Angel


 

Angels all have certain abilities : they are immune to hunger, thirst, and fatigue. They do not need to sleep, eat, or breath. They are highly resistant to physical harm, taking only 20% of the damage from physical non-magical attacks. Angela also quickly regenerate wounds, it usually takes a matter of hours to recover from normal wounds. Should an angel take enough damage to kill an equivalently sized mortal (taking into account the damage resistance) then it will be banished from the material plane back to the Celestial Realm. When an angel is destroyed, it can return to the earthly plane after a decade of rest.

Angels default to having double peak human strength, dexterity, and toughness.

Angels get to select 10 powers from the list below:

Greater Regeneration
The angel regenerates damage at a much faster rate, recovering from minor injuries within seconds and more severe damage in minutes.

Holy Fire
The angel can shoot holy fire from the tips of his fingers. This flame only damages sapient creatures, the more evil the creature is the more severally it is burned. Other angels and humans of great virtue are not harmed at all by holy fire. This attack has a range of 100 feet.

Angelic Wings
The angel has huge feathery wings that allow it to fly at a speed of 75 mph.

Iron Flesh
The angel's skin is supernaturally tough, being as resistant to harm as a class III bullet proof vest, yet just as soft and supple as normal human flesh. This power can be selected a second time giving the angel incredibly strong flesh, like class V body armor, but it will be rigid and will appear (and feel) to be scales, plates, armor, or something else equally conspicuous.

Mind Reading
This power allows the angel to read the mind of any creature it looks upon, allowing it to learn surface thoughts and with prolonged time and concentration, even deep memories. This power allows the angel to sense the sins and virtues of intelligent creatures with but a glance.

Holy Light
The angel can glow with a brilliant light. This light inspires confidence and courage in all of the angel's allies and strikes fear into the hearts of evil doers. This light counts as true sunlight to creatures that are vulnerable to the light of day. This ability counters and is countered by magical darkness.

Holy Knowledge
The angel has access to vast amounts of knowledge and can answer virtually any question which is publicly known by humans. It knows all languages, knows virtually all of history and science, can answer any trivial question, and is fluent in java script as well as Klingon.

Divine Champion
The angel's physical prowess is enhanced. It receives +1 Strength and +1 Toughness or +.5 Dexterity. This power can be selected multiple times.

Animal Friend
The angel can command up to 1000 pounds of animals at a time, al of which much be vertebrates.

Holy Fury
Against creatures of evil, the angel receives +1 Strength and +.5 Dexterity in combat.

Healing Touch
With but a touch, the angel can heal diseases or injuries in others. Doing this takes but a few seconds, but the angel is weakened for an amount of time based on the severity of the injury. Minor cuts or bruises create weakness lasting an hour, a day for moderate injuries that might require hospital treatment or for illnesses that can be recovered from, and a week for severe injuries like being on the brink of death, being permanently maimed, or having an incurable or terminal illness. During this time of weakness, the effectiveness of all supernatural powers is halved, the angel is 25% slower and weaker, and the angel cannot use this healing power. By selecting this power a second time, the duration of all weakening is reduced by one step. By selecting this power a third time, the angel can heal without being weakened.

Charismatic
The angel is supernaturally likable and all who encounter it will feel positively inclined towards the angel. This will not work on enemies or cause people to act out of their nature, but the angel will make friends and influence others with ease.

Teleportation (counts as two powers)
The angel can teleport anywhere that it has been before with just a split second of concentration. There is a 10 minute cool down between teleportations.

Gigantic
The angel is huge, 8 feet tall or more, and has incredible physical power. This angel finds its Strength and Toughness increased by 3 each. This power halves the fae's flying speed, if it can fly.

Flaming Body (counts as two powers)
The angel has a body of pure holy flame. Its touch causing terrible wounds to creatures of evil and it is immune to purely physical and non-magical attacks.

Holy Weapon
The angel has a blessed weapon which is capable of inflicting terrible wounds on creatures of evil and will also cut through non-magical creatures with ease. This weapon cannot be taken away form the angel and reforms with him if destroyed.

Stunning Smite
The angel can wave its hand and all enemies within 30 feet will be stuck with holy energy, stunning them for 10 minutes if they are mortal and 1 minute if they are supernatural.

Rain of Judgement
The angel can call down holy fire over a large area, burning all evil doers in that area. This attack has a range of line of sight and burns everything in a 100 diameter. The prerequisite for the power is Holy Fire.

Aura of Peace
The angel is surrounded by an aura of peace with a radius of 50 feet. No creature can initiate a violent action within this radius unless it is the target of violence first. If the angel tries to take an aggression action, it loses the aura of peace for 24 hours.

Touch of Repentance
The angel can touch an evil person and cause them to feel terrible guilt for their past acts and causes them to try to change their lives. This affects only mortals, not supernatural creatures of evil.

Resurrection
With a touch, the angel can restore a mortal to life. This causes he angel to lose its hold on the material plane, causing it to disappear for one month for each day the mortal was dead for. The prerequisite for the power is Healing Touch.

Dispel Curse
The angel can dispel any curse or negative magical effect on a creature or object. This requires merely a touch and a minute of concentration from the angel. This will not reverse effects which the target willingly accepts upon themselves.

Resistance
The angel has a 50% chance to resist any negative supernatural effect that targets it. Furthermore, even if it falls victim to such a power it only has half of the effect and duration.

Divine Lightning
The angel can shoot lightning from its fingertips with a range of 1000 feet. This is normal lighting for all practical purposes once it hits a target.

Blessing
The angel can bless some object or activity, making it especially lucky. A field that is blessed will produce a wonderful yield of crops, a car that is blessed will seldom crash or breakdown, a person who is blessed will have exceptional luck, etc. No blessing lasts longer than a year, nor is the good luck from the blessing all powerful. Luck from a blessing cannot be exploited for selfish purposes - while it may allow a blessed person to gain enough money to feed their family, they will not be able to use a blessing to get rich gambling in Vegas.

Fallen
The angel is no longer allied with the Celestial Plane or other angels. The angel no longer has to follow any sort of code of conduct. This must be selected in conjunction with Hated, as angels are not fond of betrayers.
