Angels are powerful, immortal beings generally considered only slightly less potent than the Gods. As a rule, they are associated with one or more gods, who they serve. Angels are sometimes worshipped by mortals, either independently or as part of their patron deity’s pantheon.

While a number of angels accompanied Menkharra or other deities when they arrived at Reshomme, these 'true angels' now share the title with others who were born mortal. These were once powerful worshippers of one deity or another who defied death and became immortal through their magic and faith. These are, in effect, ghosts with holy form, beings whose powerful belief in their own purpose has prevented them from passing on to heaven. A common topic of theological debate is what, if any, distinction there is between such entities and Demons - besides divine investment.
