Lucifer White Biography & Facts

Lucifer Morningstar, known as Samael before his banishment from Heaven, is the titular protagonist of the urban fantasy comedy-drama series Lucifer (2016–2021). The character is portrayed by Welsh actor Tom Ellis and is an alternate version of Lucifer Morningstar, one of the supporting characters of Neil Gaiman's comic book series The Sandman, published by DC Comics; both are based on the Devil from Christianity. The series follows Lucifer after he abandons his post as the ruler of Hell and arrives on Earth, where he settles in Los Angeles to run a nightclub with the demon Mazikeen; he later becomes a civilian consultant for the LAPD, leading him to meet his soulmate, detective Chloe Decker. The character was adapted for television by Joe Henderson as the showrunner for a series based on the Sandman character Lucifer, with Ellis cast in the title role in February 2015. Ellis' performance has been praised by critics and the character has become a fan favorite. He reprised his role as Lucifer in the 2020 Arrowverse crossover event Crisis on Infinite Earths, which established that Lucifer takes place on "Earth-666" in an alternate universe within the wider multiverse. Characterization Overview Samael is a fallen archangel who was banished from Heaven after attempting a failed rebellion against his father, being sent to Hell as its new ruler and later changing his name to Lucifer. He holds a deep resentment towards his father for banishing him, as well as his mother for doing nothing to stop it. In 2011, Lucifer becomes bored with his life in Hell, so he abdicates his throne and travels to Los Angeles to run his own high-end nightclub called Lux. At one point, John Constantine assists him in retrieving the demon Mazikeen from Hell so she can continue serving as his bodyguard; he would later repay this debt by helping Constantine recover Oliver Queen's soul from Purgatory. In 2016, while still running Lux, Lucifer becomes a civilian consultant for the LAPD and meets detective Chloe Decker. Personality Lucifer never lies and is therefore always honest about his identity as the Devil, though very few humans take his claims seriously and instead view him as a wealthy eccentric. He convinces them by showing them his true demonic appearance, which he nicknames his "Devil face". Knowing that the sight of his true face can instantly send humans insane, he usually hides it unless aiming to frighten evildoers as he does not want to risk harming those he cares about. He is a heavy drinker, smoker, and drug user, none of which have any negative effects on him because he is not human. He is extremely sexually active and pansexual, with his celestial nature making him irresistible to almost all humans for reasons they cannot explain; he has had sex with billions of humans, all of whom cite him as the greatest they have had. Lucifer has visited Earth various times throughout the course of human history, with his brother Amenadiel always coming to take him back to Hell. With the ability to shapeshift, Lucifer tried many different human appearances and voices during his visits; however, upon discovering that it was much easier to charm humans when he appeared as a suave and well-dressed Englishman in his 30s, he settled on this persona permanently. His human form is tall and athletic with a slim build, olive skin, well-groomed black hair and sideburns, and light stubble. By the fourth season, he gained some muscle and grew his facial hair slightly longer. He is always dressed in one of his many bespoke three-piece suits, often experimenting with the colour scheme, though his signature suit is black with a white shirt and red pocket square. He has sported many different shoes, most notably black Louboutins with the trademark red sole and black Chelsea boots. He drives a black 1962 Chevrolet Corvette with the custom license plate "FALL1N1". Abilities As an angel, Lucifer possesses several supernatural traits and abilities. He can make humans tell him their secret aspirations by looking into their eyes and simply asking them what they "truly desire", a power he nicknames his "mojo". Despite some humans believing this is hypnosis or telepathy, it is neither, and is dependent upon whether the target is a "simple" or "complex" person as a more complex person will take more time and effort before giving in. Chloe is the only human immune to both Lucifer's charm and mojo, and even accidentally steals his ability for a brief time when they become a couple. Lucifer can speak every human language, but cannot read all of them. He is a skilled singer and pianist who is often seen performing for guests at Lux, and has displayed his skills as a dancer and bassist. However, his artistic abilities are not universal; for example, he cannot draw or sketch anything more detailed than crude stick figures. Lucifer possesses superhuman strength, able to easily throw adult men long distances or lift them several feet in the air by the neck with one hand, even if they are much larger than himself. He can also punch through brick walls and hold an accelerating car still, though he must be adequately braced for the latter. He is immortal and cannot feel pain, rendering bullets and fire useless against him. He can be shot to death, but will simply jolt awake a few moments later with no sign of physical damage. However, he can be injured by Mazikeen's karambits, which were forged in Hell and can harm any celestial being. He is also, like all other celestial beings, vulnerable to his sister Azrael's blade (the main part of the legendary Flaming Sword) as she is the angel of death. Lucifer originally had a pair of angelic wings, which he instructed Maze to cut off with her karambits some time after he arrived in Los Angeles, leaving him with permanent scars on his back. Due to angels being able to literally self-actualize, his wings grow back at the end of the second season as he starts to experience emotional growth. By the end of the fourth season, his realization that he hates himself causes his wings to revert to a demonic bat-like appearance, and they later regain their angelic look when Chloe finally convinces him that she loves him for who he is. The wings are as durable as his body, being able to resist damage such as gunfire, and can generate a gust strong enough to knock a human over when flapped. Lucifer's principal weakness is that his invulnerability fails whenever Chloe is in his immediate vicinity, though it is not known exactly how close she needs to be for this to happen. If he is mortally injured when Chloe is nearby, he can die like a human. This effect renders him susceptible to even the most minor injuries, such as cutting his hand or stubbing his toe. As soon as Chloe is far enough away from him, his body again becomes impervious to damage and he instantly recovers from non-fatal injuries. He remained invulnerable near Chloe during their initial time together, and his weakness manifested .... Discover the Lucifer White popular books. Find the top 100 most popular Lucifer White books.
