History[]
Four Fallen Gods Saga[]
Not much is known about Lucius' past other than being one of the part of the gods known as the Divine Ten. However, prior to the main story, he directly murders one of the Divine Ten members, Kulyuk, by posing as the Holy Emperor because of the clashing ideals against each other as Kulyuk is a god who treats both humans and gods as equals much to Lucius' disappointment. It was also implied that he corrupted the other Divine Tens such as Maxwell, Cardes, Zevalhua and Afla Dilith and as a result, they ended up becoming the Four Fallen Gods.
Six Pillars Saga[]
After the incident with Kulyuk, it was revealed that he tried to get rid of the Six Pillars, the six lesser gods who follows the Divine Tens as a disciple, because of the various transgression that they had committed. To this end, he put a facade like a human being in order to trap some of them such as when he tried to persuade one of the Six Pillars, Tazer, who lost his friend in the battle against one of the Four Fallen Gods, Afla Dilith, by offering him some refugee so that he could rest in a barrier at a demon world known as Ishgria. However, it was revealed to be a trap from Lucius so that both of the Six Pillars could be pitted against each other. Fortunately, one of the Six Pillars, Feeva, notices Lucius' atrocity and she led the other five to fight against him. However, they were sealed forever in Ishgria until they're dead.
12 Guardians of the Gods Saga[]
After he successfully imprisoned the Six Pillars, the Leader of the Twelve Guardians of the Gods, Sodis, heard about the treachery that the gods, including Lucius, had committed and as a result, he rebelled against them which resulted of the Twelve Guardians being divided into two factions, one who were on the god's side such as Sodis' brother, Alyut who led the faction, Farlon, Raydn, Ophelia, Rina and Lunaris and the one who opposed the gods which consisted of Sodis, Ramna, Signas, Luly, Grybe and his second in command, Zephyr. After the ensuing tragedy which resulted of the stability of Grand Gaia began to crumble that ended up getting the 8 of the Guardians confirmed dead, one was on deep sleep and three of them, Signas, Ophelia and Zephyr were survived from the bloody conflict, Lucius then sent his disciples, Melord and Marlo to get rid of them. Ophelia was killed by Melord and Signas was killed by Marlo.
However, despite being mortally wounded by Marlo, Zephyr manages to escape the tragedy that struck him and tries to spread his will with his real name, Akras Z. Muzel, so that people could live happily without the gods plaguing and eradicating their lives which resulted to become one of the main motivations of the current organization that the Summoner and co. affiliated for, Akras Summoners Hall, to get rid of the gods.
Ten-Winged Tormentor[]
In the same time of the Twelve Guardians saga, it was also strongly implied that Lucius gave the power to a robot/an armor that was flung from the Other World named Melchio and as a result, he became a demon known as Ten Winged Tormentor who massacred innocent people in a country known as La Veda republic which resulted of it being a huge omen for a huge war that will come in the future.
The War of the Gods[]
It was also revealed that he tricked one of his disciple who wear a shining armor, Ark, along with his companions that they need to seal the ruler of the Divine Ten, known as the Holy Emperor Karna Masta, who sought to exterminate the human race. After the sacrifices of Ark's comrades from defeating Karna Masta, this resulted in an event known as the War of The Gods, a huge war between the humans and gods in Grand Gaia while Ark was fell into a coma for several months.
After Ark woke up from his coma, Lucius then tricks Ark to kill the hopes of the humanity, known as The Six Heroes, via one of his disciples Melord considered that the humanity would lose at this point. Lucius also took Ark's lover, the Shrine Maiden Ilia, as a hostage so that Ark could execute Lucius' bidding.
After Ark defeated most of the Six Heroes, he then requested an audience with Lucius so that he could release the Shrine Maiden. However, in a fit of rage, Ark then attacks Lucius but as a result, Lucius sealed Ilia along with his disciple, Melord into Ishgria which resulted on Ark abandoning his humanity and become a dark figure that serves Lucius. It was also revealed that he callously abandons Melord in Ishgria. As a result, Melord become an abomination when he reached one of Ishgria regions and ruled it.
Humanity's Pilgrimage from Grand Gaia to Elgaia[]
After the humanity was in brink of losing to the Gods in the great war, it was revealed that a goddess who had protected different worlds since the dawn of time known as Wintia plead to Lucius that the humans who survived the war need to escape and relocate to a whole new world known as Elgaia. As a result, Lucius listen her pleas.
However, it was revealed that he also had an ulterior motive on why he accepted Wintia's pleas: He wanted to prevent the curse that was spread into Grand Gaia that could be used by humans to turn tables against the gods after the Holy Emperor Karna Masta is sealed in Ishgria along with the Oracle Maiden and one of his disciples. The curse is known as "The Summoning Power", a power that could make someone summon the spirits that roams in either Grand Gaia or in other worlds such as Ishgria so that they could combat against great evil.
Despite the humanity was able to enjoy their lives in Elgaia, it was revealed that there is an event that caused people in Elgaia split into two groups after Wintia cut all contacts with Elgaia: One group who revered Lucius and one group who revered Wintia which caused the beginning of World Order's collapse.
Present Day[]
500 years later after humanity's pilgrimage to Elgaia, it was revealed that he raised another disciple on his wing known as Tilith, who is an oblivious but a nice goddess. It was also revealed that he let the first summoner, Owen, to travel across Grand Gaia with his companion, Grahdens. In the present day, the current summoner and Tilith travels through Grand Gaia so that they could defeat the Four Fallen Gods that ravaged the world.
However, behind the scenes, Lucius was secretly manipulating them all alone and it was revealed that the Randall Empire's Imperial Guard, Eriole, saw that Lucius never trusted humans in the first place and tries to change the world. When defeated, Eriole then reveals the truth towards the summoner and his/her companions about Lucius tries to close the gate that connects to Elgaia and Grand Gaia and in his full power, he will try to eradicate all of the humanity so that he could rule the world for his own whims and preserve the order.
After the incident, Summoner and his/her companions then confronts Lucius in Bariura. When Ark reveals himself towards the summoner and his/her companions in the Tower of Oracle in Bariura and tells his story, Lucius then orders the summoner and his companions to eliminate Ark but they refuse to do so and instead goes to Grand Gaia carter where Lucius stay dormant in there. When facing the summoner and his/her companions, Lucius then prepares to eradicate those who betray him and during the fight, it was revealed that he fused himself with the Four Fallen Gods and become a being known as "Multifarious Lucius". After the Summoner and his companions defeated him, the seal that Lucius put on the gate that holds the demon world known as Ishgria is falling apart which causes the demons from said world tries to invade Grand Gaia.

As a trial unit, he is one of the viciously dangerous trial units to mess with and these are the standout powers that he had during the trial. Especially in first and second one:
- Galaxy: This is a dangerous attack that Lucius had because the attack could decimate your units. It removes your buffs and reduce your BB gauge by 100% if you use your UBB. Survivable if you have a units with Angel Idols.
- Lost Soul: Another painful attack that Lucius had. When you are trying to fight him in Phase 2 and battle him in every 5 turns, Lucius will use this attack on the units that either has the lowest or the highest choice. Guarding is the only option!
- Refrain: He will apply a damage overtime buff that could deplete some of your units HP. Can be encountered if your units have a heal over time to encounter this buff. But if it's in the second trial, you can swap the entire team if the damage is unsurvivable.
- Oblio: He will reduce the damage that he receive from his enemies for 100% for 999 turns. It will also drain your BB gauge for 100%. You need to deal around 300 damage to cancel his Oblio.
- Gate: Perhaps Lucius' most famous attack. If you use him as a unit, it will have 70 combos powerful Light Attack towards the enemies considered that this is his UBB after all. But in trial, it sometimes smaller than that and drains BB gauge by 50%
