Angels’ abilities are determine by their Sphere, Domain, and Weapon. They always have goals related to their domain; Angels of Love will try to matchmake while Angels of the Truth will try to bring old crimes to light. They are unsubtle, react with violence when opposed in any way, and have such a poor understanding of human anatomy that they can easily kill someone on accident. The Grigori are not stupid, however, and often work through human proxies.
 
Armor Gematria: Angels do not take damage that is a multiple of or contains the same digit as their sphere. So an Angel of the Sixth Sphere would suffer no HP loss if their attacker rolled 6, 12, 16, or 18 damage. Angels of the First Sphere only take damage that is a multiple of 13 or 666.

3. Dreams
• Immune to sleep spells. 
• Can physically enter dreams
• Can cast Sleep and Change Self at will. 
• Can create a waking dream at will. This functions as casting Phantasmal Supergoria, except that the illusion can consist of any number of objects and creatures with no volume restriction and can target all creatures in line of sight of the angel. Watchers, though insane, generally retain their sense of fair play and will not dream anyone into the bottom of the ocean or the center of the Earth unless they’re really angry.

7. Love
• At will, the angel can make any two sentient creatures in line of sight fall in love with each other; both must Save vs Magic or feel as though they had successfully and simultaneously cast Charm Person on each other. If one saves and the other doesn’t, the love is unreciprocated, and if anyone succeeds on their save to resist the angel’s power, they are forever immune to it.
8. Mathematics: Once per Turn, the Angel can ban a quantity of numbers equal to 8-its sphere.
• Whenever a dice roll results in a banned number, the check counts as a failure, the damage counts as 0, or the random roll results in nothing.
• If you are using a grid, no one can move a number of spaces equal to a banned number
• Groups with a banned number of members cannot approach the angel; if “1”, “2”, and “4” are banned, a party of 5 combatants could only attack the angel as a group of 3 or 5.
