Lucia Raregroove

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lucia Raregroove is a character from the anime and manga series Rave Master.

[edit] Background

As the son of King, he was the heir not only to the throne of Demon Card, but also the Raregroove Kingdom. He was an infamous legend known among the Empire as the Blonde Demon, a boy whose power was so great and terrifying, he was a threat to the entire world. Much like Gale Glory and King were destined to oppose each other, Lucia is every bit the antithesis to the second Rave Master Haru Glory, as the self-proclaimed Dark Bring Master.

[edit] History

During the Empire's infamous raid of Demon Card headquarters 10 years ago, Lucia was presumably killed in the slaughter along with King's wife Emilia. However, he survived and was imprisoned within the 66th basement of the maximum security desert prison Mega Unit. During his incarceration, the main piece of the Mother Dark Bring Sinclair approached him and gave him power, knowledge, and information about the world. Most disturbingly, it drew forth all of the evil within the boy, with the goal of creating a human being of pure evil that can maximize the power of the most powerful Dark Bring.

Eventually, he would become powerful enough to violently break out of his imprisonment within Mega Unit. In the days that followed his escape, he would annihilate dozens of criminal organizations enroute to the country of Symphonia, where he would meet the Rave Master and his friends. He would mock Elie with a kiss, and dismiss her friends' attempt to stop him with his great power. Afterwards, he would make his way to the rebuilding Demon Card's new HQ, where the sorcerer Haja would deem him as the new ruler of both Demon Card and the Raregroove Kingdom. Lucia would vow to surpass his father's greatness, and destroy anyone who got in his way.

To that end, he would strive to make Demon Card the most powerful organization in the world, as well as to attain the full might of Sinclair and Stellar Memories. His most ambitious move to the achievement of this goal was the infamous Project: Dark Rendezvous, which gathered and united the forces of evil and darkness under the banner of Demon Card. As several of their new recruits possessed 2 of the Sinclair pieces, and Demon Card had 2 more, Lucia took it upon himself to confront Haru in Star Vestige and retrieve the final piece...

The two would fight an epic battle, interrupted only by the untimely arrival of The Endless, the Forgotten King. The Great Demon Lord Megido would whisk Lucia away from the conflict, with all pieces of the Sinclair in his possession.

[edit] Powers and Abilities

Sinclair: The mother of all Dark Brings, it was separated into 5 separate pieces after the Overdrive 50 years ago. The main piece is in the one possessed by Lucia; it's main ability is the creation of a warped dimensional space that has enough pressure to annihilate anything.

Decalogue: The Dark Bring that possesses abilities and techniques identical to Ten Commandments. Lucia was bestowed this sword when he became the new ruler of Demon Card. It was destroyed by Haru during the battle in Star Vestige.

• Exploding Sword Dance - Death Ballad Bomb: This is similar to King's technique Desperado Bomb. Lucia's version differs somewhat in that it comes out as a wave of smaller, multiple explosions (like a ground-based version of Haru's Explosion technique 12 Wings of the Explosion Dragon), as opposed to the singular, massive explosion produced by King's version.
• Seal Sword Dance - Demon Seal: Long-range application of the form Rune Save in combat. Lucia uses this technique to seal Ten Commandment's own version of Rune Save, to prevent Haru from further exploiting it's defensive applications in combat.
