Angelus Rei

Angelus Rei is a deity of the ancient, polytheistic Sauhpeesian faith. He is the god of travel, adventures, treasures (particularly jewels), the passing of time and astrology (alongside the god Kheper Kamen).

His adventures and legends are primarily found in the Coalescence of the Broken World and the occult folklore novel Tales of Starry Underworld (星空冥界物語 Hoshizora Meikai Monogatari).

Name
Angelus Rei seems to be derived from a Latin prayer, and the second being the Japanese word for 'spirit'.

In the Starry Underworld Story, he has the Japanese name of Kazuhiya Rei (和冷 霊). In the novel he also has the title of Star Collecting Dark Sword (星集暗剣 Seishū Anken).

He has another western name : Angelos Nero. And it seems that it is from this title that the legendary artisan family Angelos has taken their title.

Appearance
Angelus Rei is long-haired, with silky black hair. He is a handsome young Asian man in a long dark coat, with the magical sheathe Yomiho (黄泉宝 Hades Treasure) slung from his belt, typically depicted as being empty. This is because it has the power to instantly deposit whatever blade is sheathed into a secret vault said to be hidden within Yomi. He can also instantly draw whatever blade he has deposited there by merely gesturing his intent.

Angelus Rei has a partner, Medusa-chan. She is said to be the reincarnation of the original Medusa. She is a pretty young girl with snakes for hair. She had an enchantment that hid this fact from mortal eyes, but still maintained the strange green and brown coloration. Her eyes still maintained the curse of the original gorgon, so she had to wear a blindfold to control this power.

In his legends and stories, he set out to collect the 12 Zodiac Jewels, who were actually the representatives of the 12 heavenly star courts, in order to combat Zrvan the Time Unbound. As such Angelus Rei is usually portrayed with jewels.

He can also be depicted with any of his legendary weapons, such as : Anhikiritou (暗火切刀 Dark Flame Cutting Sword), Brüllend Höllenmeister (Bellowing Hell Master), Ulysses Esquire, and Artimisia Absinthe ~Flower of Anguish~.
