The Bitter End: Lucifer's Heinous Actions in Supernatural Season 12

At the conclusion of season 12 of Supernatural, Lucifer's actions were indeed so horrific that they left a lasting impact on the series and its characters. While the series left some questions unanswered, the concluding moments of this notorious season painted a disturbing picture of Lucifer's intentions and actions.

Lucifer's Motivations in Season 12

The primary aim of Lucifer in season 12 was to find his son Jack, believing that Jack's unique powers could be manipulated to serve his purposes. The series did not provide clear answers on what Lucifer would have done had he succeeded in his pursuit. However, given his earlier behavior, the potential outcomes paint a dark and horrifying scenario.

Trickery and Brutality

Throughout the earlier part of the season, Lucifer demonstrated a repertoire of heinous actions, including:

Killing multiple people: Lucifer, having taken over the vessel, had the audacity to kill several individuals, some of whom were intended to be his vessels. Not only did he kill them, but he likely deceived them into accepting his presence by pretending to be an angel, all while keeping his true nature and motivations hidden from them. Criminal intent: He gathered a group of Vince Vincente's fans with the intention of mass-murder, a chilling display of his disregard for human life on a mass scale. Manipulating and Exploiting: Lucifer's interaction with a woman who he potentially used for the creation of a Nephilim was morally reprehensible. She had no idea who she actually slept with, highlighting the dark nature of his intentions. Bonding with Power: His statement, "destroying everything because he could," and ascribing his actions to God's perceived abandonment, demonstrated a sense of defiance and entitlement that was worrying to witness.

The Tragic Conclusion: Castiel's Death

Among the most heinous acts committed by Lucifer in this season was the killing of Castiel, an act that left a profound and lasting impact on both the show and its characters. In a scene that sparked controversy, Lucifer brutally stabbed Castiel in the back with an angel blade, a moment that not only highlighted the cold and calculated nature of his actions but also the depth of its emotional toll.

Looking Ahead: Season 13 - A New Beginning?

While the season 12 concluded on a dark note, the series offers some hope in the form of new characters and storylines. The arrival of a new character in season 13 provided a sense of relief and signalled the potential for a fresh start, allowing viewers to temporarily move on from the disturbing events of the previous season.

The contrast between the ending of season 12 and the early promise of season 13 serves as a testament to the complex and ultimately tragic nature of the demon Lucifer's character. While the season 12 finale certainly left a lasting impression, the series' ability to introduce new elements and maintain viewer interest is a testament to its enduring appeal.
