Combat
Act of Mercy: Lucifer has never been able to rid himself of the goodness deep within him from the eons he spent as an archangel in Celestia. Even when he was King of Hell, the embodiment of tyranny and evil, Lucifer would make seemingly random acts of mercy. These instances are in fact times when his goodness breaks free from its long imprisonment. Every time that Lucifer commits an act of evil there is a 10% chance that he will act with mercy. If the chance is made, Lucifer uses the good version of any evil aligned extraordinary, supernatural, spell-like ability he possesses. This includes any class abilities such as deadly touch which he would use as the Paladin ability lay on hands.
Bringer of Light: Lucifer is the Bringer of Light, and as such he is immune to light effects such as blindness. Also, 18 times per day as a full round action, Lucifer can create a blast of golden light in a sphere blast. The sphere blast has a 60ft radius around Lucifer dealing 22d6 points of damage. Undead in the area take 22d10 points of damage, and any that are destroyed are destroyed as per a disintegrate spell (CL 50). Any creature within the sphere that is normally blinded or dazed by bright light must make a Fortitude save (DC 63) or be utterly destroyed, creatures that are destroyed by light normally are destroyed with no save. The light from the blast is so bright that those within 600 ft. of the edge of the blast take 10d6 damage and must make a Fortitude save (DC 63) or be permanently blinded. Lucifer may choose to spare any number of individuals from the affects of this ability.
Call Devils: Since he left Hell, Lucifer has not attempted to call devils to his side, and for good reason, but if he ever chose to do so, he can take a standard action 3/day to attempt to call 3 pit fiends, 9 gelugons, or 18 of any of the lesser devils. He has a 50% chance of success in calling them. Since they are called, the devils may attempt to summon other devils.
Diabolical Aura: The DC for the Will save of Lucifer’s Diabolical Aura is 63.
General of the Armies: Lucifer has been a leader since before time. He has led the armies of Celestia into the very bowels Hell and led the armies of Hell to the mountains of Celestia. He is a beacon of hope in the darkness. All allies within line of sight of Lucifer are immune to fear. In addition, 9/day Lucifer can issue a rally and charge to his troops, giving them (and Lucifer himself) +8 Str, +6 Con morale bonus, +6 to damage, and a +4 dodge modifier to AC for 3 hours.
Paragon of Law: Lucifer’s very presence is unbearable to chaotic creatures. All chaotic aligned creatures within 30ft radius of Lucifer must make a Will save (DC 63) or take 3d6 points of axiomatic damage per round which bypasses any DR. Lucifer also has the ability to cast all the spells in the Law domain as spell-like abilities.
The Presence of Hell: Lucifer’s Presence of Hell has a radius of 1350 feet centered on himself. The effective caster level is 50 and the Will Save is 63.
Regeneration: Lucifer’s regeneration is bypassed by epic, good, and silver weapons or by spells with the good descriptor.

Redeemer: Lucifer carries Redeemer a +9 holy power axiomatic greatsword. In addition, when Lucifer scores a critical hit with Redeemer against chaotic and/or evil creatures, the creature must make a Will save (DC 54) or have its alignment changed two steps toward lawful good. Any evil being killed by Redeemer automatically has its alignment changed to lawful good. Lucifer acquired Redeemer shortly after he left Hell behind, and he carries it and wields it when necessary. However, he does so while suffering the consequences. Lucifer has not fully atoned, and Redeemer is a holy weapon. It burns him to wield it in combat, but he does so willing, hoping that it will show he is truly repentant. It is said that this holy artifact was fashioned from the metals of the very mountains of Celestia, heated by flames gather from the heart of Elemental Plane of Fire, and cooled in the holy sea at the base of the mountain.
Possessions: Lucifer always carries Redeemer and wears his golden set of +6 adamantine heavy fortification breastplate of command. The only jewelry he wears is the Ring of Law, cast with two opposing mountaintops, one in alabaster, the other in onyx, with swirling red in between. The Ring of Law is said to have been given to Lucifer by the Supreme Virtue herself. Those who know of it suspect it is an artifact of incredible power, but no one knows for sure of its true powers. Perhaps it is the Ring of Law that kept Lucifer tied to The Supreme Virtue while he was King of Hell. Some suspect the Ring played a crucial role in Lucifer’s great escape from the clutches of Asmodeus himself.
