Corrupt seraph is one of the celestials descended into the Deep. At the Breaking, when the Skybreaker tore Heaven's Gate, some celestial beings went down into the Deep that Deopa, the Deep holds within himself. They count among his creatures now, and their affinity is Umbra.
It is not recruited. A mage calls it with The Deepward Step, and the caster does not decide which of the descended celestials comes. Each of Deopa's creatures has its upkeep set on its card, and this one asks mana, not people. The Sealborn say it came down whole and was never a corpse. It borrows no life from the living, and mana alone holds the shape it kept. Once called, it cannot be dismissed. The Sealborn put it plainly: what went down into the Deep does not come back up at a mage's word.
Lumen mages who have faced it say it still has the beauty, the wings and the healing touch of a celestial like Seraph. Only its affinity has changed.
