Utterly non-notable fictional "creature". It is not even an actual monster, so to speak, just a template that can be applied to any animal in D&D. There is no indication of notability at all on this concept, as evidenced by the fact that only reference being used is a single, primary source and that any additional reliable sources that discuss this concept in any depth don't exist.

Keep or merge to List of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition monsters. BOZ (talk) 12:09, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't think we will find any non-primary sources discussing this particular phenomenon except in passing. A retrospective on D&D 3rd edition might mention templating monsters since it was a major part of the game system, but I doubt they would dedicate space to discussing the ability to turn any creature into an angelic version of itself except, as I just did, in passing. I don't think this is a valid redirect term both because I think the proposed redirect target should be deleted and because celestial creature might also point at Uma Thurman.

Delete extremely vague term that can also apply to real life mythology, especially the angels and seraphs. Article has no notability. Maybe bundle this with Celestial (Dungeons & Dragons) though?_{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 00:51, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
