In the sunlit Meadows of Ambrosia, on the edge of the Viridian Forest, stands the Château Valeureux, the most beautiful castle in all Heaven. With its iridescent white walls and sweeping buttresses, its structure gives a sense of both elegance and strength. From its cone-topped towers fly pennants of Azure, a unicorn rampant Argent.

The throne of Valeureux is held by Raphael, one of the Kings of Heaven, an Archangel of passing great worship, mercy, and justice. His wings are of gold, his aura pearlescent. His weapon is the halberd Alicorn. The unnamed Unicorn of Raphael’s arms has not been seen since the Dawn War, the great conflict at the beginning of Creation, where it fought fiercely against the Powers of the Dark. The Legend of Valeureux states that when the Unicorn steps once more upon the Meadows of Ambrosia, then the Eschaton will be at hand.

Raphael is known throughout the Worlds as the Angel with the Hundred Knights. This name alludes to the hundred shining paladins of his court. These knights errant are tasked to range throughout the Worlds of the Multiverse, seeking quests and adventure, battling the forces of the Dark wherever they may be found and protecting the innocent. And when they return to the Court of Raphael, they make great fellowship, jousting on the Meadows of Ambrosia and exchanging passing wonderful tales of courage and honour.
