Angels

Angels are supernatural beings with the body of a human and great feathered wings. They are extraordinary beautiful with delicate features, and their body naturally radiates a faint glow that can turn into a dazzling light. They are universally portrayed as being kindhearted, loyal, friendly, powerful, endowed with great wisdom, and having a legendary protective healing magic.

In reality these traits and abilities vary a lot from one species to another, as does their size. They are actually many kinds of angels, including solaros, archangels and cherubs... and some of them are not nearly as gentle as people think.

Angels radiate an aura that reflects their mood. For example, a sad angel in a city would make the entire neighborhood surrounding her sad as well.

Angels are natural enemies and rivals of succubi, although there hasn't been any major fighting between the two since the cease-fire that ended the Tenebris War between Heaven and Hell, a war that took place ages ago and nearly lead to the ruin of both sides.

Angels in Felarya

Angels are very rare in Felarya. Several of them live among the humans in several cities, serving as renowned healers, but most angels who come to Felarya are giant-sized. The giant angels that come here have questionable motives: an angel rarely leaves heaven without a good reason and once in Felarya, there is not much for an 80 foot tall creature to eat other than living creatures.

Some angels have tasted humans (usually damned souls en route to the hell gates) and sometimes, they discover they enjoy it. Such angels will try at first to discretely eat only other damned souls, and a few manage to stop at that, but the majority find they want to eat more... and Felarya is the perfect place to fulfill their needs.

So an adventurer suddenly coming across the rare and splendid sight of an angel in the Felaryan jungle may be in for an unpleasant surprise: rather than being safe while around the angel, he's on the menu! The major difference between an angel and other predators is that an angel will always apologize before swallowing their prey. This is the ONLY major difference, and their apologies make little difference in the end as their stomach is just as bad a place to end up as a succubus's.

That angels sometimes swallow people is little known, as the angels try to remain as discrete as possible, sometimes using magic like invisibility or directly teleporting their prey in to their stomach to help conceal their actions, all the while keeping a straight, albeit blushing, face.

Who could ever suspect such pure, innocent creatures anyway?

Purifier Angels

Under constrution

Purifier angels are a rare and giant species of angels. They measure 80 feet in average. They travel a lot from worlds to worlds and never stay very long in the same place. They are seen as a real enigma by many, including others angels.

For some reasons, they generate an incredible amount of light or "positive" energy, which allow them to easily overwhelm "negative" creatures like Demons and darkness-based beings. Thus they are seen by these creatures as incredibly dangerous. They are fairly powerless ( besides their size ) against creatures that have no affinity for darkness, though.

They use a weapon of sort that is imbued with their excessive positive energy. The weapon use the darkness inside their victim to shrink them in order for the angel to swallow them. ( or directly if the creature is amll enough )

The speed of the process can be slow or fast depending on the darkness of their victim. Once swallowed, the prey is their stomach the prey

Note that darkness and evil are two different things

These angels have a very strange psyche. They are convinced to act rightly with a mix of determination and utter naiveness and innocence. It's almost impossible to convince a Purifier angel to not "purify" you ( ie : swallow you whole and alive ) once she had decided to do so.

However darkness don't "necessarily" means "evil" and more than once,

The purify angels are very voracious and when they feel darkness inside a creature they have an almost irresistible urge to cleanse it. Succubi are very nervous in the presence of one of these angels.

They don't have the slightiest sense of modesty and go around all naked, appearing mostly during the night or can be found mostly in darkness place like tenebra maze.

Due to their intrinsic nature, it is virtually impossible for a Purifier Angel to "Fall". Under typical circumstances, it just can not happen. However, there have been at known cases of Purifier Angels undergoing inversion, exactly how the process occurred is unknown, but all are rumored to have attempted to seek out and cleanse Déméchrelle or a powerfull darkness-based being.

Whether or not these Cleanser Angels actually managed to find the Queen of Darkness is not known, but it is clear that something happened.

Defiler Angels

Inverted Purifier Angels are called Defiler Angels, and they are eerie beings; as Cleanser Angels exist to consume darkness and transform it into light, so do Defiler Angels live to consume light and transform it into darkness.

Defilers seem to radiate darkness from the very core of their being, and absorb all light within their presence. They have pretty much the same powers that they possessed as Cleanser Angels, only they work in an opposite fashion. Defilers are apparently just as unconcerned with matters of good and evil as they were when they were Cleanser Angels... their sole interest is consuming and "recycling" entities strongly aligned with the Light into darkness-based creatures.

Rumored sightings of a Defiler Angel automatically set the Celestial Orders of Heaven on high alert, as they are considered an extreme threat to other angels; the Heavenly Host takes them so seriously that they never send anything else than entire squads of elite warriors to investigate locations where Defiler Angels were said to be seen. Just as with their light counterparts, a single Defiler Angel is a tough fight for even the strongest Archangels, but is fairly powerless against creatures that have no affinity for the primal force of light.

Strangely, it appears that Cleanser Angels and Defiler Angels have no effect at all upon one another; or perhaps more accurately, their natures repel one another like similiar magnetic poles. Despite being one of the most darkness-aligned creatures in existence, a Defiler Angel can not be consumed or transformed by a Cleanser Angel, and the reverse is also true. Exactly why this is so is unknown, but there are many theories currently in development regarding the matter.
