### Portrayed By

Angels are the first creation of the Primordial of light Anu. There duty is to protect creation from malice intent and to preserve human kind from horrors that are unimaginable that humanity would just die of from looking from them. They are the archenemies of the demon kind, and the Fallen angels.

## History

### Archangels

The Archangels were th first seven Angels Anu ever created, making them the strongest among them. Trained and raised by Lucifer, the Archangels were the leaders of Heaven and each of them had a specific function during their early time.

### Training

As time passed, other Angels were born and Anu tasked his oldest children to train them making them ready for future conflicts: each Archangel has a certain group to train, while other Angels were trained by the younger siblings.

### The Eternal Conflict

The Angels fought their first conflict against the Archdemons and their demonic legions: this was the first time the Angels actually had to prove themselves, otherwise they would fall victims of a very powerful opponent. As time passed, their conflict waged upon the universe and it lasted for what seemed an eternity, earning the name the **Eternal Conflict**. However, the Demons started to gain the advantage after Azmodan took and trained some Shedim, gaining to his people the advantage in the skies, making the Angels terrified about the new servants of their opponents.

Ultimately, however, the Angels won the battle, since the Archdemons were constantly at conflict with each other and as such Heaven managed to seal away the seven Archdemons in seven Black Soulstones that were than thrown back in the Black Abyss.

### The Dark War

However, their victory was short lived, especially when a new, much more serious threat came out: the Outer Gods and the Darklings: these dark monstrosities were completely different from the Archdemons and they soon proved far more dangerous since they guided an united army that was in fact guided by a powerful hive mind. In fact, the Outer Gods guided hundreds of monstrosities of all shapes and forms, causing fear and almost death in the heart of brave Angels, making the Archangels forced to use their powers to prevent their younger siblings to fall victims of a terrible corruption.

To make things even worst, the Outer Gods powers were much different than those of the Archangels, who were trained to fight directly, while the Outer Gods and their generals, the Great Old Ones, used their power to destroy the sanity and the mind of their opponents, driving them insane with their dark powers. However, the Angels learned how to protect themselves and soon came the war known as the **Dark War**. Despite everything, however, the Angels still managed to win, but to a price that would later shatter the unity among Angels and change the entire Universe forever.

### War in Heaven

After the war, Lucifer started to slowly change, adopting a darker, more aggressive and ferocious personality: he started to isolate himself and even those very close to him started to be worried about how he pushed everyone of the away, however, they thought it was simply struggle for seeing so many siblings die at the hands of corrupted evil mostrosities that had lived only to destroy and dominate others. However, they saw how much wrong they were after the birth of humanity and Anu's orders to watch over them and guide them.

Lucifer came to see them as barbarians and he challenged and defied Anu's will, bringing also a third of the Angels, Uriel and Samael to his side of the conflict. From this, the **War in Heaven** begun and it would be known as the fratricidal war, since many siblings died at the hands of each other.

In the end, Lucifer was defeated and banished in Hell, trapped in the Frozen Throne, but the Michael and his siblings gound little to celebrate, since they were forced to banish many of their siblings in Hell and to see how they changed, regretting that they were not able to prevent this. Also, they started to see that humanity had been corrupted and that many of the m were siding with evil and Demons.

### The Demonic Invasion

The Angels also witnessed the birth of Half Breeds and how Samael and Lilith turned them into a weapon, forming a powerful army composed by all kind of creatures that were unlike anything the world had ever seen. Above all, there were not just Nephilim, but also Cambion and many other species had started to spawn these half human hybrids. All of them had a thing in common: their powers were greater than those of their parents and they were capable to cause great harm to humanity, since many of them were raised in a harsh and difficult enviroment.

By four thousand years after the birth of humanity, Samael lunched a massive attack against the Earth with the intention to wipe out all humanity, forcing the Angels to come again, but the battle proved incredibly difficult and there would be little success, since by now there were thousands of Half Breeds too powerful to be controled. Despite this, the Angels of Heaven won again and Samael was castreted and Lilith sterelised, making sure they would never had any other children.

### The Deluge

To destroy many Half Breeds, Michael and the other Archangels created a terrible rain that would later be known as the Deluge, which wiped out almost the entire Half Breed species, but it also brought humanity close to extinction. However, many Half Breeds survived and they went rogue and hidden, since troubles for them were not over.

### The Half Breeds Purge

In fact, the Angels started to visit Earth regullary to kill Half Breeds and to them it became almost a sport, seeing them as monsters and they started to truly hate them and being jealous of them, since they were stronger than them. The Half Breeds were forced to hide and to try to protect their cousins as best as they could since Angels made no exception toward those they executed in cold blood.

## Characteristics

Angels are described as one of the brightest creatures in the world, since they are imbued with both attributes of Good and Light, making them very hard to look directly, since their true form can kill a Human or at least blind him permanenltly.

Angels are humanoid beings, however they also posses huge feathered wings that can either be white or dark, depending on their status as either Angels of Heaven or Fallen Angels.

Even if Angels still follow Anu's will to protect and help humanity, most of them have a low opinion of them and they always watch them from top to bottom, acting toward them as useless creatures. In fact many Angels are fearful of humanity and they want all of them exincted like half breeds, since they clearly noticed how much Humanity is easily corrupted by Demons and they commit sinnful actions.

## Kinds of Angels

### Heaven Angel

Heaven Angels are the classic Angels that live in Heaven and originally served God, however after Lucifer's Rebellion God and Goddess left Heaven and so Angels are now guided by the Archangels and Michael, who has become the new Ruler of Heaven. Heaven Angels are now guardians of Heaven and they are also famous for dedicating their lifes to end Half Breeds.

Angels are described as being really beatiful and some of them difficult to look for a mortal eye, that cannot completely take the body of a Celestial Being. All Angels have at least a pair of wings that they can use to travel between realms, allowing them to go into places like the realms of the Pantheons Pagans or even in dark places like Hell or the Void.

### Fallen Angels

Fallen Angels are among the **Angels** that chose to follow Lucifer during his rebellion and for this they were cast out of Heaven: some of them lost all their powers and became the infamous Princes of Hell, however those that still belived what they were doing was right, they kept their powers. Even if they may lost a bit their buty and purity, these angels are still very powerful and capable to fight on equal ground against their siblings in Heaven.

## Ranks of Angels

1/7Archangels, also known as the Primordial Angels, are the most powerful warriors that Anu ever create and each one of them is known to have unique powers that make them even more powerful and dangerous: some Archangels are also the incarnation of what other angels can be. For example Lucifer was the leader of the Seraphim and as such he could be seen as a Primordial Seraph, while Gabriel is the leader of the Cherubin. Archangels  currently rule Heaven or they are banished into Hell for their crimes.

Archangels are described as Heaven's most powerful warriors and they are feared by many creatures, since they showed that they are capable to defeat many powerful foes that many cannot even dream to defeat.

### First Sphere

#### Seraphim

Seraphim, also known as the Burning Ones, are the second second most powerful kind of angels created and their duty is to bring peace and prosperity all over the world. Yet, they are also incredibly powerful in battlefields and they can give the positive emotions, such as courage, to continue to fight. Seraphim are also the brightest of Anu's angels and their former leader, Lucifer, was known to be the brightest of all Anu's Angels.

Seraphim are the brightest of all Angels and Lucifer stated that their true visage is powerful enough to wipe out common Dark and Evil attributes beings with little effort. Seraphim posses six huge wings and they are also the most beautiful Angels to be ever existed.

#### Cherubim

Cherubim are the second oldest Angels Anu crated and they are known to be the the most skilled archers among Angels: they always keep with them a bow and arrows that they use against their foes, to kill as soon as they see any Demon or Darklings. Cherubim are also very dangerous because as the Angels of Love, they can easily guess the emotional state of their opponents and see through them, making them very dangerous.

Cherubim have four wings and off all Angels, they are the most beautiful that Anu ever created, making even harder to look at them without being stunned by their buty. The only Angel that is superior to them in beauty is Gabriel, the Seraph of Love and their commander.

#### Ophanim

Ophanim are the weakest Higher Angels, however they are respected among their siblings, since they are the keepers of Angels' knowledge and they are living symbols of Anu's justice and authority. Ophanim have only a pair of wings, unlike their fellow siblings, however they also have two more eyes than their siblings in their true visage, granting them a better vision.

Ophanim are also the keepers of Celestial Council and they always make sure that everyone goes to his rightful sit, without taking that of someone else.

### Second Sphere

#### Authorities

Michael's soldiers and one of the greatest class of warriors after the Seraphim, Authorities are described as the most loyal soldiers to Heaven's cause and always willing to do anything to keep the Earth and Humanity protected from Evil and the Half Breeds.

Authorities are known to be absolutely loyal to Heaven and they will do anything to protect it: they even renounced their allegiance with Michael after the latter was exposed as corrupted and momentary twisted by Diablo's powers, showing that they had never forgot that their loyalty is first to Heaven.

#### Watchers/ Grigori

The Watchers are usually refearred to a group of Angels that Anu created to aid Lucifer into fighting: Lucifer trained all of them personally and they became very loyal to Lucifer, especially Samyaza and Azazel, always be willing to help their older brother.

Two hundreds of the Watchers sided with Lucifer and they were renamed as the Grigori; when Lucifer failed, they were cast out of Heaven and they became the first Fallen Angels. They then sired many Nephilims with humans, giving birth to the first half breeds.

#### Virtues

Virtues are part of the second sphere and watch over the movement of the heavenly bodies so that order is maintained. They are also part of the ministries through which signs and miracles are made in the world. Virtues are also known to be the most skilled Angels into controlling the Elements, since they were trained by the Elemental Emperors themselves, hoping they could help them in their war against the Shedim.

### Third Sphere

#### Dominion

Dominios are the first of lower angels and their duty is to watch over the activities of Lower Angels, guiding them into their missions. Dominions also watch over Heaven to make sure that everything is fine.

#### Ishim

Ishims are Heaven's messagers and they are sent on Earth to bring messages to Earth from the Heaven, so that mortals may know Anu's will. However at these days Ishims are rarely sent on Earth and they act more like spies of Heaven rather than messagers.

#### Malakim

Malakims are the weakest Angels and they are described as being the classic angelic soldiers, acting as soldiers of Heaven's armies, fighting in the war against the Outer Gods and the Archdemons. The Malakim can however prove a challenge if they have the number on their part, unless they are fighting too powerful opponents.
