The Light of Faith can identify anyone who has reached their Destiny. It is rumored that they are the cause of saintly halos.

=== Seal of God ===
Those with this attunement will be able to tell whether a person has been initiated into a . . . well, the intent was "a divine religion". However, it seems that it works for Buddhists and even worshippers of some ethereal pantheons, too. Use the check digit to indicate how much information is revealed: for example, a 1 would reveal if someone was initiated as a monotheist, a 3 would indicate that he was a Christian and finding out that the person was a baptized Southern Baptist would require a 5 or 6.
By making a Perception roll at -3, the angel can also tell whether or not the subject has utterly rejected this initiation (simple indifference will not register; also, this attunement will not indicate how strongly the subject believes in the religion that he or she was initiated into). Those individuals that have been initiated into more than one religion will simply reveal the current faith that he or she follows, unless the new faith is not one that would normally be detected by this attunement: thus, it's usually useless for casually discovering Hellsworn.
Laurence and Khalid have jointly worked out this attunement and are experimenting with it among their servitors. They weren't expecting the ability to detect certain non-divine religions, and aren't sure yet whether it's a bug or a feature. Neither would probably be too welcome to hear the suggestion that the attunement, possibly, doesn't have any bugs at all . . . .
== Relations ==
=== Archangelic Opinions ===
Christopher: Children need faith, and Khalid's ways are subtle and entirely appropriate for dealing with children. He needs to be less narrow-minded, though ~ they need faith, not religion. (It is good to look after the children, but they should also be taught faith, and obedience to God. Christopher is generous and kind, but perhaps a bit too lax for my liking.)
Litheroy: I understand why he forbids his angels to reveal their true natures, but our work is nearly the opposite of one another. He inspires faith without evidence, and I reveal evidence to inspire faith. We are complementary, in an odd way, but our servitors don't work well together. (Revealing the truth is valuable work, but a mortal's faith is often stronger when he has only that to rely on. Litheroy serves God well, but I prefer that his servants stay out of the way of mine.)
Zadkiel: I admire his tenaciousness in defending his people and his faith, but he should expand his scope. Muslims aren't the only people worth protecting. (One could ask for no one better to help defend the faithful. Blessed be Zadkiel, for she is unflinching in the face of evil.)
=== Princely Opinions ===
Alaemon: Keep believers uncertain, obscure the facts behind the prophecies, confuse the truth with conflicting gospels. That's the way to keep Khalid and his followers at odds with the rest of the Host. (The Quran says that no two people can conspire without God being present. He knows all things and will reveal all on Judgment Day. Alaemon collects petty little secrets that will ultimately be useless to him.)
Fleurity: Who is this religious fanatic to claim to speak for God, and deny me access to his flock? He should allow people the freedom to choose! (All drugs are forbidden to the faithful. Fleurity is anathema. He openly defies God, and he should die.)
Furfur: T________ archangel ain't got no style, but the Hezballah, they're hardcore! (Clearly, he has chosen the wrong side and revels in his choice. Let him caper about, until his final judgment. The erstwhile "Demon Prince of Rock and Roll" is a small threat.)
Magog: He trapped me beneath the sands for millennia! He did that to me! First, I will spark unspeakable violence among his followers, and then I . . . will . . . DESTROY . . . HIM! (The archangel of Stone and I buried Magog in the desert, and he'd be there still if I had not been weak. Magog is my sin, for which I must atone. Let him be an example of what horrors you can unleash if you allow your faith to waver.)
Mammon: I love the faithful . . . they are sheep who thank God for the privilege of being sheared. As for Khalid and his pious claims of Islamic virtues . . . who rules the Middle East? It's a three-letter word and it's not spelled G-O-D, it's spelled O-I-L. (Every religion teaches the evils of greed and encourages charity. What better evidence is there that Mammon is the enemy of God? He is one of our most ancient foes, and his eradication will be one of our greatest victories.)
