Born of house Aermaine, Lucias lived a very privileged life. Being a good-looking, rich, noble generally means getting what one wants. Lucias became incredibly accustomed to getting his way from an early age, using his words to spin the truth. His favorite target was his older brother William. Stupid and gullible, he made for a very easy target whenever Lucias got into trouble.
Manipulating others to get what he wanted became even easier when Lucias manifested his sorcerer powers. Using his new found magical ability, he could charm his way into getting exactly what he wanted when words weren't enough. However, there was always something that he would never get, the title of Lord Aermaine and his father's fortune. That was his brother's fate.
Lucias had always hated his brother. Completely incompetent, the oaf would still be the first to inherit their father, Dorian's title and fortune. The man could hardly read, much less handle being the head of a noble house. No, that title cleared belonged to Lucias, and he intended on taking it.
One night, after charming his brothers guards to get them out of the way, Lucias crept into his brothers room late in the night. The dagger across his brother's neck easily enough, and Lucias was finally rid of his obstacle. However, his enchantments were not powerful enough, and one of the guards came back to see Lucias holding the bloody dagger over his brother's dead body. Realizing that he would not be able to talk his way out of this, he summoned a creature to fight for him while he made his escape. Planning to leave town for good, Lucias was caught just before he could escape his family's estate.
His choice of sentence was death, with a chance to redeem himself for his crimes. Seeing that as his only chance of coming out alive, Lucias banded together with a group of other criminals, agreeing to the task at hand, and he began to bide his time to exact his revenge.
