Character Information

Character: Lucian

Age: Undetermined, though it is over 600 years

Birthday: Unknown

Personality:
Lucian for the current century is fairly old fashioned, however that is due to the era in which he lived and grew to his prime. Lucian is a firm believer in manners, and in keeping one’s self composed rather than stooping to a lower nature. He his quickly offended and angered when anyone acts out with any type of animalistic tendencies, insisting that humans should not act in such a way. To him, anything that can think and feel is equally deserving of life and basic rights, and he despises both arrogance and inequality. He's deeply devoted to his allies and makes a fine leader when the situation calls for one-- his charisma and his amiable nature make him well-liked by others. He cares deeply for those he views as his brothers and will never give an order that he's not prepared to follow himself.
Politeness aside, he's not above using violence as an equalizing factor, though. Lucian doesn't flinch a bit at bloodshed and can be quite merciless when the situation calls for it. When he loses his temper, he's a terrifying force to be reckoned with. He is single minded once he is focused on a goal, no matter how difficult the task or what kind of danger it will involve. However, despite his past he does not hold any grudge against vampires; but rather against certain ones such as Viktor and those who try to kill him and his kind simply because of what they are.

History
Lucian was born a slave to an unknown captive werewolf. Born in human form, Lucian's Vampire owner Viktor realized that Lucian was the first of his kind; a second generation Lycan and raised him to produce tamer Lycans. First generation werewolves do not change back into human form unless by death and were rampaging monsters. He was branded with Viktor's mark and put into slavery under one of Viktor's early reigns.

At the time of Lucian's birth Lycans were slaves to the Vampires, acting as their guardians during the daylight hours. In return, the vampires locked them up at night, thus ensuring the survival of both bloodlines by not alerting the humans to their presence. Lucian's status within the Lycan slaves was a blacksmith, building weapons and shoeing horses for the vampires. He was continuously at odds with the slave masters (vampires), as he tried to protect his clan. He met Raze, the newly turned Lycan, and the two became close friends.

Lucian met Sonja, the daughter of Viktor when they were teenagers, and the two began an affair after they reached their adulthoods, which led to a secret marriage and Sonja's pregnancy. The only people who were aware of their affair before Viktor's discovery were Andreas Tanis, a vampire archivist who swore his silence of their secrecy and would aid Lucian's escape in exchange of Sonja's place within the Council, and Luka, a vampire servant and friend of Sonja. The plan was a success, but led Viktor to suspect Sonja of aiding Lucian which eventually led to the discovery of their affair. After Lucian was captured during a failed attempt to rescue Sonja, Viktor, who feared the blending of the bloodlines that Sonja's pregnancy entailed, had them both imprisoned. He then had Sonja tied to a stake, exposing her to the sun and burning her alive, forcing Lucian to watch. When night fell, the full moon rose and shone down on Lucian, allowing him to change into Lycan form and escape before Viktor could kill him. Before escaping he managed to take Sonja's pendant with him, the sole memento he would ever have of the love of his life. However, he was unable to escape Viktor's fortress's walls, instead being overwhelmed by Death Dealers. Lucian gave a loud cry and feral werewolves responded, attacking the castle and overrunning the vampires. Raze, along with both the first and second generations Lycans, arrive to aid the Lycan leader. Quickly recovered from his injuries, and mysteriously gaining a pair of leather pants and jacket (these are given to him by Raze), Lucian engages in a battle with his wife's father, intending to avenge Sonja and his unborn child. Despite the vampire elder being more powerful, Lucian used the vampire's aversion to sunlight to his advantage and then impales his sword through the vampire's mouth. Viktor fell to a river below but survived because of his regenerative capability as a Vampire Elder. The Lycans took over the vampires' stronghold in the absence of Viktor and the Vampire Council. Lucian knew that despite their victory, some of the vampire elders had survived and the vampire coven would rise again. His war was not over. Lucian later buried Sonja's remains from the chamber.

Lucian became known as the "most feared and ruthless leader ever to rule the Lycan clan", according to the lore spread throughout the vampire covens. Lucian had been a terrible and dangerous Lycan war lord, and the major instigator of the war between the species. Vampiric lore says that he began the war himself almost a millennium ago. However, by the time the movie began, it was believed that Lucian's threat was over, and the Lycan himself was dead. According to the historical record The Fall of Lucian and His Army, written by Andreas Tanis: "Of the scores of brave souls who entered Lucian's fortress, a single vampire survived; Kraven, who was richly rewarded for not only setting the great blaze, but for returning with evidence of the Lycan master's demise: the branded skin, cut from Lucian's very arm."

The quotation tells of an incident in 1409, where a brave team of Death Dealers attacked Lucian's stronghold, and a great battle ensued. When the vampires arrived, they were met by a force of Lycans much greater than they had expected. The Death Dealers were easily slaughtered. Kraven, a former Death Dealer, survived because he hid in fear of being killed during the battle. When Lucian found him, he offered him a deal: life, glory, and eventual leadership of both great covens, in return for claiming that Lucian was dead. As Kraven fled back to Ordoghaz, Lucian burned his fortress to the ground, and escaped into the night.

What he was really doing this time was looking for the third branch of the Corvinus family line. A human descendant from the first immortal, which would allow for Lucian to combine the two bloodlines of vampires and lycans; something that would have occured with the birth of his and Sonja's child had she not been executed by her father Viktor. His search eventually leads him to Michael Corvin, and begins the ending of his long battle with Viktor. By the time it is over, his alliance with Kraven and the pact with the vampire is broken as Kraven finally lives up to the task he was credited with for centuries killing Lucian. However, Lucian was able to still accomplish his goal as Selene bites Michael combining the two bloodlines.
