Ludociel is one of the most powerful members of the goddess race, leader of the four Archangels, and of Stigma. He was gifted the grace of Flash by the Supreme Deity and he uses his incredible speed to dash his foes to ruin. Ludociel has a polite and kind demeanor but has a single-minded focus on achieving the goals of Stigma at all costs. He cares greatly for his family and deceased friends that he lost during the Great War, but it does bring more of his negative traits to bear when engaging his enemies. He is normally seen leading and directing the forces of Stigma but has no problem leading from the front when it comes to waging war against the Ten Commandments and the demon clan in general. Though currently inhabiting the body of a Princess Margaret of Lioness, he still wields the blinding speed and power of a lightning bolt.

Class Cleric 1 (War Domain)/Warlock 5(The Celestial)
The three things that I wanted to achieve in this build are:
- Lighting Fast Strikes.
- Blazing Speed.
- Lead from the Front.
Background
For Background, I chose Nobel for Ludociel. He gains the Skill Proficiencies of History, Persuasion, the Language of Infernal, and the Background Feature of Position of Privilege. This feature allows him to be treated with the high praise and respect that he deserves.
Race
For the race, I chose Protector Aasimar for him. With this race, he gains Darkvision, Celestial Resistance, Healing Hands, Light Bearer, and Radiant Soul. Radiant Soul is where Sariel will be able to manifest his wings for extended levels of flight along with extra radiant damage with either a melee attack or spell.
Class
Ludociel’s class breakdown is a combination of two classes, Cleric 1 (War Domain)/Warlock 5(The Celestial) It is with these classes that he gains multiple class features related to becoming the embodiment of lighting’s devastating power and blinding speed. He gains numerous spells and class features that grant him multiple attacks, hard-hitting radiant spells, teleportation like speed, defensive powers, and strong healing abilities. This combination of classes is the best attempt to consolidate his abilities and talents at this level.
Cleric 1 is the starting class for Ludociel. This gives him the skills of Medicine and Insight, Spellcasting, War Priest, and Bonus Proficiencies in martial weapons and heavy armor. War Priest is where he gains the ability to gain multiple attacks on the attack action.
Warlock 1 gives him the class features of Pact Magic, Bonus Cantrips, and Healing Light. Healing Light allows him to heal additional wounds with a dice pool equal to 1 + his warlock level.
Warlock 2 is where he gets Eldritch Invocations. I chose Repelling and Agonizing Blast.
Warlock 3 is the level at which Ludociel gains the ability of Pact Boon. The pact boon for him will be Pact of the Blade.
Warlock 4 is the level that grants him a feat. The feat I went with was Fey Touched (Charisma). This increases his Charisma, he gains the Misty Step and Heroism spells. This will mimic his near flash-like teleportation to move quickly while gifting his allies the Breath of Bless ability.
Warlock 5 is the last level for this build with an extra Eldritch Invocation and access to third-level spells like Daylight and Thunder Step.
With full use of Ludociel’s powers he can perform the following techniques via spells and abilities:
Ark- Guiding Bolt, Sacred Flame, Word of Radiance
Invigorate- Lesser Restoration
Sanctuary- Shield of Faith
Gold Shining- Shatter + Radiant Soul
Ruby Shine- Daylight, Light
Lightning Spree- Eldritch Blast + Radiant Soul
Sparking Drive- Flaming Sphere + Radiant Soul
Healing- Healing Hands, Cure Wounds, Healing Light
Flight- Radiant Soul
Breath of Bless- Heroism
Grace of Flash- Misty Step, Thunderstep, Eldritch Smite, Expeditious Retreat
This combination of feats, stats, and spells makes this DND build of Ludociel a rending flash of lightning’s power in Six levels or Less.
