Weaknesses: None Notable

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Applied Kabbalah: Caelius can take a step skew to 3 dimensions and enter Yetzirah, a realm of lower-level concepts and archetypes containing the things that everything in the material world is a metaphor for. Caelius can then manipulate things in this reality for a wide variety of effects, although he has only performed two of these canonically.

• Korban: By taking Moloch, god of child sacrifices, and following that meaning to the word sacrifice, Korban, Caelius could offer his life as a sacrifice, ensuring he'd die sacrificing his life to save his loved ones and kill his enemy.
• Silent Fire: Cometspawn can shoot silent fire from their fingers, a magical rapid decomposition of reality created through accessing Yetzirah.
