*'''Diangelion''' (διαγγέλιον) is a Greek term of unknown meaning and origin that can be found in Greek biblical texts (need to confirm source material), with no proper English translation to be found other than simply "message". It is similar in etymology to the term εὐαγγέλιον (evangelion: gospel, good news). Due to the demonic nature of the class, it is likely an apocope of διαβολος (diabolos: devil, slanderer) and the root of the above word, -αγγέλιον, or "Diabolic Messenger".
*'''Diangelion''' (διαγγέλιον) is a Greek term that can be found in biblical texts (for example, the greek versions of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauline_epistles Pauline Epistles] found [https://books.google.be/books?id=Sh5UAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA8&lpg=PA8&dq=%CE%B4%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%B3%CE%B3%CE%AD%CE%BB%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%BD&source=bl&ots=5qXsF08fqE&sig=ACfU3U27RaJ_YB8nqoPW0PzToHSUi-rNeQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiG2_TZ-8nrAhWMyaQKHfZSBDgQ6AEwEHoECAEQAQ#v=onepage&q=%CE%B4%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%B3%CE%B3%CE%AD%CE%BB%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%BD&f=false here]), that is often simply translated as "message". It is similar in etymology to the term εὐαγγέλιον (evangelion: gospel, good news). The word is composed of the prefix δι- and the root αγγέλιον (message), which can be translated in various ways depending on the way the prefix is interpreted. "Two Messengers", from δύο- (for "two"), "Different/Dissonant Messengers", from δῐᾰ́- (for "through, in different ways") or possibly even "Diabolic Messenger", as an apocope with διάβολος ("diabolic, devil").
*While both [[Catastrophe]] and [[Innocent]] build on the concept of two characters fighting as one in their own unique ways, '''Diangelion''' puts a dark twist on the idea, with '''Lu''' practically assimilating '''Ciel''' for her own powers.

**'''Ciel''' is little more than an extension of '''Lu''''s power at this point, with his voice lines all being very apologetic or subdued while Lu's are extremely grand and sadistic, especially in the Hyper Active, [[Archon Ray]], where Ciel merely grunts as Lu coerces him maniacally into destroying everything for her.
