Spoiler:

Depicted as tall, fiery angels with many wings and heads in the Catholic religion and scripture, this is far from the truth. Seraphims are child-like angels that share Michael's bright aura, causing those who have sensitive eyes trouble looking at them directly. Adding on to this, the small angels can amplify this aura, raising it's light to blinding levels. These elites no longer have feathery wings like many of their brothers and sisters, which were torn off by the Light Bringer himself in favor of some more sturdy replacements: cybernetic enhancements. These wings still function just as any other pair would and allow them to take flight, but that's where the similarities end. The mechanical wings of the Protector's elite's emit a stabilized hot plasma that can be used as deadly weapons. This plasma can slice through many metals, even some of demonic origin, making the angel that much more fearsome.

Seraphims are usually dressed in nothing but a thin sheet of materialized light, proving that they also have some level of photokinesis, which is only confirmed by the fact that they share his ability to produce kinetic barriers, dismissing the need for armor. They also are curiously mostly female, and are not entirely limited to being of child-like origin as some adult forms have been witnessed, though the majority of the race falls into those categories. The angels are also known to wield a large amount of plasma weaponry, from sabers to pistols or even assault rifles.

Abilities: Their advanced weaponry forms their primary abilities, which comes in a large range of equipment, but is usually wielded in the form of plasma axes, a two handed weapon for most of the child-like angels. However, they are capiable of minor photokinesis, able to bend and amplify light to near-blinding levels and create solid photokinetic shields strong enough to stop standard bullets and most elemental attacks.

Miscellaneous Notes: While getting one's wings ripped off seems a bit over the top, becoming a Seraphim is actually a high honor for an angel.
