of the Pride Ring's Overlords, which led to a restructuring of Hell and resolved many territorial disputes which proved to be a headache for Lucifer.

Satan

During his years in Heaven, Lucifer encountered Satan during his travels, who revealed to Lucifer its nature as a fallen Light Beyond the Stars. Satan would utilize Lucifer's hatred of humanity, desire to reign over all creation, and fascination with dark magic to seduce him. Satan proclaimed him to be the fiercest and most ambitious angel in all of Heaven, and made a deal to help the prince corrupt God's angels and subsequently overthrow Him, in exchange for what was essentially Lucifer's eternal servitude. After Lucifer agreed, Satan would assist the Prince of Heaven in forcibly corrupting thousands of angels against their Creator. With Lucifer's charm and Satan's corrupting influence, they amassed an army of thousands of spiritual beings against God. With their army assembled, the two attempted to take over Heaven and kill God and His followers, only for their plan was thwarted by the Almighty and the head archangel, Forti.

A billion years later in the present, Lucifer summoned Satan, making a deal with the dark god to destroy Heaven's Light so that no redeemed sinners could enter Heaven, and thus would remain under Lucifer's control for as long as he was king of the demonic realm.

Despite their continued partnership, Lucifer is shown to not be very loyal towards his master, as he seemingly never attempted to free Satan from its prison in Purgatory, and some dialogue implies the two have not seen or talked to each other since they were cast from Heaven. Despite Satan being his so-called "master", Lucifer is ever ready to question the Devil, and not afraid to talk back to Satan if its intentions do not line up with his plans, such as when he ordered the Devil to not kill Charlie after it claimed she and her friends needed to die, since he wanted her alive in his plan to overthrow God, further showing that Lucifer is more concerned with his own dreams than assisting Satan in its goals.

While reconciling with Charlie, Lucifer expressed pride in Charlie for opposing the Devil.

Corey and Peel

Corey and Peel were formerly Lucifer's two loyal servants. They were created by Lucifer to serve as replacements to Razzle and Dazzle after the two goats betrayed him to help Charlie with her goals of redeeming sinners. Lucifer is usually very dismissive and cruel to Corey and Peel, despite their undying loyalty. He punishes the two harshly, torments them for his amusem*nt, and allows them to be humiliated in public without even bothering to help them. Indeed, Corey and Peel fear the King of Hell immensely and are used as punching-bags during his outbursts.

Regardless, Lucifer has displayed small traces of humanity in his relationship with Corey and Peel; he occasionally spends his free time eating breakfast and lunch with the two and seems to have a surprising amount of faith in them as he continuously sends them out with various missions and tasks, most of which are rather major. Lucifer is also surprisingly forgiving towards them, since they have retained their positions despite repeated failures and bungles, whereas he could just kill the two and replace them with more competent henchmen. Nonetheless, he still views the two as expendable and replaceable, and showed no mercy whenever they failed to impress him.

Lucifer effectively fired Corey and Peel and kicked them out of The Circus shortly after he had given up on all of his ambitions simply because he was annoyed over them reporting things to him (in other words, doing their job), since he had lost interest in basically everything. This was met with disgust by Charlie - who took pity on the two after seeing them living in a cardboard box and arguing with each other -, who then hired the two as bellboys at her hotel.

Basil

Basil is among the numerous pet serpents in Lucifer's entourage, serving as the personal companion of the King of Hell. Basil's constant presence is a familiar sight, often found coiled around Lucifer's top hat as they journey together. The two share a unique and symbiotic connection, enabling Lucifer to see through Basil's eyes and communicate with the serpent telepathically.

Lucifer and Basil enjoy a rather unconventional camaraderie. Their relationship goes beyond mere companionship, as Basil occasionally imparts advice to Lucifer, particularly during moments when the King of Hell is inflicting torment upon his unfortunate prisoners. Their close bond extends into the macabre, with Basil playing an unexpected role in Lucifer's dark and sinister pursuits.

Rubber ducks

An army of sentient rubber ducks Lucifer has accumulated over his years of Hell. In actuality, these ducks are the physical manifestation of the souls of sinners, which spawn in Lu Lu World when a new soul is damned to Hell. They serve as his personal troupe, assisting him in musical numbers and comforting him whenever he becomes emotional. They seem to serve as Lucifer's consultants whenever he becomes enraged or distressed, such as suggesting to the King of Hell that he hire the Vees to destroy Heaven's Light.

Pluto

Pluto was Lucifer's servant. Lucifer treated Pluto like a slave, as expected for a servant, and constantly mistreated him by berating him for minor mistake, and standing on his back while posing for family portraits so that he would appear taller than Charlie and Lilith. In "Red Smoke", Lucifer tortured Pluto after catching him wearing socks with sandals. After cutting Pluto's fingers off and eating them, Lucifer's torture session was interrupted when Peel informed the king of urgent news. Attending to the matter, the King of Hell casually said "Hold this, Pluto," before calmly impaling Pluto with an angelic spear, killing him.

The Vees

Lucifer initially held Vox, Velvette, and Valentino in high regard as some of his best mercenaries and Overlords. Whenever things get rough, he entrusted the three to assist him with his problems, such as stopping Charlie's efforts, or eliminating any other Overlords who have threatened to overthrow the King of Hell. It was also said that Lucifer occasionally visited their nightclubs as he enjoys watching their shenanigans.

Despite this, Lucifer's trust and reliance on the three of them was contested when Lucifer ordered the Vees to stop Charlie's goals of rehabilitating sinners from succeeding by destroying Heaven's Light. At one point, after repeated failures, he threatened Valentino and his cohorts with brutal torture and possibly death should they disappoint him again. Once the King of Hell was informed by Corey and Peel that Valentino's final plan to destroy the Happy Hotel was thwarted, he was absolutely furious, calling Val a "pupating hack" and calling Velvette and Vox "modern sh*theads", confirming that the three have more or less completely lost Lucifer's favor.

In Chapter 3, it is shown that Valentino, Vox, and Velvette are, to some degree, back in Lucifer's good graces; Satan tasked the Three Vs with capturing one half of the Happy Hotel crew, and the Three Vs successfully carried out the task and brought them before Lucifer, and the King of Hell responded by praising the three sinners and stating that he would not have torture them as he had planned.

However, this all takes a turn following the eight year timeskip in "No Time Left", when Lucifer attacked the Vees over their failure to capture Heaven's Light, as well as out of his personal anger for them failing him previously. Lucifer attacked Vox and Velvette with various telekinetic powers, before torturing Valentino with his angelic sword by stabbing the moth demon in the arm. Fortunately for the Three Vs, the King of Hell relented and informed the three Overlords that the Happy Hotel crew were en route to Baxter's laboratory, and ordered the Overlords to stop the crew before they could escape.

Mammon

Mammon is one of Lucifer's longest running servants, being a founding member of the Seven Deadly Sins with the King of Hell. Despite their partnership and Mammon priding himself on being Lucifer's number one, the King of Hell thinks very little of Mammon and seems barely aware of his existence half the time. In the Greed Ring, Mammon operates a theme park named Loo Loo Land, a shameless imitation of Lucifer's highly successful Lu Lu World. There is an implication that Lucifer knows Mammon's attempts to curry favor and climb the social ladder are insincere, resulting in him intentionally depriving Mammon of attention or praise.

Lucifer is cognizant of Loo Loo Land's existence and Mammon's profitable replication of the King of Hell's theme park. While Lucifer acknowledges that Mammon borrowed his "genius" idea, he expresses more offense at the fact that the King of Greed failed to seek his permission before making a soulless, corporate recreation of his cherished passion project.

Belphegor

Although the specifics of Lucifer and Belphegor's relationship remain elusive, there are indications that Lucifer holds little to no regard and respect for Belphegor. In private conversations deriding the other Sins, Lucifer described Belphegor as an "insufferable layabout who never shut his yap about sleeping."

When briefing the Sins on their missions against Heaven's Light, Lucifer (whether jokingly or unironically) claimed tat Belphegor likely would not survive their endeavor.

Following Belphegor's demise, Lucifer displayed a dismissive and callous reaction, labeling Belphegor as a "lazy f*cking prick" and instructing the other Sins to disregard both Belphegor's and Leviathan's deaths.

Enemies

Forti

Forti harbored an intense hatred for the King of Hell due to his betrayal of God and Heaven. This animosity was further fueled by the King's indirect role in the deaths of Forti's brothers, as he unleashed Satan upon Heaven. As a result, Forti made it his personal mission to annihilate both Lucifer and Satan, seeing them as a threat to the very fabric of the Universe. In return, Lucifer held a deep contempt for Forti, mocking him as a "lapdog" for his unwavering loyalty to God. Nevertheless, beneath this mutual disdain, there existed a begrudging respect between them. They recognized each other as formidable rivals in terms of power, a fact that neither could dismiss.

Forti's existence posed one of the few factors that made the King of Hell question his audacious plan to wage war against God. It demonstrated that the former Prince of Heaven possessed immense power, a realization that wasn't lost on Lucifer. While Forti found Lucifer to be "pathetic" in certain respects, the King's potential to overthrow God and his forces demanded Forti's utmost attention. He solemnly swore that if Charlie and her allies proved incapable of dealing with the King of Hell, he would take matters into his own hands, driven by a deep sense of responsibility and determination to protect the Universe.

In "We Can Be Heroes", Forti, after being out of commission for eight years as a result of being poisoned by Satan, aided the Happy Hotel crew in their mission to rescue Charlie from Satan's domain, leading to a one-on-one confrontation between Lucifer and Forti. Lucifer sad*stically mocked Forti for killing Adina, ignoring Forti when he pointed out that Satan had poisoned and forced him into doing so, and Forti proclaimed his desire to kill Satan after he had dealt with Lucifer. Shortly after, Forti and Lucifer engaged each other in a vicious fight, with Forti utilizing his recently recreated sword, Excalibur, and Lucifer using his own conjured angelic blade. The archangels were initially evenly matched, but Forti became weaker as a result of both the poison within him and the injuries he sustained during the battle, including Lucifer severing one of his wings from his body. After Forti could barely lift his sword, Lucifer left the head archangel to be corrupted so he could witness Satan corrupting Charlie. Lucifer had almost no reaction to Forti killing himself with Excalibur to prevent himself from being fully corrupted by Satan.

Fergus

During Lucifer's reign in Heaven, Fergus (then named Koatal) was one of Lucifer's most powerful and proud warriors. According to himself, Fergus, as captain of the guard, carried out all of Lucifer's orders, and frequently fought to defend Lucifer, Heaven, and its sovereignty from invaders. However, their relationship took a turn when Lucifer requested that Fergus aid him in conquering Heaven and the Universe to create a "better" world. Although Fergus was initially hesitant to betray his previous beliefs, Lucifer reminded Fergus of his son's recent death to emotionally manipulate him, telling the warrior angel that if he continued to serve God and fight for Heaven, he would follow his son's steps and die as well, along with his family and fellow soldiers. Convincing himself that Lucifer was right, Fergus and his family joined Lucifer's secret army, and, with extreme reluctance, he murdered Lucifer's brothers on the former's orders, and aided Lucifer in the War in Heaven, before being banished from Heaven by God alongside Lucifer and all who served him.

Following his banishment, Fergus was stripped of his angelic form and immense power, and although he remained loyal to Lucifer, even willing to die for the King of Hell, he slowly began to lose his master's favor, as Lucifer had seen more potential in other, more powerful demons, causing him to see Fergus as disposable without his angelic power. In a play to unburden himself with Fergus, Lucifer had the fallen warrior angel thrown into a death tournament which would decide the King of Hell's next highest-ranking subordinate. Lucifer had set Fergus up to die, although Fergus himself was unaware of this. Despite Lucifer essentially rigging the tournament, Fergus still won through sheer luck, which left Lucifer absolutely furious and feeling robbed of a potential, stronger lieutenant.

Two weeks after Fergus was crowned victor of the tournament, Lucifer had his underlings kidnap him to be brought to his castle, and brutally tortured him for a full month, going as far as to mutilate him by severing his left arm from his body, among many other acts of psychological torture. However, Lucifer ultimately decided not to kill his former guard as he merely wanted to instill a sense of great fear and loss in hope within him. Fergus was eventually freed, only to discover shortly afterward that Lucifer had his entire family killed and his home destroyed as vengeance for the stunt that he pulled with the axe and force field.

Over the course of a billion years later, Fergus fell into a deep state of depression, haunted by the death of his family as well as the atrocities he committed on Lucifer's orders. He suppressed his grief through alcoholism, coming at the cost of nearly all of his strength, leaving him significantly weaker than he was even after he fell from Heaven. He would also frequently suffer nightmares as a result of the extreme physical and psychological torture the King of Hell had put him through, developing a form of PTSD from his years with Lucifer. Fergus' fear and hatred of Lucifer were notable enough to where, when he saw the Magne family portrait of Lucifer with his family, he slowly broke down in anger and tears, and threatened Charlie to not say her father's name, and requested that she get rid of the portrait of herself with Lucifer and Lilith. Although he decided to join Charlie's team after being coerced by Alastor, his alcoholism and loss of hope prevented him from having the will and courage to personally confront the King of Hell.

In Chapter 3, Lucifer and Fergus finally encountered each other once more in Purgatory for the first time in thousands of years. Upon seeing Fergus again, the King of Hell seemed incredibly amused at the depressed state he had sent Fergus spiraling into, viewing it as the ultimate insult that Fergus had begun as a mighty warrior, only to wither away into a helpless drunkard. He took pleasure in torturing Fergus again by forcing him to relive the war in Heaven, allowed Vox to torture him, and brutally severed his right hand off when Fergus attempted to save Charlie from the King of Hell. When the two encountered each other again after the eight year timeskip, Lucifer mockingly referred to Fergus by his former name "Koatal", and forced him to watch helplessly as Charlie was nearly corrupted by Satan.

Vaggie

Vaggie is shown to hate Lucifer for his toxic influence over Charlie, actively encouraging her to cut her father out of her life. It is implied that Lucifer is unaware of the extent of Vaggie's relationship with Charlie, as the two dated without his knowledge, possibly out of fear that he would reject Vaggie for being a sinner. Humorously, it was revealed that Lucifer almost instantly saw through Vaggie's ruse and knew she was a fallen winner, and merely disliked Vaggie for her attempts to bring Charlie back to reality by reminding her that life isn't a musical, with Lucifer insisting that life is like a musical.

In "The Fallen Angel", Lucifer took Vaggie and her team as prisoners, and mused over murdering Vaggie by slitting her throat if Fergus continued to insult him, and relished in tormenting her along with her team while interrogating them. Later, Vaggie told Lucifer that he would never win as long as Charlie was far away from him, to which Lucifer mockingly responded that he was anticipating seeing Vaggie's hope turn to despair.

Death

The enmity between Death and Lucifer is widely acknowledged, rooted in Lucifer's aspiration to create a Universe devoid of death and his relentless self-obsession. Death holds a profound disdain for the King of Hell and has openly expressed a fervent desire to end Lucifer's life. However, the Grim Reaper's efforts are stymied by the fact that God ultimately determines when Lucifer will meet his demise.

Lucifer, fully aware of Death's impotence in this regard, takes every opportunity to taunt and mock the Grim Reaper. A telling example of this is a portrait prominently displayed in Lucifer's castle, depicting the King of Hell and Death shaking hands, both sporting malevolent smiles. This artwork serves as a sardonic reminder of Death's inability to carry out his desire to kill Lucifer, while Death himself is portrayed with a displeased expression, encapsulating the ongoing tension between these two formidable entities.

Beelzebub

Lucifer and Beelzebub share a mutual distrust and disdain for each other, a dynamic that appears to have been fueled by Beelzebub's resentment toward Lucifer after the latter was chosen as Satan's top servant over Beelzebub. This rivalry has simmered beneath the surface, but despite their differences, Lucifer has allowed Beelzebub to retain his position as the King of the Gluttony Ring.

Their history also includes instances of cooperation, particularly when they've conspired with the other Seven Deadly Sins. This indicates that, despite their strained relationship, they are capable of working together when their interests align.

During a meeting of the Seven Deadly Sins, Beelzebub made a mocking comment about Lucifer's relationship with Charlie, drawing the King of Hell's reprimand for his lack of respect. This incident highlights the tension between them and the potential for confrontations to arise from their longstanding rivalry and differing personalities.

Leviathan Von Eldritch

Lucifer and Leviathan where good acquaintances and long-time partners, with them both being founding members of the Seven Deadly Sins. Based on their interactions, Lucifer acts dismissive and casually condescending towards Leviathan, telling the King of Envy to his face that Charlie hated him and he was proud of her for that. Although Leviathan conspired to take Lucifer's throne behind his back and Lucifer revealed himself to be aware of this, the King of Hell made no attempt to stop Leviathan as he never expected him to succeed. Leviathan's son, Seviathan Von Eldritch, was a close childhood friend of Charlie, and was formerly in a romantic relationship with the princess while they were both attending Hell School, showing that Lucifer respects Leviathan and his family enough to allow the former's son to date Charlie.

Lucifer agreed with Leviathan that his son was a worthy suitor for Charlie.

However, after the death of Leviathan and his failed attempt to take over Hell, Lucifer showed a great fury and hate towards him, destroying the throne of Leviathan in his castle, and showed absolutely no sadness for his death or for his betrayal, despite the fact that he was one of his closest allies.

Blitzø

At some point after returning from Purgatory, Lucifer was made aware of I.M.P's numerous disruptions they had caused on Earth, including an incident where they were caught on security camera by a paranormal investigation organization known as D.H.O.R.K.S. Enraged at the attention they could have potentially brought to Hell, Lucifer intended to punish Blitzø and his crew to suffer for these disruptions, although he wanted their suffering to be prolonged. He sent Corey and Peel to capture I.M.P's leader, Blitzø, and offered to the imp that he would pardon I.M.P of all of their crimes so long as they killed the entire Happy Hotel crew (excluding Charlie). When Blitzø lied to Lucifer by saying that he had left I.M.P, the King of Hell threatened to have I.M.P thrown in prison, as well as have Stolas executed for the Goetic Prince's assistance of I.M.P's operation. In an act of pure spite as Blitzø had insulted Lucifer's wife, Lilith, the King of Hell decided to take things even further by threatening to have Stolas' daughter, Octavia, incarcerated in one of Hell's most violent prisons. Following Lucifer's threats to torture the other members of I.M.P, caused Blitzø to rush Lucifer with a knife in a blind rage, although Lucifer easily stopped Blitzø with one hand motion, allowing Corey and Peel to brutally assault the imp.

While Blitzø was enraged at Lucifer and knew that Lucifer had tasked I.M.P with such a dangerous mission in hopes that they would all die, he was given no choice in the matter and begrudgingly accepted the King of Hell's mission. Blitzø's suspicion that Lucifer's given task was a suicide mission in disguise was seemingly confirmed when the King of Hell brought together most of I.M.P's past enemies as part of the task force. Lucifer even enlisted Striker to watch other Blitzø to make sure he does not try to escape, knowing how much the two dislike each other. After briefing Blitzø and his crew on the mission, Lucifer forced the imp to sign a soul contract that would erase him from existence if he attempted to escape from the mission. During I.M.P's mission, the King of Hell made it clear that he had no compunctions over killing Blitzø or his crew should they run out in him.

Quotes Pertaining to Lucifer

Trivia

• Lucifer's character is based on the pop-culture version of the Devil, where he is typically portrayed as being the fallen-archangel, Lucifer, who attempted to conquer Heaven in a great war, before being defeated by the archangel Michael and cast down to Hell as his punishment, where he became its ruler and the primary adversary of God. In some versions and renditions, Lucifer is dubbed "Satan", one of the many names of the Devil.
  • Despite this, Lucifer and Satan are depicted as being separate characters in this series.
• Lucifer's first name translates to "shining one", "the morning star" (referring to Venus), or "light-bringer" in Hebrew.
  • His adopted surname "Magne", which is of French origins (derived from the Latin word "magnus"), translates to "The Great".
    • This means that his full name would mean "The Great Bringer of Light".
• His theme song would either be "The Greatest Show" from The Greatest Showman, or "This is The Life" by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
  • Lucifer and Lilith's theme song would either be "Come What May" from Moulin Rouge!, or "Queen Elizabeth" by Cheat Codes.
• Each Ringleader is themed after a particular circus performance; in Lucifer's case, he represents the ringmaster.
  • Each Ringleader is also themed after a particular genre of music, Lucifer's being Broadway-style musical theater and polka.
• His last name was originally "Morningstar" before his fall from Heaven. Upon taking over Hell, he changed his last name to "Magne" due to its meaning, and because "Morningstar" was the name God bestowed upon him.
• Lucifer's affinity towards apples and snakes is a reference to the story of Adam and Eve, where a talking snake (sometimes interpreted as being the Devil) persuades the first woman, Eve, into eating the forbidden fruit, which is often depicted in pop culture as an apple, resulting in her and Adam being thrown out of paradise.
  • Unlike the canon version of Lucifer, this interpretation of Lucifer is not responsible for the fall of mankind nor the temptation of Adam and Eve, as that deed is attributed to Roo instead (in fact, it was the very fall of mankind that led to Lucifer rebelling against God).
• The authors of the series agree that Lucifer is demisexual autosexual because Lilith is the only other person he would ever be attracted to (as well as the fact that she basically looks like a genderbent version of himself), and if she was out of the picture, he would only be attracted to himself.
• There are parallels between Lucifer and Lilith's relationship and Vaggie and Charlie's. Lucifer and Charlie are supernatural beings, whereas Lilith and Vaggie were Earth-born. Just as Charlie and Lucifer are the lighthearted and ambitious halves of the respective pairs, Lilith and Vaggie are the more composed and rational half. Lucifer befriended, inspired, and charmed Lilith at her darkest point, naturally using his charming and passionate personality to lift her up, much like what Charlie did to Vaggie. Lilith extended her support to Lucifer after his fall from Heaven, mirroring Charlie's role as the one who took Vaggie in during her supposed time of need.
• He is described by one of the series' authors as "the lovechild of Walt Disney, The Greatest Showman's P.T Barnum, Willy Wonka, and Caligula".
• In "Extermination Day: Part 1", it is revealed that Lucifer had not been defeated by God when he fell from Heaven, as he had claimed. Instead, it was Michael who had bested him in that momentous battle, and Lucifer had fabricated the story of God's victory to perpetuate the illusion of his incredible power, suggesting that only a being as mighty as God could have vanquished him.
• In Holy Hell, it is implied that Lucifer (as well as other male angels) lacks genitalia, based on his confused reaction to Adam's "danglehopper".
• Whenever Lucifer is upset, he retreats to his "playroom" and rides a carousel until he feels better.
• Lucifer is the only known entity who is immune to Death's fatal touch, as evidenced by the framed portrait of him shaking hands with Death simply to mock the Grim Reaper over his inability to kill him.
• He owns his own brand of apple cider which he makes from an orchard he owns.
• His theme park, Lu Lu World, is a clear parody of Disney World.
• While criticizing sinners for being "ungrateful", Lucifer implies the reason he doesn't have a nose is because he lost it the one time he decided to look a gift horse in the mouth.
• It is implied that Lucifer suffers from a Napoleon Complex, and goes to somewhat ridiculous means to compensate for his rather short stature, from living in an extremely large and luxurious castle, having massive statues of him spread across Hell, and standing his servants' backs while posing for portraits to appear taller.
  • Despite this, Lucifer is not actually that short from a human point of view. He is around 5'9, being only inches shorter than Charlie, though he appears smaller in Hell as most demons naturally tower over angels.
• Lucifer never actually refers to himself as Hell's king, but rather its "ringleader", because he sees Hell as a big circus rather than a kingdom.
• Lucifer is the only known seraph angel whose name does not start with "Ser".
• As seen on Loona's Sinstagram account, there is a documentary about Lucifer's life simply titled Lucifer that is available to stream on Voxflix.
• It is strongly implied that Lucifer has compulsive hoarding disorder, due to his habit of hoarding and surrounding himself with an excessive number of things that bring him joy.
  • He also develops depression in Chapter 5, as shown by him giving up on all his goals and not even Lu Lu World or watching his circus troupe bringing him much joy.
• There is a service in Hell named after Lucifer known as Lucimaster, though it is unclear if Lucifer owns the app or if it was simply made in his name.
• Many of Lucifer's sudden movements are accompanied by the sounds of a snake-like hissing noise.
• Lucifer's obsession with rubber ducks might be a reference to the song "I Want a New Duck" by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
• Despite his deep-seated disdain for Christmas due to its religious significance and association with God and Jesus Christ, Lucifer exhibits a penchant for irony and mischief; He is willing to don a Santa hat, seeing it as a symbol of the commercialization and secularization of a holiday that holds profound religious meaning.
• In the darkly comedic song "Fall of the Morningstar", it is claimed by various sinners that Lucifer often forces families to watch the executions of their loved ones, and to make this worse, he’d force the relatives of the victims to smile and cheer over the execution before they themselves would also be executed. He also regularly holds parties and gatherings of a joyous nature to watch people be brutally murdered, and invites their grieving loved ones to join in the festivities, forced to act like they are having a good time. It is unknown if these stories are true, or merely the sinners of Hell telling hilariously exaggerated stories to make Lucifer seem as fearsome and vile as possible.
• Lucifer is very prideful of the fact that pride is the only sin that has its own month, and loves bragging about it to the other Sins.
• Lucifer displayed some form of all the Seven Deadly Sins:
  • Pride: Aside from believing himself to be deserving of absolute power, he was incredibly vain, constantly remarking on his beauty and power, put his own wants and desires over the welfare of others, repeatedly refused to admit his flaws and blamed them on others, viewing himself as completely flawless. He even had an entire ring of Hell made in his name and image to showcase his "greatness".
    • However, he does, to a small degree, eventually let go of his hubris, putting all of his pride into Charlie being his daughter.
  • Envy: He was envious of humanity for how much God and the angels loved them despite their sins, which was the entire reason behind him starting a war with Heaven itself. He also shows a level of possessiveness towards Lilith, displaying jealousy and murderous rage towards anyone who even gets near her.
  • Gluttony: He is frequently seen eating food of some kind (eating buckets of candy corn, drinking apple cider, eating apples, etc.) while letting many of Hell's poor and needy denizens (such as the imp population) rot in poverty without lifting a finger to help them. Gluttony can also be applied to Lucifer if one interprets Gluttony as selfishness, which he is guilty of in abundance.
  • Lust: He is outright obsessed with Lilith and regularly engages in extremely disturbing, sadomasoch*stic sexual activities with her on an almost daily basis.
  • Wrath: He is motivated by his hatred of sinners, throws childish and violet temper tantrums when things don't go his way, and held a desire to punish and destroy anyone who displeased or disrespected him in any perceived way.
  • Greed: He is very materialistic as he loves hoarding overly expensive things he does not need and hoarding them in his massive playroom, such as rollercoasters, carousels, and expensive, old cars.
  • Sloth: He is very indolent as the King of Hell and is overall a terrible ruler, staying in either his castle or Lu Lu World and keeping himself entertained, since he believes that Hell can run itself. His lack of initiative to better himself and constant blaming of others for his own shortcomings can also be seen as a form of Sloth.
• As shown by a plaque in The Circus, Lucifer has a set of "sins" that are considered to be the worst "sins" one can commit in Hell, and are punishable by immediate torture and/or death. They include:
  • Mentioning God's name in Lucifer's presence.
  • Wearing socks with sandals.
  • Not responding to text messages.
  • Disobeying an order from the Magne family.
  • Eating all the food and putting the box back into the cabinet.
  • Putting discs in the wrong cases.
