Angel of Tossing a Spanner into the Works: Patriel, if she studies (from the inside, as it were) a particular social dynamic for five minutes, will recognize what or who the weakest link is, and why. She also can extend this ability to complicated machinery: one half hour of personal, direct observation will locate the best place (if any) to shut the whole thing down in one fell swoop.

Rites:

: Draw attention to a potential disaster by causing a weaker version of same (without killing anybody who doesn't deserve it) (+2 Essence).

Oaths:

"Never suffer an evil to live, if it is my choice."

"Never surrender or allow myself to be captured by the forces of Lucifer."

"Never kill a human, unless I've legitimately tried another way to resolve the matter first."

"Follow the Eleventh Commandment and keep it Wholly."

Well, Sabotage isn't precisely the right Word. Patriel doesn't want to break things permanently: she just wants to illustrate how they can be broken, in a way that will get people to make blessed sure that there's adequate safeguards later on. The difference is subtle yet important.

Patriel very nearly fledged as a Mercurian (she changed her mind at the last minute, when it came to her that she'd need all the protection against Servitors of Factions that she could get), and in many ways she understands that Choir better than most of her fellow Virtues. She works well with Mercurians, in fact: their subtlety suits her right down to the ground. For their part, the Friends of Man find it refreshing to deal with a Malakite that won't immediately reach for her sword in the presence of evildoers. She's done some of her best work with an Intercessionist helping her work the crowd.

What Patriel is good at, by both inclination and training, is at selective disruption. Need to shut down a nuclear reactor for a day? Want to tie a bureaucracy up in knots for a week? Is it absolutely necessary that Missile Silo #172-35 isn't in any condition to fire off the ICBMs? Call Patriel - if your objective is for conditions to improve in the target situation or organization afterwards. She isn't interested in breaking or blowing up stuff for it's own sake. The Malakite really enjoys making sure that her 'adjustments' cause real, positive change, though.

Personality? Imagine a walking, sentient juggernaut of focussed surrealism with a low sense of humor and you'll be close enough. Patriel isn't cruel (that's for Servitors of Dark Humor) or needlessly disruptive (unlike those yahoos that serve Factions), but she cares for preserving the dignity of the undeserving as she does for letting Servitors of Theft live. No joke is too low, no scenario too bizarre, if it will helps her properly perform her mission. It's a good thing that she has to stay continuously on the go, all things considered.

What, you don't know the Eleventh Commandment? Tsk, tsk.

"Don't get caught," of course.
