I think Lucius's role in this is very interesting. I mean, what he tells Harry about the mirror is pretty damn close to what Dumbledore told him in canon--just said in a different way:
But in this case, that's not the most important reason not to have meddled; it's more to do with the false images that artifact produces. You continue to dwell on them, I see. My advice is to put the whole affair from your mind. It is fruitless to spend your time dreaming of impossibilities. Men have driven themselves mad doing so.
Lucius is completely filling the Dumbledore role of father figure/advisor for Harry. Now, it's always been my opinion that Lucius (even book Lucius), while being a murderer, bigot and general asshole besides, still really loves his child and family. At this point in the game I'm placing Pansy and Harry in his "family", so I'm very intrigued to see what will happen with them.
You guys. This game is making me love Lucius even more than I already did. Not good. Haha.
