'''Lucian Virtuoso''' is the current CEO of [[Virtuoso]]. He inherited the company from his father, Amon Virtuoso, who in turn had kept the company going as part of a family legacy that has lasted nearly 200 years.
'''Lucian Virtuoso''' is the young CEO of the company that shares his family name. After assuming his role, he has almost never left his office on Torus, instead exploring the galaxy in a surrogate holographic body. His father Luthen was known for being incredibly ruthless, supplying weapons to all sides in the conflict known as the Virtual Wars. Lucian only took over as CEO after his father was murdered at the hands of a virtual reality death cult known as the Awakened.
==Appearance==
Lucian is a tall, thin bald man with cybernetics implants on the right side of his face. His eyes are a shade of gold, a trait that he inherited from his father.
==Personality==
Lucian finds himself in the shadow of his father who had a notorious ruthless reputation for seeking out the most efficient, optimized profit. When Lucian first took his father's place, he made an active attempt to improve Virtuoso's publicity by portraying himself as a good guy. He wanted to put forth the idea that he was the hero bringing an end to the [[Virtual Wars]] and succeeding where the [[Federation of Stellar Systems]] failed. He sees his own actions as ends that justify the means in order to bring economic prosperity to the galaxy.
==History==
Lucian inherited the company at age 21 after his father was murdered by a member of the [[Awakened]] cult. Already, he was faced with many challenges as his father's colleagues all looked down on him for supposedly being very optimistic and naive.


Lucian was previously married to a woman named Farsiris Indago with whom he had a son named Cyrus. As a teen, Cyrus died in a tragic accident and Lucian diverted a significant amount of company funds to bring him back to life by uploading Cyrus' consciousness into a VR avatar. This was only made possible by hiring a new CFO named Ezekial Hughs, a man with ties to the [[Hands of Midas]] gang. With the criminal underground now seeping its way into taking control of society, Lucian had trouble maintaining ties with his family. Lucian cut off ties and divorced his wife in an attempt to protect her and Cyrus from blackmail to only mixed results. His belief of ends justifying the means was called into question.
Lucian seeks to improve the image of Virtuoso by making them out to be heroes in the Virtual Wars, taking the credit for resolving the conflict and bringing peace to the galaxy. He is incredibly ambitious and believes that Virtuoso is fated to exist not just for profit, but to also play a greater role in the next steps of human evolution. He genuinely believes that running Virtuoso as both a megacorporation and an all-encompassing galactic government is the key to bettering the lives of the galaxy's citizens.


Despite these actions, he knew he had a business to run and became committed to the ideas Virtuoso stood for. Over time, he eventually began to believe his own propaganda and developed delusions of grandeur. In reality, he is secretly terrified of the company's shareholders and their connections to the underworld as he perfectly knows very well what they'll do to his family if the company fails to meet profit margins.
Lucian is quite the enigmatic, charismatic figure. He has a way of words which make him out to be incredibly charming and likeable. It is not quite obvious whether he's friend or foe to the PHIA Phorce, but nevertheless, he certainly harbors a few skeletons in the closet which can make one skeptical to trust him.
