In his true form, Lucien stands approximately 6'4" tall and weighs about 170 lbs., with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His hair is red, and longer in back than in front. The bangs and sides are short enough to lift back away from his face, while the back trails down in wisps to the nape of his neck. His eyes are bright blue and towards the large side, but are narrow and somewhat almond-shaped. He has a Roman nose, but it is not large, with defined cheekbones and a narrow chin.
Lucien's symbol is a coiled serpent, the symbol of House Vetch.Black.
Duke Vetch, Head of House Vetch.
Lyn: Lucien's soul name while in his faerie form.
Mark: Identity used by Lucien to get close to Ariana, he was a flight instructor that she took as a lover while living in Maui on an Earth-like Shadow.
Martin Barimen: Identity assumed by Lucien after Patternfall, to fascilitate his information gathering in Amber. It was in this identity that he met Ariana and they became lovers for the first time. It's uncertain where the real Martin was during this period.
Oishin: Nickname given to Lucien by his first wife, Loryn, it became the name he is commonly known as amongst the Fey.
Riftvan: Name adopted by Lucien after Loryn's death, both because using Lucien reminded him of his life with her, and because concealing his true name made sorcery less effective against him.
