4* CannotTellALie: Taking into consideration how good-hearted angels usually, they typically don't lie about about their situation or most of what's around them. Although the rule has been broken once or twice.
5* ExactWords: Obviously, angels can't lie but they are expert at wording things a certain way.
6* {{Masquerade}}: Angels pose as humans when they're on assignment, and are otherwise invisible to the naked eye. Unfortunately, dark angels and Satan himself have the same abilities, and they can fool good angels.
7* NoNameGiven: In 99% of cases, the angels don't have last names. This can cause some issues, like when they're dialing Information to find someone as in "Indigo Angel" from Season 2 (the person on the phone wants Andrew's last name and uh, he doesn't have one). This also caused trouble for Rafael when he had an assignment as a soldier, as soldiers are generally addressed by last names.
8* OurAngelsAreDifferent: None of the angels in the show have wings, and they are just about indistinguishable from humans until they drop the {{Masquerade}}. (At one point Tess was even put on time-out for having a hateful attitude towards Satan, and Monica got one for lying.)
9* WalkingTheEarth: The angels travel from place to place on assignment.

16* TheGrimReaper: He's the previous Angel of Death in the spotlight for the show's inaugural run, but then becomes a rarely-appearing character after his actor began to suffer a mental health battle and Andrew was introduced to show that there are multiple angels who share the responsibility of guiding the departed to eternity or protecting those whose lives become imperiled.

64* HeroWithBadPublicity: He is framed for a deadly explosion at a school by the grief-stricken townspeople desperate for someone to blame.

65* LastEpisodeNewCharacter: He makes his sole appearance on the show in the GrandFinale.
