Physical Description
Though his face is young and unlined, Joseph's hair is an almost glowing white, paired with fair skin and pale blue eyes combined to give him a rather ethereal appearance. Despite his size, at first glance he seems rather frail, as though he doesn't quite exist in the world (of course, those who mistake this impression for truth and attempt to take advantage of it will quickly regret it).

Often Joseph favors loose, baggy clothing that conceals a warrior's well trained body. Not matter what he does though, there tends to be a sort of aura of power about him, almost like a glow, that he just can't shut off. He can however hide his jet black wings, able to summon or vanish them at will.

Personality
As an angel, Jophiel was a loyal servant and protector, unquestioning of his orders. If left to his own devices however, he would always choose the path that he thought would protect the most lives- and sometimes the decision was heartbreaking: save a village at the cost of a family, protecting several thousand lives by sacrificing several hundred. He felt responsible for each life lost, and gradually sank lower and lower into a sort of melancholy that his Mistress didn't understand.

Now more human, Joseph's personality has remained much the same, but with an added fascination with the intricacies of human life. His melancholy has been replaced with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge.

Magic/Abilities
In addition to his senses, speed, and strength being augmented by angelic power (as well as of course the ability to fly), Joseph can detect demonic presences and expel or purify them. He is accomplished at combat with a lance and shield, though he prefers to avoid conflict if possible.

He is also a healer, able to cure minor wounds and illnesses with just a touch.

Relationships
His Mistress, a goddess of Justice and Vengeance, and several contacts in his old garrison, though he only has contact with these entities through dreams.

History
Joseph's history is long and varied, but it really boils down to him serving as a soldier and protector for the goddess he was created for. However, he always had a fascination with the mortals he was charged with protecting, and over the millennia grew more and more disillusioned with life as an angel.

Eventually, he sought permission from his Mistress to take a "leave of absence". She agreed, and gave him the span of one human life to sate his curiosity on the mortal plane.
