| Description | Mu'aqqibat appear to be winged angels clothed in dun cloth. Their feet never touch the ground. |
| Procreation | As permitted by their leaders, only with each other. |
| Esoterica | All angels gain power from the Divine they serve. They are made of heavenly light, and therefore, all of their powers are filtered through that energy. Mu'aqqibat are imbued with loyalty resonance, hegnh, and the Divine might of Diligence. Other powers vary and are limited in their uses, but unholy powers are impossible. |
| Special Powers | Each kind of angel has special powers based on their function in service to their Divine. All angels have a holy aura. For mu'aqqibat, that aura is one of caution and warning against danger. All angels also communicate directly to the souls of the faithful or those who have not been wholly corrupted. |
| Scribe | Scribe mu'aqqibat have powers that aide them in the administration of their domains. They have a pen made from one of their feathers, called a stylus. A mu'aqqib's stylus has the power to inscribe word to instruct in any form of work. They have an oculus power that allows them to see the value of anything or anyone. They also have an aspectu, which is their power to see and understand complex tasks with a glance. All scribes understand any non-evil language and have the power to understand their Divine's judgment of a mortal and inscribe it upon the scrolls of Heaven. |
| Herald | Herald mu'aqqibat's powers aide them in spreading the Word of Diligence. They bear a trumpet called a lituus, which instills pride in those with a strong work ethic or drive to work and a work ethic in the lazy or parasitic. Their cross, or crucis, fills the area with a compulsion to act and work. And their scrolls bear the Word, which inspires loyalty and class consciousness in those who hear or read it. Herald mu'aqqibat have a capio, or required task, which requires them to spread class consciousness. As they do this, they become stronger. Their oculus allows them to see the value of anyone or anything, and their infundere allows them to infuse work ethic into the those they can see. Heralds can appear anywhere, though if they appear in unholy areas, it can hurt them. They speak all non-evil tongues. No one who hears their words, or voce, will ever forget them. |
| Warrior | Warrior mu'aqqibat have powers that aide them in fighting evil. They bear a sword called a gladius and a shield called a scutum (though their appearances to not necessarily match those terms). Their gladius burns with communal hegnhic flame that strengthens as others support the wielder, and their scutum will allow none who seek to exploit the workers to pass. Their oculus allows them to see the value of anyone or anything. They have a presence called a coram, which softly urges loyalty. Warriors gain power through service. For every 1,000 beings of pure evil they destroy, they gain a new power, capping at twelve:
The more evil a foe is, the more attacks a warrior has per round, capping at twelve. |
| Guardian | Guardian mu'aqqibat protect innocents and followers of Diligence Those they protect cannot see them without esoteric intervention. If their ward's soul is in incredible danger, they can intervene at the cost of their existence. Guardian mu'aqqibat have a power called teneo, which allows them to absorb difficulties to protect their ward. Their oculus allows them to see the relationship a person has with capital, and their augere power allows them to increase the work ethic in their ward, if need be. Once in the life of their ward, they may physically intervene to protect them, surrounding them with a holy barrier that repels parasites. |
| Lord | Lord mu'aqqibat are the most powerful of all angels. Their very presence exudes power. This is called coram. For lord mu'aqqibat, their presence is one of commanding loyalty, allowing them repel those who intend harm or betrayal. Every lord angel gains power both from serving their Divine and from being served by lesser angels. The gain a new power every Age they exist in service, capping at twelve:

They do all of the minor tasks that make the realm of Diligence and Loyalty work. Herald mu'aqqibat spread class consciousness in the world. They leave the Sanctum and spread the Word, seeking out those mortals who will do great works in the world and empowering them. They also carry messages for Diligence between Him and other Divines.
