Lusamine: Difference between revisions

Lusamine is the main antagonist of {{g|Sun and Moon}}, running the [[Aether Foundation]] as their president. Early on in the [[generation VII]] titles, not much is known about the character until her meet with the player at [[Aether Paradise]]. Lusamine is described as a lovely beautiful woman who wishes for the protection of all Pokémon, both in and out of [[Alola]]. Due to this, Lusamine can be seen as quite motherly, loving all those hurt Pokémon as if they were her own children. She seems to have a knack for fashion, stating that her looks are a result of the right outfit and style, and is unhesitant to suggest changes to another's wardrobe <ref>[[Lusamine/Quotes|Lusamine]]: ''"Oh, you! The right style does wonders, you know. And, Hau, your style is a bit wanting, hm? I'll have to take you out sometime and help you pick a smashing outfit."'' ({{game4|SMUSUM}})</ref>  

Lusamine's kindness eventually changed over the course of the Alola-based games, becoming obsessed with [[Ultra Beast]]s and even putting her own children in neglect. During this facade, Lusamine appears to care not for anyone that does not give her her own positive attention, blaming her own kids and their [[friend]]s for her own rude neglectful behavior. This has also resulted in abuse of Pokémon, storing them in her trophy room on Aether Paradise under cryostasis. While under the influence of {{p|Nihilego}}, her emotions become much more abrasive and violent, even willing to lash out attack her [[Lillie|daughter]] and the {{player}}. Lusamine's daughter, [[Lillie]], makes the statement in Sun and Moon that Lusamine was once a very kindhearted woman before her obsessiveness nature with Ultra Beasts had taken over. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, her relationship with Nihilego is removed, but her obsession remains, looking into the protection of the Alola [[region]] and being unmindful of the harm she has caused to others. Her destructive and abusive nature had caused both her children, [[Lillie]] and [[Gladion]] to leave, each stealing a Pokémon from the foundation and leaving Paradise.

Lusamine's had a husband by the name of [[Mohn]] who had previously worked at the Aether Foundation before his disappearance. The two had had two children, their son [[Gladion]] and their daughter, [[Lillie]]. Before the start of the Alola-based games, it is known that Lusamine had treated her children with love and care, with Lillie particularly mentioning a time where her and Lusamine had once played out in the rain together and getting sick. She is known to have dressed both Gladion and Lillie in clothes they did not wish to wear. This had resulted in Lillie's outfit resembling that of a Nihilego. Lusamine's father, the previous Aether President, was a wealthy man and was known to love Pokémon, creating Aether to protect them.<ref name="father"/> Lusamine lives in the mansion that resides on Aether Paradise.

Lusamine is an over 40 year-old woman with long blonde hair.<ref name="age"/> Her hair falls behind her back and reaches down towards her knees. Her hair is straight and divided into several sections forming blunt ends that wrap around her body. Bangs falls over left eye. Her stock art displays several purple strands. She has a ponytail that sits on top of her hair, topped with a dark green gemstone that is framed with gold-metal holding the gemstone, acting as a hair decoration. Lusamine has round, but slanted eyes that are known change shape for expression, displaying thick eye liner when she smiles. Her irises are green with a yellow triangular glare towards the bottom. Her irises lose detail when upset and her eyes become sharper when angry. She has three eyelashes on each eye. Her children take after her platinum-blonde hair color and lime-green eyes.  

Lusamine mainly has a skinnier build, with her legs mostly taking her height. She wears a white-short sleeveless dress that reaches down to her upper thigh. Her collar appears to have no end at her neck and keeps the white, it is cuffed with a gold decoration that wraps around her neck. On her chest is a large dark green gemstone in the shape of a diamond and plated with a gold-metal frame holding said gemstone. Two lines go horizontally across her dress beneath her her chest. While the skirt goes down to her thighs, it is also topped with another translucent yellow frill-like decoration with a cut on the side that drapes down from the bottom line that begins under her chest. Lusamine has a pair of long black and white stockings that reach down to her ankles. Her shoes are high-heeled shoes with an opening on the front, locked with a single strap. The shoes are mainly black with two black gemstones on both sides of each foot. The heels are plated in gold-metal and give her more lift than expected, providing an unnatural height. The soles of these shoes are a pattern-less teal-color. Internally and on the Sun and Moon website, she is simply called '''MOTHER'''.

In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, Lusamine fuses with the [[Ultra Beast]], {{p|Nihilego}}. While it is mainly Nihilego who takes upon a new shape, Lusamine's design is altered as well, Her hair becomes black in color with all previously purple strands turning into blonde. Her hair has elongated and flows, sitting on the bottom of Nihilego's bell. Her irises turn the yellow color that was once previously used for the glare. All previous gemstones and decoration on her outfit vanish from her body, with the yellow frills on her skirt changing to a deep purple color.  The lower half of the main outfit becomes a black color, becoming indistinguishable with her now black and purple leggings that lack any detail and have no shoes. Her arms are hidden behind her hair, but otherwise her shoulders can be seen. Her legs dangle from outside Nihilego's bell.  

Lusamine can control the four front the tentacles on Nihilego's body, with four fingers on each of these tentacles that can bend and grab things such as [[Poké Ball]]s. Lusamine's fainting after fusion is unknown but is assumed to be either by the Pokémon's neurotoxins, the stress of the fusion, or the strain of the [[Z-Power]] that the Nihilego had. This form for the character and Nihilego goes unnamed, however, internally the fusion is referred to as '''MOTHERBEAST'''.
