HELLO WELCOME OH MY GOD
(^the pAper chAse to make up for this unintelligible mess! godspeed...) WHO EVEN IS RAZIEL?!??!!? WHAT EVEN IS RAZIEL?!?!? oh my God stop yelling. hes obviously an angel. sometimes an arcangel. but who even wants to be an arcangel? arcangels are some of the lowest ranked angels in the hierarchy. Nobody wants that. who wants to be a divine messenger when you can be a seraphim. But who is he? whos raziel? obviously an angel. WHats an angel doing ON earth?? there are many angels on earth. you may just not be looking hard enough! in raziels time there are many angels on earth and its sort of a long story. Maybe ill write that down somewhere else one day soon. But all you need to know is that raziel is an angel and he is on earth, and angels on earth are a very normal thing. The angels on earth arent quite how we would think of them. They have no divine powers (at least in the physical living relm. but that goes for normal humans too) and are very biologically similar to humans. But who cares about science now, were talking about angels. Science has very little to do with this. Raziel is an angel, we understand this. Raziel has no connection to the jweish angel raziel by the way, just a coincidence. just thought that be important. Anyway. Im typing alot of nothing currently. Lets talk about raziel. Raised in private cathloic school along with his older (by 6 years) brother. Until he got suspended freshman year for violence. WHat he did is nOT important. just that even at a young (teen)age, raziel was a violent boy. He has to (at the dismay of his parents) go to public highschool. The first 2 years (the finish of his freshman year and entire sophmore year) he was just a strange religois shut in, not speaking to anyone) UNTil in junior year.. he met a boy named tiger. Tiger is important! first real friend for raziel! this is a good thing, horay!
This is where things get CONFUSING! this is where raziels "soul" (byfar much more complicated than a humans) split into two. What!? how is this possible?! the greed and envy of raziel (jelousy mostly of tiger... sinful! voilent! while positive aspects still exist like regret and a very powerful will to keep going...) and genuine love and purity and sometimes,,, shudders... eroticism (the more angelic aspects, sexual maybe but in a purley positive way. connection between souls? maybe! while negative aspects still exist in this soul like extreme anti-sociality and SEXUAL GUILT!!) could not coexist so they split into diffrent versions of raziel, two souls, two universes! The sin in raziel (thats just what ill call it) split into a version of him where he bacame violent his whole life and died a lonely death, drawing tiger and everyone else out of his life. Usually i will draw this version of him as taller, usually in a button up and tie. The pure part of raziel pursued religous studies (not saying anything about the world... religion alone will not make u happy! raziel is a little closeted self hating homosexual in both universes and nothing but religion is to blame for this!) with tiger. this is the version of him i draw ONLY in a priest outfit. Any raziel drawing (that is not obviosly above the age of 17) thats not wearing a cassock (black robe) is the sinful one. The raziel depicted to the right is the pure one! ahah! here is a helpful diagram...
ignore the one in the middle.. this is a purley hypothetical raziel that never was religous- pure chaos ! NOT SAYING a thing about society. The way raziel functions is not humanly at all. Religion was his savior and downfall at the same time. ANYWAY... Raziels souls both grow into full souls of their own. The 2 raziels become mostly seprate, never reconnecting in the afterlife or whatever. The souls never re-get-put-back-togther. I actually dont care much about the lore, if this is hard just think of this as 2 aus. Raziel evil and raziel kind. Okay? BAD ENDING AND GOOD ENDING but its somebodys life... i just want to put more drawings of him here now. I am very obsessed with raziel.
oh.. obviously the sinful one! but hes wearing the priest robe? stolen valor! fake! poser! FALSE PROPHET! so evil...
oh my... why is he real? and the evil one still!? this is just simply a sin for owning! i shall burn him in a bonfire and clense my home after... this will give me bad energy,,,
put him down! this is actyally the raziel before the soul splitting. goodness! he seems evil! well obviously this never happend for tiger is not one inch tall! so everrything is okay.
if i ever do draw priest good pure raziel with diffrent clothing than the priest robe that is for my eyes only ! pure raziel (who i shall just refer to raziel now. because you know its the pure one i only say good things about) is so very dear to me. I drempt of him once and it was a very much out of body experience, If you do not know what i llook like it is very obviously not known but tiger is somewhat of a self insert.. how embarassinng,,
a treat for staying so long... a ref sheet! how amazing. notice the diffrence of expressions in the two. this are is a bit old i must admit but is still very amazing. look at him! goodness... i guess this is where i have to leave off? thank you for reading this mess... Godbless and Godspeed and Goodbye for now...
