Artemel

Artemel, also sometimes known as Artisel, is an angel and an agent of Ix. Artemel is a fairly low-ranking angel and does not have a strict go-to human form, but is often used as an emissary, sending messages to humans via artistic expression or snitching on rogue angels such as Caradel.
== Character ==
=== Appearance ===
Artemel's torso and arms are made up of a strange woodlike material, somewhat similar to a flat puppet. They have a metal halo and scissorlike 'wings'. Their 'tail' is made up of three multicoloured 'wooden' cylinders attached by 'rope', with a hook at the end, from which a multicoloured hoop hangs.
Their face is a happy, ever-smiling mask with red cheeks. Despite their black eyes being painted onto the mask, they seem to be able to see. There is nothing under the mask.
=== Personality ===
Artemel is playful but calm, not as mischievous as Caradel but not as detached as Ix. They enjoy creating art to send messages to humans, or just for art's sake. Despite being creative and mellow, Artemel has a snitch's streak, and will rat out rogue or misbehaving angels in exchange for any treat offered.
=== Skills and Abilities ===
Being partially mute, Artemel has an unusual chord, similar to demi-angel Samuel Seelenfreund. By shaking their body rapidly, the three cylinders on their tail produce a clicking and clacking noise that sends everyone who hears it into an artistic frenzy. These frenzies can last several hours, and can manifest in the form of affected persons compulsively painting, writing, drawing, singing, dancing or otherwise artistically expressing themselves.
Artemel's other abilities include flight and superb speed, cutting through the air with their scissorlike 'wings', as well as self-regeneration; if part of their body is damaged or chipped away, they will fashion a new part to replace it. They can also see, hear, and to some degree speak (albeit at a whisper), despite their head being a flat painted mask with nothing behind it.
== History ==
Artemel is said (but never confirmed) to have been created as an angel of creativity, mimicking human craft supplies in their form and bringing creativity wherever they go. Their true origins are unknown.
At somepoint they were assigned as an agent to the great angel Ix. Ix, being incredibly busy, often values Artemel's work in locasing, exposing and ratting out rogue angels such as Caradel. Artemel currently flits around Earth, creating art and helping with the hunt for rogue no-gooders.
== Trivia ==
* Artemel's name is a combination of Artem, Latin for art, and the suffix -el, 'of god'. Similarly, their alternate name Artisel comes from the alternative Artis, Latin for craft.
