Description EDIT: Not sure if people will do this, but I wanna answer questions for this bab cuz I wanna elaborate more on her (and draw her more as well) So it'd be much appreciated if ya left a Q or 2. ;v;

{{This is Netheriel, the younger sister to Malanthius. Unlike her older brother who embodies endless darkness and malevolence, she is basically the embodiment of divine light and benevolence, and has retained her Seraph status (Malus was once a normal Seraph angel like her, but due to certain events, he was cast down from their home and his wings of light became literal skeletal shadows of what they had once been). Netheriel is a very mysterious and powerful Seraph being who, like the rest of her kind, originated from a reality/universe parallel to ours but escaped to our current one after theirs was destroyed. She rules over the realm of Novus Caelus, or in other words, the "New Heavens", which was built after the world they had once lost, only slightly smaller. Netheriel usually keeps her face hidden away in her hood, so she appears to be just a faceless entity. Her wings are made purely of divine, holy light, and it is said that new Seraphs are born from the very plumes that drop from them. As for her halo, it is constantly floating above her head, and the archaic circles within it are always slowly spinning in the opposite direction of each other. She will occasionally be seen with a veil attached to it, mainly as a way to filter the light she radiates, since she's so bright. 
Netheriel is also said to be one of the most gentle, and compassionate beings of their kind, and believes that there should be harmony and peace for both her world and others. However, she is not a pacifist, and will resort to using force if need be, knowing that conflict is both an unavoidable and inevitable, thus she does not shy away from it when necessary.However, while her kind were once the protectors and creators of their former realm, she is well aware that it is no longer their place to intervene or change anything in the reality of this universe. Thus, it is strictly forbidden for her people to intervene and or tamper with the fabric of reality and space/time of this realm. However, she will continue to protect the mortal worlds and races within it, as she had eons before in their former realm. 
I'm still messing around with her design, and I'm making this a thing where my version of seraphs don't really have any distinguishable features unless they take a human/mortal form, thus, why they are "faceless", but they can choose to have distinguishable features if they so wish. I would've shaded some places to make it look like she had a face but I got lazy and I'm tired as hell, so yeah. Enjoy this lady, and I might post a separate picture of her w/ her veil later one possibly. 8U.}}

A question to your Angel.
Why do you care so much for for the living?
Do you still care for your brother, who is the opposite of you?
Why are you so awesome looking and have such an awesome story?

Lance: New heaven eh? Is it anything like the elemental realms? Mainly the realm of light? I was exiled from there so... Well I guess I protect the people of the other realms now.

Q.
May we see a form you've taken in the past for whatever reason? Or have you never taken another form except your own natural one?

Ah yes, those are runes in her halo. But to be totally honest, I literally just scribbled random things in her halo to make it look archaic and such, just to add to the aesthetic and also have some future meaning or something in the future. I honestly have no clue as to what they might even mean, but eh, they made her appear a little more mysterious and "angelic" I guess. Lol XD

I am really digging the runic-esque halo hanging over her head. 

There's something aesthetically pleasing with those symbols levitating about the
inner ring of the halo. Probably the fact that it it somewhat looks like Arabic writing, 
but that is just me. 

Gotta say though, that this was really quite the bright piece of work you've done here. 
Something I underestimated when I just looked at it in my notifications, so you can 
probably imagine my first reaction when this fully loaded-- whoops, heh.

{{Ahhh thank you~! ;o; Amd as for the writing in the halo, that was probably the first thing I noticed, it kinda does look a bit like Arabic. XD however that was completely unintentional, I literally just scribbled around in the inner part of the halo to make some sort of archaic font of sorts, idk, but I thought it made sense to put it there for aesthetic reasons. And yes this was VERY bright, my eyes are still killing me and I hope I will never have to torment my eyes like that again for a good loooooooong while. XP lol but again, thank you~ I'm glad you like this. uvu

Certainly, my friend, you did a pretty swell job yet again, what with this here drawing.

Huh, well I'll be. Well, Intentional or unintentional, it certainly caught my eye and curiosity- and inquiry as to ask what the writing had meant. But I suppose at this point, I can just assume the symbols within her halo may probably just reflect her character or, y'know, repeat 'holy'- or something along those lines- as they go about in a rotating fashion in her halo, haha.

Still, the archaic font you whipped out as purely just design is quite the interesting aesthetic thing. To that, I say very nice, yo-

As for the brightened effect that this here piece gave off, I hope for your sake you don't go blind if you gotta do another piece such as this. Certainly had me seeing stars, and possibly a glimpse of the heavens- but yeah. Again, tis no problem, friend. I look forward to whatever else sort of art you got in store.
