Tall winged creatures renowned for their cold beauty.

Varis's Children

Pale, like snow or ice
Undertones ranging from blue-purple-red.

8' or so

Large feathery wings, usually matching the undertone in coloration.

Ashy sclera and clear irises that may/not match the undertone, but usually match the other.

Not much

Pale to dark blues, whites, and lilacs.

Shirts that wrap around the torso, and somewhat loose pants that close around the waist and ankles.

Flight. Powerful wings can carry them from island to island with little trouble.

Talons. Nice sharp talons and opposable thumbs provide easy weaponry as well as preening tools.

Cold affinity. Their affinity for the cold allows them to live in areas that are too cold for most humans to live in without aid.

Wings. When not in flight, they can be cumbersome (especially when in areas not designed to accommodate them).

Fragile bones. They look like glass and break like glass. Recovery is quick, but bones must be set correctly immediately or risk complications.

Heat-sensitivity. Having been born of ice via Varis's affinity for the cold, they cannot stand too much heat and thus live in the higher islands, rarely descending to warmer climates.

Farsightedness. Reading anything printed is a pain, and most angels who bother with it have prescription reading lenses equipped in flight goggles.
