Character Notes: History: Lucifer has a history as long as time itself. Luckily, I can condense about 50 billion years of it into about three sentences.
Here we go.
Lucifer and Michael were bros and made the universe by God's will, but Lucifer didn't like the shit going down in Heaven, meaning nothing. So he rebelled against God, and his bro had to smite him, and Lucifer fell into Hell. So Lucifer rulled over Hell for the rest of time for his punishment, and shit was pretty cash, actually.
That was easy enough. Now let's get to what happens in the series. So we start off with The Sandman.
Morpheus is the personification of Dream, one of The Endless. However, he was imprisoned by a mortal, and lived for about one hundred years as his kingdom decayed in his absence. Three precious sources of power were also taken from him. One he escaped his prison, he sought to reclaim them. One of his items, his "crown" (which is a really fugly thing) fell in the hands of one of the lesser demons of Hell. Of course, entering Hell uninvited was treading into Lucifer's domain, so Morpheus approached it carefully. However, Lucifer humored the Lord of Dreams, and allowed the lesser demons and Morpheus to engage in a verbal duel. Morpheus won, naturally, but he also manages to piss off all of Hell before he leaves. Lucifer vows to kill him because oh fuck no you do not humiliate Lucifer.
However, in one of the oddest acts of irony, Morpheus decides to return to Hell not long after. After being scorned by his siblings for banishing a woman to hell for 10,000 years because she would not become his Queen (bitter much?), his siblings convinced him that this was over-reacting. As such, he decided to return to Hell so that he could free his old lover, Nada. However, when he arrives, Lucifer comes to meet him, telling him that he quit. For real. They talk as Lucifer locks up Hell before they leave, since he had already banished the demons and souls there elsewhere, and their conversation ends with an exchange. Lucifer gives Morpheus the key to Hell, and thus the lordship over it, and Morpheus does Lucifer a favor by cutting off his wings.
Morpheus eventually met with many Gods and spirits seeking the ownership of Hell, but eventually, God himself intervened and it was a pair of angels that took over Hell. Duma, the angel of silence, and Remiel, who is set over those who rise, took over Hell, much to Remiel's chagrin. Lucifer, however, went to Perth, Australia for a while, and admitted that sunsets were pretty cool, yeah. After that, he moved to Los Angeles and started a bar, Lux, which he plays the piano at and owns.
At this point, we dive into the series of Lucifer, and the plot lines are a little complicated, so bear with me as I introduce the key players.
One of the most important people to Lucifer, in a way, is Mazikeen, who is of a race descended from Lilith. She helps him out a lot, and is important later. There's also Jill Presto, a cabaret worker. Jill is possessed by the Basanos, who are a living tarot deck. Elaine Belloc is the son of Michael, through nothing less than crazy magic, so she's an Archangel.
Lucifer goes to the Basanos for a Tarot reading, first off, introducing them and Jill, who are more important later. After this, Lucifer decides that he wants his wings back, so he goes to the Realm of the Windowless Rooms, which is the realm of the Japanese Gods. Because of their power, the Japanese Gods are reluctant to give them back, so they plan to assassinate him. Of course, that doesn't work at all. He eventually gets them back, of course, and they're no longer demonic! Yay for him.
this is long btw
