Derivation of Name

---

Kamael is a variant spelling of "Khamael" ("He who sees G-d")--the name of the archangel of Gevurah, the Sephiroth of Vengence in the Kabbalah. Although the Lineage II: The Chaotic Throne update shares his name, Kam predates this usage by several years. The name Xevious does, however, refer to the vertically scrolling shooter by Namco (manufactured and distributed in the USA by Atari)--such references being common with Second Life surnames among early adopters.
