WHO ARE THESE ANGELS?!

This bugs me the more I think about it. Because they have distinct silhouettes, markings, and halos. They also all have six wings, and it’s not the first time we see them.

I know I’m not the first to make this connection, and others have made whole AUs around these mystery angels. But I am personally DYING to know who they are in the actual context of the show because you don’t create distinct (if currently minimalist) character designs and use them more than once unless you plan for a payoff in the future.

The most I can gather is that they are the “Elders of Heaven” Charlie mentions in the beginning of episode 1, but what does that mean? Are they Michael, Gabriel, and other Biblical angels like so many think they are? And whether they are or aren’t, why haven’t we seen them in the show beyond these silhouettes? Where are they? Why is Sera the only one running the show, and why can’t she call on them? (She seemed really frustrated she could only talk to Abel and St. Peter when trying to figure out what to do about Hell.)

And why does Lucifer look so afraid when he thinks of them?

The obvious answer is that they took part in banishing him from Heaven and he was “crushed by them,” but I want more details! What exactly did they do? And I don’t think it’s a coincidence there are seven of them if you include Lucifer- seven is the magic number in this show. Seven sins, seven years, etc.

Since next season is the Morningstar season according to Vivzie and we are apparently in for some Lucifer angst, I’m hoping for some flashbacks to before Lucifer’s Fall. I want to know who these angels are!

GIVE ME ANSWERS, VIVZIE. 😤
