Appearance: Lucifer is a slender-figured fallen angel who sports a close resemblance to his daughter, Charlie - having her white skin with rosy-cheeks, blonde hair with thin light coral streaks on the thicker, paler-blonde highlights, and eyes with light yellow sclera and red pupils. He is shorter than his daughter, though not by a large amount.

Unlike Charlie, his mouth is full of sharp teeth, his hair is cut short and has been slicked back in a ducktail hairstyle with one tuft sticking out, his pupils are slit like a snake, and his cheeks are a paler shade of red. In addition, he also sports sharp, black eyebrows, his eyelids are light purple, and his tongue is forked.

Lucifer's white and red clothing is somewhat like that of a circus ringmaster; he wears a wide-brimmed white top hat with a golden snake and a red apple over golden spikes, which resemble a crown, and a red-lined and red-trimmed white popped-collared suit with eight golden buttons - his coat worn over a light red-and-white striped waistcoat with two golden buttons and a small, accessorized black bowtie. In "The Show Must Go On" his suit has red and golden epaulets, resembling those of a ringmaster. He also wears a set of heeled black knee-high boots and forearm-length dark grey gloves. On his left pinkie, he sports a golden ring which is presumably his wedding ring. Lucifer is usually seen carrying an apple-topped black cane that matches his hat. Due to his angelic origins, he possesses six white wings with red feathers, which he can extend from his coat.

Full Demon: When he takes on his full demonic form, as well as displaying his wings, he displays a pair of red horns with an orb of fire between them and the snake and apple of his hat floating above resembling a halo. His eyes also change to have red sclera with yellow pupils. He also has a black tail with spikes that end in a triangular tip with a red heart at the center. Eyes also appear on the inside of his coattails, and a similar eye also appears on his bowtie. In addition, his entire body gives off a white glow.

Personality: Despite his status as the ruler of all of Hell, Lucifer possesses a grandiose and dramatic nature, acting very over-the-top in most situations. He switches between being silly and theatrical and awkward and melancholic. Like Charlie, Lucifer is ambitious in his beliefs. According to the "The Story of Hell" book Charlie reads in "Overture", Lucifer was an idealistic dreamer whose desire to gift humankind with free will led to the accidental creation of Hell and the subsequent banishment of it caused him to give up his dreams. After he and Lilith separated, Lucifer went into isolation and fell into depression. He coped by crafting and hoarding tons of rubber ducks, spending years in his home. This obsession also causes him to become estranged from his daughter, to the point where he barely calls her at all and thinks she does not want to talk to him.

Lucifer is often times careless and doesn't think about what he says, even appearing clueless at times. For example, when confronting Adam, Lucifer misworded a verbal threat as an innuendo instead and smiled proudly afterward, and when Charlie corrects him, he forgets what he said. In his first meeting with Vaggie, he calls her "Maggie" right after being told her name. Additionally, even with his monumental position, he is rather socially awkward, for example, trying to connect with Charlie by excitedly bringing up that they both like girls.

However, he is not afraid to fight or get violent, as shown when he fearlessly battles Adam and beats him up violently. In the process, he is unafraid to act cocky and successfully irritate Adam by reminding him about his failure with Lilith, as well as suggesting he slept with Eve. Lucifer shows more intimidation prowess when he orders Lute to "take her 'little friends' and go home". Even so, he adds "please" politely, showing his generally refined manner.

As a father, he falls short of expectations. Although he loves Charlie dearly, he seems to be preoccupied with his own problems. He rarely calls her, and when he does, it's usually because he's bored or needs something. When Charlie reached out to him for help in setting up a meeting with Heaven, he was thrilled to hear from her. However, he couldn't recall where she was or what she was doing, even though she had shared her passion project, the Hazbin Hotel, with him months ago. He also wasn't aware that Charlie was dating someone, or that she was attracted to women. This indicates that, despite his love for Charlie, he doesn't communicate with her and hasn't built up a relationship with her, though it was shown that Lucifer was much closer to Charlie in her childhood, even being the one that inspired her to pursue her dreams and passions, only becoming more distant in Charlie’s adulthood.

While he is the King of Hell, Lucifer hardly rules over his subjects and leaves them to their own devices. As a result, his name (and, by extension, Charlie) carries little weight. While the denizens of Hell recognize that he is a powerful force to be reckoned with, they seem to know that little, if anything, would make him show up. Lucifer dislikes the Sinners of Hell and describes them as "violent, destructive psychopaths, hellbent on causing as much pain and destruction as possible". According to him, they are all "the worst" he does not believe they can be redeemed and he cares little for what happens to them. Despite his disapproval of Sinners, Lucifer hints that he regrets his role in ever giving them free will due to what they had done with it and the consequences that came from this.

Although he understands his daughter's interest in rehabilitating Sinners, Lucifer is cynical about the idea of trying to save any of them, as he attempted to redeem sinners in the past, stating that Charlie doesn't know when he tried this all before, and that his dreams were too hard to defend. Since Heaven was so unwilling to listen to him in the past, he does not want Charlie to go through the same thing. However, she still manages to convince him to arrange a meeting in Heaven for her and Vaggie, which helps Lucifer regain faith in her plans.

Lucifer is fiercely protective of Charlie, as seen when he threatens her bodyguards, Razzle and Dazzle, that they had better been doing their job protecting her. Later, when Alastor began rubbing in his failings to be a proper, supportive father to Charlie and her dreams and implying he had taken Lucifer's place as Charlie's father figure, Lucifer displayed jealousy toward Alastor, whom he began to see as a rival for Charlie's affection and became insecure about his father-daughter bond with her. In "The Show Must Go On", he arrived late, but joined the fight against Adam and the Exorcists, helping Charlie defeat them. This protective nature is shown again when at one point, Adam tries to strike both Lucifer and Charlie from behind for them to block his blow and send him flying into the dirt. Dropping the mocking attitude he had previously given to Adam during their fight, Lucifer then proceeds to angrily berate Adam for threatening him and Charlie before beating him within an inch of his life, only stopping at Charlie's insistence.

Immortality - As told in "Overture", Lucifer has existed since before the creation of the world, meaning he is at least thousands of years old and presumably unable to die of old age, and as demonic royalty is presumably biologically immortal and only able to be killed by angelic weaponry.

Angelic power - Lucifer possesses immensely powerful angelic magic which holds sway over the demonic power of his contemporaries.

Pyligenesis - In "Dad Beat Dad", Lucifer was shown to conjure portals as a means of instant transportation, which Lucifer has shown to use when transporting other demons can use. These portals manifest as rings of sparkly light, similar to the portal that took and removed Charlie and Vaggie in "Welcome to Heaven" from Heaven, indicating that this ability is derived from his angelic powers.

Demonic transformation - Lucifer can assume a more fearsome and powerful demonic form.

Enhanced strength - Lucifer's physical strength is beyond exceptional, as he barely put any effort during his fight with Adam, mocking the first man, when the Angel managed to defeat both Charlie and Alastor in brief skirmishes.

Flight - Lucifer can summon six angelic wings on a whim, with the size of his wings varying throughout the show.

Life manipulation - Lucifer created Razzle and Dazzle for Charlie.

Teleportation - Lucifer can instantly teleport himself from one location to another. He does this by enveloping himself in a swirling fog of deep red smoke with sparkling, golden glitter.

Shapeshifting - Lucifer can shapeshift into a wide variety of animals, as seen in "The Show Must Go On", he took the forms of a snake, a goat, a bird, a horse, and an octopus. When he shapeshifts, he still keeps some of his traits, like color scheme, blush, hair, bowtie, and top hat.

Conjuration - Lucifer seems to be able to create virtually anything he desires with a simple flick of the wrist. This includes, but is not limited, to clothing, puppets, instruments, large fountains of champagne, and mountains of caviar.

Pyrokinesis - Like his daughter, Charlie, he also has the power to manipulate fire at will. When fighting Adam in "The Show Must Go On" he is seen creating balls of fire out of thin air at will.

Fire breath - He can make fire come out of his mouth when he speaks.

Musical talent - Similar to his daughter, Lucifer partakes in singing.

Instrumental talent - Additionally, he is shown to be quite a skilled fiddle player during his musical duet with Alastor. Lucifer also showed that he could play a violin and an accordion to a minor degree. He can also play the trumpet, shown for a brief moment at the beginning of the Hell's Greatest Dad.

Craftsmanship - Lucifer spends his time making rubber ducks with various gimmicks, such as flipping backwards and spitting fire.

Hand-to-hand combat - He is adept at physical combat, as he effortlessly held his own against Adam in "The Show Must Go On".

Lucifer's first name translates to "shining one", "the morning star" (referring to Venus), or "light-bringer" in Latin from Hebrew. One of these translations matches his surname, Morningstar.

The apple tucked in the brim of his hat, and on the end of his cane, seem to reference the story of Adam and Eve, where a talking snake (often interpreted as being the Devil) persuades the first woman, Eve, into eating a forbidden fruit (often depicted in pop-culture as an apple), resulting in her and Adam being thrown out of paradise. Lucifer's favorite snack is caramel apples.

Charlie says that she and him haven't been close ever since he and Lilith split and he only ever contacted Charlie to do something for him. Aside from that, Lucifer didn't have any faith in Sinners or Charlie's dream of helping Sinners redeem themselves and ascend into Heaven, which eventually changes

As implied by Lute in "Overture" and elaborated on in "Dad Beat Dad", Lucifer works together with the Exorcists and Heaven in regards to the Extermination. Lute also stated that he had somehow arranged a "pardon" for Charlie and the other Hellborn demons, making it so that Exorcists are only allowed to kill Sinners per Heaven's agreement with him.

Lucifer can play many types of instruments very well, including the fiddle, which he plays "phenomenally well". During his duet with Alastor, Lucifer is shown playing a golden fiddle, a reference to the famous Charlie Daniels song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia".

Lucifer is shown to be left-handed as he plays the fiddle with his left hand and holds his cane in his right hand.

Lucifer is stated to own a theme park called Lu Lu World. It is revealed that the titular amusement park has an amusement ride named "Fun House" which has its exterior modeled after Lucifer's head.

Lucifer has a mass collection of rubber ducks, and creates plenty of new ones with additional features that regular rubber ducks don't have. In his mansion, alongside his numerous photos of Charlie and Lilith, he has a picture of himself hugging what looks like a younger Frederick von Eldritch. There is also a photo of Seviathan von Eldritch and Charlie that can be momentarily seen. Lucifer implies that he had an affair with Eve at some point, though whether that's true or he just said that to enrage Adam is unknown. Fitting his circus ringmaster theme, the ringtone on his phone is a very well-known motif from "Entry of the Gladiators", a classic song known for its association with the circus. He is the only member of the Seven Deadly Sins confirmed as being Heavenborn. In a mid-2024 interview, Vivziepop confirmed that Charlie and Lucifer Morningstar can travel across the Rings of Hell.

Lucifer has a lot in common with Willy Wonka, explaining that Wonka is "a showy dick".

Lucifer cares about his subjects. They describe Hell as like an oligarchy, and that Lucifer is not very politically active in the traditional sense, only serving to maintain the status quo of power. It's revealed Lucifer had convinced the Exorcists to spare Charlie and the other Hellborn demons from the Extermination, which by extension sparing the rest of the Rings of Hell as Sinners only exist in the Pride Ring.
