introducing another OC from my uhhh let's just call it the Sinful Love-verse (SLverse), because that's what the original fic was called (now long deleted). This is my version of Samael, "Venom of God" and chief angel of death. :v
Height: 7ft
Eyes: Gold
Hair: Purple
Personality: Bitter, snarky, sarcastic, could be kind if you managed to pull at their heartstrings, secretly romantic, smart, competent
Redesign notes: he/him pronouns -> they/them pronouns, formerly male -> now androgyne. Also they now have tiddies :3
Some rambling on their backstory -> (LONG read)
.....First some things to mention: I'm not good depicting this, but my other angel OC Nemphis has one black wing and one white wing, and is technically a hybrid angel, or a fusion of angel and fallen angel. When he lost his angelic grace by sleeping with Mephisto, he was supposed to lose his angelhood and transform into a fallen angel.
But he didn't. He retained his angelic core, as well as his new demonic one. So he became a perfect hybrid, with total balance of good and evil - hence one white wing, one black wing.
^This is extremely rare. Unfortunately angel-fallen angel hybrids are seen as threats to Heaven (because they cannot be controlled/are not bound by Heaven/to God, and also are extremely powerful) - and so they're usually exterminated by Heaven.
Nemphis was captured and due to be executed but that whole story is gone with my fic so nvm all that. I just wanted to get the concept of angel hybrids out of the way. Moving on:
We now come to Samael...who has two black wings, and one white wing.
Samael is also an angelic-fallen angel hybrid. BUT the difference is, they aren't a "natural" hybrid like Nemphis is. They are the result of divine engineering - in fact, they are God's failed experiment.
Why was God trying to create his own hybrids? Shrug. Probably a form of angelic super-soldier, which is what Samael became. Samael was supposed to have one white and one black wing as well, to have good and evil in perfect balance within them - but the process failed.
Instead Samael is now more fallen angel than angel...but as a direct child of God, they are still bound to Heaven, unlike Nemphis. And also unlike Nemphis, Samael somehow retained their angelic grace.
God wanted to cast Samael out of Heaven, and nearly did so, near the beginning of time, but Samael grabbed Michael the Archangel's* wings as they were pushed (Michael was the one who threw them out) and nearly brought the other angel down with them.
Seeing that Samael was too dangerous to cast aside completely, God let them stay to serve Heaven instead, under tight and vicious control. Samael became the chief angel of death, an angel of the Apocalypse, and a high commander in the Angel Army.
Lucifer became aware of Samael's existence. And seeing how fair's fair, he asked to ALSO have some control of Samael, since Samael was more fallen angel than angel.
This was actually careful diplomacy. Imperfect hybrid though they are, Samael is actually extremely powerful and destructive and Lucifer didn't want God to have complete control over them. God relented. So Samael works for Heaven while moonlighting for Hell
|D;; (They aren't happy about this situation, or their life in general).
So what was their role in my SL story? .......I actually forgot, but I *think* it had something to do with getting Mephisto, Sunday, and their angel "friend" (captive) [I forgot his name, but he was an angel of winter], into Heaven to break Nemphis out of angel prison or whatever. :D;;
OH Mephisto was also totally smitten with them and wanted to tap that ass soooo bad but he's an incubus so no one batted an eye about this and Samael could easily rebuff him because they're strong af and Mephisto is a weakling lol
They also originally had 2 flaming katanas as weapons but I can't be assed to draw those. I might just give them one cool sword instead.
They also had a developing crush on Sunday I may or may not do something with. Idk.
TL;DR Samael is God's shittiest unloved unwanted powerful demon child and is v bitter about it. At least they're smokin hot with an ass that won't quit and perfect tits :) and a big ol dick :)) what are they complaining about anyway SMH /j

*Michael was also a chara in my fic. Lucifer showed up to take Nemphis' soul after Mephisto didn't give him up, and Michael appeared and rescued him. But he was fatally wounded by Lucifer in the process and "died", but revived later. Also in my fic, Lucifer and Michael were brothers, which is a popular media interpretation and I just like it :)
