Sauran Pantheon of Angels

The Sauran Pantheon of Angels is the massive and complex organization of the Angels which comprise the Sauran belief system. The Pantheon is usually shown in a family tree format, with Deus at the top, as Father of All Angels, and the innumerous minor Angels adorning the lowest tier. Each Angel is a patron of a certain aspect of life, such as Love, War, Music, et cetera.

Tier One Angels: The Seraphic Council
The Seraphic Council is the name ascribed to the most powerful Angels, those who command the most basic and powerful aspects. Aside from Nocturne and Celestius, however, most of the Seraphic Council is disregarded by Karnasaurs, as their domains are too vague and broad for most cases. Rather, tier two Angels are typically invoked for needs of aid or guidance.

Nocturne
Angel of the Night, Nocturne is considered by the mainstream Sauran faith (Nocturnism) to be the Regent Angel, leader of the Angels and Seraphic Council in the absence of Deus. He is thus associated with all matters concerning life in general, and is prayed to in moments of need when one requires the most powerful force available to aid them. Many Karnasaurs swear 'by the stars' and invoke the name of the stars when invoking Nocturne, though a few actually use his name. His titles include He Who Brings the Night, Nightbringer, Lord of the Stars, and Regent of Starlight. His consort is the Angel of the Moon, Luna.

Celestius
Angel of the Day, Celestius is the metaphorical devil figure in Sauran culture. As his domain is inherently malficial to the Karnasaurs, they consider him to be an enemy to their existence. It is believed that Celestius has a deep grudge against Nocturne for usurping the role of Regent Angel, and this grudge is the source of several fictions, most notably the recent blockbuster film He Who Brings the Night, in which Celestius is shown as the antagonist trying to cause the apocalypse as vengeance against the Karnasaurs. A few still worship him, however, as remnants of the ancient Sylvan civilization. These cultists are called Celestians, and from their most radical members are spawned the ancient and powerful Sauran cult-terrorists, the Hashaeon. Celestius' other titles include The Sun Lord, Daybringer, King of Day, Lord of Saurasol, and Lord of the Hashaeon.

Sensus
Angel of Emotion, Sensus is an example of an Angel that, although is very powerful, is not prayed to often nor is widely revered. Sensus is a member of the Seraphic Council as one of Nocturne's advisors, speaking in favor of the most emotional and 'soulful' approach. While Sensus is, by nature, a being capable of great love, compassion, and a patron of the arts, he is also, by his nature, capable of intense hatred, cruelty, and wrath. As Angel of Emotion, he does not remain in any one state of mind; For this reason, most Karnasaurs pray to his children when faced with concerns of love, anger, misery, et cetera. His titles include The Unpredictable and The Mad Angel. His consort is Logica, Angel of Logic. Their ironic love is often cited in cases of 'opposites attract'.

Logica
Angel of Logic, Logica is the parallel to Sensus. Logica has no sense of emotion; Her every word is spoken with a precise logic behind it. If Sensus is a storm, Logica is oblivion; Her only mind set is one of extreme logic. She advises Nocturne in a position favoring the most logical, if soulless, approach. Like Sensus, most Karnasaurs seek guidance and aid from a more specific and less extreme subdomain of logic, and thus pray to her children more often than to her. Her titles include the Unchanging, Flatvoiced One, and the Queen of Reason. Her consort is Sensus, Angel of Emotion, and he is the father of her children.

Vita
Angel of Life, Vita is responsible for all of life's many processes. Birth, respiration, self-preservation, hydration, and all other things which are associated with the domain of life are hers to command. She advizes Nocturne in a manner that typically always seems positive, often presenting her case cheerfully, even borderline flirtatiously or sensually. This stems from her long lost desire to be consort to the Angel of the Night, and so she often stirs a rivalry with the Angel of the Moon, Luna, about her behavior with Nocturne. Nocturne rejects all advances fervently, and often must snap at Vita when she becomes excessive. Her titles include Mother of All That Breathes, Lifebringer, and Consort of Death. Her consort is Mortalitates, who she loves enough to keep as her consort, but not enough to make her forget her desire for Nocturne.

Mortalitates
Angel of Death, Mortalitates is lord of death, the afterlife, and rebirth. He is one of the few Seraphic Councillors prayed to often, as he lacks the capacity to produce children of his own, and thus is the only Angel in the entire pantheon to have power over death. He is called upon to safely guide souls to the afterlife, and to stave off death until it is an absolute necessity. His titles include Father of Mourning, Deathbringer, and Consort to Life. His consort is Vita, who he loves with a deep passion. She has the capacity to give birth to his 'children', but only if they are of the domain of life. Her desire for Nocturne over him is often cause for despair on his part. He is considered one of Nocturne's closer friends in the pantheon, due to the connection in Sauran culture between the night, death, and the afterlife.
