So some fun and important updates to Ophir’s character have been implemented after some rigorous research, most in particular to the development of their angelic past which has up till now largely gone unexplored and undeveloped sans the general events of their story; so I am going to list in short what new elements have been implemented for their character;
Their station was that of one among seven archangels that oversaw the earth, albeit still classified as cherubim given their four wings and the four faces of their purest angelic design. They were a teacher of the moon, stars, celestial bodies and the zodiac, as well as being an exalted divine warrior--guarding not only Eden, but being the punisher of other angels that were driven astray or rebelled against God’s command, as well as governing the sins and injustices of the human world. It is said in legend that as they wept for the sinners, their tears, if they ever were to touch one such sinner, could absolve them of their misdeeds.
They also rule over the realm of dreams, both the giving and the interpreting of them, often giving divine wisdom or instruction within the form of which.
They decide, determine and control the fixed position of the stars, as well as communes with them regularly, with power over the primordial elements including that of the aether. Known as the angel of the waning moon and the night sky.
They were among the leaders of the 200 angels dispatched to earth to instruct and to watch over humanity, alongside their counterpart of Shamsiel, an angel of the sun.
And naturally, as one could interpret for themselves, their great, deep love of humanity came not merely from their inherited nature as a cherubim, but the fact they were a constant governor and overseer of the human world, let alone one of the angels given the divine purpose to come down to earth and live there among the people in it--they, like many others in their position, fell all the more deeply in love with humanity and the freedom of life on earth, and began feeling compelled to teach their holy wisdoms which were considered by God to be forbidden to mankind.
