### **Abilities**

**Chaos:** Elias has the ability to bring about death through chaos. When instituting a mortals death, he can create a cloud of chaotic energy to distract those surrounding him so none can be certain what happened.

**Cloak and Dagger:** Elias is a particularly stealthy death-bringer when he wants to be. He can slip in as silent as a cloud, end a mortal’s life and escape

**Same as everyone:** Elias just has… one of those faces. He tends to blend into the crowd. He doesn’t particularly stand out, even when everyone can see him.

**See Me Not:** Like all Deathworkers, Elias may choose who he reveals himself to. This includes hiding himself from his victims until the last moment.

## Personality

Elias often has a dark countenance about him. He is moody and short with an ill temper. However, he does enjoy mischief and jokes when it suits him and can see the humor in pranks.

## Past

Amriel was never quite… happy… in heaven. From his days in the nursery through his training, he was disinterested. For a long time, he longed to be a Seraphim to work with Sir Michael. When the practitioner informed him he would be going into training as a Keeper, he was deeply disappointed. This was only the first step in his dissatisfaction however. Amriel was fascinated by Earth. He found humans to be amazing, interesting creatures and would often venture to Earth against command and shirk his responsibilities to watch them.

Eventually, however, looking seemed to be enough to satisfy his curiosity and he breached contact in secret. Before long, he met a human man named Elias. He and Amriel became fast friends, and Amriel told Elias everything. For a long time, they kept it secret, growing closer and slowly becoming lovers.

It was when Elias was nearly killed in a mysterious hit and run that Amriel eventually began to suspect that his family knew that he had told Elias everything. Amriel believed them to consider Elias a threat and feared they may have plans to kill him.

**Fearing for his lover’s life, Amriel misused his position as a Keeper to search through The Archive and find out what it was that Heaven knew about him and Elias. What he found only confirmed his fears. The Host had convened the Archangels to gage the threat the Elias posed and the Arches had confirmed that Elias was a threat.**

Wrought with fear for his love and impassioned to save his mortal life, Elias turned his back on the flock, setting fire to the archive, starting with all information on Elias. This was to ensure that even if they knew his crime, they wouldn’t be able to seek him out. This is because all files on mortals begin at birth due to the natural outcry of the human body at this time. After that, it is much harder to locate and record a human whose file has been lost or destroyed.

Amriel was caught for this of course, and punished with the loss of his wing that he may never again fly to meet his lover, and this cast out to wander, searching eternally for Elias.

When Amriel was on Earth, he searched and continued searching until all hope that Elias may still be alive had extinguished and he was left to make peace knowing he’d never again see his lost love. It was after this that Amriel encountered his first Deathworker, a reaper named Amaya. From her he learned that he wasn’t alone and she brought him back with her to hell. There, he found others like him and even mortals. Sadly, he did not find them among him.

In a common tradition of fallen in Hell, however, he gave up his angelic name in favor of something more worldly. He chose Elias in remembrance of his lover and began his new life in hell. The rest, they say, is history.
