User blog comment:ImperiexSeed/The oldest being, archangel or leviathan?/@comment-173.198.86.111-20120315101050

I would like to make one counter argument to the archangels over Leviathan theory. Death did say that he, as the grim reaper, found them to be entertaining but that God was worried they'd "chomp the whole petri dish." In other words God saw the Leviathans as such a threat to the universe that he had no choice but to lock them away. Some might make the same argument for Lucifer but he was only locked away because he turned Lilith into the first demon. It was an act so vile against god's creation that he had to punish Lucifer accordingly to it. We also have to keep in mind that the four archangels together might be able to take on the Leviathans, but as it stands Raphael and Gabriel are dead, leaving Michael and Lucifer to try and battle dozens if not potentially hundreds of these things. Finally we don't know if the battles would be fought between vessels, or if it would be done on a more cosmic scale. If castiel in his true form is around the size of the chrysller building, then who knows what the Leviathan's true form might be like. As to their powers they honestly might have more abilities, but DIck Roman has specifically ordered the beings to keep a low profile, so their plans can be initiated to full impact. Anyways that's just my two cents on the matter.
