Powers and Abilities
The Angelus is a force of nature with the power of the sun flowing through her. The Angelus has been described as beautiful as the Morningstar and as ferocious as Kali. She grants her hosts superhuman strength, speed, stamina, invulnerability to all Earthly weapons or harmful creatures, healing abilities, flight, the ability to create objects and sentient beings of pure light (including a cadre of soldiers known as the Angelus Warriors), and the memories of all the previous Angelus hosts.
She can also breathe fire, melt magical armor with her touch, channel blasts of light from either her weapons or hands, teleport both herself and others, withstand the full heat of a dying sun for 13 years without harm or nourishment by sustaining herself on the "will of the Almighty" alone, and fly through outer space at a speed "besting the hands of time".
However, the Angelus' powers are limited since functioning in complete darkness quickly drains her of her powers which can also cause her host to age away and die within moments if she is of old age, and anything she creates turns to dust in the dark.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“He who is conversant with the supernal powers will not worship these inferior deities of the wind, waves, tide, and sunshine. But we would not disparage the importance of such calculations as we have described. They are truths in physics because they are true in ethics.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths—your abilities and your failings.”
—Gérard Depardieu (b. 1948)
