Angelo

Angelo's Father

## History

### Early Life

Hundreds of years ago, when Angelo was still alive and just a young common Angel, he left to the Surface for his Act of Charity. While he doesn't remember the details anymore Angelo claims that there was some quarrel concerning a sick old man and some property. Using a miracle, Angelo was able to discover proof that helped settle the argument. Angelo also believes guns were involved at some point but he doesn't remember. Regardless, he earned his wings after settling this dispute upon realizing that he wanted to protect what he believed was right (Inky Extra's Ch 107).

After completing his Act of Charity, Angelo began working as a lawyer in the Upper's courts. One day there was a case brought to the courts about an Angel-in-training who was killed while out on patrol and a Demon named Triphyo that was directly involved in the incident somehow had been brought in for trial. Angelo was assigned to be Triphyo's defense but, finding Triphyo to be too untrusting of him to give him any answers about the incident, Angelo investigated the scene of the crime himself. At the scene Angelo was shocked to find what looked like an accidental landslide. When he told this to Triphyo the Demon was shocked to hear he actually believed it was an accident. Triphyo informed Angelo that it had been an accident since, as a plant Demon, he would have needed to set up roots in the area in order to cause something like that landslide and he had only been passing through. While a higher Demon might not have needed to set roots up Triphyo simply wasn't magically powerful enough to cause the incident. Angelo promised to defend the Demon's innocence no matter what. However, at the trial new evidence was brought to light. Someone had supposedly found roots at the scene of the landslide but Angelo was positive they weren't there when he investigated. Despite Angelo's best efforts Triphyo was found guilty and sentenced to death. Unable to stand seeing an innocent get executed Angelo betrayed the Upper to help Triphyo escape. While Triphyo did successfully escape Angelo was caught and became a Fallen Angel for his betrayal (Inky Extra's Ch 107).

At some point after his Fall, The Devil approached Angelo in an attempt to trick him into signing away his soul, but Angelo was able to escape (Inky Extra's Ch 107).

During his time on the Surface, Angelo met an old bat named Sheila who worked as a local seamstress. She was Angelo's neighbor and the two of them soon became close friends. Angelo eventually discovered that Sheila's nephew had Ink Illness. Angelo had a gift for healing and decided to use a somewhat questionable spell to take the nephew's Ink Illness into himself. While the nephew was not cured after the use of this spell Angelo's magic did seem to put the disease into a remission of sorts. Angelo, on the other hand, succumbed to the Ink Illness only a few short months after using the spell. After his death Angelo haunted Sheila and her nephew until the nephew finally succumbed to his own Ink Illness as an old man (Inky Extra's Ch 107).

Eventually, Angelo began to travel around the world as a ghost seeking out those with Ink Illness since they were the only ones who could see him and stayed with them until they succumbed to the illness. Angelo haunted dozens of people over the years, including Oswald's wife Ortensia. Angelo only found Ortensia near the end of her time with Ink Illness, however he did see some of the Circus's efforts to find her a cure. After Ortensia succumbed to the Illness, Angelo heard that Dr. Oddswell was gathering the sick and began to follow him. Angelo followed Dr. Oddswell until Bendy and Boris arrived at which time he then switched to following them as they continued their quest because he found it more entertaining to watch (Inky Extra's Ch 107).

## Character Description

He wears a white vest and tie with light dress pants. Angelo's entire body drips ink, presumably because he died of Ink Illness (Ch 98).
