}}'''Ridwan''' (リドワン, ''Ridowan'') is an angel.

==Appearance==
Ridwan is a young female angel with blonde hair and purple eyes. She wears blue marine glasses and a white and blue dress with black leggings.

==Personality==
Ridwan holds a deep resentment towards [[humans]] for their mistreatment of the gods, partly blaming them for the many lives that have been lost in the past ten years. She is sad that humans choose to purge them instead of thanking them for sacrificing themselves during times of crisis. Her resentment is not so strong however, that she would refuse to assist Jeanne in reuniting with her son El.

==Plot==
===[[Shingeki no Bahamut Virgin Soul]]===
Ridwan, along with many lesser angels, guards a forest in the [[Land of the gods|land of the gods]]. When she discovers [[Nina Drango]] and [[Jeanne d'Arc]] there, she attacks them and demands to know who they are. When Jeanne informs them that she is in search of her son [[El／Mugaro|El]], Ridwan agrees to escort them, but first she takes them to a structure that is filled with beautiful lights.

She sadly informs the pair that each light represents a god who died in battle. Ridwan explains that many angels were lost during the fight against [[Bahamut]] ten years ago, and that the battle was won due to the sacrifice of the gods, yet humans have decided to purge the world of gods and angels instead of thanking them.

Ridwan tearfully adds that more gods have died recently, leaving the land void of life. Jeanne apologizes profusely, while Nina is unable to comprehend the cruel actions of [[Charioce XVII]], the man responsible for trying to get rid of the gods.

After Jeanne and Nina are given permission to see El, Ridwan personally escorts Nina to El's room. She is a little disgruntled when Nina refers to her simply as "angel" and tells Nina her name. Later on, [[Bacchus]] tells the guards outside that El wants to go for a walk. Ridwan enters the room to grant permission but wonders aloud where Nina has gone, only to learn that Nina is wearing El's clothes and El himself had fled earlier.

Ridwan reports El's escape to [[Gabriel]]. The gods try to apprehend Bacchus, [[Hamsa]], Nina and El but the four make it through the portal and down to the surface using [[Bacchus's carriage]]. Ridwan and [[Sofiel]] report this fact to Gabriel. Ridwan becomes slightly offended when Jeanne decides to retrieve her son herself. When Jeanne refuses to listen to Gabriel and leaves Gabriel's chambers with Sofiel following her, Ridwan is left to witness Gabriel's anger.

Ridwan and another angel note that, shortly after this event, Gabriel has locked herself in her chambers and refuses to see anyone. This is because Sofiel had gone to the surface world with Jeanne despite intending to stop the saint. Jeanne and Sofiel do return eventually, and Ridwan hurriedly reports the news to Gabriel. However, Jeanne informs Gabriel that her son has been [[Murder of El/Mugaro|murdered]] and she demands to go to war with Charioce XVII with the gods by her side.

Sofiel blesses Jeanne with her powers while Gabriel and Ridwan watch.

When [[Bahamut]] returns, Ridwan assists her fellow gods and the demons in forming a shield 
around [[Anatae]]. Once Bahamut is defeated, Ridwan chooses to remain on the surface and takes on a human form in order to spend time with Sofiel, [[Rita]], [[Bacchus]] and [[Hamsa]].

==Powers & Abilities==
Ridwan wields a spear that is quite deadly. Like her fellow gods, Ridwan is able to form a shield to protect [[Anatae]]. She can also assume human form. 

==Weaknesses==
*'''[[Dragons]]''' - Ridwan is certainly weaker than [[Bahamut]], but also physically weaker than dragon folks like Nina, who was able to grab hold of Ridwan's spear and prevent Ridwan from retrieving it.

==In Lore==
