Affinity are third sphere angel which are on the ninth rank of the hierarchy of Laguna, the chain of command of the Angels of Paradiso. They act as the basic soldiers of Paradiso and takes the form of a humanoid creature with a bird-like head and legs as well as the stereotypical "angel wings" in their back, a halo symbolising their rank and various type of weapons used in battle. Affinity is one of the few Angels visible to normal humans but only if those have enough faith in Jubileus, The Creator and Paradiso in general.

Hierarchy of Laguna[]
"Servants of Heaven that populate the lowest of the angelic hierarchy, a Third Sphere rung known simply as Angels. Humans with deep faith often feel these angels closest to their hearts. Descending from the heavens upon their pure white wings, it is believed that the glimmering halo atop an Affinity's head lights the path for those who have lost their way. The religious articles they equip are all tools used to further their conviction to protect the righteous and can become powerful weapons used to strike down those with sullied hearts."
