General information:

Age: Sariel looks like a boy around age 10. But in truth, he is an ancient being. His age exceeds the bound of human understanding.
Nickname: Imp (by Gabryel)
Species: Avenging angel

Profession: Assassin
Gender: Appears to be male at first glance, but as it is often the case with angels, he has no actual gender and can present himself in whatever form or gender he desires.

Family: He has none. Concepts like 'family' do not apply to a heavenly being.
Appearance: On earth he looks like a child with big, icy blue eyes and very fair, immaculate skin. His hair is short and platinum blonde, but in his true form as an angel, he has longer hair, that reaches well beyond his hips. In his angelic form he is also a lot taller and has four white wings.
Personality: Cold, calculating, target-oriented and stoic. Mercy is just a word to him. Sariel never smiles (if he does, it's incredibly scary).

Likes/Dislikes: He has no likes, dislikes or preferences of any kind, these are for mortals only. He only has his orders and executes them, without questioning whether they are 'right' or 'wrong'. He firmly believes that it is not his place to question the divine plan and looks down upon those who defy it.

 

Back Story

History has no exact records of the appearance of angels upon the surface of this earth, but it is a fact that many of them, have wanderered the world. Some of them were tainted by humanity and thus developed weaknesses and turned to sin.

A few fallen ones even commited the worst of all offenses: to fall in love with humans. Whenever an angel would mate with a lowly mortal, it was against nature's - no, against heaven's - law. ThereforeI, when a child was the product of such a forbidden affair,  avenging angels would be sent to erase them from existence.


Sariel is one of these heavenly agents, tasked with the holy duty to undo the mistakes of the fallen ones - all in the name of divine order.

 

Ongoing Story

There's one sinful spawn who had slipped heaven's eyes for a long time: his name is Gabryel, and he is half angel, half human - thus, he has no right to exist.
Worse yet - Gabryel has committed a crime far greater than that: he also defiled another pure being - a seraph, who fell in love with him.

To punish him, Gabryel's memory of his time with said seraph was taken and Sariel was sent to annihilate him. Now he's tracking him down - and failure is not an option.

 

Trivia

  • Though it may seem gruesome, Sariel collects the feathers of those he killed as a token of his accomplishment.

  • He doesn't always present as a human, sometimes he shows up as an animal, usually as a snowy owl with blue eyes.
  • He is capable of wielding magic and a fiery sword in confrontation.
  • Random fact: Sariel smells like Lilies.
