The angelic beings are a class of NetHack monster, represented by the overall glyph A. They include:

All angelic beings ignore Elbereth and sanctuary.

Angelic beings capable of using weapons (Aleax, Angel, Archon) are created with blessed erodeproof long swords and non-cursed erodeproof large shields[1]; there is a 1/20 chance that the sword will be converted into either Demonbane or Sunsword (if these don't exist yet) and a 1/4 chance of the shield becoming a shield of reflection unless the being is an Archon (where the chances are 100%).

Encyclopedia Entry

He answered and said unto them, he that soweth the good seed

is the Son of man; the field is the world, and the good seed

are the children of the kingdom; but the weeds are the

children of the wicked one; the enemy that sowed them is the

devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers

are the angels. As therefore the weeds are gathered and

burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

[...] So shall it be at the end of the world; the angels

shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

and shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be

wailing and gnashing of teeth.

[ The Gospel According to Matthew, 13:37-42, 49-50 ]
