** Of course, this trope is also in full effect between a warrior-oriented Dragonborn and a mage-oriented Lucien, though no matter what class Lucien ends up specializing as, he still remains a brainy scholar no matter what.

Lucien comes with a couple of {{Companion Specific Sidequest}}s, and as a nerdy scholar of nature and history, he starts out as a quite vulnerable NonActionGuy and is rather helpless against the threats of Skyrim, but through a training system, the Dragonborn have the option to shape him into a more formidable combatant, and have relatively great freedom in moulding him into a mighty [[FighterMageThief warrior, mage, rogue,]] or some combination of the three. In addition Lucien is an opinionated and educated fellow, and will offer his own academic insight and commentary on the game's main quest (being capable of holding Creator/BioWare-style conversation with several other NPC followers), the major [=DLCs=] quest-lines, several side-quests, and even several pieces of the Creation Club DLC and some of the more popular mods out there. Joseph Russell have stated that he plans to expand greatly upon these features as he develops and builds upon the mod.

The first version of the mod was released in 2018. Joseph Russell's page about Lucien, and information about his abilities and compatibilities, can be found [[https://josephrussellauthor.com/Lucien.html here]].

!!Trope:
* DeadpanSnarker: Lucien have his own opinions on both some of the Dragonborn and other followers' stranger or questionable actions, and he has no problem with making quite pointed comments on them.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Lucien admits upfront that he takes a lot more after his father, than his mother. His father being a scholar much like himself.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Lucien's parents fits into this. His mother is an accomplished officer and though-as-nails veteran in the Imperial Legion, having seen her fair share of combat, while his father is a NonActionGuy scholar.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Due to Lucien having a large amount of unique crossover dialogue and party banter with other mod follower, VideoGame/{{Inigo}}, they develop this relationship if they both are in the player's party. Most often their dynamic takes the shape of StraightManAndWiseGuy, with Lucien being the former and Inigo the latter, although Lucien often proves that he is NotSoAboveItAll and more than happy and eager to play along with some of Inigo's stranger ideas.
* SincerestFormOfFlattery: Russell have cited the VideoGame/{{Inigo}} mod as a major inspiration for Lucien and his expanded functionality.
* TheSmartGuy: Lucien is quite informed about Tamrielic history, even of the more esoteric kind, and is more than happy to offer the Dragonborn some of his insight if they ask.
* TheWorldIsJustAwesome: Quite a bit on Lucien's emergent comments are on the beauty of Skyrim's landscapes.
