...So honestly, when it came down to it, I just grit my teeth and bared with the heartbreak. But anywho, let's get on with this. State your name?
Lucian.
Oh psh, do it properly...
...Fine. But this is the only time I'm admitting this.
That's alright with me. State your full name?
...dammit. Fayt Leongard. Though I prefer Lucian.
See? Wasn't so bad. Now tell the people your appearance.
Can't believe you're wanting to do this...well, I'm about six foot eight, jet black hair that hangs in front of my face, lava red eyes...there's not much to go into detail here, Matt.
I know, but you can at least try. What about before you became Lucian?
Jeez...you're enjoying this aren't you? Fine, blonde hair, blue eyes.
I wouldn't say enjoying...but why don't you go into more detail?
Well, I guess. Due to my 'being'...I can practically change my appearance, with only a few key elements staying similar, such as height or eyes.
And by 'being', you mean..?
We can go into that later. Next question.
Alright, I guess we can get to that later. Let's start with your parents.
Parents...My father was a cruel demon who liked to pillage and rape villages. My mother was the exact opposite, a true saint. I don't fully know how they met, but the stories were that she tamed the demon that he was. I was born first, then a few years later my...my sister was born.
What were their names?
My mother's name was Elizabeth, my father's name funnily was Lucius, and my sister...Amelia. My name was chosen as a sign of the Church.
I see...Do you remember much of your childhood?
Barely...time has whittled the memories to the most painful. Our village was one that usually came under attack by nomads or monsters, but my father and the militia were swift to defend us. I was training to be just like him, but...
This is where they discovered his true nature, right?
Yes...they were quick to cast him out, though for some reason they spared my mother and my sister, and myself... At the time, he was considered quite the demon, almost near the high ranking ones.
What happened after he was exiled..?
That's when things went downhill. My mother was begot with the plague, so after she died I cared for Amelia...until we were ambushed.
Ambushed?
Yes...huntsman. They heard word of a town harbouring possible demons, so they attacked. Burned half the village before they found Amelia and I. I tried to stop them, but..
Lucian, you don't have to tell this if it's gonna be painful..
No no, it's part of moving on. [/clears throat] They had Amelia hostage, and said they would spare her if I became a slave. I refused, and only managed to free her from the hunstman leader's grasp before...
Lucian...
Before she was stabbed through the chest from behind.
Jeez...
Then...I snapped. Something switched on inside of me, and when I came to, I was cradling A-Amelia...and the hunstmen were all d-dead.
This is when you realized you were a demon, yes?
No...that wasn't then.
It wasn't? But what exactly happened?
I don't know...the villagers claimed to see some shining, white light exploding from where I was, and then a giant pair of golden ghost-like wings erupted into the air..
No way...
[/nods slowly] Yes, it turns out my mother was in fact an Angel from the Heavens...this was the first time I had actually found out, to be honest.
I see...but why did they cast you out?
They thought that I was some sort of devil, able to those things...the Church were quick to drive me out with all I had on me, and Amelia...they buried her properly as a wish for my mother.
No wonder you hate religion...
Yeah...as I traveled, things started to go downhill. Every town and village I stayed at seemed to bring trouble. I remember my teenage years were horrible.
Because of your heritage?
No, they were mostly bigger than I was. Every time I defended myself, I ended up using my powers and was cast out..
Oh, I see..How did you become who you are now?
[/sighs] This is one memory I will never forget. I mean, you don't often forget how you died.
Wait, you're dead?! This probably explains some things..
Yes. Word of a travelling demon spread from village to village, and a secret Order tracked me down. They thought killing me would save their home from this horrible curse. Little did they know..
So, they just straight killed you?
No, they 'sacrificed' me to the Gods. As the life slipped from me, a voice echoed in my head. It told me that I was destined for something far greater than a human life...
And you were reborn?
Yes. It turned out I had been 'dead' for ten years...yet I still looked the same age when it happened.
So, the age you look now, essentially?
Yes, and no...for some reason I have begun aging a tiny bit. [/chuckles] Don't let Tess hear that! It's bad enough I'm old to begin with, but if I started looking it..
No no, don't worry about that. But how did you continue on?
Well, it turns out my appearance changed when I was 'reborn'. Hence the black hair and the eyes..But something else changed too. My outlook.
Your outlook?
Yes. I had become the opposite: I stole, murdered, even raped...I'm ashamed to admit that, but I did spend time repenting for those moments.
Wow...such a checkered past, Lucian.
Indeed. You'd be surprised, but I was alive during everything in this world. All the wars, the plagues...hell, I nearly fell into the Hiroshima bombing at one point.
What?!
Well, when I say nearly, I was too drunk to actually join the flight squad..
You're kidding...
[/takes a drink] This is taking a while...how much more do you want?
Not much now, just up to recent times.
Ah, fair enough. It came to a point where I was propositioned for something sinister: being ruler over the Underworld.
Hence, the Demon Lord title...
Yes, to be honest the previous Lord was getting petty with his duties, and I was forced to betray him. Once I took over, things seemed to go pretty good.
And we know what happens from there, so we can stop with the serious questions, yeah?
Sounds good. I won't forget my first day on the job...all those saucy succubi begging for me..
Lucian, best not to mention that.
Oops! Good point.
Now then, favorite color?
Red.
Food?
Funnily enough, pork dumplings. I don't eat them as much, but they're a nice treat.
Kinks?
Psh, like you're going to find out.
Liquour?
I tend not to drink...but normally beer.
Animal?
Wolf. Or dragon...not entirely sure.
Weapons?
D.
And by D, you mean..?
Yes, Demonology. Technically, his full name is De'monithorax, but Demonology, or D even, sounds better. He's a strange little ghast that's able to change into whatever I will.
Now that's a mouthful. Hopes?
Well...let's not. Hopes aren't that great these days.
Uhh.. Dreams?
That's sort of private.
Fears?
Death...not just for myself, but for others.
Quirks?
Apparently, I tend to snore in my sleep. Never heard of it though.
Gemstone?
Topaz.
I think that's about it...though, I do want to ask about Robin, you kind of missed out on that.
Oh, I was wondering if you were. Perhaps another time, it's a bit late. Tess is kind of waiting for me..
Okay, kinda sounding like TMI here. Thanks Lucian. Any parting words?
Chickenbutt. [/laughs] Sorry, couldn't resist.
