History

Angels were a race of divine beings that were native to Heaven and served the creator God.

Over the centuries, the family dynamic ebbed and flowed throughout the centuries. After Father had disappeared, the doors to Heaven were closed and new rifts began to form with the Archangel siblings became divided amongst one another. Each had their own view on how to bring back their Father. It was this chain of events that led to Gabriel bringing forth the Extermination War that sought to eliminate all of mankind as he believed that they were responsible for Father departing. Michael held a different opinion and instead sought to protect humans by battling his fellow Angels and bringing forth the emergence of the Chosen One. Uriel and Raphael wanted no part in the war where they declared their neutrality. During the Extinction War, armies of Lower Angels began to take possession of unwilling human bodies as they began to kill humans where they invaded Earth on 1st November 2013. Over the next seventeen years, more than six billion lives were lost with many cities reduced to rubble.

In an effort to target Gabriel, Vega had a airplane deploy a bomb dropped on the Aerie situated in the Rocky Mountains.

Overview

In appearance, they resembled human beings with perfect physical features and able to manifest wings. Some of their kind such as the Lower Angels were incorporeal entities that could only interact in the physical plane by possessing human bodies. They were immortals both in spirit and corporeal form allowing them to exist eternally with even their physical bodies not growing old or dying from the passage of time. God afforded the Archangels with higher senses allowing them to know details from every breath or scent allowing them to discern a persons favorite flower of a person. Despite their nature, their physical forms were vulnerable to electric shocks to their muscles similar to humans allowing them to be temporarily rendered unconscious. Autopsies of higher ranked Angels revealed that they could be shattered through inflicting the greater amount of concussive force.

Among the hosts of Heaven, the Angels were divided into a hierarchy that included:

  • Lower Angels : known as the Dogs of Heaven or as Eight-Balls by humans on the account of their eye patterns in possessed mortal bodies.
  • Powers : the second sphere of angels created as warriors tasked with keeping the Lower Angels in line and granted corporeal bodies and answered to the Archangels.
  • Archangels : the highest ranked Angels with the family consisting of four namely Gabriel, Michael, Uriel and Raphael that embodied a different role in their structure.

Empyrean steel was equally capable of killing Angels.

One of the relics available to them was the Apocrypha that was an ancient book filled with angelic secrets which included the prayer to conduct an Eviction of a possessed body. It was written by the first and only prophet to had ever conducted an Eviction of an Angel. In time, the words within the text had worn away and it was no longer to be read with only the Chosen One having the power to transfer the markings onto it.
