Rating
Sexual Content 2: Sexual content is permitted. References and writing about genitalia and sex acts are permitted, but explicit detail is not. Fade to black, or use the dotdotdot rule. (Let's keep it PG-13.)
Violence 2: Graphic violence is permitted. Explicit description or in-game narration violence is allowed.
Despite these ratings, keep in mind that there is a limit, and you should not cross it just to garner attention. Also, resorting to curse words is also like adding senseless fluff to your posts.

The Looks
The appearance differs from court member to court member. Almost all of them use white and gold within their color schemes. Exceptions, of course, exist.
The Personality
While all members of the Seraphic Court are variable in personality, all have one thing in common: an unflinching commitment to the safeguarding - and guidance of - humanity. Some are more militant in this goal than others.
The Story
The exact formation of the Seraphic Court is not entirely understood. However, it is believed to be older than human civilization. As time went on and humanity advanced both in its capacity to build and its capacity to destroy, the Seraphic Court would become split - especially at the turn of the 20th Century on how to deal with mankind’s increasing propensity for self destructions.
Several members saw humans - and by extension, Meta-humans - as threats to the stability of the world, citing the susceptibility to the manipulations of otherworldly beings, with demons being chief among them. However, other Divines could see sparks of hope within the humans, even if the sparks were still too small right now. They firmly believed that humans were flawed, but still had the potential to bring great good and beauty to the world - all that they needed was some guidance that would help them display this beauty.
To that end, while most of the Seraphic Court remained isolated from the human realm, several others willingly gave up their immortality to act as guides among humans. Ultimately, the debate reached a stalemate. Both sides were equally matched and neither side was willing to relent. To this day, the Seraphic Court lies only below both the Three Ascendants and Compassion herself in the loose hierarch on the Disciples of Virtue.
Physically speaking, members of the Seraphic Court run the gamut from being angelic beings to simply taking the appearance of creatures of mythological folklore, such as a youkai.
The Powers
The exact nature of a court member’s power varies between individuals. All that remain Divine, however, hold one thing in common: functionally, they are immortal when walking on Earth, unable to be killed for good unless in their own realm.
For example, Caius - a frumentarii in his life during the Roman Empire - is effectively the Court’s Spymaster, having eyes in basically every spot on Earth and even a few other realms where he - theoretically - shouldn’t be while remaining undetected.
Another example, Clotho (named for one of the Fates of Greek mythology), is effectively both a healer and a precog.
For the sake of brevity, the list of the Courtiers is as follows:
-Talos: Divine Giant of pure metal. Tougher than other Divines and dedicated tank.
-Elmer: Divine golem of rock and earth; brandishes a blade and is a geomancer - chief warden of the Seraphic Court.
-Eudora: Among the oldest of the Seraphic Court, she is known for holding the power of the Phoenix, despite her name implying water powers.
-Caius: Divine angel of secrets; spymaster who can see everywhere, with little combat potential.
-Serafina: Divine healer; a guide to the departed.
-Catherine: Divine Courtier of Fate and Predictions; chronomancer with the ability to slow or hasten time within a radius around herself.
-Victoria: Divine Angel of conquest; general strength to cut through even steel with her blade.
-Karnak: Divine lord of progress; father of holy-infused machines.
-Lachesis: Divine healer named for one of the Fates of Greek Mythology.
-Mei Fang: Divine swordmaster; affiliated in some way with the dragons of China, whose souls augment her strength enough to cut even through toughened tank armor.
-Talia: Divine nine-tailed fox; a matron of the kitsune youkai of Japan and holds dominion over illusion magic and the manipulation of the mind.
-Talanis: Divine mistress of lightning and storms; smites evil with the raw power of lightning.
-Clotho: Divine Predictor of the future and healer of the injured.
-Atropos: Mortal woman who deliberately gave up her Immortality to live and aid humans; bringer of faith and morale, her magic is all about bolstering the strength and resilience of the noble-hearted.
The Weaknesses
Most of the Divine members' powers can only function for relatively short spans of time when in the human world. In addition, they are vulnerable to specific weaponry - generally demonic as well as anti-Meta. When killed in such a manner, they are sent back to their home realm and must spend time recovering. Eudora - with the power of the Phoenix - is exempt from this weakness, rising from her own ashes, but can be banished with other forms of magic.
Atropos is one of the few members of the Seraphic Court than can be killed through conventional methods.
Most of the Divines cannot actually harm a human of pure heart.
The Items
The items tend to vary between members, but most act as the focus they use to make use of their abilities.
The Minions
Only two members have minions of any kind: Karnak and Talia. Karnak, as a lord of machines, can summon divine-infused automatons to his side in battle. Talia, however, has dominion over kitsune spirits and youkai, and can summon them to assist in her illusion.
The Fluff
The Seraphic Court, at present, harbors thirteen Divines and one human who willingly gave up her immortality.
