Category:Angels

The angels were the most powerful of the races of Vasileio, before their extinction, and also the least numerous. Their physique resembled a human, except generally taller and possessing wings. They were ageless, and exceptionally powerful. They were at least as old as the elves if not older. They were the first to tinker with magic, and seeing angels demonstrate their power is what inspired Skyla to begin training mages. They often choose to simply observe the other races, which lead to some resentment, especially among the humans of the houses opposing to Skyla, who felt it was the angel’s duty to protect them. The angel replied that their own war was of much greater concern. A gate to the realm of demons had opened, and many demons would be rampaging across all the continents if not for the work of the angels. They created many artefacts to assist in this war, most of which have been lost to time. Unfortunately, although victorious against the demons, the already small population of the angels had dwindled greatly by this point. But the humans had continued conquering in their absence, and the dwarves were almost entirely wiped out. They ordered the royal family to stop, and their refusal led to the angels being forced into a war against the humans. The humans outnumbered the angels by thousands to one, and on a single day following an attack on the royal family’s palace, the last remaining hundred angels were killed in a single, incredibly bloody battle.

History
Virena and Sathia are easily the oldest and most powerful of the archangels, and therefore of all creation. Virena desired to create things while Sathia did not, and in fact tried to destroy Virena's work whenever she could. Virena however grew tired of Sathia breaking her toys and broke off a tiny bit of her power, creating Anderoth, the archangel of life and nature, in an attempt to use Anderoth to create things as well while Virena kept Sathia distracted with her own creations. Sathia quickly discovered the ruse and broke off a bit of her own power... Creating Ithiel, the archangel of death and the afterlife, to stop Anderoth from creating things. However Ithiel was not as invested in stopping the birth of creation as Sathia and in fact just stood off to the side and refused to help. Virena eventually had enough and, with the help of Anderoth, created the first archangel not born off Virena or Sathias power, Leniel, the archangel of sorcery and wisdom. Leniel helped Virena and Anderoth create the first spell, a binding spell. They cast it on Sathia and bound her to Virena's first creation free of Sathia's terror, a helmet, and Virena then surrounded the helmet with as much creation as she could muster, creating the universe to cover up Sathia.
