Detailed Description
Because of the demonic soul inside of him, Lucid continues to have the ageless appearance of a young man. He has fairly normal light-colored skin, and medium to short medium brown hair which is longer on the sides and shorter in the back. His eyes are gray-green when his human side is in control of his body, and red while the demon is in control. He's often described as having a pretty face, but despises anyone who tells him this.
He usually wears a long, floor-length light gray duster over a sleeveless, black turtleneck shirt, black leather pants and shoes. He wears two leather belts around his waist beneath his coat which holds both of his katars. He also wears black fingerless gloves that come up to about the middle of his forearm, and two wide silver bangles on each wrist.
Personality
Having to share his body with a demon was something that Lucid wasn't really prepared for, but was finally able to accept it. While one soul is in control of his body, the other soul can experience the same things as the other, but cannot do anything except speak to the mind of the other soul, which can sometimes be bothersome, especially when it appears as though he's talking to himself.
Because of what had happened to him in the past, Lucid is usually soft spoken and reserved. He dislikes being touched and has a hard time trusting people, usually spending most of his time alone, communicating with the spirits. The demon soul inside of him gives him a boost in his mind power and physical strength, but despite the boost, he still has a weakness in physical combat, but he can a rather capable and fierce fighter when cornered. For the most part, he usually appears to be quite prudent and passive, but no one really knows what's going on inside of his twisted and sadistic mind.
When Kraai takes control of Lucid's body, he becomes more outgoing and aggressive, but also a bit outspoken and sarcastic, since he resents only having limited control over his new body. The demon side also projects the feelings that Lucid keeps deep inside, inflicting pain on others and enjoying watching as they suffer. It is this way that Lucid obtains the intense satisfaction of being the one in control, a feeling that he so desires in order to ease his own pain.
History
Lucid was born possessing strange psychokinetic powers, and was often seen talking to invisible creatures from the spiritual plane. His strange powers were considered a danger and seemed to put much strain on his family, but they still treated him as he were normal. He was just a child when he watched his parents die in a strange fire. He locked the event from his memory, but the incident had such an impact on him that he became withdrawn and refused to speak. Having no other known relatives to take them in, he and his older sister were sent to the state orphanage. Despite being an extremely intelligent child, his silence caused him to become somewhat of an outcast in the orphanage and he quickly became the target of harassment by other children who thought him to be weird. Lucid often attempted to defend himself, but his inability to control his powers resulted in him accidentally hurting other children. His sister was the only one who accepted his strange abilities and protected him from the cruel teasing and bullying so that he wouldn't harm himself or others with his powers.
After several years, a man named Edwin appeared at the orphange claiming to be their uncle and took them to live with him at his estate. As the head of a research lab, Edwin was interested in Lucid's abilities and wanted to learn more about them. Edwin was kind and loving at first, treating them as they were his own children, but as time wore on, he begin to grow impatient with Lucid's silence and began to abuse him. Lucid soon began to fear his uncle and could only depend on his sister to protect and comfort him, but when she mysteriously disappeared, he found himself all alone. With his sister no longer there to protect him from his uncle's cruelty, he was imprisoned in the lab where he endured years of experimentation and torture at the hands of Edwin and his staff who wanted only to access his supernatural powers.
Attempting to escape was futile and always resulted in a beating or some other severe form of punishment which left Lucid in an extremely weakened and emotionally damaged state. The abuse caused him to harbor intense feelings of hatred, wanting to make the people who hurt him suffer for what they did, but being weakened by drugs and painful experimentation made it something that he could only imagine in his mind. It was during this time that Lucid found another form of escape by entering the dream world. In this state he was always in control, but he also knew it wasn't real. From this state he cold also reach the astral world and seperate from his physical body to temporarily escape the lab. It was this practice that helped him gain control over his powers, and was also how he met the demon Kraai.
Kraai had been trapped within the astral world in the form of a crow, and his only chance of escape was to find a willing mortal to become a host for his soul. Kraai made a deal to help Lucid, but he had to let the demon occupy and use his body. For Lucid, it was a small price to pay in order to finally get his revenge. For Kraai, it was just a way for him to escape his eternal imprisonment, but as his soul entwined with Lucid's, he began to feel sympathetic towards the boy. He was able to see things within Lucid's soul which Lucid had forced himself to forget.
With Kraai's help, Lucid was finally able to escape his cell and kill all those who had hurt him. He then confronted Edwin where it was revealed to him that the man was not his uncle at all, and that he had been responsible for his sister's disappearance. Lucid then killed Edwin and set the lab on fire, but it was a hollow victory for him since he was unable to protect his sister in the end.
After fleeing from the lab, Kraai took Lucid to a safe place where he could recover from his ordeal and further train his mind and body in order to become stronger and protect himself and others.

Limit Breaks
Level 1 - Astral Distortion - Disrupts the area around Lucid and his opponent, causing the astral plane to become crossed with the physical plane, increasing his psychokinetic powers for a short period of time.
Level 2 - Demon Fire - Combining Kraai's fire magic with his own Pyrokenesis ability, Lucid can unleash a powerful blast of Hellfire at the opponent. This spell also has a chance to inflict a status effect which continues to cause burn damage to the opponent over a short period of time.
Level 3 - Black Dream - Summoning the full potency of his mental powers, Lucid plunges his opponent into a living nightmare where Kraai is absolute monarch. Private for each of his opponents(running the whole spectrum of the dark reaches of the subconscious), this conflict takes place inside their minds, leaving their bodies frozen temporarily as the hell rages within. It’s possible for these dark dreams to completely consume the opponent, leaving them mindless and in a vegetative state. If an opponent survives this waking journey into the dark depths of their own minds, they will be afflicted with the status effects of confusion, fear, and paralysis.
Level 4 - Asunder - He reaches out using controlled psychokinetic waves of energy and grabs the opponent, attempting to twist their body apart in a most violent and painful way.
