Prophet

Prophets are special humans of First Man descents who are chosen to be God's mouthpieces in the mortal world, deliverers of the Heavenly Council's instructions, and protectors of humanity from supernatural threats.
==Overview==
In religion, a prophet is an individual who is regarded as being in contact with a divine being and is said to speak on behalf of that being, serving as an intermediary with humanity by delivering messages or teachings from the supernatural source to other people. The message that the prophet conveys is called a prophecy.
Claims of prophethood have existed in many cultures and religions throughout history, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam, ancient Greek religion, Zoroastrianism, Manichaeism, and many others.
==Summary==

==Appearance==
In terms of physical appearance, prophets are practically indistinguishable from any other humans, with no discernible traits that set them apart from others. 
For those who are sensitive to magic, such as gods or faeries, they radiate a celestial aura around them, akin to a royal mantle, which gives them a feeling of superiority and regality unlike that of a monarch.
==Characteristics==
Prophets are extremely important figures within religion and mythology as a whole, not just in the Abrahamic religions. Because of this, they are the ambassadors of Heaven to the mortal world, and thus, require the absolute respect from all mythological factions, as any sign of disrespect toward them can be seen as disrespect against the authority of Heaven itself.
In most cases, chosen prophets have a high-ranked angel assigned to be their guardian angel, in addition to Metatron and Sandalphon who are the patrons of all prophets, and would act as their personal bodyguards and teachers of their newly-gained celestial powers. Any presence of danger will result in interventions from their guardian angel, even if that intervention goes against what a prophet has prophesied.
On certain occasions, one of the Four Great Seraphs will assign themselves to be the guardian angels of those who are "important to the narrative", such as the case with Uriel with the patriarch Abraham or Gabriel with the Muslim prophet Muhammad.
Because of their constant visions and prophetic messages, which are often not comprehensible by human minds, many prophets have been mistakenly diagnosed for having mental disorders, such as schizophrenia or synesthesia. Not to mention, despite their perfect mind, if they pushed their clairvoyant powers to far in order to see secrets forbidden by the Four Great Seraphs, repercussions will happen as they will slowly descend into a spiral of madness, as with the case with the Trojan prophetess Cassandra who prophesied the events of the Book of Revelation.
In addition to their primary duty as mouthpieces of God, they are also the guardians of humanity as a whole from supernatural/unnatural threats. As such, they have been dubbed the "Emperors of Humanity" by the gods due to the powers they possess, which surpass human's natural limitations and are even on-par with the pagan gods. Some of the ancient prophets, such as Moses and Aaron, were stated to even as powerful as the chieftain gods or the primordial gods.
Under certain circumstances, they are also tasked with restoring the natural order back into its intended balance, often by fixing any mistake and/or damage caused by the Three Factions in their conflicts. In fact, for many generations of prophets, all of their missions consisted of nothing more but to restore the damage caused by the Great War from all across Creation. The most notable fix known throughout the supernatural world is perhaps the reconstruction of the entire Solar System, with Earth, in particular, was turned from a flat and disk-like shape to its current form.
On several occasions, they are also tasked with the duty of being law-enforcers, to remind the pagan pantheons or mythological factions of their place within the supernatural hierarchy: Beneath the Three Factions, or rather, beneath the Abrahamic Heaven. However, according to Azazel, this last one is only expected of the prophets to do, not a necessary must.
==The Choosing==
The process of choosing a prophet is an extremely mysterious and tightly-guarded secret that not even the Seraphim have knowledge of, as only God, the Divine Aeons, and the Four Seraphs know how a prophet can be chosen from all the possible candidates. However, as the guardian angels of all prophets, Metatron and Sandalphon may also have an idea on how one might be chosen.
The angels themselves also seem to have a subconscious knowledge of all prophets or prophet candidates, though due to the Enochian laws, they are forbidden from telling anyone, especially the candidates themselves, before the Heavenly Council let out any official announcements. However, according to Irina, only high-ranked and/or experienced reincarnated angels can see them, as newly-reincarnated ones like her are too much of a liability for the Heavenly Council to risk.
==Population==
According to Azazel, there have been thousands of prophets throughout the ages, all dated from the antediluvian era with Adam and Eve. However, due to many reasons, from cultural biases and discriminations to simple mistranslations, many of their names were erased from official records and their prophetic works destroyed. In addition, due to ignorance, many medieval prophets were mistaken as witches and/or heretics and were killed by the Church, which the Vatican considered to be one of the greatest stains in their history.
Ever since the Four Great Seraphs took over as leaders of Heaven, however, certain changes have been made regarding the prophets. As Michael had decided the Age of Gods had ended and Heaven would let mankind decide for themselves with their free will, all contacts between the two realms will be extremely limited, and for each generation, there would only be a maximum of thirty-six prophets at most, with twelve prophets chosen at first and a new one will be chosen after one of the original twelve die.

==Trivia==
*While the official term for any work created by a prophet is prophecy, they are mainly referred to as "holy scriptures" to differentiate them with actual prophecies.
*According to Metatron, the angels can communicate to the prophets via a microphone in a special room located in the Sixth Heaven.
*Although they are affiliated with the Abrahamic religions, being religious isn't a requirement all prophets needed to have, as there have been multiple pagans and atheists chosen to be prophets based on their innate potential and powers across the millennia.
*The Islamic prophet Muhammad is the last prophet to deliver God's teachings and instructions, as all prophets following him mainly act as restorers of the Great War's damages, protectors for humanity, and creators of holy scriptures.
**Because of this, the Quran remained as the most detailed religious scripture to ever be created by a prophet.
