I remain shocked that Mythical Motifs is much narrower than its title.
Do we have a trope for when a character has some sort of religious or spiritual motif? Not a Messianic Archetype, but a character with a lot of angel or devil theming, for example.
This might be covered by something like Biblical Motifs but it's not necessarily Angel Unaware. They're not actually an angel most of the time, but are associated with angels.
For context, this is an entry for - believe it or not - Kenny McCormick; he's not only depicted as an angel at the end of the movie, but as Mysterion he calls himself an "angel keeping watch over the city" and his sister refers to Mysterion as a "guardian angel." He is a supernatural being but not a heavenly one.
