Zauriel is a fictional character in the DC Universe.
Zauriel was an angel of the Eagle Host in Heaven. He was assigned by The Presence (i.e. God) as a guardian angel. He protected the souls of various people over the centuries including Cleopatra, Mona Lisa, and Joan of Arc. Eventually, he fell in love with one of his charges. To be with her he gave up his immortality (though still having wings and certain powers like the ability to part oceans, along with a flaming sword and sonic scream) and appeared on Earth. He aided Kendra Saunders, Hawkgirl, in discovering the true nature of her identity as a descendant of the bride of Khufu, an egyptian prince along with the first Hawkman.
He first appeared in JLA #6. Since then, he joined the Justice League as their spiritual advisor.
