I did find out more about Israfel. Poe did not make him up. He is in the Koran. He is (like Poe described) supposed to be an incredible musician among angels, and may possibly be the angel that blows the last trumpet. Legand somewhere also states that he was one of the two angels who took Lot out of the city of Sodom, which is significant, because before I knew about him being not just my invention, my angel of this name had an extreme dislike for men wanting to rape angels, which is what the men of Sodom wanted to do. As Luke's guardian angel, he stands in direct opposition to one of the demons who kept an eye on the old Luke and punished him when he didn't do well (by Satan's standards, of course). This demon's name is Sodom (and I invented him, too). He was in charge of the city of Sodom before it was destroyed, and now is at work in the world trying to make every city of the world like Sodom was. And I might say he's doing a horribly good job of it!
