PersonalityMany would expect angels to be forgiving, radiant and warm creatures. Azaezel is nothing like that. The arch-angel is cold, calculated and thoroughly without mercy. He believes that all who have sinned must be punished by holy decree. Both humans and angels, and even the lesser races of man. He is arrogant in his belief and utterly unmoving on the subject. Even during the peace, he despised not only demons but also the humans. For it is in a Demon’s blood to sin, but humans got a choice. And often, in his eyes, they choose wrong. As arch-angel, he allows no backtalking from normal angels or any other race that allied themselves with the light. But he respects and honors all angels in the hierarchy above him. Without exception. His loyalty here is unwavering.
HistoryHe started out as an angel long ago, and a talented one at that, but chose to remain a librarian. Keeping track of the sacred tomes of the angels. His days were filled with infinite time, and he often found himself going through the tomes. Learning of holy magic which he trained himself in. His wife, Esendra often went out to aid the humans. Though after one mission, she did not return. The foolish humans saw her as a danger. Local authorities had taken her captive. The angels forbid Azaezel to intervene. So the poor angel had no choice but to watch from the heavens as humans ended up killing his beloved. Together with all his ability for mercy.
The next day he joined the heavenly forces. Thinking he recognized the wickedness within humans and the whole alliance. At first, he had a habit of questioning his commanders. Which earned him quite a few punishments. But then one of his officers sat down with him, telling him that he was an excellent soldier. His talent in Holy Magic, particular summoning, seemed to have given him a chance to enter the Ordo Magnus. But his habit was getting in the way of that. Azaezel told the officer about how the rulers of heaven stopped any interference to help his innocent wife. The officer listened attentively and then asked what he would have done. The humans had made a mistake, and if he had descended and slaughtered the square war would have been inevitable. Worse, the legions of heaven would not be ready.
Since then, revenge has been the fuel of Azaezel. He bid his time, knowing that the frail peace was ultimately doomed. He increased his knowledge, and eventually became head of the Ordus Evocator. As well as a Lord Arcana. Wielding the devastating powers of heaven now, he marches forth for vengeance, penance, and justice.
PowersHigh summoner of the heavens - Azaezel brings forth the seal of magic and breaks it. From it, the powerful beasts of heaven come forth. Not only is he able to bring these holy animals there, he can also command them. They will not disobey and vanish if either they are destroyed or their objective has been completed. Many angels among the Ordo Magnus are capable of summoning the animals. However, Azaezel has a particular gift to summon much greater and much more creatures than the average angelic mage.
Greater flames of cleansing - Only a few of the Ordo Magnus can actually use the cleansing fires. Even less can tame the greater spells that go with it. Never the less, Azaezel mastered the art. With the cold fury of the heavens, he burns away flesh and sin. The golden flames burn like oil-fires. They stick on surfaces and continue to burn long after the spell has been cast. Melting metal away like acid. When the fires are strong enough, you can hear the sound of oxygen getting sucked towards them.
Herald of the sun - The light of saints come at Azaezel’s command. Allowing him and his men to travel through the light. As well as to cast bolts of lights that pierce metal, rock and sinners. Heralds of the Sun are particularly gifted angels. Allowed to drink from the Sunwell. A sacred fountain within the heavens. Only a few can take consume the power and not burn on the spot. But when the essence has been absorbed, the angels radiate with pure light power.
Lord Arcana - There are many Lord Arcana. They are by far the most common spellcasters of the Angels. Still, their power should not be underestimated. They wield a multitude of spells, ranging from shields to beams of light. Azaezel’s offensive spells taught to him in as Lord Arcana pale with the power of the Greater flames of cleansing. But still, he uses the defensive capabilities. Meaning that his defenses are no greater than that of an ordinary Lord Arcana.
WeaponsDawnbreaker – A sacred staff forged long ago by a Grand Lord Arcana and first Herald of the Sun. Dawnbreaker amplifies light magic. It also allows to wielder to cast “Dawnbreaker”. Calling forth the sun to cleave through any clouds and strike the ground with its golden rays. Burning all sinners that get hit. It’s a particularly devastating spell but requires a lot of energy of the user.
EquipementTome of Arcana – the tome contains many arcane secrets, ready at its master’s fingertips. Each Lord Arcana holds his/her own version of the Tome of Arcana. Composed of spells and rituals chosen from the Grand Library. Tomes of Arcana can only be touched by angels. Upon the foul touch of humans or demons, it will light up in flames and burn until its ash.
Sunlight vial – essence taken from the Sunwell. The sunlight vial’s light can push back all but the strongest demons. It’s very light burns the skin of humans who are exposed for too long to it. When drunk by a Herald of the Sun, they burn like a star for several minutes. Often long enough to absolutely dominate the battlefield. However, each Herald only receives a single vial. So they must use it wisely.
Blue robes of the Holy Flames - Despite their look, the ornate blue robes are rather strong. Like magically enhanced leather. They won’t stop infernal blows from close range. But small arms fire has only limited effect on it. Even more important, it burns away the nearby hellish magic.
