Zadkiel inhabits the mountaintops and lower atmospheres of Heaven which he traverses with his companion Pegasus, the horse with wings of starlight. Sometimes the archangel flies mounted on his steed, other times gliding alongside on wings of bronze and copper, his sable topknot streaming in the winds of infinity.
Zadkiel is known to his followers as the Angel of Diamonds, cool, clear, and hard, and they pray to him for lucidity in all endeavours. His sky-realm reflects his nature, appearing to his angel-sight as a kaleidoscope of sparkling gem-planes and ever-shifting rainbow flecks. In the crystal facets among which he soars, Zadkiel can see all the Worlds of Creation reflected on every scale, giving him unique insights into the connections between the Microcosm and the Macrocosm, the interplay of dimensions, the small seemingly random events that may develop into cosmic quakes. His sharp mind, vigilance, and perception make him a valuable general among the Powers of the Light.
The facets of his jewel realm also serve as doorways to the Worlds. When he judges it strategically appropriate, Zadkiel and Pegasus descend to the Worlds, an extra-dimensional portal opening in a dazzling blaze of heavenly light and prismatic spray, battle-armoured and blade bared to bring the fight directly to the forces of the Dark.
