flies out of an enemy's reach.
Innate Spellcasting. The angel's innate spellcasting ability is
Charisma (spell save DC 18, + 10 to hit with spell attacks). The
angel can innately cast the following spells, requiring no mate-
rial components:
3/ day each: compelled duel, guiding bolt (as a 5th-level spell)
1/day each: daylight, fireball (as a 6th-level spell)
Magic Resistance. The angel has advantage on saving throws
against spells and other magical effects.
Relentless (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). If the angel
takes 21 damage or less that would reduce it to 0 hit points, it
is reduced to 1 hit point instead.

target. Hit: 10 (1d8 + 6) slashing damage, or 11 (ldlO + 6)

Firemane Nevena

Chastised by Aurelia after leading a successful assault
against a group of guildless rebels, Nevena has distahced
herself from the Boros Legion's leadership and .inde-
pendently pursues her own vision of justice and punish-
ment. Nevena's willful independence is a source of tension
among the firemanes as well as in the upper echelons of
the legion's leadership. How much should a firemane be
free to pursue her own agenda, given that her agenda is
righteous and just? For now, Aurelia has decided to let
Nevena have an unprecedented degree of freedom, but
if she betrays any hint of corruption, she will quickly be
brought back under dose scrutiny.

fIREMANE ANGEL
Firemane angels are holy champions and paragons of
war who specialize in single combat. They are powerful
warriors who seek out the m ightiest foes in any conflict,
trusting lesser soldiers to handle lesser opponents.
Like many other Boros angels, firemanes typically
have red hair. In the heat of battle, a firemane's hair can
ignite, transforming into a mane of flames cascading
over its shoulders and down its back.

0RZHOV ANGELS

Few angels find anything appealing in the corruption
and decadence embodied by the Orzhov Syndicate,
since such a society is fundamentally antithetical to
their natures, but disillusionment can seduce even im-
mortal beings. When cynicism takes root in an angel's
heart, when questions undermine devotion to the cause
of justice, when strength becomes a tool to lord over the
weak, the Orzhov Syndicate is there to welcome the an-
gel with open arms, offering status, respect, and power.
Orzhov angels might claim positions as executioners,
commanders, or power brokers, but more often they
carve out their own place in the guild, standing apart
from the otherwise rigid hierarchy of the Orzhov.
