Angels

ANGELS

Angels are just messengers of God
in the Hebrew Bible (translating îìàê), the New Testament and the Quran. The term "angel" has also been expanded to various notions of "spiritual beings" found in many other religious traditions. Other roles of angels include protecting and guiding human beings, and carrying out God's tasks. Some are even warriors because of the Apocalypse.

Personal Guardians
Throughout the Bible we find it repeatedly implied that each individual soul has its tutelary angel. Thus Abraham, when sending his steward to seek a wife for Isaac, says: "He will send His angel before thee" (Genesis 24:7). The words of the ninetieth Psalm which the devil quoted to our Lord (Matthew 4:6) are well known, and Judith accounts for her heroic deed by saying: "As the Lord liveth, His angel hath been my keeper" (13:20). These passages and many like them (Genesis 16:6-32; Hosea 12:4; 1 Kings 19:5; Acts 12:7; Psalm 33:8), though they will not of themselves demonstrate the doctrine that every individual has his appointed guardian angel, receive their complement in our Saviour's words: "See that you despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you that their angels in Heaven always see the face of My Father Who is in Heaven" (Matthew 18:10), words which illustrate the remark of St. Augustine: "What lies hidden in the Old Testament, is made manifest in the New". Indeed, the book of Tobias seems intended to teach this truth more than any other, and St. Jerome in his commentary on the above words of our Lord says: "The dignity of a soul is so great, that each has a guardian angel from its birth." The general doctrine that the angels are our appointed guardians is considered to be a point of faith, but that each individual member of the human race has his own individual guardian angel is not of faith (de fide); the view has, however, such strong support from the Doctors of the Church that it would be rash to deny it (cf. St. Jerome, supra). Peter the Lombard (Sentences, lib. II, dist. xi) was inclined to think that one angel had charge of several individual human beings. St. Bernard's beautiful homilies (11-14) on the ninetieth Psalm breathe the spirit of the Church without however deciding the question. The Bible represents the angels not only as our guardians, but also as actually interceding for us. "The angel Raphael (Tobit 12:12) says: "I offered thy prayer to the Lord" (cf. Job 5:1 (Septuagint), and 33:23 (Vulgate); Apocalypse 8:4). The Catholic cult of the angels is thus thoroughly scriptural. Perhaps the earliest explicit declaration of it is to be found in St. Ambrose's words: "We should pray to the angels who are given to us as guardians" (De Viduis, ix); (cf. St. Augustine, Reply to Faustus XX.21). An undue cult of angels was reprobated by St. Paul (Colossians 2:18), and that such a tendency long remained in the same district is evidenced by Canon 35 of the Synod of Laodicea. [/b]

How To Kill An Angel
While an angel is in mortal form on earth, they can be affected by one thing: qeres. The Egyptians had a perfume called qeres that was used during mummification to provide the first 'sweet breathe' of the afterlife. Qeres is extremely rare substance because its recipe has been lost, but small amounts still exsist. this perfume is a lethal poison to an angel (fallen or otherwise), and if poured over, say, the blade of a knife, could in fact terminate an angel. While non-lethal to humans, it can burn or poison anyone who carries the Nephilitic gene. (see Genesis 6). If you are still thinking that all Nephilim died in the flood, think about Goliath, or King David's "men of great re-known". But yes, qeres can kill an angel. And no afterlife awaits them either. Extreme physical damage can just about kill them as well.[/b]

Weaknesses
Angels have certain effects that give away their true natures: These dead give aways are ONLY recognized by those who would know what an angel is (a True Empath, A STRONG Psychic that is VERY TRAINED in their gifts, Abyssnals, other angels, or Priests)
-Plant life flourishes as you pass
-Pleasant smell (cookies, caramel, honey, etc)
-Children are attracted to you
-Halos (that is if it ever shows up)
-Sound of music when pleased
-Surrounded by a blue electric light when angered
-Eyes that glow light blue
-Wings
-A golden glow of light that seems to just be there (that is if they let their guard down)
-ALL angels cause Empaths to get rejuvenate from their concentration of good energies. (Varies depending upon the age of the Empath)
-Dewinging (Wings being removed if they so choose so)
-Cursed Weapons
-Extreme physical damage(Explosions, dismemberment)
-Turning to the dark side (Pride)
-ALL Angels can be Summoned as per various rituals, but it must be for good purposes only, holy or protection.

Powers:

• -Teleportation- •
Angels have the ability to teleport anywhere in the world. Whenever they teleport, the sound of wing flapping can be heard. They also have the ability to teleport others with them. Angels can also teleport others to a location without actually having to go to the location themselves. Angels may have the ability to teleport anywhere throughout the universe.

• -Telekinesis- •
Angels have the ability to move objects with their mind. Their telekinesis is powerful enough to throw beings across a room, break a human's neck, or pin them to a wall. It seems angelic telekinesis can be refined to a point where angels can unscrew several screws of a pipe.

• Angelic Possession- •
Like demons, angels have the ability to possess human beings. But unlike demons, angels must have the permission of humans to possess them. Also, an angel does not pick any random human to possess, the human must have a special bloodline so that the angel's true potential can be reached. For example, for the Archangel Michael to reach his full potential, he must possess a human that is a descendant of Cain and Abel. It's been shown by Lucifer that when an angel possesses a random human, the angel is not as powerful as he or she could be and the angel's presence causes the human vessel to start to decay.

• -Super Strength- •
Angels enhance the physical strength of their human vessels to the point that they are able to punch another being through a brick wall. When a normal human is struck by an angel, the power of the first strike is usually enough to cause the human to bleed.

• -Killing Touch- •
Angels have the ability kill demons by placing their hand upon their forehead. This ability is limited with lower ranked angels. Extremely powerful demons are immune to this power when a lower ranked angel is unable to kill.

• -Induced Sedation- •
Angels have the ability to make humans go unconscious by placing two fingers upon their forehead.

• -Invulnerability- •
Angels enhance the endurance to physical pain and the immunity systems of their human vessels. Angels are unaffected by all diseases. Although angels can become drunk but it takes extremely large amount of alcohol, an amount that would kill a normal human being.

• -Voice Mimicry- •
Angels have the ability to sound like any human they choose.

• -Healing- •
Angels have the ability to heal any wound that a person possesses. When angels are disconnected from Heaven, this is one of first powers they lose.

• -Healing Factor- •
Angels enhance the regenerative abilities of their human vessels so that any damage that comes to their hosts' bodies is undone.

• -Resurrection- •
Angels have the ability to bring back to life anyone they choose, regardless if the person's soul is in Heaven or Hell. Though if the person's soul is in Hell, an angel must go into Hell and retrieve the soul. If the resurrected person had their body cremated, angels can recreate the body. When an angel resurrects a human, all the scars the body previously had will be gone but an imprint of the angel's hand will be on the body. It seems that this ability does have its limitations, it seems that for an angel to recreate the body of a person, the angel must know the whereabouts of every cell of the person.

• -Time Manipulation- •
Angels have the ability to go back and forward through time. They also have the ability to time travel with others. This ability seems to be less difficult for archangels. Also, an angel's ability of time manipulation extends to the angel stopping the aging process of his or her host. As soon as an angel possesses a human, the body of the human vessel completely stops aging so that when the angel leaves their human host, their body is in the same condition as it was when the angel possessed the human.

• -Reality Warping- •
Angels have the ability to create anything out of thin air. You’re able to create advanced stages of diseases within a person, or like Gabriel you can have the ability to create living beings and imaginary realities out of nothing.

• -Telepathy- •
Angels have the ability to communicate using their minds. This ability allows angels to enter the dreams of a person as well.

• -Memory Manipulation- •
Angels have the ability to take away and restore a human's memories. Angels can also implant fake memories into a human as well. Angels can take away all the memories of a human making him or her forget his or her entire life.

• -Immortality- •
Although angels can die, they are essentially immortal due to the fact that disease nor time can kill them.

• -Pyrokinesis- •
The ability to kill another angel by setting their ablaze from the inside.

• -Cryokinesis- •
The ability to freeze objects with his breath.

• -Electrokinesis- •
Surges of electricity can come out of their back.

• -Molecular Combustion- •
With a snap of their fingers, some angels are able to speed up molecules to the point where it causes things to explode.

• -Weather Manipulation- •
Disrupt the normal weather patterns of the area angels arrive if they so choose.

• -Holy White Light- •
This ability looks very similar to Lilith's demonic white energy blast, but is far more powerful. It can blast anyone and just about anything that comes in an angel’s way.

Fallen Angels:

Fallen Angels are much like regular angels, only they have some of the demons powers. They are neither good nor evil, so they are the in between or as they like to be called as, "The Outsiders." No angel or demon will ever help them. They are hated by both kinds and neither want a part in trying to help them or anything. Though, the demons and angels will try to kill them if they come along their path. They are the "unclean" claim the angels. The demons think that these creatures are too "pure" for their taste.

Their demon powers are:

Access to/from Hell - High ranking demons such as Azazel, Alastair, and Crowley can easily teleport themselves back and forth between Earth and Hell, without the need for any complex summoning ritual or assistance.

Dream Walking - Displayed only on the special children. They can enter and control the dreams and can turn them to a relatiy.

Thermokinesis - the ability to look at an object and make it extremely hot like hell fire.

Electromagnetic Interference - Demons, like spirits, often disrupt nearby electronics with their presence.
