This blasphemous being used to be an angel of the Shining One. Now it stands as unliving proof that not even the holiest of beings are beyond Yredelemnul's grasp. A spell was cast and the sky turned red The angel's heart froze to ice In the gloomy sky black clouds were gathering The silence was broken by cries A spell was cast and the sky turned red The angel's heart froze to ice In the gloomy sky — The silence where dead angels lie Touch the snow...

Useful Info

Profane servitors are angels corrupted by Yredelemnul. They have a number of potent abilities including resistances to most damage types (including holy) and vampiric/draining attacks. Their most powerful ability is their Umbra, a shadow aura which conceals their allies and makes it harder for those inside to hit. Demons, undead, and Yredelemnul worshipers are immune to its negative effects. Profane servitors are mercifully rare, only occasionally encountered while wandering the Abyss, Pandemonium, or certain Ziggurat floors.

Tips & Tricks

• You may occasionally acquire your own profane servitor ally as a tier one god gift from Yredelemnul.
• If you worship the Shining One, your own holy aura will negate a profane servitor's Umbra, resulting in a zone of normal lighting.
• Although profane servitors are resistant to holy attacks like Cleansing Flame, they are vulnerable to weapons of holy wrath.
