Dark Angel
| “ | The Dark Angels are, in accordance to your military rankings and operations, God's own "Black Ops" team of angels. Vengeful, wrathful, and hateful against all sin and evil. | „ |
| ~ Immanuel |
A Dark Angel is an angel who acts as a soldier of God, however, they are much different than fallen angels despite the similarities in their characteristics or traits.
They are spirits that inhabit a mortal body which then use them as vessels in order to exact their vengeance against the sinful and the depraved of the human world while also defending the virtuous from malevolent forces. These vessels in turn become a Ghost Rider.
Overview[]
The dark angels were originally a host of angels that had a seat within the Heavenly Council and oversaw the progress of Earth's humans. However, when humanity began using the knowledge given to them by the Watchers for corrupted and malevolent means, they slowly descended into sin and committed many great atrocities, which prompted these angelic hosts to grow extremely wrathful and hateful towards them.
Seeing their rage and willingness to exact wrathful justice and vengeance, God changed the positions of the angelic host to instead become His agents of divine vengeance. This in the process led to the formation and creation of the Dark Angels, whom were soon sent by God to inhabit a vessel of a human that abhors the violence and sin committed by their fellow man. This also, in turn, resulted in the birth of the legendary Ghost Rider.
Description[]
Dark angels, unlike normal angels, are more fierce, brutal, and cold in their actions. Whatever the action it may be that they are tasked with, they perform it with destructive tendencies and their results never cease to amaze other angels, even going so far as to install fear. Due to their attributes they are mostly regarded as spirits of vengeance and as such are overseen by Raguel, the archangel of vengeance.
They instigate war, hatred, and mass destruction to eradicate the filth, which are the humans who have gone so far down into corruption, and destroy the world so that a new world can be established. In some passages, these angels are regarded as the avengers of God's justice without being evil spirits. The dark angels are more feared than respected by lesser angels. Archangels, however, hold them in high regard rather than fear, and even go so far as to say that many of them possess the potential of being an archangel.
