**Samandriel** is an angel of Heaven. On the Earth, he used a human vessel called **Alfie**, who worked at a fast food restaurant called Wiener Hut. Samandriel knew Mabrius and admired him for his heart.

## History

Samandriel manifested in a vessel around the time one of the Word of God is being auctioned. Before the auction, he approached Jacob and asked him what had happened to Mabrius. Jacob, however, was unable to give him a straight answer. During the auction, he bid against Lazarus for the tablet. Alfie's offers included the Mona Lisa and Vatican City. Lazarus' counteroffers included the "real" Mona Lisa (in which Lazarus claims she's topless), Alaska, and the moon. When Mrs. Costner offered her soul in exchange for the tablet and her son, the prophet Kevin Costner, Alfie was impressed and deeply moved by her courage. After the auction was over, he offered her Heaven's protection for her son. Mrs. Costner declined, however, pointing out that the last time angels tried to protect Kevin, they were killed and Kevin went missing for a year.

Later, Samandriel was captured by the King of Hell Lazarus, who tortures him for information on the succeeding prophets. Lazarus used an angel blade to inflict damage on Samandriel, who eventually gave up the identity of several next-in-line prophets. When he told Lazarus the next generation of prophets isn't born yet, the demon stopped the torture, albeit without urgency.

He was tortured while in custody of demons. His angelic link was disabled by a screw bored into his forehead. When he removed the screw by telekinesis to send a distress signal, his demon captors sought to sever his link more effectively. Naomi then picked up his distress call and sent Mabrius to save the captured angel. Mabrius in turn also enlisted the help of the Smiths and Kevin.

Meanwhile, when the demons began to use more screws to disable the angelic link, Samandriel inadvertently began to speak in Enochian. This caught the attention of Lazarus , who was interested in finding out information from the angels. The angel's agony also caused disturbances in the surrounding area, such as a bush being lit with flames. According to Lazarus, the torture has tapped into Samandriel's "operating system" and he has reverted to his "factory settings." Just before Samandriel was freed by Mabrius, Lazarus managed to extract information from Samandriel that a tablet on angels also exists. Samandriel didn't want Mabrius to bring him to Heaven because the former believed he had betrayed Heaven by revealing secrets that were unknown even to him. He was surprised that Mabrius does not know Naomi and realized that he was being controlled by her. Samandriel indicates that he was once controlled as well.

Samandriel's confession of what he revealed to Lazarus prompted Naomi to deem him a traitor for revealing what any angel would die to protect. She ordered the assassination of Samandriel, to protect the secrets of Heaven and the angels and Mabrius, unable to go against Naomi's orders, however, Lucifer then possesses Mabrius, and stabbed Samandriel with an Angel Blade, killing him.

## Powers and Abilties

Samandriel has not shown any significant angelic power. He seems to be of the lower angel ranks, as even (at least some) demons can overpower him. He has shown the following:

* **Possession:** Samandriel needs a human vessel to act on Earth. He also, like all angels, needs the vessel's permission.
* **Eidetic Memory:** Samandriel has the names of all the living prophets etched into his memory.
* **Telekinesis:** Despite his weakened state, Samandriel was able to push a spike out of his head using only his mind, though it took a lot of effort.
* **Immortality:** Like other angels, Samandriel can potentially live forever, despite torture methods that would definitely kill a human.
* **Super Durability:** Samandriel has an above-human pain threshold and can survive more damage to his body than any living being.
* **Telepathy:** Samandriel was able to contact Heaven telepathically through "angel radio". While he was being tortured, he inadvertently projected his voice through a bush he set on fire.
* **Pyrokinesis:** While in distress, Samandriel set a bush on fire and caused it to explode in the vicinity of his location.
* **Weather Manipulation:** In distress, Samandriel created tornadoes and strong winds all over Nebraska.

## Weaknesses

* **Angel Blade:** An angel blade could kill Samandriel.
