Is Lasciel really a fallen angel?

She is by definition a fallen since she is bound in the Denarius. That could change if it served the convenience of the story. But Butcher would have to tell us.
Arjan:
There is also post biblical stories and art and non christian or even non abrahamic traditions. also Jim is a god in his own world, if he wants to add to the stories he very well can do so.
If you look for Lasciel on the internet your hits are all about the dresden files, there is no outside source for her story as far as I can find. Jim needed a female fallen angel to stand for temptation and here she is.

Maybe she just fell in with a bad crowd and it was peer pressure like with Crowley (actually I think that several Fallen got intrigued with aspects of the human condition, like Namshiel and magic rather than directly rebelling against the White God). In Laschiels case it appears to be sex and pancakes.

As a noir character she's a trope. The femme fatale leading our hero around by sex. Chaste or wanton. Depending on which serves her purpose at a given point in time. Butcher could have done better.

Pretty sure there was some WOJ that she got exiled for trying to play both sides for her own ends during Lucifer's rebellion. Which kind of explains why her relationship with the other 29 is mostly transactional, rather than being a proper member in the Anduriel/Nic or Imariel/Tessa cabals.
