Light halo

The light halo is a powerful (and very painful) weapon used by angels in the Aeon of the Champion story series to capture, incapacitate, or destroy demons. It works via the concentration of holy magic, which is then channeled using Force of Will to bend it into a rounded structure.

Light halos require a lot of energy to use properly, but can devastate a single target, and demonics, being uniquely susceptible to holy magic, are weak against it and can rarely escape. As such, high-ranking demons that are defeated in battle can be reliably captured and transported to the High Heavens' interrogation unit for questioning.

During the Sin War, the defeated Princes of Hell were temporarily jailed in massive light halos, with the exception of Lucithel, the Lord of Hubris, who was destroyed by an excessive amount of them. Archangel Anariel also used a light halo to apprehend the Succubi Princess Lilith after she defeated her in combat, leaving Lilith screaming in pain and begging shamelessly to be released.
