HEAVEN

"'At the Gates of Empyrean.' - HEAVEN's motto"HEAVEN is the mysterious corporation at the heart of Neo Haven and the Spiral Isles as a whole; the CEO of the company, known by nothing else but the Boss, serves as the President of the Isles. While it might be strange for a corporation to rule over an entire nation, HEAVEN functions more like a governing body instead of a business.

Founding
The exact origins of HEAVEN are left unknown, but many have speculated that the company wasn't always the governing linchpin that holds the Spiral Isles together. At one point, it may have been a simple PMC that attempted to hold off the massive influx of monsters that emerged following the Divide. The soldiers and mercenaries employed by the company specialized in dealing with paranormal threats, of which certainly became more prevalent in the years that followed. From there, HEAVEN grew as protection was more necessary. The Spiral Isles were founded as a safe haven against all that had become wrong with the world.

In the year 2532, HEAVEN officially established itself as the ruling body of the Spiral Isles. Neo Haven was founded as the capital, built from nothing into a mighty walled city that defied the nature of the current world. Since then, HEAVEN has ruled the Spiral Isles with a tight fist; the Angels were established from the company's initial fighting force, representing an elite regiment of no-nonsense soldiers, ready to maintain order and personally deal with any and every threat to the Isles.

Overview
HEAVEN serves as the governing body of the Spiral Isles, with a rigid military hierarchy with executive positions above it. The Angels form the majority of the armed forces, with Archangels serving as riot police and medium ordinance troopers. Serving a role somewhere between foot soldier and elite trooper, the Saints are top class Angels who act as field commanders on the battlefield. The Seraphs are stealth troopers, sent in for covert missions and assassinations. The Metatron Unit is the heavy, only deployed when maximum destruction is necessary. Above that, an executive board oversees financial, security and foreign affairs. Lastly, above it all, the Boss acts as reigning head of HEAVEN, serving both as president and CEO of the company.

Angels
Angels serve as the main bulk of HEAVEN's army; while they are the most common, by no means are they the weakest. Highly trained and highly lethal, the Angels are expert marksmen and trackers with training in many different types of weaponry. As it was for the company's initial conception, the Angels' primary area of expertise revolves around dealing with paranormal threats, but normal ones are dispatched just as easily. Angels are known by their black outfits, heavily armored torsos and heads with an added face plate lit up with blue optics. Certain units of the Angels have been known to employ spirit hounds; contracted souls that appear as spectral, horned quadrupeds, capable of functioning similarly to dogs but without the physical limitations.

Archangels
Archangels serve as the elite forces within the ranks of HEAVEN's armed guard; Archangels can fill in as military police, riot officers and bomb experts. Archangels are specific in their versatility, able to handle more dangerous situations that the common Angel unit might not be able to deal with. Every Archangel is outfitted with a lightweight but durable armor frame, providing substantial protection without sacrificing mobility. Though they come armed with a variety of weaponry, Archangels geared towards a demolitionist mindset come equipped with a HE-OD (High Explosive Ordinance Distribution) Launcher.

Saints
Bred from birth to serve, the Saints are the elite of HEAVEN's armed forces. With extensive and brutal training, Saints act as commanders and leaders on the battlefield. They are tactically minded, manipulating the sway of battle in their favor and leading their squads to victory more often than not. Every Saint is geared up in a durable, lightweight material that provides protection against a surprising variety of damage. While not as heavily armed as Archangels or the Metatron Unit, Saints have a wider base arsenal and a wealth of knowledge on how to use it.

Seraphs
Seraphs are the ghosts that haunt the battlefield; as a unit geared towards stealth, Seraphs operate unseen and either eliminate targets from afar or execute them up close. As covert operatives, they typically are armed with silenced weapons such as sniper rifles or sub-machine guns, and more close range weaponry like knives. Seraphs also come equipped with optical camouflage, able to bend light around them to facilitate invisibility. While not typically sent out on monster hunting, Seraphs have been known to undertake espionage and assassination missions against potential human threats to the Spiral Isles.

Metatron
The Metatron Unit is the juggernauts of HEAVEN's armed forces; able to take and deal heavy damage, they represent the unrelenting wall that stemmed the tide of the Divide. Metatron aren't deployed until the situation is truly dire, or HEAVEN is faced with a colossal threat within territories of their control. Each Metatron Unit is plated in a thick metal alloy, with motor-actuated joints to facilitate movement. Weaponry ranges from high-penetrating railguns, gas-powered machine guns, shoulder-mounted missile launchers and other devastating weaponry. The Metatron Unit adheres to only one major rule: "shoot it until it stops moving".
