In his second outfit as well as revealing his white wings on his back in his angel form, Cal wears a light blue and white full bodysuit with a matching sash belt with silver trim.

His third outfit is a contrast to his second outfit as Cal wears a white and silver full-clad of knight armor with an angelic feather motif and blue accents.
