Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

"The Apocalypse is a job for the professionals."

- Pale Rider The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are a quartet of infamous Nephesh recorded in the Book of Revelation, tasked by the Abrahamic God with the duty of heralding the Armageddon, releasing END onto different planets and universes, including Earth.

They're consisted of the White Rider, the Red Rider, the Black Rider, and the Pale Rider, with the Pale Rider being the leader of the group.

Overview
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are one of the most prominent Biblical figures other than the devil, alongside the antichrist and the Beast themselves.

They were said to be the first beings sent by Jesus or the devil to bring death to the majority of humanity on the Last Judgment and they are described as four men riding a white, red, black and pale horses, who represent Conquest (or Pestilence), War, Famine and Death respectively.

These horsemen are:


 * White Rider, the harbinger of Conquest (or Pestilence in some sources).
 * Red Rider, the harbinger of War.
 * Black Rider, the harbinger of Famine.
 * Pale Rider, the harbinger of Death.

Summary
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are Nephesh - Half-Celestial offspring of the Celestial Prince Raphael, who represents the [Primordial Despair]. Unlike other Nephesh, their only parent is Raphael as they were directly born from his despair over the actions of humanity

Each of them were born in the earliest day of human civilization, back during the age of Adam and Eve and their descendants with their birth being closely connected with the primordial humans: The Red Rider was born when Cain first attacked Abel, the Pale Rider was born when Abel took his last breath, the Black Rider was born when Cain was marked with his infamous marking, and the White Rider was born when Adam, Eve, and their remaining children mourned for both Cain and Abel.

The moment they were born, they were summoned to the Abrahamic God and were tasked with the duty of heralding the Armageddon, releasing END onto the mortal world so that the world may be born again more beautiful, which they accepted with the greatest of honor.

Their first mission was on Earth, with them marking the end of the Edenith era. However, due to the fact several Nephilim managed to survive the Great Flood despite the Angels' direct order, their mission was deemed unsuccessful. Embarrassed, the four of them vowed to one day kill the last of the Nephilim and destroy the remnants of the Edenith civilization once and for all.

Afterward, they continue their duty, heralding the end throughout Creation, bringing forth the end to countless planets and universes, as well as the species and civilizations living within them.

At some point in history, the four of them founded the Apocalyptic Alliance, consisting of gods and mythological figures associated with the apocalypse within multiple mythologies and civilizations across the mortal world as means of minimizing the paperwork for both themselves and the Abrahamic Heavens. However, unknown to them, it quickly turned into an organization that served the purpose of decelerating their world's inevitable destruction by any means possible, regardless of the sacrifice.

According to Raphael, the Great War was supposed to kick off Earth's own Armageddon, but due to the involvement of the Three Factions, the Four Horsemen were unable to be summoned and the Earth's apocalypse was put on an indefinite hold.

White Rider
"Then I saw when the Lamb broke one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, "Come." I looked, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer."

- Revelation 6:1 - 6:2

Red Rider
"When He broke the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come." And another, a red horse, went out; and to him who sat on it, it was granted to take peace from Earth, and that men would slay one another; and a great sword was given to him."

- Revelation 6:3 - 6:4

Black Rider
"When He broke the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, "Come." I looked, and behold, a black horse; and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not damage the oil and the wine.""

- Revelation 6:5 - 6:6

Pale Rider
"When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, "Come." I looked, and behold, an ashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth."

- Revelation 6:7 - 6:8

Unofficial Horsemen
Despite there being only four Horsemen to ever be recorded in the Book of Revelation, there existed "Lesser Horsemen" who were created by the original Horsemen to act as their envoys. Because of this, none of the Lesser Horsemen are true Nephesh and each belonged to a different species.

- Shemhazai to Namaah

"Should the first four of the Seven Seals of Revelation be broken, from the horizon shall come four beings riding on a green, red, black, and pale horse. They shall bring with them many plagues, conflict, hunger, and death as they are the harbingers of Earth's Last Judgement."
