*"You have to understand, Jessica. I don't hate my brother.

But if he is released, I am going to kill him, because it is the right thing to do and I have to."*
―Michael to Jessica
**Michael** is the True Archangel of Justice, Fate, Destiny, Humility and the Military, the eldest child of God, the commander of the Heavenly Host, the Prince of the Seraphim, and the twin brother of Lucifer. He is the most powerful angel Anu has ever created with the exception of Lucifer and a member of the Four Great Archangels and Seven Archangels.

## Early History

### Childhood

Michael was formed from the Crystal Arch a few seconds after Lucifer. Like his twin brother, he was already an adult when he formed. The two of them would spent much of their time training to become powerful and skilled. A century later, the rest of the True Archangels were created. Unlike Michael and Lucifer, their younger siblings were formed as young children.

Michael and Lucifer personally raised the other True Archangels. Michael was the typical older brother of the group. He was constantly making sure they do not get in trouble or separating quarrels between them. While he was usually the subject of teasing from his younger siblings, he had a very close relationship with them and was highly protective of them as well.

### The Heavenly Host

After many years, the rest of the angels were created. Michael helped train them in combat and soon became well-respected among them as the greatest warrior of Heaven. He also formed the Heavenly Host along with his fellow True Archangels.

### The Eternal Conflict

When the Archdemons invaded the universe and revealed their existence, Michael helped lead the Seraphim into battle. He personally went after the strongest Archdemons, Diablo and Bael. He managed to best Bael but was defeated by Diablo although he did put up a good fight.

Diablo nearly killed Michael but he was saved by Lucifer. The two of them worked together and managed to defeat Diablo, imprisoning him within the Black Soulstone.

### The Dark War

When the Outer Gods invaded the Earth, Michael personally fought against Nyarlathotep and defeated his opponent although he nearly died. He also assisted Lucifer in defeating Azathoth. When the Dark War was over, Michael noticed that Lucifer and Samael had changed: Lucifer became more aggressive and less gentle while Samael became more reckless.

### War in Heaven

Tensions escalated when Anu created humanity and tasked the True Archangels to watch over them and train them to their fullest potential. Michael obeyed despite not having a high opinion on humans, and was evidently angered at Samael for causing the Fall of Mankind; this led to the brothers becoming estranged.

Eventually, Lucifer declared that humanity was unworthy of the True Archangels' help and that they shouldn't exist. Michael was horrified by Lucifer's speech and tried to reason with him but was unable to thanks to Azathoth's corruption. He then asked the True Archangels to join him, reminding them of all he had done for them.

To Michael's dismay, Amenadiel and Samael decided to join Lucifer in his rebellion as the generals of his armies. Michael and the True Archangels loyal to Anu attempted to convince them to stop but they refused. Although Michael briefly considered joining Lucifer, he was too loyal to Anu and refused, siding with humanity instead.

Left with no other choice, Michael waged a war against Lucifer and his side. Although Lucifer had fewer angels on his side, his army was composed of brilliant strategists and he managed to turn the tides in his favor. Knowing they can't win with sheer power alone, Michael and Uriel devised a plan to defeat Lucifer. They led Lucifer, Amenadiel, and Samael to Heaven's vault, while the rest of their army distracted the rebel angels.

After a short but terrible battle, Michael destroyed Lucifer's physical body. He then casted those who rebelled into Hell for all eternity while Anu sealed Lucifer in the Frozen Throne.

### Anu's Departure

After the fall of Lucifer and the creation of Hell, Michael changed entirely. He no longer smiled or laughed and was deathly serious, a far outcry from his former personality where he used to smile and was outgoing in his own way. Michael became the strict and stern leader of the True Archangels and was trained by Anu to become the Viceroy of Heaven since the former planned to leave for a very long time and needed someone to look after Heaven for him. When he finally departed, Michael took over and formed a council with the other True Archangels.

### Great Flood

When the Nephilim appeared and started terrorizing humans, Michael asked the True Archangels for their opinions on how to deal with the situation. Several of them wanted to send a great flood but others were against it. In order to see if humanity was worth living, Michael sent Gabriel on a mission to guide humans down the right path. Unfortunately, Samael corrupted more than Gabriel could free, so she ordered the humans who resisted corruption to build arks and boats. When the righteous humans were safely on their arks, Michael send the flood and imprisoned Samyaza and most of the Watchers in Dudael, only to be confronted by Samael.

Michael fought Samael while Gabriel dealt with Lilith. He managed to defeat his younger brother and made the demonic couple infertile before binding them to Hell.

### Biblical Events

Michael acted as the advocate of Israel, and sometimes fought with the princes of the other nations. When Moses died, he retrieved his body and prevented the demonic hosts from stealing it. Along with Gabriel, he came to Daniel's aid in his contest with the prince of Persia.

Michael was also the defender of biblical patriarchs. He rescued Abraham from the furnace in which he was thrown into by Nimrod. He then told him that Lot had been captured. He also protected Sarah from being defiled by Abimelech.

Later, he substituted a ram in Isaac's place to prevent him from being sacrificed by his father. He saved a stillborn Jacob from being killed by demons. Michael also prevented Laban from harming Jacob and decimated the army of Sennacherib.

## Personality

Michael was once an extremely loyal, kind, and caring celestial being. He respected his cousins and treated the other True Archangels as his equals. He was particularly loyal to Anu and would do anything he commands. However, his loyalty does have its limits as he protested against Lucifer's imprisonment although he eventually agreed to it.

After Anu left, Michael became more hardened and mature. He turned into a firm, strong, and powerful but strict and cold leader, having set up a rigid and sturdy hierarchy in Heaven. Regardless, Michael continues to care deeply for his angelic siblings. He would make sure that they do not quarrel or get into trouble. As their older brother, he has a sense of authority over them as he told Anael that he expected her and Gabriel to be on their best behavior.

Michael dislikes being regarded with fear as he believed that Anu should be the one everyone fears. When faced with a possibility of betrayal, he quickly loses his composure and becomes angered and is noted to be utterly ruthless on the battlefield. According to Uriel, this was because of Lucifer’s betrayal, which emotionally scarred him. In front of others, he always put on the face of a confident, brave leader despite how tired and weary he was inside. He also has a firm sense of honor as he tested humanity before sending the Great Flood and allowed the Nephilim who didn't cause any destruction to survive.

Michael has a rather complicated relationship with humans. While he has no real hate towards them, he sees them as inferior to him and his kind and when faced with disrespect, will not hesitate to show cruelty. Unlike Gabriel and Sariel, he only lends his protection towards humanity if Anu orders him to or if one of his closest siblings asked him to. Despite his disregard for humanity, he never acts arrogant before them and always appears as a strong but humble servant of Anu.

But as time passed, Michael’s criticism of human flaws lessened and he was genuinely concerned for their wellbeing. He became very compassionate and caring towards the innocents who suffer greatly at the hands of the wicked. Despite his newfound sympathy for the innocents, he will still be merciless towards the sinful and will not hesitate to deliver his frightening judgment.

Michael is deep down, a strong-willed and loyal person. He will not back down even when faced with seemingly invincible enemies. When facing Lucifer, he refused to surrender despite his older brother's superior powers and later faced Bael without hesitation, continuing to fight him until he finally gained the upper hand.

Michael is known to have high standards for angels, expecting them to follow Anu's commands without question, especially the other True Archangels. This shows that he does not believe in free will for his kind, even if many of them have demonstrated it already.

## Physical Appearance

Michael is an exceptionally handsome young man. He has celestial blue eyes and wavy golden brown hair that reaches his shoulders. He is tall with an athletic and muscular build. He is usually seen wearing dark blue pants and a white hoodie covering a black shirt. When he transforms into his true form, his eyes become even bluer and six pure white wings appear.
