Powers are Warrior Angels created by God to stand against evil, defending the cosmos and humans. They were created to fight against those evil spirits who would attempt to wreak chaos. The chief of the Powers is said to be either Sandalphon or Paladin, both are angels of darkness. They are soldiers, dark angels, known as Dark Guardians. They are classically represented in full armor, helmed and shielded. They stand away from the throne of God, defending humanity from the darkness that exists.
They are not DownCast but are unclean after millennia of bloodshed and war and are unable to enter the Citadel. They remain in the Verge fighting the Endless War. According to St. Paul they are evil and not of the Light. That they are no better than the Shade.
