Angel
Sometimes referred to as the Warriors of Heaven, angels are divine beings in the service of the gods of good. They
only rarely appear upon the world, and only in times of the greatest need. Some priests and other spiritual men and women
can occasionally summon an angel to their bidding, but this happens very rarely and is only accomplished by the most devout
students of the faith.
Angels appear as pale or
golden skinned humans. They are very beautiful beings and radiate an aura of holy light. A set of feathery wings, usually
white or golden, grow from their backs, allowing them to glide with race through the skies. When they enter battle, they wield
swords imbued with holy power.
