Applaud (Source) While still a member of the third sphere, applauds are one step above affinities, and thus known as archangels. Occupying the eighth position within the nine-level angelic hierarchy, archangels are still considered close to the physical world, and often come into contact with human kind. It is said that devoted prayer on the part of believers can call upon a flock of angels to come to one's aid. Variant: Applaud Twinblades Some applauds have a pair of divine twinblades instead of a divine halberd. The applaud can combine its twinblades into a single divine longbow as a bonus action, and vice versa. Multiattack. The applaud makes two divine twinblade attacks. Divine Twinblade. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) slashing damage plus 9 (2d8) radiant damage. Divine Longbow. Ranged Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, range 150/600 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d8 + 3) piercing damage plus 9 (2d8) radiant damage.
