Mask or Menace: Physical Description
Lucien has black hair, long enough to be kept tied back. He is not especially tall, and generally carries himself quite well, though in MoM he's still getting used to modern shoe construction, which affects his gait at first. His features are influenced mostly by his Imperial mother, the game series' equivalent to Romans. While he's often seen smiling and is genuinely quite happy to talk to most anyone who engages with him, something's a little off about the expression.
When possible, Lucien is going to be hiding his imPort tattoos under long sleeves, and wearing a jacket or coat. At present he does not carry any weapons unless otherwise specified.
With regards to why all my icons look different... Oh boy. You would think, given the fact that Lucien is from a video game that was once held up as a pinnacle of graphical achievement, I could just put a screenshot here and be done with it, right?
Well unfortunately for Lucien, Oblivion was never too good on the ol' facial region. Let me just say that Lucien looked significantly less like a potato than your average NPC, but that's still not saying much. But the intent to make a fairly attractive, creepy person was there. That's at least somewhat proven by the only official art of him that approaches human-like proportions, made years after the game's release. However, he looks a bit younger here than some of his backstory would suggest. Therefore, fandom consensus coalesced more around something like this in the years before the official art was made. All credit is given to the artists who produced these pictures, specifically TheMinttu, Erika-Xero and Mospineq. Please go look at their work, many of these are very old pictures and they've gotten even better at their craft since their days in active fandom!
