Dark Angel

Sinister celestial being

Dark Angel typically refers to a supernatural being—an angel associated with death, vengeance, or the sinister rather than the benevolent.

The phrase evokes fallen angels or agents of divine punishment: He appeared like a dark angel, beautiful but terrifying.

In popular culture, it names various films, TV series, and fictional characters, usually featuring morally ambiguous or dangerous protagonists with otherworldly qualities.
