Warding sigils are a type of spell work used to hide an individual, or protect a location or building from angels or demons. Sigils appear to range from Hermetic, astrological, alchemical, Honorian / Theban, Kabbalistic and [[Enochian]]. If warding sigils are altered in any way, no matter how slight, they are rendered useless.
