Biography: (300 words minimum.)
Lucifer Morgenstern was born to Josef and Maria Morgenstern on the 19th of April, 1955, in Berlin, Germany. Following the birth of his sister Jezebel nine months later, the Morgensterns moved their rapidly growing family to the small town of Interlaken, in Switzerland. The two siblings were close, despite constant bickering. As their muggle-born mother wished, Lucifer and Jezebel followed both the Muggle and Wizarding curriculums throughout their teenage years. Maria had always been a rather outstanding witch, and she elected to teach her children magic in the safety of their own home. Lucifer proved to be just as bright as his mother, excelling in transfiguration and defensive magic. In fact, he finished his studies two year in advance. However, his vocation of choice was not a magical calling; in 1971, he moved to London and enrolled in the Institute of Social Psychology. He thrived in London, acing all his classes and forming close friendships with wizards and muggles alike. He even started going steady with a muggle named Cathy, from the mathematics department. Naturally, when the Time Warp occurred in 1974, he was devastated. He had lost his girl, and his degree (he was notably more upset about his degree, though.) However, his grief didn’t last long. To his surprise, he realized that the field of psychology was in the midst of an intellectual revolution, and that he had the possibility to contribute and shape its future. Motivated, he began to frequently attend lectures at Cambridge University, and subsequently finished his degree there in 1939, at the age of 21. Lucifer began to work alongside Muggle scientists, psychologists, and philosophers, which earned him the disapproval of many in the wizarding world.
  Jezebel had joined him in London during his studies, despite the threat posed by WWII. The fact that the rest of their family lived in neutral Switzerland was a relief to both of them, even if they could no longer visit each other. Their separation from their family only strengthened their bond; the Morgenstern siblings finally learned to tolerate each other. After all, they had to: they shared an apartment.
  In 1941, rumors of stricter military service requirements began to spread. To avoid conscription, Lucifer enrolled once again at Cambridge University, this time to study philosophy. As a student, he was exempt from all military duty.

Roleplay Response:
Lucifer hadn’t slept in a while. He was in the middle of a rather important study that had the potential to turn modern psychology upside down. He had reason to believe that their subject’s depression was linked to fluctuating hormone levels. Now if only he could prove it! Stepping outside of the small, converted loft that he was using as a lab, Lucifer was forced to close his eyes; he hadn’t been exposed to that much light in the past few days. He almost slipped down the stairs, having not taken notice of the coating of ice covering the brick. Ice! Finally. Lucifer loved the cold weather, and the powdery snow that layered the pavement could not have made him happier. Off he went, skipping down the streets, looking as mad as the patients he spent his days studying. Admittedly, had he slept or eaten in the last few days, his behavior might not have been so outrageous. However, all he could think about was the meal Jezebel’s latest bedmate had ready (he would have to thank her for bringing home a chef) and the possibility of snowball fight in Hyde park before catching up on several dozen hours of lost sleep.
 After a few blocks, Lucifer began to shiver. While his three-piece tweed suit did an excellent job of showing off his rather slim yet impressive figure (a handful of young ladies had already swooned as he pranced by,) it did absolutely nothing to keep out the chill. He had meant to purchase a nice overcoat, but he was partial to quality, and hadn’t the money for his luxurious taste in clothing. Sighing, Lucifer figured he might as well pop into Diagon Alley and see what the seamstress there had available, although her selection of Muggle garb might be limited.
  Lucifer was delighted with the winter atmosphere of Diagon Alley; the smell of cinnamon and apple cider wafted through the streets, making his belly rumble. Admittedly, it wasn’t nearly as festive as it might have been; the war was taking its toll on everyone. Lucifer quickened his pace, searching for the blasted clothing store. He wasn’t quite sure what happened next; one moment, he was reaching for the shop’s bronze door-handle, and the next, he was lying spread eagle on the ground, a heavy box on his chest.
  Coughing, Lucifer rolled over, shoving the box off of himself. His suit was drenched and clung to his skinny frame.
“For Merlin’s sake!” said an angry voice behind him. Lucifer looked around. An old man was also getting to his feet. “I am so sorry! This blasted snow!” he continued. Lucifer rose nimbly to his feet and straightened his jacket. Tinsel had somehow managed to loop itself around his head, forming a crimson crown that clashed horribly with his mop of ginger hair.
“It’s no problem,” Lucifer assured the old man, who was also wrapped in colorful Christmas decorations. He pulled out his own wand and waved it. The box righted itself and rose to waist level. “After all, I hear that tinsel is all the rage in Paris right now!”
