Uriel

## Dissonance

Uriel forbids servitors of Purity to ignore corruption in any form ~ all corruption must be purified or destroyed. (And demons claim that they just don’t get a chance to Fall before their fellows kill them.) Uriel defined “corruption” as dissonance or Discord. Diabolicals are also considered “corruption,” as are any ethereal spirits in a human dreamscape or on the corporeal plane.

## Choir Attunements

None of Uriel’s servitors can Fall. In theory they can accumulate Discords like a demon, but they’ll usually be killed first.

### Seraph

Seraphim of Purity have a heightened ability to detect Symphonic disturbances ~ whenever making a Perception roll to detect such a disturbance, they are automatically successful (if success is possible, i.e., if the base target number is 2 or higher), but roll for the check digit or Interventions.

### Cherub (Restricted)

Uriel’s cherubim are pure trackers; they do not need to make physical contact to attune themselves to something. They can attune themselves to the trail their target left behind. This can be any physical remains, from a fingerprint to a discarded candy wrapper. (In the Marches, this can be a problem.) They do not necessarily know who or what they are attuning themselves to, but once they’re on the trail, they can follow it to the ends of the Earth . . . and beyond. If the target leaves the plane, then when the cherub gets to the location where this took place, he must make a new resonance roll. If he fails, he’s lost the trail. If successful, he can continue following his quarry, whether to the corporeal realm, the Marches, Heaven, or Hell ~ even if it’s been longer than a minute!

Since the objects of their attunements are often prey, cherubim of Purity get a bonus, equal to the sum of the attuned person’s dissonance and Discord (but not Dread), when making a Will roll to dissolve a bond.

### Ofan

Uriel’s ofanim were creatures of pure motion, ill-suited for the corporeal plane. During combat the Wheels of Purity remain capable of attack or full evasion, even if they have taken celestial or skill-based movement.

### Eloah

The elohim of Purity can look at a celestial and automatically learn his level of dissonance as well as what Discords he has. A small number stayed with the Tsayadim, but most surrendered this attunement and joined Dominic.

### Malak

Malakim of Purity were the scourges of Heaven ~ they add a target’s dissonance to the accuracy of their attacks, and the target’s Discord to their power. (Fortunately for ethereals, their Dread level doesn’t count as either dissonance or Discord!)

### Kuriotes

Uriel only permitted his kuriotates to possess willing hosts who had been ritually purified. However, once admitted, his Dominations could remain for months rather than days.  A very small number stayed with the Tsayadim. Most joined Gabriel, Michael, or Novalis.

### Mercurian

The mercurians of Purity were charged with discrediting (or removing) human heretics and sorcerers. They can automatically tell whether or not someone is Symphonically aware. Their very nature made it impossible for them to follow Uriel after he was declared a heretic. They have scattered among the various Superiors, though there are large populations in service to David, Eli, Khalid, and Laurence.

### Grigori

Uriel has no grigori, he saw to it that they were all wiped out during the Flood. Prior to that they had been able to add their Celestial Forces any roll made to resist infernal or ethereal abilities.

The grigori of Uriel oppose Beelzebub (purity vs corruption)

### Bright Lilu

Uriel does not trust Lilith or her creations. He would most likely reject any such petition out of hand. However, if he could be convinced, it would only be by someone so pure and loyal that they would join the Tsayadim in exile. These Givers may impose Binding Oaths instead of accepting Geas hooks.

### Ohr

Uriel no longer has any ohrot. Those who remained in Heaven joined other Superiors (mostly Dominic, Laurence, Gabriel, and Zadkiel). Those who left Heaven are now gremlins or worse.

## Servitor Attunements

### Divine Surgery

Divine Surgery may only be performed on a willing target. The surgeon selects one Discord. That Discord is entirely removed from the target. However, the target also loses 1 Force from the corresponding realm plus an additional Force for every 3 ranks of Discord so removed.

### Hunt

This attunement grants to a Servitor the ability to unerringly track any being he has detected corrupting the Symphony ~ i.e., generating more than 10 notes of disturbance in any given ripple, however great the distance between them. He may keep track of a number of his opponents equal to his Ethereal Forces.

### Ripples

More perfectly attuned to the Symphony, the angel adds his Celestial Forces to his Perception for purposes of detecting ripples in the Symphony . . . and subtracts the same amount from the degree of disturbance his own actions cause. (No disturbance can be reduced below 1, however.)
