Angel

Angels (エンジェル) are magical beings that are summoned from another realm and a race players could choose to be. Many people believe that they are God's envoys, especially the people of the Slane Theocracy.

Background
In the New World, humans, especially those from the Slane Theocracy, view Angels as envoys of the divine, though this topic is the subject of much debate and source of conflict between human nations. However, they are regarded as incredibly powerful magical beings that can lay waste to the land.

In YGGDRASIL, the class and power of the Angels are ranked based on the Christian celestial hierarchy. Below are a list of angels from highest to lowest in rank.

First Sphere - Heavenly Counselors

 * Seraph Empyrean
 * Seraph Aesphere
 * Cherubim Gatekeeper

Second Sphere - Heavenly Governors

 * Dominion Authority: A 7th tier summon.

Third Sphere - Heavenly Messengers

 * Principality Observation: A 4th tier Summon
 * Principality Peace: A 4th tier Summon.
 * Archangel Flame: A 3rd tier Summon.
 * Angel Guardian : A 2nd tier Summon.

Appearance
They resemble brilliant and winged humanoids, who are stoic and silent, and decorated in shining armor as well as religious robes. The common trait they all seem to share is the ability to bring a wave of hope and strength to their allies.

Abilities
All angels have the ability to fly and use divine powers. Their level of power depends on their class.

Culture
Similar to demons, an angel's name hold great significance. Such as if an angel wants to show up in the New World, it has to engrave its name into that world. Therefore, they can’t use false names. Experiments show that using a false name might even cause them to disappear on the spot.
