- Lumiere, Aether

Lumiere is an boss character in the Dark Delirium story collection created by Mc-Starz. Although she initially attacks the player, she allies with them afterward to fight Hysteria.

History

Background

Growing up, Lumiere grew up an only child by her parents who were experienced light mages. Her parents were quite protective of their little girl and wished nothing for a bright future for Lumiere, which is why they trained her in the basics of light magic at a young age to protect herself. As Lumiere grew older, she grew more confident and more adept with her magical capabilities. She came across one of her mother's old manuals written in a language she's never heard of. Time after time, Lumiere adjusted to this new form of language and taught herself the more advanced aspects of radiant sorcery behind her parents' backs. Until one fateful day, Lumiere looked all around the tower in search of her parents as they had disappeared without any warning. As Lumiere left the tower, she comes across her mother's special necklace which was an heirloom passed down by many generations. Lumiere only assumed they were taken away by the dark forces, feeling broken she rushed back into the tower and locked herself inside. To this day, Lumiere did more research to figure out how to bring her parents back and hopefully punish the dark forces for good.[1]

Dark Delirium

After Oddball and the player are mysteriously teleported away from Hysteria, Lumiere speaks to the nanobot by herself. She explains that she teleported them and Delirium to safety. After attacking the player out of fear, Lumiere calms down and apologizes for attacking. However, she is quick to fall under Hysteria's control. Eventually managing to break free, Lumiere manages to narrowly defeat Hysteria. She reveals the Heart of Darkness to be Hysteria's weakness, and she sets off with the player to seek it out. [2]

Before setting off after the Heart of Darkness, Lumiere gets a moment to properly reunite with Delirium. Apologizing for letting her fears put Delirium in danger, Lumiere promises to protect him. The two hug and depart, with Lumiere offering to read Delirium a bedtime story.[3]

Lumiere, Delirium and the player then visit a cave with a rift into Hysteria's world. The two of them hold open the rift as the player enters, venturing into the unknown.[4]

Description

Appearance

Lumiere is a white, humanoid figure that wears a white robe and a hexagonal necklace. She has two oval eyes with eyelashes. She also has two hexagonal hands with a small hexagon pattern in each hand.

Personality

Lumiere is seen as overprotective over her subjects and acts as a motherly figure, mainly to Delirium. She's also pretty intelligent but pretty secretive with her work.[1]

Relationships

  • Delirium: Lumiere has the strongest relationship with him, since she created him when he was just a soulless husk with enough light essence. She grew a motherly connection with him and trained him under her wing to fend off the dark forces.[1]
  • Hysteria: Assumed to be enemies since they're both from opposing sides as she ended up getting possessed in "Aether", only to battle against them (with Lumiere's form).[1]
  • Nano (nanobot): Lumiere and the nanobot are allies. She initially saw the nanobot as a threat as they appeared suspicious. Following a fight between the two, they were on the same team.[1][2]
  • Oddball: Oddball and Lumiere are not shown to interact much, but she trusts him to keep the tower safe during Mirage VIP.
