"To starve with a belly bursting full,
To brandish thine sword upon thy self,
To let the vice of fear crush us whole,
This is the dominion of Af

His power holds no equal in the hearts of man
Lo and fear him, for he is our destroyer
But blame him not, lest you be his ally
For his bloody hands are not his but are our own."

Discourse on Af - The angel of anger


Second time around I felt like I understood what this character was all about.

"Af" in hebrew is indeed used (even today) as another word for "anger" (the common word is "ka'as"). love the idea. i just wonder; the name is actually an angel's name from somewhere, or was it your idea?

ps: "Af" means "nose" too... ^^

I was going by an online resource I have. One of the things I found out was that almost all the angel names translated directly from Hebrew. That's kinda funny it translates into "nose" too.

you should read the old Bible once.. you'll see some very interesting things there... for example, when it says that god is angry, he reacts with "haron-af"=with anger. "haron" is another way to say anger/wrath as well.
