Talk:Lucifer

Drop the origin?
I might have skipped a scene where his origins were mentioned, but was it really stated that he grew arrogant and made other angels join him? If I remember correctly, he refused to bow down to human, and for beign rebellious, God had him cast down to Hell. There, he created Lilith, in which God actually sealed him where nobody could come near him. Unfortunately, I don't have any copies of the previous season at hand, so this is just from what I remember, but for me, it sounds like the Origin-section is taken from another information source, and not from what is canon in the series.

Granted, I might be wrong, but I wanted to make sure before I edit anything on his page.

 * It would seem that the origin mentioned in the article is not actually canon (according to the show), but rather from real world mythology and no doubt, the Bible. Can't completely recall whether there was any explicit mention of fallen angels following him though. I would support the removal of non-canon parts. Calebchiam Talk 12:53, May 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, the story is the same, for if you recall, Azazel spoke of how he wandered the desert for years looking for Lucifer. Azazel was one of the fallen angels that was cast out with Lucifer, and was thrown into a desert to wander by Raphael. This was briefly alluded to in Lucifer Rising, where Azazel spoke of how he'd been "wandering the desert for years, looking for our father". What's more, Uriel also implied and spoke about the war in Heaven, amongst other angels throughout who have spoken of "the last war". Lucifer also spoke of the part in which he asked Michael to join him before his rebellion broke out in The End. With no backstory to go off of, this article would be pointless. Also, do not confuse the fact that most all of the Supernatural storylines are heavily if not entirely based upon their real-life mythologies. Lucifer1987 14:06, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

I support the data and information that Lucifer1987 gave. He or she was very explicit and this user stands correct in all of his or her statements. The scene statements were also very accurate; these statements came from canonical sources.

After his downfall, Lucifer shouldn't be considered an archangel anymore. More like an archdemon.Epakrios (talk) 21:55, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

That's technically false, though. All the rules of that govern an archangel still applied to Lucifer. He still needed a (living) vessel and a consent. Even demons still considered him to be an angel. FTWinchester (talk) 22:40, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

Of course I understand that that's what the producers wanted him to be in the show. I just said what he should be considered. He does not represend good, because he is the source of all evil and, normally, angels are forces of good.Epakrios (talk) 22:47, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

It did make for an interesting twist, though. I mean most works describe him to be a fallen angel, but usually represent him to be entirely something else. Seeing him in this series still as an archangel (almost basically unchanged) made it a bit different from other literature of the same genre. FTWinchester (talk) 23:11, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

Much seems taken from classic mythology, not Supernatural canon
Did they ever mention in Supernatural that other angels fell with Lucifer (and became demons)? My impression was that *all* of the demon were corrupted humans. Lilith was the most powerful of them, and she was formerly human.
 * First, sign your posts using four "~". Secondly, yes they allude at different points about the fallen angels, Azazel being one of them. In biblical lore, Azazel was one of the fallen angels that sided with Lucifer during the War in Heaven and was there when they were defeated. Raphael, the archangel, subsequently cast Azazel into a desert, where he wandered for years in search of his master and thinking of ways to taint humanity as his master had done. Azazel alludes to this in Lucifer Rising when he states that "I have been wandering the desert for years, looking for our father." This is just one of those instances. Uriel also speaks of Lucifer's rebellion and described him as a very beautiful angel shortly before he was killed by Anna Milton. Lucifer1987 16:46, May 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * It is technically never stated if Azazel is one of the fallen angels, and even if he was, neither is it stated that Raphael was the one to banish him. Angels and demons in Supernatural sometimes mock or mention that the Bible is wrong or different from how it truly happened, so for all we know, Azazel could be aware of the Bible's story of him and mentioned it in a way to mock it, since he was in a church.


 * I'm not saying that it is completely untrue, but I think that it is possible. On the other hand, if Azazel really was an fallen angel, he would most likely be an average angel like Uriel; it is speculated that the Colt can kill normal angels, and if Azazel fell from being average angel, we know that average angels have equal or inferior strength to white-eyed demons and Lilith, thus it would make sense that the Colt was able to kill him, even if he was very high up in the list of powerful demons.


 * I do agree that they mention a war in Heaven and all in a non-mocking situation, but unless the writers have mentioned something I've missed, we can only assume that Azazel did not joke when he said he wandered the dessert, and that it was Raphael who bansihed him.


 * On the other hand, is it a reason why images from Paradise Lost are used here? While some terms about Lucifer from the book is used here, the images are never usd in the show itself, and seems to be there only to show the story. I don't really think they should be there, but it might just be my opinion. I'd like to write more, but I've got a bus to catch, sorry.


 * Penamesolen 11:43, May 22, 2010 (UTC)


 * Much of Supernatural is based upon the actual lore of the creatures, and I really don't think they're going to have Azazel mention his story in a mocking fashion if it wasn't true. He was after all noted in biblical lore to have been an angel, so we really have no reason to believe he was lying. To say so is to try to simply avoid it, which isn't a good policy.


 * As to the pictures, they're very well-known images that are often associated with Lucifer, even on Wikipedia. Therefore, I see nothing wrong with using them, especially when we have history sections about the actual mythology of the creatures. I see no reason to remove them, especially considering that the show never shows us flashbacks of what happened. When you don't have much to work with, you have to use what you can if you want to have a very appealing article. Lucifer1987 15:51, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

David Kaique please read this...
Regarding the picture I specifically planted into Lucifer's character template, why did you (David Kaique) feel the need to revert it back? I mean, come on; first off, the one I inserted was, no offense, and I mean you no disrespect whatsoever, a lot better. -- ImperiexSeed, 3:50 PM, May 6th 2011

Season 7 Appearances
Does anyone know for a fact that Lucifer will be appearing after The Born Again Identity. It has not been confirmed at all if he will be appearing to Castiel. So why does he have all these appearances in upcoming episodes? Mr.Comatose 00:41, April 27, 2012 (UTC)

Registered User
To prevent these pages from being tampered with by Wiki Contributors with their own varied opinions can you guys make it so only registered can tamper with pages, so you can know exactly who is doing it and why?Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 01:15, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

The Supernatural Wiki does fine with Wiki Contributers such as myself being allowed to edit on pages, so there is absolutely no reason to go such extremes as to restrict to registered users only. I have edited on this wiki for at least three years, I can honestly say your conern for the pages being tampered by those with varied opinions happens more often with registered users than it does with Wiki Contributers. 107.194.27.114 01:25, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Anons can be anyone, plus if you add yourself it wouldn't change your work ethic. Besides registered users can easily be taken out. Anons are much more devious. I like this Wiki and I want to keepit safe from those who wish to treat it as a worthless space to clutter with theories, authorative aggression, and abuse of community privileges. Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 01:54, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

The fact is any trouble with Wiki Contributers is not frequent enough nor too extreme that would require editing on the wiki to be restricted from them in general. In addition, registion is not a mandatory policy on Wikia, so Anons should be free to contribute annonymously if that is what they prefer. You can not simply place such a restriction on a wiki to only registered users because a lone user does not want Anons to be allowed access as he/she finds them as a whole to be responisble for what the minority with malicous intent have done, when most others are actually helping to improve the wiki instead. With that said, I feel you are being too judgemental to unregistered users (including myself), seeing as this wiki often has edit wars between those who are registered as well as heated discussions on the talk pages that ocassionally can get too way out of hand, wheras I rarely see such devious Wiki contributers you speak of. If I may point out, you wanting to keep the Supernatural Wiki safe from users who wish to use it as worthless space to clutter with theories, authorative agression, and abuse of community privileges sounds more like displeasure towards ImperiexSeed for how he has adminstrated the wiki rather than trouble caused by Anons. 108.225.239.27 05:39, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

I have nothing against Imperiex, but I feel he has the potential to be an enormous threat. You anons have the choice to join and what exactly is stopping you. Because you like the feeling of being anonymous and don't want to be known but still contribute right? "Wheras I rarely see such devious Wiki contributers you speak of"? Of course you don't see them, but I do on the Wiki I primarily help on. All the same, besides you would have more free reign if you were registered anyway so what exactly is the problem with it? You feel you are being too judgemental to unregistered users (including youself)? No anon, I don't think I being judmental enough. Personal opinions are scattered across anons and registered users, and through unkown contributions it only makes them more complicated to regulate. I am not restricting your freedom, you can still edit as much as you could registered as you were unregistered, probably even more so. It's funny how you want to contribute but don't even put yourself as part of the community. It's one of the reasons why anons are so troublesome.Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 17:12, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

But these devious Wiki Contributers you see on the wiki you primary help on are irreleant to the Supernatural Wiki, so again, you can not you use that as a basis to restrict access from the Anons on this wiki.. 108.247.158.61 17:47, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Like I said before (probably somewhere else) they are everywhere and I never said I didn't see them on this wiki as well as the one I work on, so don't even try to use that against me, Anon. In fact, I see on right now. Consus, the Erudite God (talk) 17:51, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Fine, keep it here. I don't see why it's prohibited if it's my own comments but I really don't careConsus, the Erudite God (talk) 00:16, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

BIokinesis vs molecular manipulation
Don't you guys think manipulating molecules is more like molecular manipulation than biokinesis?Undominanthybrid (talk) 11:11, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, but the process basically involves boiling the blood of the victim to make them explode. That's why I say it's biokinesis. SilverRain (talk) 01:53, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

My stance, Molecular Manipulation > Biokinesis > Telekinesis. As while, both Molecular Manipulation and Biokinesis is a separate power from Telekinesis. It's at it's base form just a advanced form of Telekinesis, but depending on the user it can separate into a completely separate power from Telekinesis. Similar to how Pryokinesis is just the control of fire while, Telekinesis is movement of object and persons in general.&#91;&#91;User:Twilight Despair 5&#124;&#93;&#93; (&#91;&#91;The God of Creation&#93;&#93;) (talk) 02:02, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Don't you think that blood can be boiled through Thermokinesis?85.154.176.15 19:44, February 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Most definitely, I'd say. But only by holders like Death/the Pale Horseman/Hades, Michael and Lucifer (and, God, obviously). -- ImperiexSeed, 3:03 PM, February 14th 2013


 * I never actually got the impression Lucifer killed by boiling blood. I just assumed he used Telekinesis to make Cas blow up by literally tearing him apart, like he did with the Pagan gods, only stronger.
 * Though there are other ways it could have happened:
 * Thermokinesis - Rapidly increase the temperature of the air in Jimmy's lungs. Would cause almost instantaneous expansion of said air.
 * Thermokinesis - Boil Jimmy's blood. The release of gases would cause him to rupture.
 * Molecular Manipulation - Change the polar charge of every molecule in Jimmy's body so they all repelled each other, causing him to explode.
 * What I don't understand is how any of that would actually kill Castiel. Sure, all of it would destroy his vessel, but they're all physical deaths affecting a physical vessel. I don't get how it killed a spiritual being. KevinTheDestoryer (talk) 22:41, February 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Lucifer, too, is a Spiritual being. And Angel's powers affect each other, obviously. Now, while Angel forms and physiques don't have veins or tendons - they're bodies, nonetheless. Lucifer attacked Castiel's body, and killed it, in the form of Biokinesis. -- ImperiexSeed, 5:46 PM, February 14th 2013


 * No, it's far beyond just biokinesis. Castiel said he was literally 'gone' or dead when he exploded--something else just brought him back. So, there is something else more powerful accompanying the biokinesis (which kills the vessel). The term Raphael and Dean used in 'Free to Be You and Me' was 'smite'. So, what Lucifer did to Castiel, and what Raphael did to Castiel, and what Godstiel/Soulstiel did to Raphael was biokinesis+smiting power. FTWinchester (talk) 22:49, February 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, in Supernatural, the term "smite", is associated with Killing Touch. Or, so it seems. The word smite means to annihilate or destroy. Or, I guess, "end",(of something) could the appropriate term for "smite." -- ImperiexSeed, 5:54 PM, February 14th 2013


 * And end did the lives of the target beings. I'm just saying the canon described the act as 'smiting', so we should label it as such, and rename the current 'Smite' as the killing touch. Or it is possible that both are the same, in the sense that they deliver a kill, just with differing magnitudes of power and range. FTWinchester (talk) 23:05, February 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * In THAT sense, yes - they're the same. But Killing Touch ("smiting") is not the same as imploding something. The result is, essentially, the same - death. But to say that Killing Touch and to blow something up are the same, in representing "smiting", is wrong. -- ImperiexSeed, 6:11 PM, February 14th 2013


 * That is paramount to saying that the episode script and the writers are wrong.


 * Chuck said in 'Sympathy for the Devil', "The archangel smote the crap out of him.'
 * Raphael in 'Free to Be You and Me' said, "It is a testament to my unending mercy that I do not smite you here and now." To which Dean replies, "Or maybe you're full of crap. Maybe God will bring Cas back to life again and smite you and your candy-ass skirt."


 * Those lines describe exactly what our wiki has been calling 'Molecular Combustion', only 'Molecular Combustion' merely destroys the host/vessel and not the supernatural being, as KevinTheDestoryer pointed out earlier.  FTWinchester (talk) 23:23, February 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * You forget two things. One, Castiel was all but human, he was basically human, until God restored him with new powers. Second, when an Angel or Demon possess someone. If certain conditions are met when the body is destroyed, it also kills the angel or demon. Also, 'smiting' is not a power per say, but around the lines as Rapheal and Uirel said smiting as this is what it means in my own words  As a divine, holy, etc beings killing or passing judgement on lesser things." 
 * As far as killing touch. They are two kinds, ones that have an effect that can kill, and ones that possess the power of Death. Like with Reapers and Death. I mean, that Special Child in season 2, her power made people's hearts stop. But, that's not the same as a reaper which his'her touch is basically Death itself. As with those people, in Death takes a Holiday in season 4. Minus conditions like crossroad deals, and hellhounds, and maybe deals with angels. If a reaper is binded in an area, all death stop.&#91;&#91;User:Twilight Despair 5&#124;&#93;&#93; (&#91;&#91;The God of Creation&#93;&#93;) (talk) 00:30, February 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Castiel wasn't exactly human the first time he exploded like a balloon--and that's the scenario the dialogues I posted pointed out. FTWinchester (talk) 01:42, February 15, 2013 (UTC)

Psychic Projection?
Wasn't the reason Lucifer could talk to Azazel because Azazel performed some sort of ritual by sacrificing nuns and isn't Lucifer's hallucination due to the Sam's cage match scars? If so, how is that projection?

Companion Guide said that Sammy's hallucinations were a psychic projection.Dragonvalejunkie (talk) 19:09, February 11, 2014 (UTC)

I could be mistaken, but I don't recall such a ritual was required to speak with Lucifer through his "cage door." If I'm correct, he killed the nuns for kicks. It wasn't revealed it was anything more than hallucinations, but in the companion guide for season seven, it says he could've been projecting a part of himself from the cage. -- ImperiexSeed, 2:19 PM, February 11th 2014

Azazel says "I'm not exactly the praying type but still I made the sacrifice, I got you a bag full of nuns, so can you hear me? Can you whisper through the door". Which implies sacrificing the nuns was what let Lucifer speak to Azazel rather than just meaningless kill. Which would make sense as Lucifer talks through the mouth of one of the dead nuns. Also, Sam's hallucinations being Lucifer projecting himself from the cage makes so sense, as the wall wouldn't help repress that and it would mean lucifer was projecting himself into castiel's mind as well as Leviathan Sam's.

Better than his own kind??
I am curious, sure, Lucifer had followers, but those that surfaced, led by uriel were likely all weaker than one of Lucifers own creations, a demon, one in example being Alastair, and being that Lucifer would likely use demons for his cause, if Uriel had survived and so did Alastair, wouldn't Lucifer have the more powerful demon in charge of his loyalist angels??

Alastair, who in all fairness seems weaker than by a wide margin than Cain or lilith, seems perfectly capeable of holding rank over lesser angels, and from what we saw, uriel, a standard angel, was in charge of the angel loyalists. It seems amazing to me that Lucifer can corrupt a human soul into a being more powerful than the second tier of his own race, the lowest being cherubs, but certain demons without doubt are far stronger than angels, given the fact that Sam killed Alstair, then did little more then make Liliths hair  move kinda shows the power gap, where as Cain seems to have deity like powers and is much higher to a regular demon than a seraph is to an angel.

So I have to wonder, if Lucifer can produce beings stronger than angels, whats to say that he diddn't make one or two to be stronger than Seraphs? I mean he is capeable right?? and with Cains recent showings, I'm strongly in the impression that cain is one such demon, I think Lucifer initially wanted him as his destroyer class ultimate weapon, but during the apocalypse he was able to hide, if an angel can help the boys prevent archangels finding them then im sure the supirior, ancient, god like demon cain could aswel, I mean even seraph castiel couldn't click his fingers to teleport the king of hell or the winchesters from place to place, or silence anyone, i think the reason, they decided to shown off what cain can do was to clearly point out, that he is not a normal demon, he was made with a special purpose, to kill angels, with an angel blade or possibly his smiting, or at least casually overpower seraphs, when Lucifer made Lilith, it was his first attempt, like gods first was the leviathan, but Cain was Lucifers archangel Michael, his refined work, thats what I think anyway, thing is, the Archangel can make Angel thwarting demons so why not seraph thwarting demons???

Princepurple (talk) 17:35, March 11, 2014 (UTC)

Cain is indeed a worthy candidate, but like I've always said, speculation until proven in canon. Although I really don't consider Season 6 onwards to be canon anymore, but more like sometimes really good and sometimes absolute garbage fanfiction as its lore is vastly different from the established lore in the Kripke era. And I think you've already produced a better example on this matter in the past, which is the cambion. FTWinchester (talk) 17:44, March 11, 2014 (UTC)

Ok, first off, Uriel possesses the strength far beyond that of regular angels. He probably could've smote Alastair, or at least disfigure his vessel to where it'd be unidentifiable. I can't say I agree with gap perimeter. But, anyway. Sure, Lucifer could corrupt a human into a demon strong enough devastate seraphs. Lucifer stood as the demons' god while Lilith was their messiah-Cain is not a "demon god" in the sense that I'm talking about, although he could wreak any demon besides Lilith. -- ImperiexSeed, 1:50 PM, March 11th 2014

And why is lilith stronger in your mind? because she is older? leviathans are older than archangels but not stronger apparently, no reason why lucifer cant make a demon stronger than his first, if he wanted during apocalypse, i bet he could have created a new demon above liliths power, and why would you believe Uriel to be that powerful? sure he was a specialist but he was a regular angel just specialist at specific jobs, like destroying a town, from a spell or something that he perticularly excells at, that angel called Hael claimed that when she reached the grand canyon she would show him what she is capeable of, alluding to th possibility to causing some sort of disaster.

I'm sure Alastair would be fully aware if Uriel could pose a threat, he seemed perfectly confident he was stronger than both of them, and for good reason, sure uriel claimed he could turn sam to dust, but he was very arrogant, but sure a human, but in a similar way to how alastair was out right immune to smiting of an angel, he could also be immune to whatever vessal destroying powers uriel had, as uriel could smite lower demons, but it was no breeze, not like seraph castiel no problem smiting, uriel took time and concentration, i think alastair did his homework beforehand and knew what he could deal with, uriel, unable to successfully torture alastair did not seem to eager to try taking on alastair face to face, as sure, uriel beat cas, but not to the extremes and resiliance that alastair did, and with alastair being affected by the knife and cain not, i would say alastair was the weakest white eyed demon, but im sure, had the first battle continued, alastair would have dealt with both angels.

Princepurple (talk) 18:56, March 11, 2014 (UTC)

Lilith was described by Kripke to be like the "highest of the high"; meaning no demon idea could ever pass her without the writers contradicting themselves. And the neat thing about Alastair is his exceedingly high pain threshold, on a level probably close to angel. Like Gadreel said they could, even including Castiel, torture him for centuries and they'd still fail. No, no, no, no, no. And, no.... You're right, Uriel did take time and concentrated to smite Alastair's lackeys. I'll give you that. I think the "turn you to dust" thing should be taken at face value and something he surely could've done if he wanted to; he could've used a number of ways to do this, white light being one of them. And it's pretty amazing the fact that Uriel can nuke 'areas,' depending on what that means. However, take note that Uriel killed seven angels and quickly overpowered Castiel (and I wouldn't say, necessarily, that his promotion increased his angelic power). Hell, maybe Castiel was afraid if he disobeyed again with Uriel that he'd be demoted to Cherub rank. -- ImperiexSeed, 3:09 PM, March 11th 2014

Excuse me while I steer clear of the messy ranking debates yet again, I'm just here to offer a potential explanation as to why demons could be created to be stronger than regular angels. Souls themselves are extremely powerful sources of energy. Perhaps Lucifer knew how to imbibe those corrupted souls with a bit of his own power, hence allowing the combined power of the souls and Lucifer's whatever (torment/power/gift) to create certain demons that could overcome the power level of the lower angels. FTWinchester (talk) 05:11, March 12, 2014 (UTC)

Well for one, the white light power it's self in all fairness, seems very linked to the smiting power, so if Alastair is immune to smiting, there is room to say he could be immune to the white light too, and noticing how Malachi killed two angels easily with a surprise and highly accurate attack aswell as regular castiel overpowering Bartholemew, the fact that uriel overpowered castiel, may simply be because he was more skilled than Castiel at that time (he since became very active in terms of combat) and may have been more skilled than, or simply stealthily, or surprise attacked the others, he was certainly below anna at one point and by extension below zachariah, so i highly dount that uriel could do anything to far beyond a regular angel, and i highly believe he would have used some sort of spell and was well versed in the craft, as the only entity that has demonstrated the ability to destroy an area unaided is Death (Michael and Lucifer seems to be an effect from the battle)and no angel has ever shown the power to turn humans to dust, the Rit zhian even did not do such a thing, if it was that easy why would angels bother smiting, like when Gadreel smited kevin? surely it would be a faster death to turn him to dust.

Also, Lith being the highest does not neccasarily dicate that authority is equal to rank, and Kripke statement is now very old and was stated long before the likes of Cain being introduced, lilith may have been the most powerful in terms of raw power but not in resilliance as she seemed awefully terrified of a blade, maybe she diddnt wish to take chances, but was cain willing to? I think if a younger demon would knew that a knife could not kill him, then lilith would know full well of it, alastair by this logic likely being younger than cain.

And also, with Lucifer being comparable to a seraph as a deity is to a human, im assuming that if he wanted to, lucifer could easily and with good reason, create demons to not only overpower seraphs, but wipe out entire garrisons, as it does seem as if lucifer imbued an amount of his power into certain demons, perticularly the white eyed ones, explaining the white eyes and white light/smiting powers, and even  a pinprick of any archangels essence is likely enough to wipe out every single seraph, so yes, im firm on the idea that Cain is white eyed and can kill seraphs.

But the amazing thing about cain is he would likely not do so unless it was required, his unique personality seems great and he seems like a demon who has been injected with tons of human blood, him being calm, more belevolent than most angels and extremely powerful and terrifying.

Princepurple (talk) 00:27, March 13, 2014 (UTC)

Would it be excusable if the current writers changed the names of Dean and Sam to Wilbur and Bo? If not, then it's not excusable to contradict Eric's quote, or he shouldn't have made such a specific statement and left it open for refiled determination down the road. What was Uriel more skilled at than Castiel at that time? To begin, that's really iffy whereas it was brightly indicated that he possesses a physical exertion level beyond regular angels. Certainly, he could've chanted a spell to wipe out an 'area' but he could've also likely just leveled it without the use of anything but his own power. I never mentioned him wiping out a whole state, like Death, I used his direct quote, where he used the term 'area.' Your gap placements are really foggy and unfounded, and I can't say I agree with them. Well, then why would you believe the statement that Castiel made about Jesse wiping out the Host of Heaven with a word but not Uriel's? And his terminology of 'area' could be just as drifting as 'specialist.' He could've been a angel who was weird in his strength and other capabilities-maybe it was something that, of his fellow regular angels, only he could do. -- ImperiexSeed, 9:40 PM, March 12th 2014

Lets be honest, if both Alastair and Uriel had survived it's much more likely Alastair and Uriel would have no connection at all. As much as Uriel loved Lucifer, he makes it quite clear he despises demons (much like Lucifer himself), so it'd be most likely that Uriel would gather the Lucifer loyalists and Alastair would command a faction of the demons and once Lucifer's plan was complete, Uriel and the Lucifer loyalists would have laughtered the demons together. Furthermore, Lucifer didn't create demons from scratch. He twisted and warped them into demons. And if he did create Cain as a special brand of demon that could wipe out seraphs, why not make all demons that strong? Hell, why make them to be weapons at all if he can destroy all angels (except Michael). Lucifer made demons as a screw you to God and as servants, not warriors like angels. And even then Lucifer must have some limitation on his powers, otherwise what would be the point in half his other creations? Why have the Anti Christ created when you can obliterate the host of heaven just as easy? Why spread the croatoan virus when you can just raise your hand and roast the planet? Also with regards to Lilith's power, the oldest beings are typically the strongest in Supernatural canon. I can't actually think of an exception. Plus logically Lilith would be scared of the knife as if she died then the whole plan would be ruined. And while Cain was on earth for thousands of years, Lilith was trapped in Hell for god knows how long so it's possible Cain had encountered such as weapon before where as she hadn't, especially given Cain's reputation. Also, while it's possible demons such as Cain, and maybe even Lilith and Alastair, can fight seraphs, it seems unlikely any demon could actually win. Alastair states he has no idea how to kill him and given that it would be a question of God's creations against Lucifers mockerys, I'd bet on seraphs.

Lucifer's Origin Lore
The idea of Lucifer being asked to bow down in front of God and the whole dialogue between him and God has been adopted from the Qur'an of Islamic lore. Could we add that somewhere perhaps in the trivia maybe? I don't know. Seems appropriate. Hold on, I'll show you guys what I'm talking about.

 You know why God cast me down? Because I loved him. More than anything. And then God created...

 You. The little, hairless apes. And then he asked all of us to bow down before you. To love you, more than Him! And I said, Father, I can't. I said, these human beings, were flawed, murderous. And for that, God had Michael cast me into Hell!

 Now tell me, does the punishment fit the crime? Especially when I was right. Look what six billion of you have done to this thing. And how many of you blame me for it.

 [Lucifer to Dean, Supernatural 5x4]

 The dialogue seems extremely similar to that between the angels and God in the Qur'an,

 And remember when your Lord said to the angels:

 "Verily, I am going to establish mankind as My vicegerent on Earth."

 They said:

 "Will You place therein those who will wreak havoc therein and shed blood, while we glorify You with praises and love You and sanctify You?"

 He said:

 "I know that which you do not know."

 And He taught Adam all the names of all things, then He showed them to the angels and said:

 "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."

 The angels said:

 "Glory be to You, we have no knowledge except what you have taught us. Verily, it is You, the Omniscient."

 He said:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.3em;"> "O Adam! Inform them of their names,"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.3em;"> And when he had informed them of their names, He said:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.3em;"> "Did I not tell you that I know whatever is within the Heavens and the Earth and I know what you reveal and what you conceal?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.3em;">  And remember when We said to the angels:

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.3em;"> "Prostrate yourselves before Adam."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.3em;"> They all prostrated, except Iblis, he refused, prideful, becoming of the disbelievers – the Accursed Satan.

Archangels and Powers.
The only thing an Archangel loses from not being connected to heaven, is the ability to return to Heaven. Eric Kripke confirmed this as to why the apocalypse was needed. As Lucifer couldn't just return to Heaven after he was freed of the cage. But he also said it might because of Michael running heaven, thus the ruler of Heaven making the rules on Heaven. As to why in later seasons a fall angel Castiel could still go to Heaven&#91;&#91;User:Twilight Despair 5&#124;&#93;&#93; (&#91;&#91;The God of Creation&#93;&#93;) (talk) 01:26, January 11, 2015 (UTC)

Lucifer is a poorly portrayed devil
Lucifer has father issues, aside from that he is a poorly portrayed devil because he is such a whiny boy. This is supposed to be the incarnation of evil ? - Laughable. He was supposed to be the devil but ended up as nothing more than a very powerful child with father issues. Annoying enough, they brought him back in season 11, let's hope the Darkness kills him soon. 95.112.200.213 04:52, December 24, 2015 (UTC)

Lucifer is the best! He's my favorite character and a lot of other people's too. He is the same as religion shows him - more Muslim I think though?


 * I neither know nor do I care how islam portrayed him. I only hope the primordial Darkness - Amara, punishes that little boy. 95.112.200.213 05:06, December 24, 2015 (UTC)

You said that he he didn't portray the Devil well, then I showed that he is similar to the Satan in other religions. Plus I thought he was super scary! It makes me sad you think he was laughable.


 * The devil is supposed to be the very incarnation of evil. But Lucifer actually still cares about his brothers and his father. That's not pure evil - not the devil. He almost cried as he killed Gabriel, - if he would be pure evil, he would laugh about it. Season 5 can never be undone, it was always be recognized as the worst part of Supernatural. 95.112.200.213 05:14, December 24, 2015 (UTC)

To you it will always be recognized as the worst part, but to almost every other fan it was the best season!!!!!!

Assbutt
This sounds ridiculous but was it Castiel who shouted "Assbutt" at Lucifer? I'm pretty certain it was Dean.Kajune (talk) 18:04, January 22, 2016 (UTC)

It is just like it was shown in the episode. Castiel calls Michael an assbutt and hurls the holy oil molotov cocktail. RaghavD '"Look into my eyes. It’s where my demons hide"  18:14, January 22, 2016 (UTC)

No no, when Dean and Castiel were running towards Lucifer, Dean shouted "Hey, Assbutt", so technically Dean called Lucifer that, but here it states it was Castiel. Kajune (talk) 19:12, January 22, 2016 (UTC)

No, it was certainly Castiel.Darchangel 66-The Light who subdues the Darkness (talk) 23:06, March 28, 2016 (UTC)

Lucifer's Personality
Okay I’ve seen a lot of hate about Lucifer acting all sarcastic and evil like Hallucifer, but it actually makes a lot of sense. Lucifer is now mentally unstable. Imagine being trapped ALONE for thousands upon thousands of years, with only one thing keeping you going; Knowing that there is a person who is guaranteed to understand and mirror you, and this person will one day set you free from your awful prison. Now imagine this person not doing that, and instead shoving you back into that prison. You have no hope of getting out this time, and now this person who trapped you in here AGAIN is with you, along with someone who wants to fight and kill you...

Lucifer had gone insane because what he considered his chance had been taken, and his “fate” had been completely changed. So yes, Lucifer is different. Lucifer has lost EVERYTHING and now he is on a lonely path with no mental stability or direction. The old Lucifer had a “fate” given to him and believed Sam would inevitably learn to understand him. When Sam threw him into the cage, the only thing keeping him grounded was murdered. So Lucifer developed. He was not changed to fit the plot's need or to be more evil, but a natural progression from point A to B. The Hallucination we saw in season 7 and the Lucifer we are seeing now is the Lucifer that Sam encountered in the Cage, after his destiny and hope was taken from him.

Amara called him the First Son and God's Favorite
Does she mean as a metaphor for Archangels being the First Son or Species created by God as well as his title as God's most trusted lieutenant? Obviously Mike is the oldest Archangel.

Either Amara didn't know who was the oldest, or the writers made a mistake. It maybe even a retcon. Kajune (talk) 03:36, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

It's obviously a retcon. She was there when the archangels were created, and the lore (Michael is the oldest) is well known throughout the majority of the world, so the writers couldn't have made a mistake.

Orion ( T - B -C) 06:16, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

Lucifer isn't the first born angel. Michael said that he raised Michael like Lucifer raised Gabriel. Also look at the relation between Sam and Dean and Michael and Lucifer. Michael is definetly the oldest. SeraphLucifer (talk) 08:05, April 7, 2016 (UTC)SeraphLucifer

Yeah, and Reapers weren't angels. Now they are. It's a retcon. You're removing it because you don't like the change they made, but that's not a justification for it. It's canon now. That's all there is to it.

Orion ( T - B -C) 09:14, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

Blaziken, Amara might not say that literally. Firstly Kripke confirmed that Michael is the oldest, second they stated Michael was older in the show. Look at episode The Song Remain the Same. Michael older brother, Dean older brother. Lucifer younger brother, Sam younger brother both rebelious to Dad's plan. SeraphLucifer (talk) 09:22, April 7, 2016 (UTC)SeraphLucifer

Kripke also probably stated Reapers were not angels, but that's not true anymore, is it? I can list a plethora of reasons why Reapers being angels is absurd, but that doesn't matter. They were retconned, just like Lucifer. A wiki is supposed to be about canon; not about the fanbase's problems with it.

Orion ( T - B -C) 09:26, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

Look, I totally agree with you but, we got certain proves that Michael is the older one.

Michael: You know, my brother, I practically raised him. I took care of him in a way most people could never understand, and I still love him.

Gabriel: Think about it. Michael, the big brother, loyal to an absent father, and Lucifer, the little brother, rebellious of Daddy's plan.

We cannot change these statements Blaziken. SeraphLucifer (talk) 09:35, April 7, 2016 (UTC)SeraphLucifer

Yes, the retcon created a series of plotholes, just like the one with the Reapers did. The fact is, Lucifer is God's first son. This was established on the show, without any ambiguity. No writers' statements, nothing. It was stated, flat-out, by someone whose knowledge is not to be questioned, as she was there.

Orion ( T - B -C) 09:39, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

First Son also does not mean the first born Archangel since angels do not have genders. Amara cannot know their family better than Gabriel or Michael or other angels. SeraphLucifer (talk) 09:42, April 7, 2016 (UTC)SeraphLucifer

She was there. She's their aunt. She knows their family relations as well as they do. You're making excuses because you don't want to accept the retcon. Lucifer is always described as male, as are the other Archangels. Even if they lack genders, "son" is still a general term for "child". "First son/daughter" sounds a lot better than "First child". Again, those statements are now irrelevant, for the same reason the facts establishing Reapers as not being Angels are irrelevant.

Orion ( T - B -C) 09:47, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

Look, I want Lucifer to be the first born Archangel since I watch the show. I got deep searching, works about Satanism and Lucifer/Samael/Azazel/Satan/Devil in most religions and I criticize SPN at that point. But he is not the oldest one in the show. Those statements are way worthier than Amara's uncertain word. SeraphLucifer (talk) 09:58, April 7, 2016 (UTC)SeraphLucifer

OK, let's start from the basics. What is a retcon? A retcon is the change of established canon. Meaning, if the writers had said that Angels had purple wings, for example, then said their wings were green, their latest statement would undo the previous one. Within the series, it's as if they had always had green wings. This is a retcon. Those statements are irrelevant, because the newest one contradicts them.

Orion ( T - B -C) 10:02, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

I also think Amara was saying that referring to the Arcangels in general. In all series, Michael was always described as being the oldest Angel. Furthermore, with two Arcangels dead and one in the Cage, Lucifer is in a way God's oldest and closest Angel of them all.Rakoon1 (talk) 10:53, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

That's stretching it. Amara doesn't know if Gabriel or Raphael are dead. Heck, I don't think she even knew she was going to meet Lucifer when she burst into that church. Whatever she meant by "first son", the best thing is to wait and see (as difficult as that may sound) what the facts are. Maybe a retcon, maybe not. Don't know. Kajune (talk) 10:58, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

NoxiousDonny (talk) 15:52, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

One line from Amara does not erase the multiple times it is brought up in season 5. Please leave it as Lucifer is the younger brother. I wish we could get some comfirmation somehow, on twitter maybe. For now it is simply another retcon.

''Lucifer to Sam: I was a son. A brother, like you. A younger brother. And I had an older brother who I loved. SeraphLucifer (talk) 17:14, April 7, 2016 (UTC)SeraphLucifer''

If only we had some sort of confirmation of this retcon... like a statement from a character in the series who's an authority on the subject, seeing as how she was there when it happened. Unfortunately, all we have is God's older sister.

Orion ( T - B -C) 19:16, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

I think you need a re-watch of season 5, friend. I think... you know Lucifer, Michael and Gabriel, would know best. Lucifer outright says Michael is his older brother. Michael calls Lucifer little brother. Also remember how Gabriel compares Dean to Michael (the other brother) and Sam to Lucifer (the little brother).

Seriously, you all need to look up "retcon". It's a change in the established continuity. That's all this is.

Orion ( T - B -C) 19:49, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

"First son" need not mean "first born/made son". First ministers are not necessarily the eldest. It might simply be a (redundant) reference to his status as favourite and "most trusted lieutenant".

You're seriously comparing a position in government to this? If Amara wanted to call Lucifer God's favorite son, she would have. Proof: she did. There were two different statements. One, Lucifer is God's favorite. Two, Lucifer is God's first son.

Edit War
Can we please STOP THE EDIT WAR about who's the older brother and come to some kind of consensus??? Because this is not how editing should be done!!!--WarGrowlmon18 (talk) 20:27, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

Amara said he was the first son of God. There's no consensus required for that. It's like asking for consensus on whether or not Hands of God were touched by God. It was established on the show (in this case, as a retcon). There is literally no reason (except refusal to accept a retcon) for this page to say otherwise.

Orion ( T - B -C) 20:40, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Or, or, or - you could wait and actually see instead of jumping the gun like a reliable source of information would do. This is big information that you're changing on your site that's known to be the first stop for SPN information. Try actually waiting and seeing instead of jumping the gun and giving people the wrong ideas. No one accepts the retcon because it's information we need proven first.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">You'd swear that people would learn how this process works from their high school classes. Kashiki (talk) 22:45, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

<p style="font-weight:normal;">I guess Blaziken skipped that day. We have the word of Amara, y'know, the main villain and I don't know about you guys but I wouldn't take her word as truth just because of one sentence that has no one else commenting on it one way or the other. We need someone to lock the page because of Blaze Kaestal (talk) 08:55, April 8, 2016 (UTC)

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Take two seconds to think about what you're saying. Amara was lying... to Lucifer? The one guy who'd actually know if he was or wasn't God's first son? There was nobody else around except him. The reliable source is God's own sister, who was there at the beginning and would know better than anyone short of God himself.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> Orion ( T - B -C) 08:57, April 8, 2016 (UTC)

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Ugh... until we have more than one person comment on that claim don't start an edit war, if we get someone else to confirm it then sure go for it.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">You started an edit war over the main villain's words, I wouldn't take anything a main villain says as irrefutable truth. Kaestal (talk) 09:01, April 8, 2016 (UTC)
