Joshua

Joshua is a relatively young guardian angel. At approximately 2800 years old he has watched over the soul that now belongs to

Evangeline Elanor Elkins and previously an unnamed housewife, and a male Aztec warrior. Joshua has had feelings for the soul from the beginning and in the form of Evangeline his youth and impulsiveness comes through when he decides to "fall" (in the short "Fall") and become a mortal human being, certain in the face of The Archangel Gabriel's assurances that he and Evangeline are soul-linked. As an angel, Joshua converses with spiritual beings, including Evangeline's daemon, Damon.

As a human, Joshua is scarred with a large angel tattoo as a reminder of what he has given up. Taking a liking to it, Joshua went on to get more tattoos on his arms and right leg. He continues to be infatuated with his girlfriend Evangeline, even as she appears to fall ou

t of love with him after meeting her true soul-mate, The Archangel Gabriel. As a human, Joshua continues to be able to talk to Damon, but now it is Damon who controls when Joshua can see him (Damon is unable to allow anyone else on the Physical Plane to see him)

Upon learning to whom Evangeline is soul-linked, Joshua becomes enraged and swears revenge upon Gabriel.

SPOILER ALERT

After learning from Luc that he mar regain his immortality by taking Gabriel, he challenges Gabr

iel to a fight to the death. When Gabriel accepts, the two inadvertently cause Evangeline's death, but she is able to give birth to the human incarnation of Damon. Joshua is both the father and guardian angel to the boy, and knows that even though he cannot see her, Evangeline's soul, which is now the daemon is paired with the boy. He even becomes friends with Gabriel who also accidentally "falls" preventing him from seeing Evangeline in the spirit world.

 END SPOILER 

Joshua is portrayed by Kieth Reeves in "Fall," "Fall 2" and "Canon." Although writer/ director Brandon Scott Jensen had planned on using make-up effects for Joshua's angel tattoo, he was originally inspired to use the idea after seeing Reeve's actual tattoo, so Jensen decided to audition Reeves and he won the part, forgoing the necessity for a fake angel tattoo.
