Archangels lead the choirs of heaven in their eternal, exultant jubilation. Yet they also lead heaven’s armies and command the righteous troops when the angelic host march to war. As the leaders of the celestial realm, the Archangels bear the greatest of responsibilities and the heaviest of burdens. For that reason, when an Archangel deigns to descend to the mortal realm, it will only be for the most crucial and pivotal of reasons. Woe betides anyone who then stands in the Archangel’s way.
Archangels, by their very nature, are neither aggressive nor provoking creatures. They don’t come to our realm to fund glory, settle grudges or pick fights. They come only to do their duty, fulfil their mission, and complete their goals. Sometimes these quests are missions of mercy to save to faithful flock, and are times fondly remembered. Other times, Archangels are sent to enact divine justice and retribution. This is when they come bearing arms and armour to do battle. Archangels cannot truly be killed as their souls would merely return to heaven, but many a proud warrior still seeks to become a divine slayer.

Perk: Exuviation: Spend a Sigil. On a successful Mental/Will Skill Check, you and each ally within Near Range gain a number of Heal Points equal to the first digit of the roll’s result.
