Michael

**Michael** was the first of the archangels created by God, and thus one of the oldest entities in Creation. As such, Michael served as God's second-in-command during the war against the Darkness and the subsequent War in Heaven. It was Michael, following God's commands, who ultimately drove Lucifer from Heaven and, afterwards, bound Lucifer into his Cage in Hell through the creation of the 66 Seals.

When God left Heaven, Michael ruled in his stead, commanding the Heavenly Host and passing orders down through the chain of command.
