Dominions
The "Dominions" (lat. dominatio, plural dominationes,
also translated from the Greek term kyriotites as "Lordships") or
"Dominations" are presented as the hierarchy of celestial beings
"Lordships" in the De Coelesti Hierarchia. The Dominions, also known as
the Hashmallim, regulate the duties of lower angels. It is only with
extreme rarity that the angelic lords make themselves physically known
to humans. They are also the angels who preside over nations.
The
Dominions are believed to look like divinely beautiful humans with a
pair of feathered wings, much like the common representation of angels,
but they may be distinguished from other groups by wielding orbs of
light fastened to the heads of their scepters or on the pommel of their
swords.
The Dominions have made a name for themselves deposing planetary governors whom they have deemed corrupt or ill suited to govern. This has earned them several enemies.
More to come. . .
