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... Caress the lifeless sculptures Die!!!” -Dissection, “Where Dead Angels Lie”. 1996.

Useful Info

Profane servitors are angels of the Shining One who have been corrupted by Yredelemnul. Profane servitors are resistant to most damage types, including pure holy damage, and have vampiric/draining attacks. Their umbra lowers your to-hit slightly. Profane servitors are rare, occasionally encountered while wandering the Abyss, Pandemonium, and certain Crypt:3 layouts.

Tips & Tricks

• Demons, undead, and worshippers of Dithmenos or Yredelemnul are immune to the umbra's penalties. This includes monsters that worship Yredelemnul. Any halo effects will cancel out the umbra.
• Although profane servitors are resistant to holy attacks (e.g. Cleansing Flame), they are still vulnerable to weapons of holy wrath.
• Keep in mind that they aren't resistant to fire and acid damage.
