The Sarakiel are a people of the Fallen Angels, not a separate bloodline — the light-faction of the pre-fall celestial host, defined by their devotion to purity and factional heritage, not by a biological departure from the Fallen.
The Sarakiel maintain their belief in absolute purity even in exile, viewing their banishment as a temporary setback in their righteous war. Their pale skin and luminous eyes still mark them as beings of light, though the radiance is dimmed by their fall. These angels create small enclaves of "perfection" wherever they settle, excluding all they deem impure—which is essentially everyone except other Sarakiel.
Their communities are austere and rigid, following thousands of rules designed to maintain their fading connection to the light. They practice constant rituals of purification, believing that sufficient devotion might one day restore their wings and allow them to return to their celestial towers. The Sarakiel view all other races with barely concealed disgust, seeing mortals as the mud they've been forced to walk upon.
