Angels Species in The Snakeheart Series | World Anvil

Angels

Angels are powerful celestial beings of light created by the Creator and ordered into the hierarchy of Nine Angelic Choirs. Angels maintain Heaven and guard the souls of righteous Humans.

Basic Information

Biological Traits

As warriors of God, and Angel's true form is overwhelming to most. However, some Human Sensitives and Spellcasters can view their true form without suffering lasting effects. With regard to the Fallen, Lycan and Vampires cannot look up an Angel in their true form without risking destruction and death. Similarly, Demons who possess humans cannot look at Angels in their true form without damaging their human hosts.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

At full potential, Angels harness considerable power. As such, Angels are the most powerful entities of the supernatural realm, outclassing the Fallen and Demons (including Soul Hunters, but they are equally matched against Hellhounds.)
