He has made numerous excursions during times of war, favoring to fight for the side that he felt was "right".

Cath has adopted a few human vices -thanks to the human aspect of his origins- to include smoking cigarettes, drinking and yes, he has a love of women.
Goals: Enlightenment/Ascension to Heaven

Fears: Cath fears few things; as you don't live as long he has while harboring fears. He fears never finding his ascension, running out of things to study and never knowing this emotion that seems to elude him known as love

Mannerisms: Cath is very outspoken and likes to enjoy himself. He treats most with a differential respect, unless he feels they can give him something that he might need or want.
Aptitudes: Cath is very skilled at the use of short sword type weapons, staffed weapons (bladed and blunt) as well as using modern firearms.
Powers and Skills: Cath utilizes his divine origins and the powers bestowed upon him by his Angelic mother to manipulate his surroundings. These manipulations are subtle, mostly.
Light Bending: Cath is able to bend light to hide things from view, most of the time he hides his wings and the fact that he has pure white eyes. In times of need he can seem to simply disappear for a short time. He capable of focusing light into a sort of beam type weapon that, depending on the intensity, can blind or burn.
Realm Blink: This is when Cath leaves our mortal realm to return to Purgatory. Using this drains much of his energy, but he can return to Purgatory and then back rapidly to, in effect, teleport to a new location on the battlefield. This effect is not instant, and depending on the distance can take up to 15 seconds.
Steeled Will: Through his Divine origins, Cath is able to use his wings as a shield by manipulating the density of the feathers in order to deflect attacks. Normally the feathers density is determined by color; white feathers are soft and pliable while the black ones are razor sharp and bend less. The black feathers are unable to cut the white ones, as they a part of the same being.
Flight: Cath, being endowed with wings, is also gifted with flight.
