character information
● name: Chloe Decker
● canon: Lucifer
● canon point: The end of 2.18, "The Good, the Bad, and the Crispy"
● age: 35

● (canon) background: Have a wiki link.
● (original) world: N/A

● abilities:

• Immunity ― Due to her status as a 'miracle child' (presumably), Chloe is immune to Lucifer's powers of persuasion (which appeal to the carnal urges in humanity and can draw out peoples' hidden desires). This seems to be specific to Lucifer, as she is affected by other angelic powers, such as when she was still shown to be frozen when time was stopped by Amenadiel.
• Rendering Lucifer vulnerable ― As stated above, because of her status as a miracle child, Chloe can abolish Lucifer's immortality and render him physically vulnerable while he is in her presence. Again, this seems to be specific to Lucifer, as she doesn't appear to be able to neutralize other angelic beings while in their presence.
• Self-defense ― As a cop, she's been trained in self-defense and knows how to take someone down in hand-to-hand combat if necessary.
• Marksmanship ― She's got a great aim with a gun.

● strengths: If there's one thing Chloe Decker is known for, it's that she strives for justice, and with that, her sense of right and wrong. She is completely dedicated to her job as a detective and takes great pride in living her life with utmost integrity. She often notes that she hates the idea of anyone getting away with something they shouldn't, even going so far as to keep investigating a dead-end case when the rest of her coworkers are content to put it to bed. She even gave up being an actress to join the LAPD because she felt she wasn't contributing enough to the betterment of society. As one might expect, she is also very compassionate. Under all of her trust issues and seemingly stiff personality is a truly kind, loving person who wants to see her loved ones happy. As her partner Lucifer states in one episode, every homicide case she works breaks her heart, even if she tries not to show it. She also drops everything she's doing (including a date) at one point to keep Lucifer company after a friend of his dies. Just because she thought he could use a friend. She also frequently voices that she's there as a shoulder to lean on for Lucifer when he needs it.

Her sense of responsibility falls in line with her straight-laced deameanor. She is very by-the-books and does everything in her power to ensure she (and others around her) are following the rules. She will resist anyone pulling her arm or trying to get her to "loosen up," especially when she is on duty.

● weaknesses: While this is technically a strength of hers in most instances, her skepticism often makes her a bit narrow-minded and rigid to other possibilities and point of views. Case in point, she is dogged in her drive to prove that Lucifer is in fact not the Devil himself and often tries to debunk him and his uncanny antics. This is a good trait for a detective to have, surely, but he actually is the Devil. Her inability to look past this skepticism and accept the truth actually leaves her in a box of willful ignorance. This skepticism was also what made her an outcast in her department -- her willingness to chip away at the same case for months on end literally almost ruins her career and ability to find a partner who actually wants to work with her. That, and the fact that she can be mistrustful ― Chloe has been hurt before, and that hurt has led to a lot of trust issues on her part. When one first meets her, she may come across as standoffish and cold, if only because she tends to put up walls. She also becomes very angry and unforgiving if she finds out someone has been disloyal or dishonest, almost to the point of overreacting in some cases. She is also often too comfortable being alone. While her isolation in the department is not self-imposed, she also doesn't actively seek out friendships with others. It isn't until Maze, Ella, and Linda come into her life, via Lucifer, that she actually has meaningful friendships. Others often have to encourage her to let her hair down and relax.
