Elijah

Elijah.

"This is all my fault. I let my emotions get in the way and because of that i'm a disgrace to my father and my siblings, a woman is dead and now my son is in danger"

- Elijah to Michael

Elijah is a fallen angel of heaven, who is the biological father of Nephilim Tim Sullivan. Previously one of God's most trusted and loyal Angels, Elijah fell in love with a Human called Mary which resulted in creating the first ever Nephilim. As mating with humans is against heaven's laws and death being the punishment, Elijah was forced to rebel and flee for 20 years.

Personality[]

Elijah's main personality trait is his ability to love. Ever since his creation, he has loved his fellow brethren angels unconditionally, as he pointed out to Michael. Before rebelling heaven, he was known to be extremely a loyal, honorable and highly respected angel

He is the only angel in history to fall in love, when he met and fell in love with Mary, a human woman whom he gave up his angelic duty in order to spend the rest of his life with her. His love for his son Tim outweighs his love for anything, as when showed in the book when he basically risked his own life to protect his son. This further showed when he placed a undetectable spell on Tim, allowing even angels the inability to find his son until it was broken by witches. He also futher risked his life for Tim's own by going head to head with Michael which nearly resulted in his death.

Living on Earth for 20 years has made Elijah cultured, especially in Music. As he said to Tim, Elijah is a massive fan of Rock Band The Police, when he played songs "Everything She Does Is Magic" and "Walking The Moon" in his car they drove. He also makes pop culture references relating to Star Wars and Harry Potter.
