[1][2] Described as the eternal opposite of the Darkness, as well as essentially being the mother of the Witchblade, the Angelus is a powerful opponent that has challenged both Jackie Estacado and Sara Pezzini on several occasions.

The Angelus played a prominent role in the First Born limited series and had a one-shot by Ian Edginton released in December 2007 as part of the Top Cow Pilot Season event.

Unlike her nemesis, the Angelus completely subjugates the personality of its vessel; rendering her fully possessed but also retaining her memories as well as those of all previous hosts.

Like the Darkness, the Angelus can form weapons such as flaming swords or spears as well as armor from her native element which can easily withstand gunfire.

One such otherworldly creature – a mortal concubine created purely for satisfying the Angelus's sexual cravings – possessed a seemingly hypnotic capacity for seduction; sufficient to lure her bodyguards into freely entering her cell so she could bite out their throats and escape.

Likewise, her Warriors are possessed of limited teleportation range as well as potent levels of strength and durability – although not to the same degree as their mistress, as their bodies can be dissolved with chemicals and are still vulnerable to Darklings and Darkness weapons.

She soon begins recreating whole scenarios, making Jackie relive past moments with Jenny - such as a dance at a diner or a time when they visited a now-abandoned amusement park.

After one final tender moment with Jenny, she is suddenly possessed by the entity - having been under its influence since her death in the first game and been used to lure Jackie into freeing her from Hell.
