“	Why do they blame me for all their little failings? They use my name as if I spent my entire days sitting on their shoulders, forcing them to commit acts they would otherwise find repulsive. 'The devil made me do it.' I have never made one of them do anything. Never. They live their own tiny lives. I do not live their lives for them.	„

Summary

Lucifer Morningstar is a fallen rebel archangel who was cast out of Heaven and onto Earth as punishment for leading the revolt of the angels. He's the twin brother of Michael Demiurgos and the uncle of Elaine Belloc.

Before the DC Verse was created, in the void outside all creations that is the Primal Monitor, Yahweh created two brothers infused with literally unlimited might, Michael Demiurgos and Samael, later called Lucifer Morningstar. After both were formed, Yahweh guided them, instructed them as to how to use their powers, and then they formed the creation we all know as the DC Multiverse.

Eons ago, Lucifer Morningstar rebelled against the Kingdom of Heaven and was cast into a shapeless void known as the Chaoplasm. The Chaoplasm was transformed into a desolate and barren expanse known by many as Hell, the final destination for damned souls. Here Morningstar ruled, awaiting the day he could be freed.

His goal is to have "true free will": break from the influence of his father and creator, Yahweh.

Attack Potency: High Outerverse level (As the son of God, Lucifer and Michael are stated to possess power that could rival their Father.When the WORD dissipated, and creation fell into chaos, Lucifer stated that, had it not been for the extraneous circumstances portrayed in Destiny's book, Michael would have been able to take up the seat of God. Lucifer should naturally be capable of the same. Time and Space are extensions of the mind and will, which he embodies as he's divine will that shapes creation. Was stated to be more powerful than Dream of the Endless. Escaped his function and went outside of the Presence's plan. Destroyed Logos with a touch. Logos is the first word which sung all of existence into being)

Lifting Strength: Immeasurable

Striking Strength: High Outerverse level

Durability: High Outerverse level

Stamina: Infinite

Range: High Outerversal

Standard Equipment: The Sword of Azazel

Intelligence: Extraordinary Genius (Lucifer's intellect makes him a formidable adversary, allowing him to be 10 steps ahead of others. While powerless in The House of Windowless Rooms he was able to manipulate the many gods in the realm who attacked him and drive them to their own deaths, his prescient knowledge is to the extent that he even knows how minor events in the present will effect the future) | Nigh-Omniscient

Weaknesses: Lucifer is prideful and narcissistic; he always keeps his word and will never lie as he considers it to be degrading and below him. As experience is everything to him, Lucifer will not turn back time to correct every mistake and he sometimes likes to see how everything plays out (for example, he surrendered to Etrigan the demon because of this rather than destroy all opposition). Without his feathers, he is greatly weakened and he cannot create matter out of nothing, as he needs the Demiurgic force of his brother Michael, and later his niece Elaine.
