Description Urielim appear to be man-sized beings with the faces of a man, a lion, an ox, and an eagle. They have human hands, feet of a calf, and four wings. Two wings stretch upward, symbolizing the crown and throne. Two extend downward, symbolizing the chains and shackles. Urielim glow with an intense light. Their hooves never touch the ground. They fly on the south wind.
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. Urielim are imbued with the Law, hegnh , and the Divine might of Authority. 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 urielim that aura is one of absolute authority and law. All angels also communicate directly to the souls of the faithful or those who have not been wholly corrupted.
Scribe

Scribe urieilim 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 uriel's stylus has the power to inscribe Divine Law. They have an oculus power that allows them to see lines of political and state power. They also have an aspectu, which is their power to see and understand complex systems 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 urielim's powers aide them in spreading the Word of Authority. They bear a trumpet called a lituus, which brings strength to the just and binding to the unjust. Their cross, or crucis, gives them an aura of command. And their scrolls bear the Word, which instills Justice and Fairness in the hearts and minds of those who hear or read it.

Herald urielim have a capio, or required task, which requires them to spread justice and order. As they do this, they become stronger. Their oculus allows them to see disruptions, and their infundere allows them to infuse structure and order into the systems around them.

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 urielim 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 justfire, and their scutum will not allow the unjust to harm those behind it. Their oculus allows them to see entropy. They have a presence called a coram, which repels the chaotic and decaying.

Warriors gain power through service. For every 1,000 beings of pure evil they destroy, they gain a new power, capping at twelve:

  • First: Summon myrmecoleons
  • Second: Immunity to msawhat
  • Third: Binding coils
  • Fourth: Repair system
  • Fifth: Invoke the Law
  • Sixth: Increase willpower
  • Seventh: Shutdown system
  • Eighth: Shield victims
  • Ninth: Bind Name, once per Age
  • Tenth: Create new Law sacrifice
  • Eleventh: Command thandoers
  • Twelfth: Control army

The more evil a foe is, the more attacks a warrior has per round, capping at twelve.

Guardian

Guardian urielim protect the just and followers of Authority. 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 urielim have a power called teneo, which allows them to absorb injustice and entropy to protect their ward. Their oculus allows them to see disruptions, and their augere power allows them to increase the resolve 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 creates a complex defensive system around them.

Lord

Lord urielim are the most powerful of all angels. Their very presence exudes power. This is called coram. For lord urielim, their presence is one of order and structure, allowing them correct flaws in reality.

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:

Service

Urielim serve Authority.

Scribe urielim administer the work of Justice and Order. They keep track of the laws of all realms and followers of Authority. They do all of the minor tasks that make the realm of the Copper Sanctum work.

Herald urielim spread order and justice in the world. They leave the Sanctum and spread the Word, seeking out those mortals who will do great works of justice in the world and empowering them. They also carry messages for Authority between Him and other Divines.

Warrior urielim are the army of Justice and Law. They oppose evil in all its forms and serve as the Sanctum's defense against the powers of the Infernal. They are a just and fair army led by their General Aequenel.

Guardian urielim protect the just and followers of Authority. They exist as protectors. Holier beings sometimes have more than one guardian. They cannot leave their service to their ward, or they fall.

Lord urielim run the Sanctum and see to it that all other urielim are doing as they must.
