Hadariel

Hadariel was the former Guardian of the Sun Gate. In the New World he acts as a diplomat trying to spread peace among the fledgling nations.

## Appearance

Hadariel is a very charismatic-looking character: a typical knight in shinning armor. Hadariel's most distinct feature are his four wings, with which he typically disguises as a feathery cape.

## Personality

*"Sit down and talk... and ultimately forgive. That's all is needed for peace to happen."*

Hadariel is a passionate man if there ever was one. Full of pride and self loathing, having lived the life of a soldier has brought great internal conflict within Hadariel. Despite his talent with a blade he feels he's betrayed himself and his role as an Angel having personally contributed to mankind's twisted descent into savagery.

Having awoken with true sentients in the New World Hadariel developed survivors guilt and continuously struggles with coming to terms with how many NPCs and Player's he's killed back in Yggdrasil.

To cope with his guilt Hadariel has taken to drinking alcohol and later developed a skill with brewing it. While his heavenly physiology denies him getting drunk, he continues the repetition of drinking, finding it somewhat soothing.

His travels as a diplomat also seems to sooth the Archangel of his woes, but in his inability to prevent war only seems to deepen his preconceived notion of failure.

While trying to spread peace among the warring nations of the New World, the Angel has shown little regard and respect to others and their laws. Often speaking as bluntly as possible.

## Abilities and Power

Hadariel is one of the strongest beings within the Helios fortress, with the highest defense among the NPCs. He is a trained and seasoned warrior, handling a blade almost seems like second nature to the Angel. His skills and spells revolve around the healing and protection of himself and allies.

As an Angel and even further an Archangel. He is granted a number of heavenly boons. He is gifted with perfect flight and is able to conceal his wings at any given moment; typically in the form of a feathery cape. Hadariel is also resistant to cold, acid and low-level petrification spells. The Angel also appears to be immune to most poisons, as he can't get drunk from alcohol.

Additionally, he appears to be able to gift others with his feathers which offers that individual protection from most forms of physical damage. This degree of protection is linked to that angel's power.

## Trivia

There is no need for Hadariel to be armed with a shield which would only weight him down. He can use his own wings and transmute them into a protective shield at will.
