Appearance
Due to his immortality, Lucifer retains the appearance he had when he awakened at the age of 19. He has quite elegant features and a fair complexion with narrow, almond-shaped eyes that gives away his Chinese heritage. His hair is a jet black color and is cut into a short and messy, yet stylish look. His long bangs fall into his dark brown eyes that almost seem black at times.

At 5'9", Lucy is not particularly tall, but his long, slender limbs and form provides the illusion that he is taller than you would think. He is also quite conscious about his appearance and goes to great lengths to maintain a proper look. His usual attire consists of white dress shirt with black dress pants and a matching black blazer. At times, he is known to wear a tie. For outerwear, he has a black trenchcoat that he is rarely seen without.

Personality
Having been alive for as long as he has, one would likely think that Lucifer had distanced himself from the rest of humanity. That could not be more wrong. Lucifer quite enjoys keeping up with society and new technologies. In fact, he has had a hand in developing more than one of these. He is, almost surprisingly, social and maintains connections to several people, despite him having to sever these on occasion in order to keep his immortality secret.

While he is not too keen on revealing his identity, he does not hide the fact that he is one of the demons to any other immortal. His fondness of trickery and games also lead him to using aliases that, when one thinks about it, makes it quite obvious who he is. His most used alias to this date is Morningstar, which just goes to show the extend of his pride.

Although he is social and outgoing, Lucy tends to maintain an almost professional distance to others, both humans and immortals. While he has been in relationships in the past, even been married a couple of times, he always outlives his partners. This has led him to avoid getting too close to others in case he might develop feelings for them.

Soul Power:
Alteration of Perception
Not to be confused with actual illusions, Lucifer is capable of manipulating the minds of those in closest proximity to him (about 10 metres) into seeing what he wants them to see. It is a useful tool for when humans begin to realize he isn't quite an ordinary human or other immortals, who have learned of his true identity. However, if the target of this ability has beliefs that go against what Lucifer wants them to percieve, the ability will fail.

Personal Power:
Celestial Divining
Lucifer's power of divining makes him able to predict future events by reading the stars. His predictions are not always accurate as they can be interpreted in a multitude of ways and they rarely include specific details. In order to use his ability, he must either be able to physically see the stars or have access to the star charts he has drawn over time

Aura:
Negatively Aspected Aura
Lucifer's aura takes has the appearance of dark purple mist taking the shape of what appears to be vines. His aura has a maximum reach of 5 metres when using the maximum of 4 vines, and up to 20 metres when using only 1. The negative aspect of his aura allows him to drain his immortal opponents of their physical and mental strength when they are caught by his aura.

Background
Lucifer was born around 300 BC in eastern China to an upper class family under the birthname of Jiao Chenxing. He received excellent tuition and already at a young age showed great understanding in reading the movements of celestial objects. His skills eventually earned him the attention of the royal family and he was taken to the capital at age 11 to serve the Emperor himself. As he reached his teen years, he began to realize that he was not quite an ordinary person. His powers began to manifest and it became increasingly difficult to keep it hidden, especially with his aura revealing itself at inappropriate times.

At 19, he fully awakened to his state as an immortal and with that came the knowledge of what he was. With the resources of the royal family at his disposal, he began to search for others like him, eventually discovering that there indeed appeared to be other immortals out there. But eventually he became aware that he could not keep his immortal state hidden for much longer. Around the royal palace, rumors were spreading that he was not human, not having aged in the past 10 years. And so, he faked his death.

Decades later, a small group of immortals had established a village for their kind as far away from humans as they could. Chenxing was among them. As the centuries passed, common people had made a living nearby and the two groups eventually became dependant on one another for protection. What happened to that village over time is something that is now lost to history.

What happened in the many, many years after, Lucifer claims is a blur. He lived through wars, the falls of kingdoms and entire countries and natural disasters that shaped the land. He kept in contact with other immortals, being present when the split between the two factions - immortals with positively aspected souls and those with negatively aspected souls - occured, which also happened to coincide with monotheistic religions spreading. With the immortals now taking names upon their immortal souls, he chose to do the same, taking a name with the same meaning as his own. Chenxing. Morning Star. Lucifer.

Most recently, Lucifer has settled down in America, owning a small shop called "Chenxing's Oddities of the Occult" where he deals in both occult objects and similarly odd services, located in downtown Manhattan. It is also a place where both angels and demons know to come for aid in desperate hours.
