Castiel

**Castiel**, sometimes referred to as **Cass**, was an angel of the Host of Heaven.

## History

Castiel has existed since before humanity, and was indeed part of the garrison assigned to the Earth while humanity was evolving. In 363,000,000 BCE, Michael himself advised Castiel not to step on a fish that had evolved to walk on land, as God had great plans for that fish -- eventually, its evolutionary path would lead to humanity.

Despite this great age, Castiel was still considered a young angel during Lucifer's Rebellion. Castiel was terrified by Lucifer, and therefore did not join him and remained with his garrison on Earth. He remained stationed there for centuries and bore witness to many events -- Cain's murder of Abel, the fall of Sodom and Gomorrah, the destruction of the Tower of Babel, David defeating Goliath, and many more.

However, following the death of Jesus Christ, Castiel was recalled to Heaven. He remained there until 1901 CE. He was sent with a group of other angels to hunt down Akobel for fathering a nephilim with Lily Sunder. Castiel listed off the crimes of Akobel before the subsequent execution.

Castiel was put in command of his own garrison after the angel who would become Anna Milton fell.
