Protective Aura (Su): Against attacks made or effects created by evil creatures, this ability provides a +4 deflection bonus to AC and a +4 resistance bonus on saving throws to anyone within 20 feet of the angel. Otherwise, it functions as a magic circle against evil effect and a lesser globe of invulnerability, both with a radius of 20 feet (caster level equals angel’s HD). This aura can be dispelled, but the angel can create it again as a free action on its next turn. (The defensive benefits from the circle are not included in an angel’s statistics block.)

Spell-like Abilities: At will – continual flame, detect evil, dispel evil (DC 21), dispel magic, greater teleport (self plus 50 pounds only), holy aura (DC 24), holy smite (DC 20), planeshift (DC 23), remove curse (DC 19), remove disease (DC 19), remove fear (DC 17);

7/day – cure light wounds (DC 17), see invisibility;

1/day – heal (DC 22).

Caster level 12th.

Voice of Heaven (Su): Metatron is the Voice of Heaven, and even his aspect embodies this power, though to a lesser extent. As a standard action, the aspect of Metatron can use his Voice of Heaven to achieve one of the following:

Holy Forbidding: Denouncing evil, the aspect of Metatron can duplicate the effects of Holy word (caster level 12th, save DC 24) with Holy Forbidding, harming and/or banishing evil creatures in his presence. Holy Forbidding has no limitations on its use per day.

Righteous Fury: The aspect of Metatron’s anger is expressed as a shout of wrath. Righteous Fury deals 12d8 points of damage (half sonic, half divine) in a 30 foot line; a successful Fortitude save (DC 24) reduces the damage by half. Righteous fury has no limitations on its use per day.

Sacred Repudiation: With a cry of exultation, the aspect of Metatron can convert vile damage to normal damage in one ally by means of Sacred Repudiation. Sacred Repudiation costs one daily use of bardic music each time it is used.

Alternative Feats and Class Abilities: If you do not have access to Complete Champion, Complete Adventurer or Complete Scoundrel, you should replace the Complete Champion sourced alternate bardic music abilities with the standard ones presented in the PHB. Replace Chant of Fortitude with Diehard (even though the aspect technically doesn’t qualify for it). Replace Lingering Song with Weapon Focus (longsword).
Replace Sound of Silence with Negotiator.
