I have This bean, who is a personification of the literal apocalypse, does he count? ^^`
I love seeing OCs based on angels and biblical figures, and I have a bunch of them, myself, so I wanted to see other people's interpretations of these figures and see how they're different from my own! I figured maybe other people would be curious, as well, so here I am making a thread. If you have OCs based on (or inspired by, or even just named after) angels, demons, Biblical figures, or any other such persons from Christian mythology, post them below and I'll add them to the list!
P.S. if you can't find your little blorbo anymore, check down near the bottom. I decided to group all the ones that only had one into just three tabs for angels, demons, and everyone else because you guys are really goin ham on the obscure figures (i love it) and I wanted to make the list a bit less of a tedium to scroll down ^^; I'll move them back to their own specific tab once they have someone else based on the same person to compare to, since that's what this thread is about anyway :)

Oh my, love those kind of characters so I'm gonna keep an eye on this thread !
I myself have quite a few OCs heavily referencing religious lore (Lucifer, Michael, Uriel, Sariel, Ramiel, Gabriel and Raphael) or demonology (Fleurety and Beelzebub) but they're on authorized only for now.
Tbh I'm always quite scared of getting cancelled for them even though I know I'm far from the first one to get inspired by religion-
They’re loosely based off of the creature of the same name sporadically mentioned within the Bible, but the majority of the inspiration draws from the original Canaanite depiction (and other things)!
Oxyhocin oooh they're cool!
While my angels and their society are very loosely based off ancient Greeks, Romans and some bits of biblical angelology, here we have Ezekhiel (with h slapped in the middle because hehe vibes /lh), who was named after... Ezekiel. Just the name, other than that he has nothing in common with the bible guy
I also have a bunch of other angels + archangels but none of them are named after famous biblical figures, wheezE
v AYY thank you!
RayEnigma woah this guy's design fuckin SLAPS
I really like your Ezekiel and Gabriel (especially the former I think is super cool and unique)
I only have two* off the top of my head, my vent character and my demon Faust for a story that also has at least Greek and Japanese mythology/folklore in it (Faust has a cool proper demon form too but I just don't have any art of it up yet qwq) *(I technically have a handful of other characters with "biblical names" but that's because they're Jewish lol)
ThornShadow ooh those are really cool! I love the art on the dog one!
Idrk if this counts as an oc since I don't even have a name for her but I drew a biblically accurate Cherubim
She's not so much "Lucifer" as a reincarnation of Lucifer, after he died a natural death after being de-winged and cast down to Warth following his uprising, so I don't know if she counts. She shares some personality traits with the original, likely vanity and pride, but no memories. The roleplay she was a part of had a number of biblical characters, but most of them belonged to the roleplays' game-master. Nonetheless, the roleplay had a bunch of characters who were actually the reincarnations of people who'd died during Lucifers' uprising and featured Metatron as the main villain, so I think that myself and the game-master got heavily inspired by loose interpretations of christian mythology, as well as shows such as "Constantine" and "Supernatural". :D
Also, if you wanted to just browse biblical OC's then I remembered an old forum thread where everyone was showing off their Lucifers. Seven pages of Lucifers. :D
I do have God and lucifer characters in my story- but I haven't drawn them digitally and posted them on here yet lol- but I think this character counts kind of??- Basically, in my story, there's 3 "spirit worlds". These worlds consist of heaven, hell, and the common territory. people become spirits after they die, and they can turn into an angel, a demon, a restless spirit, or a common spirit, spirit type is determined by their actions from while they were living. God is the ruler of heaven, and gods design is based on the biblically accurate angel concept also god is gender neutral lol- Aphea rules over the common territory, which is where restless and common spirits primarily reside. in the story's lore, restless spirits were created because millions of years ago because god banished several angels to hell because they accidently did something extremely bad in their lifetime (like- accidental murder-) Aphea, who was like a secondary ruler for heaven at the time, didn't agree with god's decision and decided to step down from her power in heaven and move to the common territory, to take care of the banished angels who were now kind of like- corrupted ig?? ever since then she's stayed in the common territory to rule and keep things in balance. She may not be inspired by any gods in mythology, but she's still a god technically-
If I'm able to, I may come back some time to show God and Lucifer-
GDHHDGJH YES my main headworld is all about these types of characters.
I have Michael, Gabriel, Uriel, Raphael, Cain and Abel, Mary (mother of Jesus) and a dude named after Lazarus, but not actually Lazarus, like, from the bible.
My boyfriend and I co-own the world and he also has the Angel of Death and Judas.
Probably many more to come as well,, I may be back. >:]
I have this guy! Who is mostly just named after Samael, but everything else is my original lore/worldbuilding and stuff. There is some loose connection with the whole snake-theme, but that is pretty much it.
I also have a Lucifer, Gabriel and Raphael, but I haven't drawn those guys in forever and they really need new art before I post them on TH...
