» PLAY-BY: Cillian Murphy
» HAIR COLOR AND STYLE: Lucien's hair is a dark brown, it's usually kept around shoulder length and slightly disheveled, but sometimes he keeps it at a cleaner cut.
» EYE COLOR: A clear, piercing blue that alternates between darker shades of blue and grey, and then to a complete black abyss when anger overrides his good nature.
» HEIGHT AND BODY TYPE: Lucien is about your average height for any man, five foot eleven inches, give or take. He isn't overly skinny, but he surely doesn't look very muscular, either. Lucien is about your average body weight, 165lbs, give or take, not muscular, but slightly toned. His appearance and actual physical strength are quite deceiving.
» MARKS: Lucien is clean of any tattoos or piercings, but has his collection of battle scars. His most noticeable being the deep scar which runs from the front of his knee to his calf, this was acquired during a misunderstanding with a werewolf.
» STYLE: Lucien's not a very colourful person, most likely you will only find his in shades (black, white, grey), if you're lucky enough to spot him in colour, it's not going to be anything elaborate. He likes to stick close to neutral colours such as navys, beiges and maybe a darker shade of red. He likes to stick with casual wear, blue jeans and a tee-shirt, maybe a sweater thrown in there too. He isn't one for any accessories, such as scarves of fancy dress jackets, he likes to stick with easy, non-attention drawing clothing.

» LIKES: Dark/crude humor, loud music, cooler temperatures, cigarettes, alcohol, solitude, night.
» DISLIKES: His genetic defect (being a demon), feeding off humans, loud teenage girls, extremely hot summer days, social gatherings, parties, hard drugs.
» STRENGTHS: Ability to quickly assess a situation, easily reads people, physical strength and speed, ability to see in the dark, materializing and dematerializing.
» WEAKNESSES: Social skills, can't maintain a serious or civil conversation for long, unable to express himself correctly, he is very withdrawn, often starves himself to insanity because he can't bring himself to feed from humans.
» HABITS: Smoking, chewing his lip/nails.
» GOALS: To obtain a healthy friendship, develop his social skills.
» FEARS: His dreaded future (always having to be a demon), fire.
» OVERALL PERSONALITY: Lucien is a very quiet, self-kept person. Being a demon, he is quite cynical in nature, and enjoys a good crude joke. Although he is a demon, and he has been gifted with super-human strength and speed, and other nifty tricks up his sleeves, Lucien hates his genetics and hates what he is. He wishes he had never been born into this Hell; literally. Sure, he thinks his fancy tricks of materializing and dematerializing is awesome and comes in handy sometimes, but he hates the fact that because of his heritage he must feed off human blood. He may be cynical and rude in nature, but he hates having to actually preform such obscene acts on innocent people.
His parents never bothered much to teach him any social skills, he had always been somewhat of a loner. He was raised using no manners, and isn't one for flattery. He sees most people as cold and distant, and never wants to waist any time on them, thinking it will just end in misery, as his relationship with his parents did. If Lucien ever manages to keep a civil conversation going for over a few sentences, he usually plays the role of listener, not being one to easily trust people and reveal his secrets and emotions to someone he doesn't know closely. Lucien is a very awkward soul. He cannot express his feelings or thoughts without a clear amount of difficulty, but when he does, you must know it is one hundred percent honest.
Lucien has never felt what it is like to love somebody, after his parents he felt as though that emotion would be stripped from him forever. What he clearly doesn't know, is that when he becomes attached to someone, he becomes very possessive of them, and very protective. He would do everything in his power to make sure of their safety, and he wouldn't hesitate to do something terribly foolish in order to make sure nothing ever happened to them. They would become the only thing he ever thought about, and if something were to happen between them, being a demon, his anger would flare to inhuman and he would be out of his own control. Lucien normally does not fall into these extreme bouts of anger, but with someone that he actually allowed to get close to him, and then did something to betray him, he wouldn't know how to react, and his only instinct would be pure anger.

» OVERALL HISTORY: Lucien was born a normal child, while in his infant years, he was well cared for, obsessed over, much like any new excited parents would be; but as he got older, and the demonic genetics passed down to him from his parents became more present, they soon grew much colder toward him. Sure, they still included him in outings and remembered his birthday, but they had grown suddenly withdrawn and cold to him. Lucien was too young to realize that this was not his own fault, his parents did indeed love him, but they had their own problems that were drawing them away from him. Lucien's mother, Julia, had been having an affair with a human man, which had caused her to draw away from Lucien emotionally because of the guilt she was experiencing.
Not too long after Lucien's 4th birthday, his father, Herald, became aware of the affair between his wife and the human man. Needless to say, Herald was furious, and being a demon, the emotion was twice as bad as it would be with any human. His parents fought for the next year, and it was only then did Julia confess that she and the human had indeed conceived a child together. She was four months pregnant at the time, and couldn't bear to tell Lucien that he would have a baby brother or sister, due to her guilt and grief. She didn't want a half demon, half human baby; the thought was preposterous to her.
Herald threatened Lucien's mother from their home, and she was never seen from again, and the baby was never mentioned to Lucien until he reached the sweet age of fifteen. Lucien had never questioned his mother's absence until that age, and when he found out what happened to her, he regretted ever asking the damned question. His father had tracked his mother down a year after, after the baby had been born - it was a sister, he found out - and decided the only punishment fair of what she had done to him was death. Lucien's father murdered his mother, and abandoned his baby sister on some humans doorstep. Herald wanted nothing to do with it, and he had never wanted Lucien to find out about it, and with good reason. Once Lucien was told the terrible tale of his mother, he fled his father's home, in fear that he might feel the need to repay the deed. Being a demon definitely had it's downfalls when it came to temper and thinking straight.
Since the age of fifteen, when Lucien found out about his mother's death, and his long lost sister, he had been traveling, trying to find her. Without even a name to be searching for, Lucien, of course, had no success in finding his long lost sister. To this day he feels responsible for her, and he will never stop traveling, in some glimmer of hope, that she will actually show up, and he can try to help her in any way he can. He has to make sure she's safe, and he wants to know what it will be like to feel an emotion that is not something dark and cruel, which is almost consuming in his demonic nature.

» ROLEPLAY SAMPLE:Scarlett's gift was a strong one, and only once before had she ever had it fail, but at her second try, she managed to prevail. The only one that had been able to escape her goft the first time was John Rhodes, her present lover. The only reason she had failed in her task was becuase he too, was a gifted vampire, and his ability was the power to see right through people's lies. This, had definitely turned him away from Scarlett, seeing as she was one for lying, on desperate occasions. She didn't lie often, but she would if it was needed. But, as usual, John's gift intruiged her and her lust for him only grew and grew over the passing days. So, being the power thirsty person she was, Scarlett managed a second encounter. Upon this, she was truthful with him, and she won him over. His power to deny her gift was what really made her love him. It was more a relationship of intruige and lust than anything else. In her eyes, anyways.
It's not like she chose her gift in the first place, people can't just choose if they want a magical power, or else the words would be an impossible place. As a human, Scarlett had been born with a strong will power over everyone. She almost always got her way, even if it didn't resort to begging, although that always helped. She had just been born a good manipulator, good at getting what she wanted. She had always been rather attractive, and her voice had always been addictive and almost hypnotizing. And once she was changed, she carried her gift on with her, and it only managed to grow stronger with the rest of her. It had never been her choice, but since she had such a gift, why not use it, right?
Although Scarlett knew that she was letting alot of her current floods of emotions show, she didn't much care, as any vampire, Scarlett could conceal her face easily, but she chose not too. The emotions running across her face could mean numerous different things. Such as just a mere happiness that she'd found someone else gifted, like herself, or that she had met a potential friend, or for the more deep reasons which she had in mind. Scarlett found it rude to keep her thoughts and emotions concealed, so she only did do on rare occasions, when it was necessary. Maybe she shouldn't let so much seep through though, this male might get the wrong impression. Vampires were quick to grasp confusing concepts, and sometimes it was better to downplay things.
Scarlett's attention on the male never faltered, in all honesty, she was deeply intruiged by his gift, and she saught to find out more about it. But, she woudn't be too foreward on the subject, of once again he might get the wrong impression. Which, in thier case, may be the right one, but who knew. Sometimes people got confused. She listened quite carefully and attentively to every word that escaped his mouth, filing away each sentance cautious and precisely. They might be handy later on.
As he spoke of 'the novelty wearing off, especially when you're the one burning', Scarlett's thoughts drifted for a second, trying to analyze the words meanings. There were several possibilites. One, the male had once burned himself while learning about his gift. Two, he was posing a threat to Scarlett that could mean either, he was onto her little game, or she should watch her back. Or three, he merely spoke of past victims. Scarlett didn't exactly grasp the meaning of the phrase, but she too stored that sentance away, noting to keep a good tab of it.
Perchance the amusement she was looking for? You could say that. Kira was definitely doing the job of killing her boredom, and spiking her intrest. The boy had potential. And she didn't want him to leave just yet. She hesitated for a moment before answering his question, obviously putting some thought into her answer and concealing some of the bright expression that was clearly flaunted across her pallid facade. It was still bright, only slightly dulled now, taken down a notch. "Yes," Scarlett spoke slowly, nodding her head slightly, her wavy black locks swaying. "You are that amusement. Thank you." Her alluring tone never left, and the longer she spoke with the male the more it would seep into any barriers he had set up. The fact wasn't intentional, although once again she used it to her advantage, but it was just something that naturally happened with her gift of persuasion. The longer you listen to something, the more trusting it sounds, and the more you start to slack on your gaurd. Although the speed of the process varied with different people.
Taking another step near the male, Scarlett decided to propose a question that could be refused if wished, but she thought it would be accepted. "Care to walk and talk? Standing still for too long makes me fidgety." She murmered in her still alluring tone, although she brought the persuasive tone in her voice up just enough that it would be harder to refuse the offer, but at the same time the height of it wouldn't be detected by the lad. "No matter how interesting you are, I still get fidgety, it's just a reflex, I suppose." She added with a light hearted chuckle, never failing to announce the fact of her intrest in the male. Although she hoped her wouldn't take it too literally and get scared off.
