Cassius's angelic features are a striking contradiction, blending celestial beauty with hints of a dark past.

Backstory
Cassius can still remember how the halls of Heaven shimmered with eternal light, each corner resounding with the symphony of angelic voices. Countless beings of grace and purity, and within them, he had always stood tall, his golden wings spread wide, their span unmatched in majesty. His name was revered, his presence a beacon of divine justice and eloquence. Every now and then a murmer would go through the congregation about his vanity or how although he fulfilled his duties flawlessly, Cassius often cast his gaze downward, toward the mortal realm. How he saw humanity—fragile, imperfect, and vulnerable—and a flicker of disdain began to take root in his soul.
He can recall the day he made his first remark, back in the time when romans ruled the world. “They are crude,” he had once murmered to a fellow angel, his crystal-blue eyes narrowing. “We, the perfect creations, bend so low for their sake. Why?” That was his first mistake. If he had wanted to stay in heaven, then keeping his mouth shut would have been the best decision. For the other angel hesitated but offered a gentle smile. “Because it is not for us to question. Their imperfection is a mirror of the Creator’s mercy.”
An excuse for an idiot in Cassius's mind, but back then he wasn't called Cassius. Seraphael had been his name, "The burning one of God", it was glorious. But many things would be soon stripped away. If only he had known, if he had stayed quiet and worked in secret.
Cassius had turned away that day, his jaw tightening with frustration and rage. That answer, that excuse, gnawed at him. Why should Heaven debase itself for the undeserving? Why should he, a being forged of light and power, lower himself for creatures so easily swayed by sin? He would never understand it, the stupidity of it all, how utterly humiliating it was to serve these parasites they called humans. But as time passed, Cassius’s questions festered, turning from curiosity into quiet defiance. He performed his tasks with precision but without the humility expected of an angel. Pride, that subtle poison, seeped into his every word and action.
And then, the moment of rebellion came.
Cassius’s resentment collided with an unshakable truth: he could no longer stand to sing the praises of beings he deemed beneath him. He couldn't stand the rediculousness of the situation. Being lesser than anyone besides his father, God, was just this side of treacherous.
The confrontation was inevitable. Before the Divine Presence, Cassius spoke not with repentance but with venomous conviction.
“We were made to stand as symbols of perfection,” he declared, his voice steady and resolute. “Yet we are chained to these flawed creatures as if their weakness could elevate us. I will not be bound by their wretchedness any longer. Father, humiliate us no longer.”
Cass can still remember the cold heat of his father's anger, how it was quiet but seething. How dare he, a servent of the lord, speak out against the so called "Greatest Creation"? He can still hear when a mournful silence filled Heaven. The other angels watching with a mixture of sorrow and dread as the Creator’s judgment fell upon him. How without a word, the light around Cassius dimmed, and the ground beneath him gave way.
The overwhelming dispair and betrayel he felt and fall, it was eternal, or so it seemed. His body was a blur of golden light streaking through a blackened void, but the fire of his rebellion burned brighter still. The humans called him a comet as he streaked across the night sky, beautiful to those on earth. But what is beauty if not pain? As he neared the earth, the searing heat consumed him, singeing his once-pristine feathers and leaving trails of ash in his wake. When he finally struck the earth, the impact was thunderous. His wings crumpled beneath him, their elegant frames snapping like brittle branches. Pain, foreign and overwhelming, coursed through his body. It felt redhot, his skin bubbled with blisters he had never experienced before. It felt hard to sit up for the pain was so intense. Cracked ribs, shredded and mutilated wings, feathers strewn about the crashsite. The hole he lay in was a crater, although what can you expect when something crashes onto earth from universes away.
Cassius eventually clawed at the scorched earth, dragging himself upright. His broken wings hung limply, the once-dazzling gold now marred with blackened tips and jagged gaps. A faint, acrid scent of burnt feathers clung to him. For the first time, Cassius felt what it was to be vulnerable. But vulnerability was a sensation he could not bear.
In the shadows of the mortal world, Cassius noticed a figure awaited him—Lucifer Morningstar himself. His presence was magnetic, his fallen beauty a cruel reflection of the Heaven they once shared. His idol, the angel he had walked along side before he fell with Cassius falling centuries later.
Lucifer’s voice was smooth as silk when he addressed Cassius.“Ah, another one who has seen the truth. Tell me, Cassius, what do you seek now?”
Cassius’s voice, though trembling, was resolute. “I seek perfection, brother. I want to be free from the weakness of emotion, from the chaos of doubt. Make me whole, as I was meant to be.”
Lucifer regarded him with a smile that was both pitying and approving. “Perfection, you say? Very well. But remember, Cassius, perfection comes at a price.”And so, it was done. The warmth of emotion drained from Cassius, leaving a hollow, icy clarity. Love, fear, joy—these were discarded as one sheds unnecessary weight. He rose from his knees, no longer burdened by the fragility of feeling. Yet, in his pursuit of perfection, he had traded something profound. His humanity was gone, a divine entity that was nothing more than a husk of his former self.
