They were for what he said, pretty much, except that it wasn't for me. Section 13 was established to appease the greatest power in Gehenna in his obsessive hunt for a body that would be able to sustain him.
Though Section 13 itself is long closed, his followers took our research on elixirs and continued it.
That sounds like a level of possession law I wouldn't have a clue about.
Although if it's being used for something ... [ what exactly do you call the aquistion of a body to sustain the greatest power in Gehenna? other than "a headache" and "bad"? ] ... less than ideal, then yeah, go with stole.

Did taking that research off the radar make it easier for it to continue without anyone intervening if it got out of hand? I'm no expert, but the idea of shoving the greatest power of anything into a physical form sounds like a nightmare.
...But you have things a little backward. Lucifer has gone through a number of bodies already; the problem is that his power causes them to deteriorate rapidly, and within a few years, he finds himself debilitated and in excruciating pain. That's what drove him mad and made him into the threat he is now.
It's because of his personal situation that Lucifer resents the human world as much as he does. And he's convinced himself that because he so intimately understands the suffering and unfairness in the world, he's justified in obliterating everything to put an end to it.
About one hundred years ago, he was ready to do it. I suggested the idea behind Section 13 to him as a possible solution in order to convince him to wait.
And then when that was gone and that research “taken”, “stolen”, it was out of your control?

still. it puts some context to that other memory — what that kid had said about bodies and others that looked like he did. there are pieces, and date can see how they’d fall into place. ]
So, when you break it down to the basics — he just wants to see the world burn. That’s it?

Kind of a big plot thing, I guess you could say.

An obsessive one. "Took" or "Stole"?

Would you feel the same way about its second greatest power?

Depends on what it plans on doing, I guess.

He'd put it in much more eloquent terms. "Return the world to nothingness so all will exist in equality, free from suffering."
Crap like that.

Good luck with that mess, then. I thought I got the short end of the stick with eye-pulling serial killers, but perspective's a hell of a thing.
