Name: Angel Markham
Race: Human (mutated)
Age: 18
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 152 lbs
Physical Description: A short, slender young man of mixed race, He has dark skin, blue eyes and black hair. His face is naturally smooth, due to his age and heritage. He sometimes tries to grow a small goatee, but never really pulls it off well enough to keep it. He is covered in burn and knife scars thanks to the Divine Right. His most stunning feature are the wings on his back. Measuring 9 feet from tip to tip when spread, they are Angels' only mutation. They look similar to the wings of a peregrine falcon, grey and speckled, with white underneath. The tips of the larger feathers are silver on the underside.
Possessions: A rosary, a bible, a Glock 34 pistol, a blackthorn walking staff with Latin and religious symbols carved into it, and a monks robe re-designed to fit his wings. (The robe pulls up between his wings, and then ties to the front, with a cowl hood covering the ties. He has to have help tying it when he takes it off and needs to put it back on.)
Profession: Before the explosion, Angel was a student at the seminary beside the Saint Michaels' Church of Divine Light. He was in training and study to become a priest, following what he felt as his divine calling. His only hobby was training carrier pigeons and taking care of his pet peregrine falcon Invictus. When the explosion happened, Angel tried to save his falcon. The explosion disintegrated Invictus, and the Priest of Saint Michaels believes that the atoms of Invictus and the chemicals of the explosion around Angel caused the wing mutation. Angel on the other hand, counts this as a miracle, saying that God made him His avenging Angel on Earth. Due to their now different theological standpoints, Angel and Father Russ no longer have much to do with each other.
Abilities/Traits: Angel can fly, and due to his childhood is a decent shot. His religious fervor could be classified as a power. He gives oratory to the other mutants, telling them why they are better than humanity, that God made them this way to take over the world, to remake it in their image.
Weaknesses: As a man, Angel has few weaknesses. As the mutated Angel of Vengeance, he has many. He is emaciated from the constant work of flapping his wings when they fly, coupled with what is most likely a more avian in nature metabolism. Due to a run in with the Divine Right, he is almost paralyzed with his fear of fire. The smell of burnt flesh or feathers can put Angel into an almost catatonic state.
Background:
Angel grew up the son of an Irish American father and an immigrant mother, her home country being El Salvador. Growing up with his mothers family after his fathers death at a young age, Angel began running around with his mothers cousins and nephews, members of the MS-13 Street Gang. Growing up robbing and shooting guns was a daily thing. When he turned 13, his mother placed him under the watch of Father Russ, to help take care of and steer Angel right.
Finding a deep and unshakable faith in God and Jesus, Angel denied his old life, placing everything he had to become a priest in the Catholic Church. Years later, when Angel was 18, he enrolled in the seminary school to complete and further his teachings and training. Then came to explosion and his mutations. As Father Russ tried to explain what had happened, Angel stopped him. Saying that this was Gods will, Angel left the Church to try and convert the people back to God, saying he would help them.
After being captured for heresy by the Divine Right faction, Angel was tortured for a time. The cut at his sensitive feathers, pulling on them, burning them, burning the sensitive pin feathers, only just luckily not killing him. Angel was rescued by a mutant known as Rynoc. A huge man before his mutation, Rynoc was made even stronger and tougher by the explosion. Taking Angel under his wing, Rynoc taught him the rhetoric of why mutants were superior to humans. Taking it to heart, even to see Rynoc as the first prophet of mutant kind, Angel began preaching the Gospel Superior, A New Testament for Mutant Kind. When a battle between the Divine Right and the mutants went badly and Rynoc was killed, Angel stepped in and took over the group. He holds service every Sunday morning, Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights. He despises the name Heretics Invictus, but only the Heretics part. He is willing to be an Angel of Mercy and Divine Light to mutant kind, and an Angel of Blood, Death and Vengeance to all of humanity.
Role Play Sample: Angel knelt at the Holy Altar, lips moving in prayer. He finished the prayer to God, and stood, turning to look at his flock.
"God, in his wisdom, sent Jesus to save humanity. In his Divine Wisdom, he caused the explosion that changed so many of us. The Great Deceiver protected those he would call his own, keeping them from Gods plan of Divine Gifts. For these are not mutations my flock." Angel spoke as he walked down to the pews, resting his hand on the head of a young boy, maybe 5 years of age, who had horns and tusks growing from his face and mouth, his eyelids fused together by the blast. "See no evil. Randy here can no longer see the evil this world would tempt him with. This child will grow his whole life, not seeing the evils of this world. For God is that great, he would do that for the boy. Who here would deny the receivers of Gods gifts from rising to the top of this new world?"
The mutants in the pews howled as one if they could, "NONE FATHER ANGEL!"
Angel raised his arms and unfurled his wings, a harsh birdlike shriek on the tail end of his words, "FOR WE ARE THE CHOSEN OF GOD! AND WE WILL NOT BE DENIED OUR PLACE IN PARADISE!"
