All Goetias are fallen angels, but they're given "Lucifer's blessing". You can identify regular fallen angels by their black and broken halos

But Goetia halos are purple because they were "blessed" by Lucifer. These fallen angels aided Lucifer in the Heaven Civil war and are considered his most trusted allies. That's why Stolas casually calls Lucifer "brother" instead of "king" or "father"

So It's a funny story but originally Sera was going to be full on rings and eyes, kind of a gag on those "biblically accurate angels" memes + giving her a sexy succubus partner.

The problem however was that Sera's "biblically accurate" form, aka her wheels form, was VERY limiting and was hard to make expressive. So I decided to maybe blend the two. People ask me why I decided to make Sera bald but like, it's just because I like bald women. I think it's an attractive look.

(Below was me sort of experimenting with the approach to that design)

I would say her early relationship with Domino was the second messiest and chaotic. Most archangels are pretty obedient to high ranking angels, but Domino was very argumentative and often challenging towards God and their belief system (which Sera did NOT like lol), and it only got worse post war. Domino was also poor at regulating his emotions and would have full on outbursts and meltdowns, Sera would often kind of... Push him aside. Encourage him to speak to God about his problems instead of helping him herself. I had a few comics that I scrapped where Domino talks about how he can't wait to kill himself so Sera feels bad for yelling at him. But I decided not to do them because people might have interpreted Domino as suicidal in the past, which he wasn't.

Nowadays, Domino and Sera have a very friendly relationship but there is this sort of... unspoken tension between them (I don't like to describe certain dynamics bc some people take it literally but I do see their relationship as sort of mother/son). Domino feels guilty because he was one of the last remaining angels who lived with Sera and he did some pretty terrible things before being banished to Hell and Sera blames herself for Domino's fall and his rejection of God, not fully understanding that she could have been the most perfect angel for Domino, and he still would have fallen.

Easily Aurora, even if I hate drawing her (also to be clear she's not my favorite character)

It's a one time thing, honestly I just did those drawings because those designs were sitting in my head for years and I was going a little insane not getting it out of my system.

Speaking of which, some early concept art of Prince Nightshade, Prince Gladiolus and Princess Magnolia

Some of these were WAY earlier concepts. For example, Nightshade was going to be a lot more feminine presenting and was going to be a fashionista/inventor/business woman type, but his character felt so bloated I decided to expand it to the sisters (and some of the other sins, for example Mammon's daughter is now the "fashionista").

Nothing much for Gladiolus so I always planned for her to be the leader of the Gluttony Kingdom's army, but Princess Magnolia was originally just going to be a princess who sits by the sidelines and just has orgies and parties, before I decided to make her the ruler of the Sloth Kingdom (because canonically Belphegor was sealed away and originally Nightshade ruled over both kingdoms)

If you ever make a fanfiction, please link it to me, i'd love to read it!

The rare moments where I can draw Lili angry are always very fun for me
