> Stupidity is truly Father's worst creation. At least wars can end, diseases can be cured, and evil can be vanquished. But stupidity? That thing is about as ever-lasting as His glory. The worst of all is that many of the angelic hosts have already been taken advantage of such corruption...

**Uriel** is the True Archangel of Wisdom and Retribution that shines the light of God’s truth into the darkness of confusion.

## Overview

Uriel is listed as one of the four main archangels, the other three being Joshua, Gabriel, and Raphael along with one of the Seven Archangels as well.

People sometimes ask for Uriel’s help to seek God’s will before making decisions, come up with fresh creative ideas, learn new information, solve problems, resolve conflicts, let go of destructive emotions such as anxiety and anger that can prevent them from discerning wisdom, and recognize dangerous situations so they can try to avoid them.

She is said to carry the stars in the sky, and on the final day of judgement, she will oversee the resurrection and retribution of human souls. According to the Apocrypha, Uriel was the guardian to the gates of the Garden of Eden. She is associated with the month of September.

## Appearance

Similar to that of other angels, Uriel is seen to change her appearance at will. Uriel's humanoid form is a beautiful young woman with either with long, wavy blonde hair with a split bangs at the crown of her head, and purple or blue eyes. She has a mature figure, with a slender body that has no forms of fat on it and a moderate bust. She has twelve golden wings and a halo on her head.

While in Heaven, she wears a royal outfit that covers her entire body, except her head. Uriel also possesses the ability to change the size of her hair at will, such as making her hair became longer and wilder. However, Uriel is also sometimes seen with her hair grown out and braids most of it into a ponytail.

In her human form, Uriel appears as a beautiful young woman with purple-pinkish eyes and long red hair that flows just above her lower back. Her side bangs partially cross her cheeks and go down all the way to her neck. For attire, whenever she is in a battlefield, Uriel is often seen wearing her signature blue light armor, with her red and violet skirts over the belly line. In her armor, she is also equipped with her mini cape. Her casual attire in this form, consists of a navy-blue blazer that has white borders on its pockets and lapels, and a white-collared shirt that is generally worn underneath and a plaid short skirt and with beige stockings and high-heels.

In her angel form, Uriel has blue skin and several golden eyes all over her body, with two huge wings behind her, with her estimated size at 150 meters tall. Around her whirl colorful streams of letters from every alphabet and syllabary and abjad of every culture in history, making subtle and complex geometric patterns before they disappear in bursts of rainbow light.

## Personality

Despite being the youngest of the archangels, Uriel is regarded as one of the most mature next to Joshua. She is the more reasonable of the angels aside from Gabriel and is said to be a bit of a perfectionist. She shows a surprising amount of humanly personality traits, though while often really calm and contended, she will have her moments of sass and annoyance given that she also has quite the responsibility by guarding Eden. As the Archangel of wisdom, she oversees most of Heaven's affairs herself, and is always well informed about the going-ons in Heaven.

Uriel, unlike most of her brethren, deeply cares for her fallen brother Lucifer. While the other angels, including Joshua, have seen that Lucifer is beyond saving, Uriel still believes that there is still a glimmer of good within him and that he is simply consumed by rage and hatred, and that he must be shown the love and acceptance he once adored and cherished by his family. Uriel would even go so far as to provide nourishment for the fallen angel during his imprisonment. Lucifer himself displayed numerous times, greater affection towards Uriel than others.

Uriel states herself as "usually quite pure/well-behaved" but also "scheming", and Gabriel states her ways as "not quite ruthless". She also consistently refers to herself as "black-hearted" and is referred to as such by other high-ranking angels from Heaven's factions.

She was described by Cassiel as what humans might call "a specialist". According to Zariel, Uriel is the "funniest" in garrison of true archangels, something that John Constantine himself bemused, noting that he believed Uriel had a better sense of humor than many of her companions. According to Lucifer, Uriel is a stubborn angel. When she sets his mind, she doesn't waver. Growing up, Uriel looked up to her elder siblings. She kept trying to play with them no matter how many times they excluded her.

## Powers and Abilities

As a True Archangel, Uriel possessed the common powers and abilities inherited in all angels though to a greater degree. She overpowered many rebel angels in the War in Heaven.

### Powers

* **Immense Strength**: She is one of the most powerful beings in the universe, being one of the Four Great Archangels, which means that she is one of the four greatest angels in existence, possibly excluding Metatron or Satanael, the latter being the son of the Aeon of Wisdom and responsible for protection of humanity. She can channel the entirety of the divine light of God (Ohr Ein Sof) to strengthen herself far beyond her usual power, as well as being capable of using it to maintain the fabric of the universe, which consists of a crystal sphere with a radius of 13 billion light-year "surrounding" the Earth, from falling apart into dust, sustaining spacetime and the laws of physics and mathematics, alongside several other basic concepts of the physical world.
* **Unlimited intelligence**: Uriel is known to be the most intelligent of the archangels, although Gabriel usually earns this position for his pranks, it is Uriel who is in charge of the paperwork of Heaven and the four archangels, being considered the Archangel of knowledge and wisdom. She fully understands the Celestial Kabbalah, something that even a prophet of God like Moses was unable to learn to its fullest extent during a human lifetime, and she constantly micromanages all aspects of the material world without striving, having done this for what he is. describes as "ages of subjective time." Can perfectly comprehend higher-dimensional objects and shapes, and developed mathematics, physics, and programming logic from scratch by himself, eventually gaining a deep understanding of the machinery behind the structure of the universe and having beheld its blueprint in its entirety, enough for him to be capable of hacking into the superstructure and rewriting the fundamental nature of reality, retroactively transforming the world into a self-sustaining reality ran by mathematical laws, independent from the light of God.
* **Applied Kabbalah**: A form of semantic manipulation which functions by understanding that all things in Assiah, the physical world, are merely metaphors for fundamental archetypes residing in Yetzirah, the world of dreams and concepts, whose meaning defines the entirety of their behavior and inner workings, with this relationship extending even to abstract concepts and strata such as time and space. Uriel is then capable of accessing Yetzirah and directly manipulating the archetypal forms defining everything in his surroundings, which often manifest as long strings of letters forming words which he can rearrange and weaponize to distort reality at will, tapping into the semantic and lexical energies contained in all things.
	+ **Kefitzat Haderech**: A magic technique whose name translates to "shortening the path" in Hebrew. It can be learned when an individual recognizes that they are merely emanations of divine light existing through all of the four worlds of creation, with their position in the lower worlds being just a metaphor for a state partaken by their higher selves residing in the upper worlds; thus, by realizing that being somewhere else is an equally good metaphor for the higher state as being in the original location, they can emanate somewhere else in the physical world at will, which manifests as their body disintegrating into a lightning bolt and reappearing in a desired location.
	+ **Celestial Kabbalah**: The next step past Applied Kabbalah, which involves the manipulation of an even more fundamental sphere of reality than Yetzirah. As opposed to controlling defined concepts, ideas and archetypes, the Celestial Kabbalah is focused on controlling the underlying laws and rules through which these things are formed to begin with, and which dictates how the divine light of God is organized into structured patterns, with the very world corresponding to this magic, Briah, being nothing but a realm filled with formless wellsprings of energy brimming with creative potential that could potentially lead to the creation of archetypes. As such, Uriel has completed and utter control over every aspect of reality in the material universe, from the laws of physics and mathematics to the basic structure of spacetime, and he likewise micromanages every event and process within it as if editing large strings of code, manifested in the world as glowing letters and symbol belonging to all languages and alphabets in the world.
* **Theoretical Kabbalah**: The highest level of Kabbalah, which involves the direct manipulating of Adam Kadmon, the fundamental blueprint of creation that holds all of existence together and acts as its fundamental spatial and mystical organization, which is instantiated in the form of the physical world through the Tree of Life, whose purpose is to interpret and arrange its contents in a comprehensible form through a series of successive emanations represented by the four worlds of creation. This level of Kabbalah is described as untouchable, with any significant alterations to it being capable of destroying the world, and even minor alterations being extremely difficult to accomplish.
