personality.

all about me

Zerachiel is a gentle soul. He's caring and gentle. There's just something about him that is rather calming. He is a rather calm person himself. He's ever the optimist but also a realist. He likes to look on the bright side of things, but is more than aware of the reality of the situation.

Unlike most angels, Zera isn't expressionless. Having been living amongst humans for a while, he has learned all the emotions that humans express, not that he uses them. A neutral expression is what he holds most often. But he does smile. They're gentle and warm, welcoming. It would do him no good to be discouraging, as an angel who is expected to lead souls to judgement. It would unsettle the souls if he were to be uncaring and cold.

There are rare times when Zerachiel will let his mask drop and he will weep for humanity, for his brothers, for his sisters, for everyone. He will apologise sincerely to not feel guilty. He often chews his tongue to keep any other emotions at bay. They make him feel weird. Feel inadequate, like his feeling of emotion might possible lead his father to believe he is weak.

He's strong and determined. He doesn't really want to be known for failure. His belief in his father is extremely strong. Some might call him a fool for blindly following someone he has not met, but belief is all he has. However, he is used to being looked at oddly. He has hope for humanity while many have long since lost faith in them or resent them.

history.

this is the story of my life

Zera could tell you the day that God created the creatures of Earth. He could tell you all about Adam and Eve. He could recall how excited he was to be graced with the ability to meet them. He can also recall the pain when they lost favor and how much he wanted to protest punishment. It had been his duty to lead them from Paradise, a job that shaped him into the angel he is today. He never wanted to see anyone suffer as much as he watched Adam and Eve.

Over the thousands of years, Zerachiel came and went from Earth. His main goal on earth was merely to lead souls to judgement after they were reaped. So many times he took up vessels of the holy and willing to rescue those children susceptible to sin or to try to lead many back onto the right path. He never remained on Earth for long.

It was a prayer that reached him that first brought Zerachiel to his vessel Graham Bardsley. Graham was struggling, a child whom Zerachiel had been watching for some time. He had lived a hard life, bouncing from foster home to foster home, to struggle just to survive once he aged out of the system. Zera did what he could to bring encouragement to him. Forever his loyal friend, Graham managed to overcome every hurdle and turned Zerachiel and wanted to repay him. Zera saw no need to test his loyalty, as Graham had followed his word for a while to help him achieve success.

One might say that Graham began to spend more time on Earth than in Heaven, only returning to escort souls. But it felt like a sudden thing when he learned of the seals being broken. The Apocalypse was something Zerachiel never wanted to see. Something he feared in humanity's place. He didn't want the seals to be broken, feared what would come once they were. But when God left Heaven and the Archangels took command, Zera fell right back into line. Out of respect, and fear, he quietly gave up his cause.

He watched Earth from Heaven, watched his vessel continue on in life in the small town of Beacon Hills. It was a remote town that Graham grew up in. The place Zera told him would be the best place to hide away at. He promised to return, as he secretly considered Graham his one and only true friend when he wasn't sure which of his brothers and sisters he could trust.

Heaven falling into disarray was never something Zera thought he would ever see. He himself wasn't even sure what to do, what he was supposed to do. But then Castiel appeared, preaching the idea of Free Will. It honestly seemed too good to be true. However, Raphael was against it, causing Zerachiel to miss Earth. To miss simply doing his job.

Part of him wanted to believe in Cas, in the fact they might actually be able to have Free Will. That they should have likes and dislikes. To actually do something they want. But the war left Zera injured. He would have continued to fight, but word hit his ears that Castiel made a deal with Crowley. The name sent a shiver down his spine and fear into the pit of his stomach. He feared that Cas' deal would backfire and Heaven would be taken over.

He fled back to Earth, back to Beacon Hills, back to Graham. He settled into a sleep within Graham to heal himself. He let his vessel go about his life as a Kindergarten teacher. Life has calmed down a bit since Zerachiel returned to Earth, determined to just go back to how things used to be. He fulfilled the role that Graham held in life.

But the things that were happening in Beacon Hills couldn't escape his watch. Nervous is how he feels on the inside, but he feigns ignorance on the outside. Hoping it is nothing big, Zerachiel worries that something very big, very bad is going to happen to the small town.
