Lucifer
,no edit summary
This enraged Lucifer, and he struck back by taking humans and creating the first [[demon]]s, the first of which was [[Lilith]] and possibly [[Alastair]] as well as creating the four [[Princes of Hell]] and passing his Mark onto [[Cain]] who would become the first [[Knight of Hell]] and create an elite unit from some of the first demons. This unforgivable affront led to his imprisonment in [[the Cage]] after a losing confrontation with his brother Michael. He remained there in isolation for millennia, where he would formulate a plan for his goal to be free from his Cage, and to eradicate humanity, allowing him to restore Earth to its original untainted glory. It is suggested that he would also destroy demons, his own creations, when he achieves his goal because he considers them less worthy than even humans.
Lucifer claims that he never lies, because he does not have to. He promises his [[vessel]]s [[Nick]] and [[Sam]] that he will be honest with them and never trick them, however when he tells Nick why he was cast out of Heaven he tells him it was because he loved God too much, neglecting to tell him how he created the first demons. He also says that he sympathizes with them, both of whom are victims like himself. He goes to some lengths to get Sam's acceptance, sparing [[Dean]]'s life once, and allowing Sam to exact revenge against some of the [[demon]]s that controlled many events in his life. It's later revealed that Lucifer had Nick's family murdered by the demon [[Abraxas]] specifically so that Lucifer could manipulate the man into giving him his consent, making Lucifer the true reason that Nick's family was killed.<ref name="fourteen11">[[14.11 Damaged Goods]]</ref>
A prideful angel, Lucifer does, however, show concern for his fellow angels, though it is the [[archangel]]s he loves most. He captures [[Castiel]], and admires the lesser angel's loyalty in refusing to reveal the presence of his friends. He invites Castiel to join him, and when Castiel refuses, Lucifer respects his decision. Lucifer is remorseful when forced to kill [[Gabriel]], and disappointed when [[Michael]] berates him. When preparing to fight his older sibling in their pre-destined battle, Lucifer pleads with Michael to "walk off the chessboard," but Michael is determined to fulfill his destiny and serve God. Even so, when Castiel Molotovs Michael with [[holy oil]], Lucifer is outraged by the attack on his brother and obliterates Castiel.
After taking [[President Jefferson Rooney]] as a vessel, Lucifer soon gets the idea to become a father by the president's mistress, [[Kelly Kline]], and creates a [[Nephilim]] during one of their sexual encounters. After being trapped in [[Apocalypse World]] and the majority of the his grace taken by that universe's [[Michael (Apocalypse World)|Michael]] for a spell to open a rift. Lucifer begins dealing with human emotions for the first time in his existence, and admits to his wanting to be accepted by God and the angels and his worry about being a father, and failing at that. Lucifer then appears to go through an existential crisis when he is granted rulership over the angels in Heaven, and attempts to be the "new God" and help humanity, his attempts end in failure, before abandoning his post and entering a state of despondence at his place in the universe.
Once Lucifer finally meets his son, [[Jack]], he genuinely appears to want to change and be the father Jack wants him to be. Going so far as to shed a tear when Gabriel tells him he will never change and Jack will see him for what he really is. Lucifer's attempts at change were short lived, and once Jack learns learned of his enjoyment in the brutal murder of [[Maggie (Apocalypse World)|Maggie]], disowns his father as a "monster", angering Lucifer who shows his true colors to his son, and steal's Jack's grace telling his child he only needs his power. With Jack's grace supercharging him, Lucifer took to his old arrogance, first telling Jack and Sam he will let one of them live, and give them a week to attempt to stop him from dismantling the universe. His arrogance proves to be his downfall, as when he faces off against [[Dean Winchester]], who is being powered by Michael, rather than killing him with an [[archangel blade]], he attempts to smite both Dean and Michael, but is caught off-guard when Dean is able to stab and kill him with an archangel blade.
