Name	Nick

Dates	possessed mid 2009
Location	Pine Creek, Delaware
Occupation	Vessel (temporary)
Episode(s)	5.01 Sympathy For The Devil

Nick is a Vessel for Lucifer, however because he isn't the "true" vessel, over time, Nick’s body slowly peals away and over time his body gets more and more degraded. The longer he continues to be occupied by Lucifer the more his body suffers; Nick's body couldn't handle Lucifer's essence. Castiel tells Sam that Nick would be drinking gallons of demon blood in order to be able to host Lucifer </sup> 5.21 Two Minutes To Midnight. Nick was dispossessed in 5.22 Swan Song.

5.01 Sympathy For The Devil

Nick's wife and child have been murdered during a home invasion. As he grieves, he starts hallucinating. Lucifer appears as his wife Sarah and tells him that he is a Vessel, and that Lucifer wants his consent to possess him. Lucifer says he is misunderstood, that he was punished for 'loving God too much". He says that, to let Nick's family be murdered, God must either be uncaring, or a sadist. He tells Nick possession will be painful, but that Lucifer will help him get justice for his family. Nick assents to possession. It has been stated that even though Nick was chosen to be a vessel, he wasn't Lucifer's true vessel (Plan B). Apparently Nick can barely contain lucifer without exploding.
