They serve the [[Father]] directly, unconnected to the [[Khan Maykr]], thus possessing free will. They share many biological aspects with the Maykrs, including the their overall shape, being subject to Transfiguration , and many of their abilities. All the seraphim Seraphim wear cybernetic armor similiar similar to that of the Maykrs. None ; none have been shown without itin their natural form. Their masks have a single glowing eye(either blue or red), human-like lips , and golden brain-like patterns on their heads. Seraphim cober cover their armor with dark red cloaks. Seraphim are especially known for their prideful nature. All the Seraphim seem to possess great intelligence, as they are said to "create machines that hold the immense power of the universe".
After undergoing Transfiguration==History==According to a passage from the ''Eri oa Hiim'', they look like smaller versions also known as the ''Book of the Seraphs'' or ''The Lamentations of the Khan MaykrSeraphs'', having purple skin and secondary limbs which can deploy energy wings. A the Seraphim has a yellow eyeball in were the place of first creations molded from the life sphere carried void by the Khan. The head features the same single eye, with dark shallow depressions where a Khan's eyes Father in what would bebecome [[Urdak]].All the Seraphim seem to possess great intellegenceUnlike lesser Maykrs, as they were said are bound to "create machines that hold the immense power of the universe"his will alone. They seem are said to have a strict neutrality code, rarely directly taking part in anything and serving only the Father. The can resurrect a being through the use of this being's life energy conservated helped him in a special life sphere. The Seraphim inhabited the Luminarium as their main residence. If someone enters the Luminarium, the Seraphim do all his or her biddingworks, because the Father ordered them to do so to prevent a Seraphim takeover have assisted in Urdak. In the ending of [[The Ancient Godshis research, Part One]], a pair and once flew on wings throughout all of Seraphim resurrect the [[Nameless One]] by the Slayer's creation to carry out his will.
After an event of an unspecified nature known as the Battle of Isonkast, the Father stripped the Seraphim of their wings. In atonement for whatever wrongs they had done, the Seraphim then built the Luminarium in Urdak upon its oldest grounds to become a dwelling place for the Father and a housing for many marvels, including machines with the ability to control and harness the essence of life itself. Out of desire to prevent the Seraphim from seeking any further power, the Father commanded that they serve any who reach the Luminarium. As a result, they seem to obey a strict code of neutrality which serves all equally and without favor, and rarely do they ever directly take part in any external events. They can resurrect any being through the use of that being's life energy conserved in a special [[life sphere]]. If any life sphere is brought to the Luminarium, the Seraphim are duty-bound to resurrect the individual to whom it belongs. However, it is said that few beings can actually survive the process. In the ending of ''[[The Ancient Gods, Part One]]'', a pair of Seraphim resurrect the [[Nameless One]] by the [[Doom Slayer|Slayer]]'s will. ==Transfiguration==[[File:Samur Transfigured.jpg|thumb|right|300px|A transfigured Seraph.]]After undergoing the Transfiguration, a Seraph appears like a smaller version of the Khan Maykr, but having purple skin. Like the Khan, they possess secondary limbs in this form which can deploy energy-based wings. A transfigured Seraph has a yellow eyeball in the place of the life sphere carried by the Khan. The head features the same single eye as ordinary Seraphim have, with dark shallow depressions where a Khan's eyes would be. ==Known individuals==[[File:Samur Closeup.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Samur Maykr.]] {{Main|Samur Maykr}}[[Samur Maykr]], also known in singular as the Seraphim, was said to be the Seraphim Seraph most trusted by the Father. He was entrusted with the duty of carrying the Father's life sphere to the Ingmore's Sanctum in Immora, and was later commanded to act as a guide to humanity in the form of [[Samuel Hayden]].
