BIOGRAPHY

Camniel is an Archangel, created during the building of the Universe and tasked to watch over God's creations on Earth. In the beginning, when Adam and Eve were ejected from the Garden of Eden for eating forbidden fruit, Camniel was sent to comfort them before they were left alone in the wilderness. He was also present to comfort Jesus before his crucifixion.

Camniel has spent a long time on Earth since then, mainly prayed to throughout human history by those seeking something. This has led to him being known as the ‘angel of lost things’, most notably those who are seeking peace, God’s love, forgiveness, understanding and strength/courage during a time of conflict.

In order to feel close to God while working on Earth, Cam opted to become a part of the human priesthood, lecturing often on the topic of love. He’s always been drawn to it, able to sense all forms of love clearly but also eager to help others find it and nurture it. Dealing with humans over thousands of years has only made this more important to him, seeing it as his ongoing mission on Earth- and so far, has been unchallenged by God.

Spending so much time among humans had an effect on him, however, and in the late eighties Cam found himself falling for a member of his congregation. Knowing that relations between angels and humans were forbidden, he did his absolute best to keep a distance, but found that it was too difficult to quell the feelings he’d developed. He became involved in a brief but deeply loving romance before a disapproving visit from his fellow Archangels put an end to it.

VERSES

Main Camniel, Archangel of Strength and Love, has been living on Earth since creation. Posing as a priest, he spreads God’s message about love as best he can- even though he hasn’t heard from God in a long time. Faithful to his mission and truly believing in the power of love, Camniel has grown to enjoy life on Earth, even though he tries to hold humans at arms length when it comes to relationships.

Good Omens A verse that covers all events, from the Garden of Eden up to the aftermath of the Apocalypse being averted. Cam is trying to find his place after the confusion by continuing his work on Earth, preaching about love and doing all he can to protect it.

Human In this verse Father Cam Devine is an ordinary human priest who left his church in Ireland after some personal drama and started life over in London. He’s in his late 30’s.

Van Helsing Another human verse, Camniel is a priest who specializes in hunting vampires and demons, reporting back to the Holy Order in the depths of the Vatican.

"Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It has been five weeks since my last confession." Usually, she went to Mass and unburdened herself every Sunday, but she'd been working a lot of late, playing someone who did not believe. Was that where she should start? "I have denied God, I have let greed get the better of me. I have stolen things. I have been prideful." She could go on, but she was sure the priest did not have all day. "I am sorry for these and all my sins." / Kate for Camniel on Sunday.

  Camniel settled in his chair, one leg propped on the other, though the confessor couldn’t see him. Ah, greed. One of the most seductive sins of all in the modern world, and one of the most heavily confessed- alongside lust, of course. 

    “When Christ's faithful strive to confess all the sins that they can remember, they undoubtedly place all of them before the divine mercy for pardon.” He replied, speaking softly back to her through the divide of the confessional. 

 The priest smiled wryly, hoping that his voice carried with it enough comfort. It was hard sometimes to feel that you were truly helping someone when you weren’t speaking face to face, but anonymity eased the process for the confessor. Now to weigh up the sins for their appropriate penance. 

 But first-

   “Y’know, five weeks is a relatively small break. Some go years, letting the time slip by, feeling as though it’s just too late- but it’s never too late and I welcome you. The things you stole...were they of great value?”
