In Heaven, Araphel was known to bring peace and comfort those afraid of the dark, as his role was to represent and bring forth God's darkness. There's not much known about the Nightbringer, as he tends to keep his life a mystery, but he is known to oversee the Dreamtimes. When the first living thing in the universe dreamt, it created the realm, and as long as something in the universe dreams, it will continue to exist.

## Appearance

His hair is as black as a moonless night, falling in soft waves around his face and down his back. His eyes are deep blue like the midnight sky, they hold a sense of mystery and power that can be both alluring and unnerving. He wears a long black tunic with white details and white trim that contrasts sharply with his black hair and eyes, and a glowing halo made of moonlight crowns on his head. Stars adorn his robe, twinkling like diamonds in the night sky, and his skin seems to glow softly, as it reflects the light of distant stars. There is a calm, peaceful aura about him that draws people in and makes them feel safe in his presence.

## Personality

He is an introverted being who prefers to spend time alone and only prefers to hang out with a few beings like his angelic siblings or a few gods he trusts. He is mostly quiet and only speaks when he has something important to say, often using a soft and measured tone that sounds like the rustling of leaves in the wind. He is highly intelligent and thoughtful, with a deep appreciation for knowledge and the mysteries of the universe. He spends long periods of time absorbed in his own thoughts or imagination, pondering the great questions of life and contemplating the wonders of the cosmos. Despite his reclusive nature, Araphel is decisive in his actions and choices, preferring to carefully weigh his options before making a decision.

However, there are exceptions to his immortality, with some factors being able to harm and ultimately kill him.
