His angels appear to be clockwork creatures with wings of brass. In stories about Vorillian, he is always good natured and quick with a joke or a trick.

When travelling Vorillian clerics come to town they can often be seen with rows of children dancing and playing behind them. The usually wear simple, brown clothing and many are decent artificers in their own right. Clerics of Vorillian are happy to play tricks and jokes with benign outcomes, but they never use these tricks for personal gain.
