Seraphim

The Seraphs, from top to bottom, oldest to youngest.

The Darkness (uncle)

Nephilim (nephews, nieces, and children)

**Seraphim** are a higher class of angel, above normal angels such as Emmanuel and Kemuel, but lower in status than archangels. Their exact role in Heaven is unclear.

## History

Seraphs were the angels that came after the Archangels. Seraphs are incredibly powerful and we're created in this order: Nathaniel, Hannah, Gadreel, Uriel, Ariel, Raziel, Aaron. Nathaniel and his younger twin-sister Hannah were created almost immediately after God and the Archangels defeated The Darkness, while the other Seraphs were created a few thousand or so years afterward's and all other angels including Cherubim, Grigori, Medicus, and Custos, were created millions of years or even billions of years later. Nathaniel and Hannah helped raise the angels along with God and the Archangels. The Seraphs were/are incredibly close growing up in Heaven and when it came to being family, Nathaniel and Hannah were the closest, but when it came to being brothers or even best friends, Nathaniel and Raziel seemed to be the closest. As twins, Nathaniel and Hannah were always the closest siblings in Heaven, even closer than Nathaniel and Raziel. But after she was dishonored and imprisoned, Nathaniel and Raziel became closer and Nathaniel was later dishonored and fell from grace due to his love for humanity and lack of caring for heavens rules.

In Lore Seraphim also possess four large wings that are said to hide themselves. In lore, it is said no human was able to see what a Seraph looked like or if they did they didn't live to tell the tale.

## Powers & Abilities

As a stronger class of angels, Seraphim innately possess all the standard powers and more abilities than regular angels, even at a higher level. Unlike lower angels, they don't lose any of their powers after they are cut off from Heaven.

* **Angelic Possession** - A seraph requires a vessel to manifest physically on Earth. Like all angels, they must bear their consent.
* **Immortality** - A seraph, like all angels, by nature, can't die by any natural means of death. They are impervious to bullets, knives, bombs, and any other conventional human ways of killing.
* **Super Stamina** - A seraph never tires or gets fatigued. A seraph does not require food, sleep, or oxygen.

* **Super Strength** - As a higher class of angel endowed with greater strength, seraphs are extremely strong. They can lift at least 1 ton, and they can easily overpower and destroy most beings. However, their strength is not a match for an archangel.
* **Biokinesis** - A seraph is able to cure a human turning into a monster.
* **Telepathy** - A seraph can easily read the minds of humans. They can also hear angel radio.
* **Dream Walking** - Nathaniel was able to go into Lisa's dream.
* **Pyrokinesis** - A seraph can generate and manipulate fire.
* **Healing** - A seraph can heal others from severe wounds. Uriel was able to regrow a cut off finger on a human and heal gunshot wounds with ease.
* **Resurrection** - A seraph can bring back the dead as seen when Nathaniel effortlessly resurrected Lisa and Lindsay minutes after they died.
* **Invisibility** - A seraph can become invisible to humans.
* **Smiting** - As all angels, a seraph is able to burn out the eyes of humans, monsters, and demons, killing them.
* **Regeneration** - Like all angels, Seraphs can heal from injuries inflicted upon them. However, wounds caused by angelic weapons take longer to heal.
* **Reality Warping** - A seraph possesses reality warping abilities.
* **Mental Manipulation** - A seraph can manipulate, erase or restore a person's perceptions and memories of events.
* **Soul Reading/Channeling** -Nathaniel had to touch a humans soul in order to save a group of people, although the person died.
* **Power Negation** - A seraph is capable of removing powers from empowered humans, however, it can leave them mentally damaged to do so and is very painful to the individual losing the power.
* **Holy Light** - As a seraph, Nathaniel was able to emit red light fatal to other beings, particularly demons and monsters. Hannah was able to emit a bright pink light and Uriel a bright violet light.
* **Vessel Locking** - A seraph can hold a demon in smoke form as if it was tangible and force the demon to return to its vessel.
* **Animal Communication** - Nathaniel was able to speak to and understand a cat.
* **Wings** - Like other angels, Seraphim can display their wings in a show of intimidation.
* **Mental Projection** - Nathaniel was able to appear to Lisa without actually being there.
* **Mind Control** - By touching his hand to a student, he was able to talk to him and told him to go away.
	+ **Apporting** - A seraph can teleport a human or monster.
	+ **Chronokinesis** - A seraph can travel through time, with greater ease than lower angels, and they are also able to send others either forward or backward's through time, with the same ease. They can send others through time without having to travel with them as well. They can also bend (freezing and speeding up) the time.
	+ **Teleportation** - A seraph can teleport from one place to another instantly.
	+ **Flight -** Like all angels, Seraphs can fly outside a vessel, but can only levitate while in a vessel.
	+ **Electrokinesis -** Nathaniel can generate and manipulate electricity as he did when manifesting before Lisa and Morgan.
	+ **Power Granting -**  Nathaniel was able to give himself and Emmanuel the ability to sing, play guitar, and speak French.
	+ **Molecular Combustion -** With a snap of his fingers, Nathaniel was able to to make Ezekiel explode. Hannah and Gadreel also displayed this ability.
	+ **Super Speed -** Nathaniel was able to use super speed to grab and snap a person's throat.
	+ **Etc...**

## Weaknesses

* **Primordial Entities** - Death can kill a seraph, even when one was enhanced by millions of souls. God, the creator of all angels, can kill and resurrect them at will, as well as block their powers or upgrading their powers.
* **Higher Angels** - An Archangel can easily kill a seraph.
* **Angel Blades**  - An angel blade is able to kill a seraph.
	+ **Angel-killing bullets** - A bullet made by melting one or more angel blades could seriously injure a seraph or kill them if they were shot fatally.
* **Angel banishing sigil** - When activated, such a mark can temporarily banish a seraph. If the seraph is wounded, it might kill the seraph.
* **Common Angelic Weaknesses** - A seraph is vulnerable against Holy Oil, Heaven's weapons, etc.
* **Lance of Michael** - It fatally poisons any angel stabbed with it, including a seraph, as it was designed by Michael to kill his brother Lucifer, the second most powerful archangel.
