Angels

Angels (天使, Tenshi?) are the absolute shield that protects the Vampires; its form, shape, and even its function, all reflect on the Vampire itself. Not all Vampires are gifted with one, however, only those who were dealt a hard card in life. Angels can take on many forms, from giant monsters to deadly swords and even instruments, all of which seem to display some special offensive power. They also have either an alternative form or a variety of abilities for different situations a Vampire may face.

The angels may possess a healing factor, as Ria and Akira have been in battles leaving their Angels with critical damage. However, their Angels did not show the battle damage the next time they were summoned.
