Adam is the very first human male, simultaneously created with Lilith and then left to their own devices in the Garden of Eden. Being for the most part unaware of many things, the two humans spent most of their time in each other’s company, which led to eventual fighting. A lot of fighting, sometimes. But they always made up about it, fights often ending as quickly as they began, and living continued contented.
Until one day it seemed Lilith had taken it too far, and she was to be torn away from Eden ( from Adam ). Despite being told by Him that it was for the best, the first man couldn’t agree. The seeds of doubt are planted in this moment.
Incredibly distraught over losing Lilith once she had been exiled from the Garden, Adam for some time lost a good deal of his usual energy, finding himself unbearably lonely no matter what he did. He even took notice of the angel guarding Eden, though he had the vague understanding he probably should not know the other was there. He never did ask why he felt so. Eventually, his Father seemed to take some sort of pity on the human when he had fallen asleep, because one day he woke to a new companion beside him.
She was less argumentative with him than Lilith, but not really any more agreeable. Just more…quiet about it. Still, his spirits quickly rose with the new company, and he even forgot about the guardian outside the Garden, the information falling to the back of his mind as no longer important because he was no longer alone.
Existence was happy and content with her until the Apple. The one rule they really had, and out of a mixture of curiosity and wanting to please Eve, he followed in her choice to take the forbidden fruit. He wasn’t willing to risk being left alone again. When they were removed from the Garden because of it, Eve was heartbroken because it was home. Adam was furious. He was the one who convinced her to fight to return to their home, the strongest of their children to join the fight.
He became a warrior, falling in beside his family to try taking back what had until now been theirs. It was, in hindsight, very foolish, and resulted in many deaths of their children despite the few angels they were able to fight back against. This was the spark for the civil war between angels, some siding with Lucifer and his choice, some with Michael, and a select few with the two humans who had been corrupted and left closer to being angels than ever.
The numbers were not worth the trade, and the secondary rebellion within Heaven was quickly hushed up and hidden away. While Eve and their children were banned to Purgatory, Adam was thrown into the Cage and branded for his shame. To prevent him from further planning with Eve or finding Lilith again, to keep his rebellion sealed away as a secret and burying the truth as easily as they had been removed from the Garden.
