Since before the creation of man Angels were among the first creations and those that survive to this day are among the more powerful non-divine beings in Eupheim. While new Angels are still periodically created, most modern Angels were once good mortals, their souls transforming into something greater upon reaching their destination in the planes. The true form of an Angel is often reminiscent of its mortal self, only taller, brighter, and more powerful. The relationship between a good mortal soul and Angel is common knowledge, and many mortal religions assume that all members of the faith in good standing becomes an Angel in the afterlife. Others confuse the issue by conflating famous mortals such as saints and martyrs with preexisting Angels that have similar names, or suggesting that Angels take human form to perform great deeds as mortals, returning to the heavens when their duties are over.

​

As they are spiritual creatures, Angels are given a physical form rather than creatures of flesh born of other creatures. They are blessed with extraordinary beauty, though their actual appearance vary widely. Though their gender is mutable as most Angels always use a male or female form, while others use both to appear androgynous. Since the creation of man mortals use the term loosely and apply it to any other mortal of beauty or who perform good deeds. Though most angels do not take affront at this, as they have more important things to deal with than mortal nomenclature.

​

Many religions include stories of Angels rebelling or becoming corrupt and evil. Sadly, this is indeed possible, though very rare, and only the proudest or weakest-willed Angels succumb to this fate. Fallen Angels are exiles of the high heavens, some become hunted by their former brethren and others become easy targets to demons as well. They lose some of the grace and light of their untainted kin, though many are said to still be tragically beautiful. However they are still strong in some capacity some may even be clever enough, to join the legions of Hell often becoming Demons of the abyss or even come to serve under a greater Demon.
