Powers
Lucifer's powers are currently dispersed among hundreds of forms. As each avatar is destroyed, the power within that host disperses into the remaining avatars, making each one become that much stronger, until only one body will remain with all of Lucifer's powers.

Abilities
An immensely powerful supernatural entity, Lucifer's abilities include creating interdimensional portals, image projection, demonic possession, mystical force blasts, illusion-casting, size and shape-shifting, matter manipulation, raising and animating the dead, and regenerating the corpses of those he inhabits. Lucifer can capture the souls of recently deceased humans, though this usually applies only to beings who bargain away their souls to him. Lucifer does not need to eat, sleep or drink and is immune to aging and conventional disease.

Official Handbook Bibliography

Lucifer has kept his true history mysterious throughout the years through deceit and deception. It is believed that he was once an angel who led other angels in banishing the N'Garai from Earth and led a group of followers in a rebellion against God during a war in Heaven. Following his defeat, Lucifer and his lieutenants Beelzeboul, Kazann, Malachi, Olivier, Pazuzu, Xaphan and others were all cast down to Hell as punishment. During this time, he became the demon known as the Prince of Lies, ruling a realm in Hell.
