[QUOTE="Shade, post: 4847798, member: 287"] [B]Virtues[/B] The Virtues are the order of Angels that most commonly deals with men. Their principal duty is to work miracles upon the Earth. They are also said to be the chief bestowers of grace and valor. As such, there is a possibility that they can reward an especially deserving human with an increase in charisma. The Virtues often appear as perfectly formed humans with glowing countenances (very similar to what we expect an angel to appear like today). It is common for a Virtue to be accompanied by 2-12 Angels (9th order). It was written that two Virtues accompanied by 12 Angels prepared Eve for the birth of Cain in Davidson’s monograph The Celestial Virtues. The two angels pictured in the Ascension are commonly believed to be Virtues. The Princes of the Virtues are: Uzziel, Gabriel, Michael, Peliei, Barbiel, Sabriel, Haniel, Hamaliel, and Tarshish. Frequency: Rare Number appearing: 1 or 2 Armor Class: -3 Move: 9/24 Hit Dice: 10 Number of Attacks: 1 Damage: 2-12 Special Attacks: See below Special Defenses: +2 or better to hit Magic Resistance: 65% Intelligence: Exceptional Alignment: Lawful Good Size: M (6-8’ tall) It is not uncommon for a Virtue which has been sent to the Material plane to have been given the ability to perform one specific miracle that is beyond its normal powers. These would be major miracles, such as stopping the sun or parting the Red Sea. All Virtues have the following powers which can be used once per round as often as desired: Command; Create Food or Water; Cure Disease, Blindness, or Insanity; Hold Person; Speak with Dead; Cure Serious Wounds; Neutralize Poison; Insect Plague; Raise Dead; True Seeing; and Find the Path. Once per day Virtues may perform a Restoration or Resurrection. If attacked, a Virtue will summon 2-12 Angels for assistance.
