Lucifer Morningstar is a fictional character and the protagonist of the TV series Lucifer. He is portrayed by Tom Ellis.[1] Neil Gaiman's Lucifer was partly inspired by David Bowie, but the show's creators decided against trying to mimic Bowie.[2] Tom Ellis saw the character as a sort of Oscar Wilde or Noël Coward character "with added rock and roll spirit", approaching his portrayal as if he were the "lovechild of Noël Coward and Mick Jagger, with a dash of British actor Terry-Thomas".[3]

Lucifer is a fallen angel who, after leading an unsuccessful rebellion against Heaven, was banished by God to serve as Lord of Hell. Lucifer is shown to hold a deep resentment towards his father for that, as well as his mother for doing nothing.[4] In 2011, Lucifer became bored with his life, so he abdicated his throne and moved to Los Angeles to run his own high-end nightclub called "Lux" for the next five years;[5] during which time he was assisted by John Constantine in retrieving Mazikeen from Hell so she could continue serving as his bodyguard. Lucifer would later repay this debt by helping Constantine and his allies recover Oliver Queen's soul from Purgatory.[6] After five years, Lucifer became a civilian consultant for the Los Angeles Police Department in the pilot episode, while still running his nightclub.[7]

Lucifer is very open about his identity as the Devil, always telling people who he is. However, very few take this seriously unless he lets them see his "Devil Face" – i.e., his true demonic appearance – which he usually does to frighten evildoers. Lucifer is highly sexual (he is, in fact, bisexual[8]) and is irresistible to most people.

As a fallen angel, Lucifer possesses several supernatural traits and abilities. He has superhuman strength, enough to throw a grown man several yards or hold an accelerating car still (if he is adequately braced).[9] Lucifer is immortal and his human body is highly durable; he can withstand gunfire [7] or walk through a burning building[10] without harm. He can, however, be injured by Mazikeen's mystical karambits[11][12] or the Sword of Azrael,[13] which all celestial beings are vulnerable to.[14][12] Lucifer originally had a pair of angelic wings, which he had severed by Maze when he arrived in Los Angeles.[5] These wings grew back at the end of season two.[15][16] The wings are as durable as Lucifer's body; they can resist gunfire and, when flapped, can generate a wind strong enough to knock down a human.[17] Lucifer also possesses the supernatural ability to make people tell him their hidden desires by simply making eye contact and asking them. It is neither hypnosis nor telepathy, and is dependent-upon whenever the person it is being used-upon is a simple or complex person (the more complex or complicated a person is, the more they can resist, and the more time and effort is needed to overcome their resistance), and only Chloe Decker has been shown to be immune to the effect.[7]

Lucifer's principal weakness is that he becomes vulnerable to harm whenever Chloe Decker is close to him or in the immediate vicinity.[18][19] If he is mortally injured when Chloe is nearby, he can die just like any other human.[14] This effect even renders Lucifer susceptible to minor cuts[10] or painfully stubbing his toe.[11] Once Chloe is far enough away from him, Lucifer's body regains its durability.[20] However, in the pilot episode, he was still invulnerable near Chloe, not manifesting until after a moment of emotional vulnerability, where Chloe sees the scars on Lucifer's back, where his wings were.[7] Chloe's presence does not deprive Lucifer of any of his other supernatural traits, such as his strength.[21] This suggests that Lucifer's physical vulnerability is a manifestation of his emotional vulnerability towards Chloe.

Lucifer is shown to have a complicated relationship with his family. During season 1, his brother Amenadiel tries to force him to return to his hell duties, but he steadfastly refuses to comply with his father's wishes. When the container holding his wings was stolen in the episode "Favorite Son",[22] Lucifer recovers them only to set them on fire as a sign of his rebellion against God's wishes. However, in the season finale, Lucifer prays to God to save Chloe's life after he is shot, willing to do anything in exchange. God gives him a vision: Lucifer's mother has escaped Hell and it is his duty to bring her back.[14][23] Season 2 shows his complicated relationship with his mother. While he initially intends to help her return to Heaven (so she and his father will destroy each other), he finally decides to send her to another universe, where she could create her own world free from God's influence.[15][16] Also, in season 2's finale, his wings were restored,[15][16] but he tries severing them again in season 3, since he sees them as God's trying to impose his will on him. As the wings keep regrowing every time he cuts them, he finally resigns himself to them.

On Earth, Lucifer creates a connection with Detective Chloe Decker, who's immune to his abilities. In the first-season episode "Manly Whatnots",[24] he encourages Chloe to shoot him so she would have proof he is the Devil, but her bullet wounds him and Lucifer discovers he becomes vulnerable to physical harm when she's around. His growing feelings for her confuse him at first until he finally accepts he's in love with her, though he's unable to articulate his feelings. After Chloe kisses him in season 2 episode "Stewardess Interruptus",[25] he discovers she is the result of a miracle done by Amenadiel on God's orders[20][26][27] and pushes her away for her own good.

In season 3, he has to deal with the new precinct lieutenant, Marcus Pierce. When he discovers Pierce is Cain[28][29][30] the first murderer, he agrees to help him find a way to die to annoy his father,[31][32] but backs off after Chloe is in danger.[33] He also struggles with his feelings for her when she starts dating Pierce,[34] and his inability to express them. He also loses his "Devil Face" mid-season. In the penultimate episode, "Quintessential Deckerstar", Lucifer and Chloe kiss again after he confesses his feelings for her.[35] However, this happens just before he kills Cain and recovers his true "Devil Face", which Chloe finally sees in the season finale.[35][17][36]

In season 4, Lucifer has to deal with the aftermath of Chloe finally learning the truth and the return of Eve, a former lover of his. Meanwhile, Amenadiel learns that Linda is pregnant with their half angel son. Due to Chloe's betrayal,[37] Lucifer resumes his relationship with Eve, who claims to be in love with him and accepts him for who he is.[38] As the season progresses, Lucifer's growing hatred of himself cause his angel wings to become demon wings[21] and he gains a more demonic alternate form. At the same time, a priest, Father Kinley, reveals a prophecy that Lucifer and his first love will unleash evil upon the Earth.[21] Meanwhile, with Eve at his side urging him on, Lucifer goes back to his old habits, going as far as brutally crippling a criminal as punishment.[39] But he later realizes he doesn't like who he is around Eve and breaks up with her.[40]

In the season finale, after Eve kills Kinley and summons the demon Dromos into his body, Lucifer has to rescue his nephew Charlie, Linda and Amenadiel's newborn son, scaring the demons into returning to Hell using his full demonic form before Chloe. Chloe finally accepts Lucifer completely, even after seeing his demonic form and admits her love for him. However, Lucifer decides that he must return to Hell to keep the demons in line, recognizing that Chloe was his true first love all along, not Eve. After a tearful goodbye and last kiss with Chloe, Lucifer uses his wings, angelic white once again, to return to his throne in Hell.[41]

In season 5, Lucifer returns from Hell to confront his twin brother Michael, who attempts to steal his identity, leaving Amenadiel in his place. Later he learns from Amenadiel that God relieved him from his duties as the guardian of Hell and moves forward with his relationship with Chloe.

Chloe Decker is a LAPD homicide detective and Lucifer's partner. She is portrayed by Lauren German.[42]

She solves crimes with Lucifer after he takes an interest in her because she appears immune to his abilities. She on her part finds his "Lucifer-ness" both intriguing and hard to deal with. Due to an earlier incident concerning a cop shooting, she was ostracized by her fellow officers, resulting in her being partnered with Lucifer as her civilian consultant.[7] Though she is against it at first, she warms up to him and agrees that his unconventional ways are useful, even if his personality often puts her nerves on edge. Lucifer frequently addresses her as "Detective" rather than by name.

In season 1, Chloe is separated from her husband, Dan, also an LAPD detective, with whom she has a daughter, Trixie. After an attempt to get back together was sabotaged by Malcolm, they finally decide to divorce, though they remain good friends. Her father, John Decker, was a LAPD officer killed in the line of duty.[43] Chloe's widowed mother Penelope is an actress, as was Chloe herself, briefly. However, her only movie, Hot Tub High School, is now a source of embarrassment for her, as she had topless scenes in it. The events of season 2 reveal that Penelope was barren and Chloe's conception was the result of a miracle, performed by God with assistance from Amenadiel.[44][26]

Though she initially denied any possibility of ever sleeping with Lucifer, despite his attempts at seduction, in the season 2 episode "Stewardess Interruptus", she realizes he has come to care for her as more than just a conquest and she kisses him.[25] However, after Lucifer discovers the truth about her birth, he quickly backpedals, believing he's protecting her. During season 3, she finds herself the object of affection of both Lucifer and Lt. Pierce. Though she becomes briefly engaged to the latter,[45] she breaks it up[46][47] and kisses Lucifer again in the penultimate episode, "Quintessential Deckerstar", after he finally confesses his feelings for her.[35]

Chloe is highly skeptical of Lucifer's claims to be the Devil, but she's intrigued by the things she has seen him do, for which she hasn't been able to find a logical explanation. In season 2's premiere, she tried to analyze a sample of Lucifer's blood to find out the truth, which forced Amenadiel to throw her off the trail by fabricating a plausible explanation for Lucifer's abilities.[48][4] However, in the Season 3 finale, Chloe sees Lucifer's true face and finally realizes his claims were true.[17][36]

The Season 4 premiere reveals that, following the revelation, Chloe took Trixie on a month-long trip to Italy. In Rome, she encountered Father Kinley, who counseled her that the best for Earth and Lucifer was for him to return to Hell.[9][49] But soon Chloe realized Lucifer really had changed from the church's vision of him and decided not to go through with the plan. However, Father Kinley tried to cause a row between Chloe and Lucifer.[10] Though Kinley was arrested, Lucifer was hurt by Chloe's betrayal.[37] The two eventually make up but by the end of Season 4, they part ways again when Lucifer returns to Hell to keep the demons at bay.

In season 5, after Lucifer returns from hell, Chloe resumes her relationship with Lucifer, which ends up strained once she learns from Michael that she was created by God as a gift to him, but she eventually comes to accept it and the two become lovers.

Daniel "Dan" Espinoza

Kevin Alejandro

Detective Daniel "Dan" Espinoza is portrayed by Kevin Alejandro. He replaced Nicholas Gonzalez, who portrayed the character in the pilot.[50]

An LAPD homicide detective and Chloe's ex-husband, he dislikes Lucifer's friendship with Chloe and Trixie, but as time passes Dan and Lucifer occasionally find common ground. Lucifer repeatedly calls him "Detective Douche". Originally Chloe's superior on the force, Dan was suspended due to the events of the Malcolm Graham case (season 1), then reinstated with a demotion to Detective.

In season 2, he starts a complicated affair/relationship with Charlotte Richards, unaware that she's been possessed by Lucifer's mother. After Lucifer sends her to another universe and the real Charlotte resuscitates, Dan is hurt because she doesn't remember him, but they eventually began dating. They sleep together in the episode "Quintessential Deckerstar",[35] but Charlotte is killed that night protecting a weakened Amenadiel from Pierce. In the finale, he's the one who finds Charlotte's files on Pierce that help them discover he's the assassin.[51]

Amenadiel

D. B. Woodside

Amenadiel Firstborn, portrayed by D. B. Woodside,[52] is an angel, Lucifer's older brother, and the eldest of all their siblings. His physical powers are similar to Lucifer's, and he can also stop time. He arrives in Los Angeles to encourage Lucifer to go back to Hell, and failing that, he attempts to force Lucifer back in different ways. He grows closer to Lucifer through the seasons, through various circumstances. Like his brother, Lucifer, Amenadiel has more than one name ("Firstborn" was revealed to be one of them in season 2[12]).

Unlike Lucifer, Amenadiel has always followed God's orders, but comes to question his life-choices as events on Earth make him lose power and his wings in season 2, sending him into a personal crisis where he tries to find himself. Amenadiel learns the necklace given to him by his father was the key to the Flaming Sword, which was entrusted to his cherished son, indicating that he himself is God's favorite angel and not Lucifer as he had always believed. At the end of the third season, Amenadiel regains his wings after witnessing Charlotte's death and takes her soul to heaven.[35]

In season 4, it is revealed that Amenadiel's relationship with Linda Martin resulted in her becoming pregnant with their Nephilim son.[53][54] Amenadiel struggles to protect his child, whom they name Charlie in honor of Charlotte,[55] and fights with whether or not to take Charlie and raise him in Heaven. In the season finale, Charlie is kidnapped by demons who want to raise him to replace Lucifer as the King of Hell. After rescuing him with help from Lucifer, Chloe, Maze and Eve, Amenadiel finally decides to raise him on Earth with Linda.[41]

Mazikeen "Maze" Smith

Lesley-Ann Brandt

Mazikeen of the Lilim, "Maze" for short, is portrayed by Lesley-Ann Brandt.[56][57] She is a demon, as well as a confidante and devoted ally of Lucifer Morningstar. She served as his head torturer, followed him from Hell to Los Angeles with the assistance of John Constantine,[6] and acted as a bartender and bodyguard at Lucifer's club. In season 2, Maze looks for a new direction on Earth and becomes a bounty hunter using the name Mazikeen Smith, having found something that feels right to her.

Maze also becomes Chloe's roommate and befriends Chloe's daughter Trixie, but the friendship was strained in season 3 when, during a quarrel with Dan, Maze blurted out she was tired of his "stupid little brat", unaware that a heartbroken Trixie overheard her. Feeling bad about it, Maze apologies in season 4's premiere and Trixie forgives her.[9][58]

In Season 3, she turns against Lucifer when he refuses to send her back to Hell, but ultimately returns to his side.

In season 4, due to Chloe's reaction to learning the truth about Lucifer, Maze moves out her house and in with Linda, decided to be the best aunt for Linda and Amenadiel's child.[53] Mazikeen is also revealed to be the daughter of Lilith, Adam's ex-wife.[39]

In season 5, Maze turns against Lucifer once more after she learns that he kept her mother's fate a secret from her. After her mother's death, Maze also became obscessed with obtaining a soul, hoping that it could make her live a fulfilling life, to the point of siding with Michael against Lucifer in hopes of gaining one.

Beatrice "Trixie" Espinoza

Trixie is portrayed by Scarlett Estevez.[59]

Chloe and Dan's seven-year-old (at the start of the series) daughter, who befriends Lucifer and Mazikeen. Trixie takes advice from both Maze and Lucifer, while also balancing what her parents try teaching her.

Dr. Linda Martin

Rachael Harris

Dr. Linda Martin is portrayed by Rachael Harris.[52]

Lucifer's Stanford-educated psychotherapist, who initially accepts "payments" from him in the form of sex. Like almost everyone else, Dr. Martin does not take what Lucifer says at face value, and at first believes that Lucifer is using a religious metaphor to describe himself and his dysfunctional family relationships, until he reveals his true self in season 2, which leaves her visibly shaken.[60][61][43] Prior to this, her attempts to help Lucifer solve his emotional and personal problems have limited success, since she does not accept what he tells her as the truth, and because Lucifer himself has a tendency to misunderstand or misapply her advice. Eventually, Dr. Martin becomes part of Lucifer's circle of friends as well as his therapist.

In season 3, her friendship with Amenadiel turns into a love-affair, which angers his previous lover Mazikeen, who has become Linda's friend.

In season 4, she finds out she's pregnant with Amenadiel's half-angel child.[53][54] Linda and Amenadiel name their son Charlie in honor of Charlotte.[55]

Malcolm Graham

Kevin Rankin

Detective Malcolm Graham is portrayed by Kevin Rankin[62]

Malcolm is a police officer who was shot prior to the beginning of the series. Chloe Decker witnessed the shooting, which occurred while Malcolm was secretly meeting with a suspected criminal. After the shooting, Malcolm was left in a coma. He briefly died but was then brought back from hell by Amenadiel to kill Lucifer, but Lucifer persuaded Malcolm to not kill him, after revealing that Amenadiel would be unable to kill Malcolm. Malcolm later kills Lucifer at the end of season one, though Lucifer is brought back to life by God. Chloe shortly after kills Malcolm.

"Mum" / Goddess

Tricia Helfer

Lucifer and Amenadiel's mother and exiled wife of God, who has escaped her prison in Hell.[14][23] She is described as "the goddess of all creation", but her name and exact nature remain unrevealed. Lucifer simply calls her "Mum". She is rumored to have caused plagues and floods before her imprisonment, which she doesn't deny, and seeks revenge on her ex-husband. On Earth, her soul occupies the dead body of Charlotte Richards (portrayed by Tricia Helfer), a murdered lawyer, and she struggles with a human world she doesn't like or understand, as well as the ups and downs of living as a human. She starts a complicated relationship with Dan Espinoza.[63]

At the end of season 2, she leaves the universe, prompted by Lucifer to create her own world.[15][16]

Charlotte Richards

Portrayed by Tricia Helfer, murdered hellbound lawyer Charlotte Richards is resurrected by the act of "Mum" having abandoned her human body, which in turn allows her to remember her time in hell.[64] As a result, she doesn't understand why she's separated from her husband and why her children don't want to see her. Scared into trying to be a better person, Charlotte begins working for the DA's office in season 3.[65] Charlotte thinks she's crazy as another result of going to Hell. Lucifer and Amenadiel eventually tell Charlotte about Mum taking over her body,[34] and reveal divinity to her. At the end of the season, she dies after jumping in front of a bullet meant for Amenadiel, who takes her soul to heaven.[35][63]

Ella Lopez

Aimee Garcia

Ella Lopez is portrayed by Aimee Garcia since season 2.[66]

She is a forensic scientist for the LAPD who helps Chloe and Lucifer with their cases, usually being the one conducting examinations on crime scenes and analyzing them afterward. She hails from Detroit, has four brothers, and claims to have a somewhat criminal past, having stolen cars. This is reflected in the season 3 bonus episode "Once Upon a Time", set in an alternate universe, where she is a criminal carjacker and mechanic.[67] She also knows how to defuse bombs, which she successfully did to save everyone's lives in the season 4 episode "Expire Erect".[38] She is known for being unceasingly perky and talkative, which has led Pierce as her superior to snap at her in public on one occasion, leaving her devastated. After a pep talk from Charlotte, she learns to stand up for herself and berates Pierce, who apologizes to her. Nevertheless, Chloe and the rest of their colleagues wholeheartedly accept Ella for who she is.

Ella has a devout Catholic faith and wears a crucifix, leading both Lucifer and Chloe to ask questions about her faith. She has a nun aunt, who taught her that to doubt things were important, and so Ella believes questioning things, looking at things from different angles, makes her a better scientist. After Charlotte's murder, Ella's faith is severely shaken and for a time she stops believing in God completely, concluding that humans can rely only on themselves and are responsible for good and evil. However, feeling that she has had a void in her life, by the end of season 4, she regains her faith completely.

Two of her brothers have already been seen on the show. On the season 2 episode "A Good Day to Die", Ella goes to her brother Ricardo for a rare chemical they need, and berates him for ghosting her due to his illegal dealings. On the season 3 episode "My Brother's Keeper", Ella's older brother Jay, a diamond authenticator, gets mixed in a murder involving stolen diamonds, but is ultimately innocent.

In season 4, Ella begins a relationship with Dan, and convinces him to let go of his anger and hatred after Charlotte's death, at the same time she regains her faith.

The season 3 bonus episode "Boo Normal" reveals that Ella was in a near-fatal car accident at the age of eight, leading Azrael, the Angel of Death and one of Lucifer's sisters, to appear to Ella as a ghost named Rae-Rae and befriend her; Lucifer makes the connection after Ella uses a catchphrase Azrael often uses. She was behind Ella moving to Los Angeles, intentionally putting her in Lucifer's circle, knowing that he'd look out for Ella better than her Lopez family relations, who, according to Azrael, don't treat Ella very well, even though Ella insists that they are always there for each other as family.[68]

Cain / Marcus Pierce

Tom Welling

Marcus Pierce, portrayed by Tom Welling,[69] is a highly respected police lieutenant who becomes the new head of the precinct in season 3, overseeing the work of Chloe, Dan, and Ella at the precinct. He is revealed to be not just leading a double life as the highly feared crime lord "the Sinnerman", but also being the immortal Cain, the world's first murderer, condemned to wander the Earth forever.[28][30][29] Cain briefly allies with Lucifer in an attempt to make himself mortal,[31] but they fall out as they compete over Chloe's affections, and Lucifer's concerns for Chloe's safety. He asks Chloe to marry him just seconds before Lucifer was going to confess his feelings to her,[45] but she breaks the engagement soon after.[46] Pierce kills Charlotte in the 23rd episode of season 3, and is finally killed by Lucifer in the final episode after an attempt to ambush him and kill Chloe.[17]

Eve

Inbar Lavi

Eve, portrayed by Inbar Lavi, is the world's first female human, Cain's mother and former lover of Lucifer who appears in season 4.[70] She kills Father Kinley who is then possessed by a demon named Dromos, in an attempt to get Lucifer to come to Hell to rule again as king so she can be with him again. She later repents and helps them rescue Charlie.[41]

Michael Demiurgos

Michael Demiurgos is Lucifer's twin brother who is also portrayed by Tom Ellis. He makes his first appearance in season 5, taking over his brother's identity after Lucifer returns to Hell. He is a dark-winged angel[71] Michael is a mirror image of Lucifer, left handed instead of right, prefers clear liquor to brown, has black wings instead of white, and taps into fears rather than desires.[72]

Lilith / Lily Rose

Lilith is Mazikeen's mother who is also portrayed by Lesley-Ann Brandt, and L. Scott Caldwell in an elderly capacity. She makes her first appearance at the end of episode 4, in season 5, having grown elderly (after having relinquished her immortality in an attempt to find purpose). Later, at the end of episode 5, it is revealed that she'd just died, shortly after Maze's first visit (co-inciding with Amenadiel's return from Hell, having been relieved of his duties there, filling-in for Lucifer), and descending into Hell, after which point God declares to Amenadiel that Hell "no-longer needs a warden",[71] but leaving Maze with unresolved issues. Lilith can tame the "beasts of the night" and force them into submission, leading to her banishment from the Garden of Eden, prior-to-and-necessitating the creation of Eve. Before leaving, Lilith took a lone black stone from it to serve as a reminder that she doesn't need Adam or God.[73] According to Maze, Lilith was already 12,000-years-old when she gave birth to her and the rest of the Lilim (including Dromos and Squee).

"Dad" / God

Portrayed by Dennis Haysbert.[74] The creator of the world and father of all angels, including Lucifer and Amenadiel. Previously appeared as a narrating voice portrayed by Neil Gaiman, he appears fully to stop the fight between Lucifer, Amenadiel and Michael in Season 5's mid-season ending.

Other angels

Uriel

Portrayed by Michael Imperioli,[75] Uriel came down to Earth to kill his mother with Azrael's blade in the season 2 episode "Weaponizer".[12] He threatened Lucifer that he would kill Chloe if he didn't turn their mother over to him, finally forcing Lucifer to kill him. His special ability was to foresee and manipulate patterns of behavior and probability.

Later, when Lucifer goes to Hell to find a cure for Chloe's poisoning, it is revealed that the murder of Uriel is Lucifer's own hell loop.[76][77]

Azrael

Portrayed by Charlyne Yi,[78] she is Lucifer and Amenadiel's sister and the Angel of Death. She is mentioned in season 2, but doesn't appear until season 3 episode "Boo Normal", when it is revealed she befriended eight-years-old Ella after a car accident, and occasionally met with her under the guise of being a ghost. She pushed Ella to move to Los Angeles, so she could meet Lucifer. She wanted her favorite human and favorite brother to be able to turn to each other because she couldn't be there for them. Since the move, Ella had not encountered Azrael for five years.[68]

Remiel

Remiel, a Gregori, portrayed by Vinessa Vidotto starting in season 4,[79] and mentioned in passing, in season 5, episode 2, by Michael. Another sister of Lucifer and Amenadiel, though she is closer to Amenadiel (he calls her "Remmy", as does Michael), and looks down upon Lucifer ("Our brother, Lucifer, is -what do they call it here?- a slut"), though, according to Michael, her opinion of Lucifer has risen when news to Heaven that Lucifer had returned to Hell of his own Free Will ("What a Sacrifice"). When Amenadiel first meets her down on Earth, he asks her if "...the Silver City run out of stags to hunt? You need a break from Castiel's singing? Or do you just miss your big bro?" which alludes that Remiel shares similar characteristics with Artemis/Diana from Classical Greco-Roman mythology, as an avid hunter.

She comes to Earth after having sensed a new celestial being about to be born. She initially assumes Lucifer to be the father of the child ("There was bound to be a child eventually, 'cause of all of the meaningless sexual encounters"), and wants to take the child to be raised in The Silver City, proposing to simply just 'cut' the baby out of its mother, Linda, without any consideration for her. After having tried to distract her from her goal by leading her on a wild goose chase (staking out Lux, etc.), Amenadiel accidentally lets slip that he is the one who fathered the as-yet unborn celestial, and has to face Remiel in single combat. After Amenadiel fairly defeats Remiel, she relents on taking the child, but continues to insist that it will be a bad idea to keep the child in the Human world.

Kinley is killed by Eve and subsequently possessed by the demon Dromos who wants to bring Lucifer back to hell. When Lucifer turns down his request, he kidnaps Linda and Amenadiel's son Charlie to raise him to replace Lucifer on hell's throne, since only an angel can rule there.[41]
