Brother to Zaniel the Angel of Luck. He is the Angel of Culture ( Not an alternate account , a different user entirely )
http://www.comicvine.com/profile/zaniel/
Kafziel is a stubborn, regal angel with a deep love of art and culture. Because of his deep love for art, in the heavens and the Villa off the cost of Greece, he decorates his rooms with ancient Greek pottery, scrolls (Sometimes magical, because of this he has a basic understanding of spells). He is in his 800-900s, but he looks like he is in his late twenties. Instead of using brute force, Kafziel prefers to out-think his opponent and exploit any flaws.
History
Diplomatic relations because of Zaniel
After his brother Zaniel had recklessly broken into a sacred Chinese temple, relations between the Chinese and Greek gods had hit an all time low. The Chinese requested counsel with Zeus and asked him to punish Zaniel. Zeus refused to bow down to what he believed was an inferior culture. The Chinese refused to communicate with the Greeks again. In an effort to defuse the situation, Hermes sent Kafziel to heal the deep wounds. Kafziel's knowledge of diplomacy and persuasion proved invaluable, as he convinced the Chinese to seek further counsel.
Later, learning that Zaniel had been banished, His brother was the only family member who had not disowned him. He watched over his brother, he talked to Artemis and she persuaded him to go...and find Zaniel. He had been watching Zaniel with Zoe, with AmazingAngel going off on quests and even going with Madame Techia to another universe, not trying to redeem his powers. He was never going to gain his Angelic status back, Kafziel decided to put a stop to this. He went off in search of Zaniel, finding him on the Villa....
Powers
Culture - Being the Angel of Culture he has a passive power of persuasive or a "silver tongue" when talking to towns or cities, He has used this power in the past to make the Helots of Sparta agree to be slaves.
Multi-cultural language - He has the power to speak any language, and a passive power to grant this to people around him.
Angel Promise - If he shakes your hand and promises he cannot break the promise or he will die, when he gives you this promise it forms a bond through time and space.
Magical awareness - Beacuse of his connections to magic, He is aware whenever magical is around, he feels it, like a 6th sense. He does not always know who it is, but he can feel it. He cannot feel mutants though for example. And people CAN mask the powers from him.
Intangibility and heat - He has the natural ability to go intangible, this is beacuse in the Heavens, when they go to heaven and earth it speeds up the flying process. He can go through most mediums, the only thing that can stop an Angel from going intangible is heavy magic. Using his powers, he can heat up any object, if he touches a sword and grabs it, it can heat it up so the enemy drops the sword.
Angel Strength - His upper limit is somewhere in the 10-15 ton range.
Flight and wings- This is his most obvious power, he can fly with or without wings. Without wings he can fly close to double the speed of sound, with wings that turns into 3 times the speed of sound, His wings grant him protection against magical intrusions or energy based attacks. He also uses them to conceal his hands before attacking, he rarely takes his wings out however.
Reaction speeds - Beacuse of his flight speed, he is naturally able with powers to react to anything 5 times the speed of light, without powers however he can only react faster than the average Olympic athlete, he still has the speed beacuse of his past experience and his brain has learnt to process faster.
Resistance to physical damage - Because of his natural angel-like status he is resistance to physical damage that is caused solely by physical means, the second magic gets involved the resistance ends, the resistance is enough to stop an Adamantium knife being stabbed into his neck by a normal human. This is like a small energy shield around his body, but if somebody as strong as Captain America swung for his chest with a sword made out of that material, it will scratch him. Somebody like Hulk swinging it while fully enraged could end up being fatal.
Weapons
Sickles - Although Kafziel prefers to remain unarmed, he can use a pair of sickles to great effect when he needs to. The weapon, gifted to him by Hermes, is light and fast. It has been enchanted by Ares the God of war so it can harm ethereal, intangible opponents. They were crafted and made by the same people that Zaniels sword was made by, so they are virtually indestructible.
