Gemstoned Angel[edit]
“ | The radiance shines brighter through the wings of the greater. | ” |
Physical Description[edit]
Gemstoned angel's appear to be lanky elf like humanoids with quite colorful skin tones, Mostly on the pastel side of colors gemstoned angels have a set of wings that are made of gems that glow from the sunlight and a gem like halo that has been chipped with the pieces floating near the halo, This halo can never be fixed ever no matter what spells you cast upon it, No matter the gender a gem stoned angel seems to have long eye-lashes. They also hold yellow scelera with pupils that glow just as bright as the wings do as well.

History[edit]
Gemstoned angel's was born and created during the time where angels was flying about in churches, The pretty glass like structures caused some angels to modify themselves to mimic the stained windows that the churches had, This was a painful task for the angels as it required them to rip their own feathers from their wings one by one. Only those that could handle every feather managed it and soon enough gemstoned angels started to grow. But most angels found them weird as nature did not allow for this type of angel at all, Causing the gemstoned angels to be treated as outcasts and soon enough all of them become the equivalent of a fallen angel as nobody wanted them at all.
Society[edit]
Due to being pushed away, gemstoned angels created their own rules within the churches of other towns, Most of the people in these churches pray towards the angels thinking it'll give them better chances at heaven... But the gemstoned angels all decided to use these people to get what they want, Food? Pride? Entertainment? It didn't matter to them as heaven treated them wrong so why should they care? This causes most of the gemstoned angels to form a massive gossip ring as they enjoy talking about the townsfolk and how worthless the human life can truly be... Obviously when people are in the area they put on a fake face and act all holy and mighty but they never cared truly at all.
