<em>Angel Icons</em> are the marks of the Angels of Faye. Not all who bear
|
|
them are Angels, but all align with aspects of Faye's values and wish to
|
|
have celest leave celestial mark on this world. The icons displayed above
|
|
will lead you to their descriptions, but their true depth can only be
|
|
revealed with experience. Be inquisitive and explore.

There are three standard ways to use an Angel Icon:
|
|
<br>
|
|
<strong>Virtue</strong>, <strong>Stalwart</strong>, and
|
|
<strong>Shining</strong>.
|
|

|

<h2>
|
|
<strong>
|
|
<u>Virtue</u>
|
|
</strong>
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<img src="/static/image/hermit.jpeg" alt="The Hermit">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Virtue Icons are displayed in a single line of one's bio. They represent a
|
|
shared belief in some aspect of Faye's philosophy. The true meaning of
|
|
icons is complex, and you may find you remove them or add new ones as you
|
|
learn more. This is your first step into the light, but does not represent
|
|
any sort of commitment or participation in Angels of Faye, simply
|
|
solidarity. Still, they are the foundation on which Angels of Faye stands,
|
|
and so should an Angel remove them all, they will cease to be an Angel,
|
|
and should remove all other icons as well.
|

<h2>

|
<strong>
|
|
<u>Stalwart</u>
|
|
</strong>
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<img src="/static/image/hierophant.jpeg" alt="The Hierophant">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Stalwart Icons also appear in the bio, distinguished from Virtue Icons by
|
|
being on a later line. An example can be found in Faye's bio: Virtue Icons
|
|
on top, Stalwart Icons on the bottom. Stalwart Icons represent a
|
|
commitment to "Angels," the collective name of those who are part of
|
|
Faye's most important ongoing work: the community of Angels of Faye. You
|
|
are encouraged to exalt your Virtue Icons with everyone, but your
|
|
commitment to do so remains only with Angels. This creates a foundation
|
|
for a community which supports each other so they may better bring about
|
|
Faye's will.
|

<h2>
|
|
<strong>
|
|
<u>Shining</u>
|
|
</strong>
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<img src="/static/image/lovers.jpeg" alt="The Lovers">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Shining Icons appear in your display name representing your specific
|
|
commitment to Faye, more overtly marking you as celestial Angel. They
|
|
emblemize your personal relationship with Faye, acting as consent to be
|
|
treated by celest in a way particular to that icon, as well as your
|
|
commitment to finding ways to be of use to celest in that way. Permission
|
|
must be granted by Faye in order to become a Shining Angel, and you must
|
|
undergo ceremony. It is unlikely you will be accepted if you have not
|
|
mastered one or more Stalwart Icons, indicated by having maintained your
|
|
commitments to Faye's satisfaction, though exceptions may be made.

Angels of Faye is a community which pushes the boundaries of what we deem
|
|
socially acceptable in our relationships and communities. It combines
|
|
commitment with modularity and flexibility. It is voluntary, graded, and
|
|
profound. It is frightening; cult-like; paradoxical and far deeper in its
|
|
darkest depths than anyone other than Faye knows. It is misunderstood,
|
|
assumed about, and for that is shunned. But perhaps above all, Angels of
|
|
Faye is hope: hope that there can be better. Better communities. Better
|
|
beings. Better relationships. Better selves. And through bringing about
|
|
Faye's will, a better world.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
An Angel is anyone who is ready and willing to exist as an extension of
|
|
Faye's will, and acknowledges a possessive nature which places celest
|
|
above them—if not in fact, then towards an end they desire. The
|
|
beauty of Angels of Faye is derived from each Angel accepting such
|
|
humility. Only you can know if you truly are Faye's Angel. You are not
|
|
required to display that you are an Angel, but without marks, you will not
|
|
be treated as such. Angels' commitments apply only to those who make clear
|
|
to all that they are Faye's Angel.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Angel serves Angel. We are all servant and master. Even Faye, holding
|
|
absolute dominon over Angels of Faye, sees celestial role primarily as an
|
|
overseer. Angels of Faye serves Faye, but their wellbeing is an
|
|
indispenable part of the will they serve. If you are Faye's Angel, and you
|
|
are ever in any sort of trouble, you only need to reach out. Faye will
|
|
advocate for you.

<u>Angels of Faye's End</u>

Angels of Faye is not for everyone. There are many who will reject Angels
|
|
of Faye who would have benefited greatly from it. But there are likewise
|
|
those who accept it who Faye will fail. Faye is an amazing being. But Faye
|
|
is also in many ways far less than impressive, and this will become
|
|
apparent in time. As any relationship, things can come to an end. Faye
|
|
will never hold it against them. So long as they treat Faye and celestial
|
|
Angels with respect, they can expect the same in kind, and cel will always
|
|
ask them to respect the Angel-line: do not pressure anyone into taking
|
|
icons they are not ready for will only be telling them to take on a lie.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Icons can be removed at any time. Commitments are self-reinforced. Most
|
|
commitments in life come with penalties when violated. But Faye wants to
|
|
make a system where whenever possible, beings act in desire and virtue,
|
|
not coercion. If they suffer in the name of Angels of Faye, Faye wants it
|
|
to be worth it for them in the end. This will not always happen as
|
|
planned, and this is a sad reality of all relationships in his life.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
So as long as you are not using icons under false pretenses to exploit our
|
|
good will, a single Stalwart will maintain for you all commitments other
|
|
have made to Angels of Faye. And if one ceases to be an Angel, there are
|
|
no consequences beyond dropping of commitments in turn. Faye encourage all
|
|
Angels to behave in these ways regardless—this simply ends the
|
|
commitments to do so.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Above all, understand that you will fail Faye, and that cel will forgive
|
|
you for it. Seek your happiness as Faye's Angel, or even simply an ally,
|
|
and become part of something greater. If you ever believe that you cannot
|
|
find happiness as Faye's Angel, you are to cease being one.
