Backstory
Born July 15th 2014, the last of the legitimate children between George and his actual wife, Eleanor before she passed two years later. Even though his father would never talk about it, later in his life his brothers swore up and down that Lucifer was the only intended Break child as an attempt to wipe any history of cheating from George's past. Lucifer didn't remember his mom very well. He remembered a vague figure of a woman caring for him, but never anything specific.

For the majority of his childhood, he lived at the Break manor and would also be surrounded by boys, especially some that seem darker than the others. He wasn't very happy as a child. His dad was strict, acted like he was the man of the house, the war captain, whatever was in his controlling mindset.

It seemed like George expected a lot from Lucifer, perfection with every stroke of his pencil on the parchment, perfection with the words articulated from his mouth. It was like he didn't want to raise another child that couldn't live up to his standards again.

Lucifer wasn't soft, nor was he a nerd. He was sharp and observant, but he was also bottled up emotionally and when he had to be cruel, as kids can be, he did it for efficiency, not so much for fun.

He was taught at home by a hired private tutor. He was also very strict and required things to be done meticulously, to Lucifer's distaste. No pieces of paper were free from the crumpling of dissatisfaction and the binning.

Lucifer did have a bit of a life, yes. Every so often, his brothers would feel a bit of pity for him and play with him outside a bit- even teaching him how to use a broom. Of course, Lucifer was given the worst broom owned in the house that, for some reason, liked to misbehave and launch him into the manor. They would play rugby, which Lucifer greatly enjoyed, football and american football, as well as some other sports that seemed particularly muggle. They may have been a Pureblooded family, but at least they had muggle sport balls or materials for games that required running and shooting balls into hoops or goal posts. Otherwise, Lucifer was expected to just ride around on a broom and play tag or do his homework.

Fun was important. But so was making his dad happy.

First Instance of Magic
April 13th 2025, he got so mad with the hired tutor constantly throwing away his work and telling him it wasn't good enough, that he snapped and when he did so, the windows in that room shattered with his quill, which was in the near-empty inkwell, floating. Lucifer may have snapped, but his attention slowly turned towards the sound of glass breaking and clinking onto the ground, to the quill, and he murmured. What he was going to yell about slipped from his mind as he realized he did something. He might be a real part of the family, not a squib.

Personality
Lucifer was not soft, nor a nerd. He is sharp and observant. He is bottled up, emotionally, and he is cruel when necessary. Though, he does have a line. If you cross it, he's probably going to learn Flipendo just to flip you until you leave him alone. He was raised under pressure, and feels more compelled to do things the right way because of the conditioning his father and the tutor imposed on him. He is competent, but sometimes if someone crosses the line or he finally snaps, this competence may not be seen at all. He's not rebellious nor obedient either.

Appearance
Lucifer has a baby face, soft cheeks and jaws. His hair is a dark brown that can be interpreted as black depending on the lighting. He tries to keep his hair short and tidy because George likes to ensure that his sons seem presentable. If the hair grows out just a little, it's at the very most a little tousled, not wild.

Lucifer is also shorter than the average children his age, compact in his build but slightly athletic, one could just say 'simply a normal child with exercise'. He always tries to ensure that his clothes are neat, whether chosen by him or not, and doesn't bother to smile unless there's a reason.

Parseltongue (501/500)
Out back in the garden, way back when he was just a tad- a little- boy, he would sit and concentrate on the trees, on the dirt, write a few mathematical scenarios and answer them in the top soil and unearth a few buried seeds here and there. But that one pivotal moment that stopped him, and scared him so bad, from going out into the garden for the next week was due to a snake that slithered up behind him. He let out a bloodcurdling scream.

Before he ran inside, as he was getting up, he heard something that seemed fairly comprehensive, like he understood what was said. Something about 'don't be afraid'. Well, it'd be too late, because he ran inside. He didn't think too much about it, maybe it was a prank from his brothers.

Lucifer, as he got older, would slowly encounter more snakes and realize that what he heard was not what others heard. His family didn't hear the same things he did- like he understood the language- as they only heard hissing.

When he was nine, he realized this interest in snakes was starting to pick up, like it was a monumental moment that would mean something. He asked his dad, George, if he could get a pet snake. It would stay in a tank (75 gallon) in his room when Lucifer wasn't there, but if he was in the room, the snake could be free as long as the door was shut.

At that age, when he got his snake, a ball python, he would talk to it whenever he felt lonely, well. One day, Ozzy walked in with his girlfriend at the time and asked him why he was hissing. Lucifer didn't think he was hissing, he thought he was actually speaking in English. Odd. This question would be asked again by another brother then finally by the father. After those weird questions, Lucifer had wondered what was wrong with him.

George didn't bother to provide any sort of consolation, only handed him a book with family members in it, and pointed at one of the family's kept secret out of shame. Lucifer's Great Grandfather, Jefferson Barkley and Jefferson's son, George's father, Maddox Barkley, were Parseltongue, but at the time, they didn't understand why he was communicating with snakes, so they had isolated them and thought they were insane and unwell for the hallucinations, so when they were a child, they were forbidden from seeing snakes, talking to snakes, dreaming about snakes, whatever.

George would tell this story once and never repeat it again, but he was told this because he didn't want his son to think that he was pure rubbish and was somehow possessed or insane, because he wasn't. It was something even his brothers didn't know about until this genetic trait finally resurfaced after skipping George and his brothers.

It may be a feared trait, but it didn't seem to faze his family, it was.. just another day for them.

She's the type of person that kinda scowls when you say Hi or Good Morning to her. She never greets anyone, it's just straight to whatever point she wants to make.

Last week I walked in and the very first thing she said to me was, "did you return your key, because it's missing"

Didn't really need that first thing in the morning that day

She sounds like a treat to work with!

I'd say, if it's you to smile and say good morning, then do it with extra sweetness!

I do hope the key isn't missing! Someone like that will likely never let go of a small error!

*sighhhhh*

Key's still missing. And I'm pretty sure I returned it to where it needed to be. It's not like I have it or anything. I've been trying to retrace my steps just in case.

Oof. I hope they get found really soon!
