History

Lionel Sterling's wife, Maya, died around the time his daughter Belle was born. To add insult to injury, his daughter was born with a serious lung condition that forced him to seek out the help of a demon to save her life.

The demon he called upon was none other that Alcor the Dreambender, who agreed to help- on the condition that he have a place in the Sterling family as Belle's twin brother. Another condition of the deal was that neither he nor Lionel would ever remember making it. Thusly, Dipper would believe himself to be a normal child, and Lionel wouldn't remember him as being anything but.

True to form, Lionel didn't have any recollection of his son being a demon- until, that is, he happened upon a certain book at an auction that served to jog his memory. Even then, he couldn't remember many of the specifics, only that the two of them had made a deal.
