Alto Angelo

Alto Angelos (アルト アンジェロス, Aruto Anjerosu) (Italian for "High Angels" (ヒ アンジェルス, Hi Anjerusu) or "Archangels" (アーカンジェルス, Aakanjerusu)) are angelic-loking knights with demonic powers and angelic appearance through the Ascension Ceremony and they are the most powerful of the Angelos (アンジェロス, Anjerosu) which is demonstrated by being obediently followed by Bianco Angelos at their command. They are enemies in a hack and slash video game, Devil May Cry 4. These false angels are actually the transformed Holy Knights (Knights of the Order), religious soldiers and elite enforcers of the Order of the Sword, a now-defunct militant faith whose sole purpose is to eradicate all that is evil in the name of Sparda. This was the results of the Order's research into demonic power (which it never happened in real life Earth).

Like all the demon species that wee introduced to real life Earth, they are also actually peaceful and gentle, unlike how Devil May Cry characters once thought, because they are now free from the Order of the Sword, and can now worship other religions. They are omnivores, feeding mainly on the same food as humans. They come in many different shapes and sizes depending on a subspecies. They are not effected by religious items, unlike in mythologies. They aren't evil and only feed on live animals in case of food shortages.

They are a member species of the League of Hostile Species because they had a goal to aid the Order of the Sword in cleansing and ruling the Earth, which they got through of it, like the rest of the hostile species.
