“ | What a pointless thing you've done... Those who know my research... Will carry on my legacy... | „ |
~ Lucilius to Lucifer, upon being decapitated for his crimes in the Fallen Angel Rebellion |

“ | You'd put this world's corrupted fate back on its rails, not knowing or caring where they lead. There is no destination. No "happy end". All that awaits is chaos - life's eternal battlefield... Is that truly what you want? | „ |
~ Lucilius to the Singularities, doubting and questioning their motives |

“ | I had hoped you'd see reason and accept the inevitable. But it seems all you understand is violence. The laws of nature, the oppression of causality... While these fetters exist, we will never be free. | „ |
~ Lucilius to the Singularities, who chose to fight despite the overwhelming odds |

“ | Why struggle to stay afloat on the waves, poised on uncertainty? Why be a jester in someone else's play? Why let the gods have the last laugh? Why live in a cage? ...This world was made to rot - to fall into strife. If you wish to deter conflict, the answer is simple: end everything... True peace is to be found in the silent depths. |

Summary
Lucilius is the main antagonist of the What Makes the Sky Blue storyline in the Granblue Fantasy browser game, the main antagonist of Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising fighting game storyline, and an optional endgame superboss in the Granblue Fantasy Relink action RPG. Lucilius was an Astral that used to be the head researcher in the Astral Realm society, and is an originally inferior clone created by the Astral God from the template of Helel ben Sahar — the Speaker of Dawn, to be one of many Astrals to populate her Realm. His unequivocal genius and transcendent will led to many breakthroughs that would shake up the world, most notably his invention and creation of the original Primal Beasts — the Angels. But as his research into evolution progressed, he drew his own conclusions about the Gods' designs and planned the Fallen Angel Rebellion to bring about his Grand Finale — a plan intended to end the world. Though rarely moved by emotion, he harbors a centuries-old hatred for the gods, seeing them as tyrants who imposed order on the boundless universe. For him, there is only one state of true freedom — nothingness.
Lucilius' initial plan during the Fallen Angel Rebellion two thousand years ago was thwarted by his own magnum opus creation — the Supreme Primarch Lucifer, created in his own image and granted complete free will, who 'betrayed' and decapitated his creator. However, this wasn't enough to rid the world of Lucilius, as he was Revived through the help of his adjutant Belial — the Archangel of Cunning and a Fallen Angel, by exploiting Beelzebub's foolishness when the Astral murdered Lucifer with a sneak attack. By Belial's cunning manipulations, Lucilius was revived by having his decapitated head grafted onto the dead body of Lucifer, sheathing "history's greatest intellect" in the "strongest possible vessel" and thus establishing Lucilius as a proper antithesis to his original, and from there — an existential threat to all of creation.

Attack Potency: Multi-Solar System level (should be comparable to the Primal Beasts[Statistics Values 1] and Archangels, which he can control and create as an Astral) | Complex Multiverse level (Caused Etemenanki to fall and cease functioning[13], along with gravely injuring Beelzebub with Avatar's Power in a single strike using his Sword of Repudiation[47])[Statistics Values 2] | Complex Multiverse level (with the power of the Twelve Wings of the Apocalypse, he should possess the Speaker Helel ben Sahar’s power and authority over the Sky Realm and Astral Realm. Lucilius damaged Etemenanki with the aftershocks of his attacks during his clash with Sandalphon and Captain)[Statistics Values 2], likely higher in Zero form.
Speed: Massively FTL+ (should be comparable to Beelzebub, one of the highest-ranking Astrals and a powerful Astral Primal Beast Chimera, who should be faster than Europa) | Massively FTL+ (blitzed and severely injured Beelzebub with Iscariot, while also keeping up with attacks from both Captains and Sandalphon) | Massively FTL+pre-Phoenix (blitzed Primarch Wings Sandalphon and reacted to his sudden attack[47] and own usage of Paradise Lost with ease[48]), likely Immeasurablepost-Phoenix (is likely to have successfully analyzed and emulated Phoenix's method of movement, after being given an opportunity to do so when it flew past him[49]), possibly higher in Zero form.
Lifting Strength: Superhuman (should be at least as capable as the mortal Draph race, who can lift large monsters with ease) | Immeasurable (nullified Etemenanki’s buoyancy using his powers) | Immeasurable (lifted and swung the Sword of Repudiation, which is an object created entirely through Astral energy, and effortlessly skewered Beelzebub up in the air with a single arm wielding the sword).

Durability: Multi-Solar System level | Complex Multiverse level (withstood hits from Captain without serious injury)[Statistics Values 2] | Complex Multiverse level (Twelve Black Wings trivialized[50] Primarch Wings Sandalphon's attacks without effort, endured two simultaneous Reginleiv attacks from both Captains without serious injury, and shrugged off Sandalphon's Ain Soph Aur attack)[Statistics Values 2], higher with unique buffs and likely higher in Zero form.
Stamina: Superhuman as an Astral, likely Infinite after being revived with Lucifer's body.
Range: Several Meters with the Dark Opus swords' melee strikes, Thousands of Kilometers with magical projectiles and sword beams, Planetary with Paradise Lost, Complex Multiversal with The End and the Speaker's power of Law Manipulation.
Standard Equipment: The Dark Opus weapon series, mainly a set of three swords to make proper use of Lucifer's own established combat style.
Intelligence: Supergenius (as an Astral Researcher who studied the evolution of the Sky Realm and concluded that it would achieve homeostasis only to serve God's convenience. He created the first original Primal Beasts, leading to the development of more Primal Beasts by other Astrals — entities that became the Astrals' most powerful weapons against the Skydwellers. These primal beasts are higher-dimensional beings that govern and regulate the laws and aspects of reality in the Sky Realm, embodying concepts, myths, and gods, given form by the Astrals. The first of the Primal Beasts were the Angels and Primarchs, tasked with regulating the Tetra-Elements, which is an essential framework for the Sky Realm's stable existence in substitution of the Six Dragons. Furthermore, Lucilius gained knowledge of and understood the properties of the chaos in the Crimson Horizon — an area beyond the reach of direct study by other Astral researchers, who could only theorize about its properties for academic purposes. Lucilius later orchestrated the Fallen Angel Rebellion to quickly amass cores from his own Primal Beasts, which would then planned to be used to create Avatar for the purpose of enacting the Grand Finale. Despite being thwarted, Lucilius had prepared countless contingencies and alternate avenues to fulfilling the Grand Finale, as the leftovers from his legacy were then used by him again to try and sink Etemenanki, the full capabilities and inner workings of which were unknown even to the Astrals, to break the dimensional boundary and unleash world-rending chaos into the Sky Realm.)
Weaknesses: He grows weaker if his Twelve Black Wings are damaged, as they are a direct representation and emanation of his power as is standard in the design of Angel-type Primal Beasts. This will not completely shut him down, but may prevent him from using certain abilities that rely on the reserve energy stored in his wings, however he hasn't demonstrated this weakness in his Zero form. Additionally, his Twelve Labors invoked through Seven Trumpets and Gospel of the End, along with certain other abilities, can be dispelled by fulfilling their specific cancel conditions.
- Created the original Primal Beast Lucifer, along with the elemental Primarchs who became the Sky Realm's wedges. He spearheaded the research into Primal Beast mass-production for Astral society, becoming the founding father of the Primal Beast field of science and creating some of the strongest beings in his world;
- Survived for 2000 years as nothing more than a decapitated head in a casket, owing to his Astral deathlessness, but is implied to have been caught in a state between consciousness and unconsciousness (possibly self-imposed) where a 'mundane wake-up call' would be sufficient to wake him;
- Nearly killed his rival and fellow Astral Primal Beast Chimera, Beelzebub, by blitzing and backstabbing him with his Iscariot attack, piercing even Beelzebub's flesh with the Sword of Renunciation—whereas even Cagliostro had to resort to sealing him due to a lack of firepower;
- Damaged and nearly brought down Etemenanki before being stopped and dimensionally banished by the combined efforts of Sandalphon, Helel ben Sahar, and Captain. Had he succeeded, he would have destroyed the entire world Granblue Fantasy irreparably;
- Overpowered and consumed Helel ben Sahar, the Speaker of Dawn and the Omnipotent's right-hand man, in single combat without sustaining serious injury in his Revived form. While the Speaker is implied to have possibly jobbed to guarantee a win for the crew later, it is also suggested that he was not strong enough to defeat Lucilius alone, else he would've done so from the beginning;
- Completely destroyed and sank the floating islands of Port Breeze, as well as Zinkenstill, with a single cast of his Paradise Lost attack;
- Was able to reset the causality of Nier through Point Zero and brainwashed her using memories taken from an alternate timeline;
- Independently created a large isolated realm dubbed Point Zero, where he replicated the structure of Etemenanki. Within this realm, he can shape Chaos and Providence to his will, resisting direct divine intervention from the Gods. In this place, he planned to kill both Captains who had thus far eluded death due to consistent divine intervention;
- Near the end of the Versus Rising storyline, Lucilius is considered such a massive threat to the world that the Sky God Bahamut broke his non-interventionist stance by sending his avatar, Versusia, in an attempt to eliminate Lucilius terminator-style in a roundabout way so that Lucilius couldn't predict and eliminate this possibility.
