Seraphim (Supernatural)

Cost: 30 SP

Created by God, you are a celestial being known as a Seraphim. You are responsible for maintaining Heaven and fighting against the Demons of Hell in an eternal war. Similar to your demonic counterparts, you too can only interact with the physical world through the usage of a human body, called a vessel. However, unlike demons, you require permission to possess your vessel (though how you obtain that permission is up to you). Through the Cyoa, your current body or the body you choose to be either Inserted or Reincarnated into will be transformed into a perfect vessel for you.

As a Seraphim, your spiritual form and voice will prove overwhelming to most mortals. It can cause effects such as burning eyes or bleeding eardrums. Your size has been described as "approximately the size of the Chrysler Building." When outside of a vessel and on the physical plane, you will appear to humans as either a brilliant white light or a bluish luminous smoke.

Becoming a Seraphim has granted you a whole host of abilities, such as nigh-invulnerability (angels are immune to all forms of harm except Angel Blades, Holy Fire, and beings more powerful than themselves, such as Archangels, an Primordials). You also possess limited cosmic awareness, allowing you to have knowledge and awareness of certain topics in the universe, including demons, Enochian symbols and magic, spells, prayers, and all languages (dead or alive, written and spoken). Angelic senses and perception are incredibly enhanced, enabling you to recognize beings based on their body odor and genes, see atoms and ions, hear conversations from miles away, and taste every molecule in a meal. You can also see the true form of other angels, demons, and reapers, as well as sense the location of every being in the universe, except those protected by Enochian magic and those stronger than you who choose to hide and Teleporting whereever you senses reach. Furthermore, you possess limited chronokinesis, allowing you to travel through time, send others forward or backward through time, and manipulate time itself (e.g., freezing or speeding it up). However, repeated use of these abilities can be draining on your Grace. Additionally, you have a whole host of additional abilities, including reality warping, telepathy, telekinesis, high level healing & Biokinesis, advanced Dreamwalking, and the ability to hear prayers directed at you.

You have also been given an Angel Blade and Sword. These weapons can be used to kill most supernatural beings by channeling your Grace/Soul against your opponents. However, they are unable to kill beings stronger than you, such as Archangels. If lost or stolen, you will always be able to call them back to you.

Be aware that while within a vessel, angels only possess their powers thanks to their Grace. If your Grace is taken or drained, you become like a human, retaining only your angelic senses, while your Grace slowly regenerates. The regeneration process could take months or even years, depending on how much has been taken.

As a side effect of having cosmic senses, you are unable to enjoy food like usual. Your heightened senses allow you to taste EVERYTHING you eat. Therefore, if you want to enjoy food again like a regular person, it is recommended to choose a cooking power or the perk "Holding Back."
