Devas were a minor type of Angel, appearing as humanoids of extraordinary beauty or handsomeness with two magnificent feathered wings emerging from their shoulders. Their coloration varied, with skins of golden hue, milky white, or deep ebony, and had mono-colored eyes gifted with extraordinary vision. Though typically adverse to clothing, they possessed the ability to change their shapes to appear as a mortal creature or beast, and would adopt clothing when necessary to blend in. When a deva died, all parts of their body and their possessions vanished completely, thus none were ever examined posthumously.
Like other angels, Devas shared devotion to to goodness, and acted as servants and messengers of the Upper Realms, able to communicate telepathically and detect evil and good. Due to their lesser power, they were able to travel throughout the planes, often appearing in the Material Realm, Vivid Realms, and even the Umbral Realms if tasked with righting a great wrong. They were not adverse to combat when needed, possessing the ability to attack with forceful radiance. However, like all angels, their primary skill involved healing; with a touch, devas were able to heal wounds, remove curses, and even raise the dead.
