Seth-Iavow is the War Leader of the Seraphim warriors who invaded humanity's dimension. The latter is especially important because a Seraphim warrior can easily slip into a killing frenzy and inadvertently alter a carefully constructed plan. Seraphim warriors are managed by specially trained War Leaders that manages a battle's overall strategy and then use The Way to keep Seraphim warriors calm and focused during said battle. In effect, they are 'damning' themselves for all eternity. In addition, Seraphim religious beliefs hold that only one species can ascend and attain perfection via The Way therefore, any Seraphim that severs its connection to The Way is agreeing to forever relinquish any chance of eternal bliss. Since Seraphim society is built around 'feeling' each other empathetically, Seraphim warriors are no longer able to associate with the rest of Seraphim society. But becoming a warrior exacts a much heavier price than the simple loss of emotion. Once a Seraphim loses its connection to The Way, they transform into emotionless killing machines. The results of this action are immediate and extreme.

In order to wage war, the Seraphim utilize warriors that have agreed to permanently sever their connection to The Way. A legion of Seraphim units can be seen emerging through the rift in the intro sequence, jumpstarting the events of the game's plot.īecause of their close connection to The Way, and the extreme empathic feelings that arise from that connection, the Seraphim are physically incapable of harming another sentient being. When Black Sun was deployed, it created a rift between the Seraphim's realm and humanity's. Their race was long thought to be extinct, but in reality, the colony on Seraphim II was comprised of exiles who believed they could follow The Way without sacrificing the ability to fight. It is the species that the Aeon found on Seraphim II, and who taught them the delicate intricacies of The Way. The Seraphim are an alien species introduced in Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.
