Nick
,no edit summary
Nick lived in Pike Creek, Delaware, and was married to a woman named [[Sarah]]. Together, they had a son named Teddy. One night, Sarah and the baby were murdered by the demon [[Abraxas]] as they slept while Nick was out, drinking at the Elk's Lodge.<ref name="fourteen07">[[14.07 Unhuman Nature]]</ref> After their deaths the grief-stricken Nick still resided in the house, and kept some objects that were connected to Sarah and his son.<ref name="five01">[[5.01 Sympathy for the Devil]]</ref>
[[Lucifer]] chooses to use Nick as a so-called "Plan B" [[vessel]] when [[Sam]] refused to consent to him.<ref name="five01" /><ref name="five03">[[5.03 Free to Be You and Me]]</ref> However, because he isn't the "true" vessel, over time Nick’s body slowly became more and more degraded. The longer he continued to be occupied by Lucifer the more his body burned out, due to his [[meatsuit]]'s inability to contain Lucifer's essence. [[Castiel]] tells Sam that Nick would be drinking gallons of [[demon blood]] in order to continue to host Lucifer.<ref name="five21">[[5.21 Two Minutes to Midnight]]</ref> Nick is dispossessed when Lucifer gains consent from Sam, his body left behind in a an apartment in Detroit.<ref name="five22">[[5.22 Swan Song]]</ref>
Despite no longer using Nick as a vessel, Nick appeared to be Lucifer's favored form to manifest visually in.<ref name="eleven09">[[11.09 O Brother, Where Art Thou?]]</ref><ref name="eleven10">[[11.10 The Devil in the Details]]</ref><ref name="eleven18">[[11.18 Hell's Angel]]</ref> Additionally, when Lucifer was expelled from Castiel by [[the Darkness]], an image of Nick briefly overlaid Castiel.<ref name="eleven22">[[11.22 We Happy Few]]</ref> Several years after Lucifer first possessed dispossessed Nick, his body was found by [[Crowley]]'s demons, where it was repaired, improved, and warded so that Nick's body could be a suitable permanent vessel and prison for Lucifer.<ref name="twelve13">[[12.13 Family Feud]]</ref><ref name="fourteen01">[[14.01 Stranger in a Strange Land]]</ref> Following Lucifer's defeat,<ref name="twelve08">[[12.08 LOTUS]]</ref> he was returned to Nick's unconscious body when Crowley altered [[Rowena]]'s spell, causing Nick to once more become Lucifer's vessel.<ref name="twelve13" /> Nick remained Lucifer's permanent vessel for the next year and a half until Dean killed Lucifer with an [[archangel blade]] while powered and possessed by the [[Apocalypse World]] version of [[Michael (Apocalypse World)|Michael]].<ref name="thirteen23">[[13.23 Let the Good Times Roll]]</ref>
When Nick survived Lucifer's death, Sam theorized it was because the archangel blade was designed to kill the possessing [[archangel]] while leaving the vessel unharmed. Nick takes up residence in a makeshift bedroom in [[the Bunker]]'s dungeon to recuperate from his ordeal.<ref name="fourteen01" /> His subsequent aggressiveness and Lucifer-like mannerisms when angered caused Castiel to believe that Lucifer did more damage to Nick's psyche than had been previously realized.<ref name="fourteen02">[[14.02 Gods and Monsters]]</ref>
