This page relates to lore, you can find the original lore here.


-=- The Creator -=-

The ultimate being, the maker of the realms, the father of all life. His very existence defines mystery itself. So little is known from beings of all ilk. Does he exist? Did he exist? Is he even alive? The Creator is so much an entity shrouded in unknowing that to many he is but a concept, and it is likely we will never know any more.

-=- Primordial -=-

A Primordial is a greater entity that is seldom found to be interfering with the likes of mortal men. Their kind are few and they exist in a state of bliss and quiet, knowing that being the most powerful entities in existence, their position at the top of the hierarchy is unquestionable. Primordials consider themselves beings of absolute knowing and authority. They mimic the Creator in many ways, but mostly through how they choose to be simple observers - self-proclaiming themselves as caretakers of life. They are defined by their age, being the oldest of all greater beings, allowing them to accumulate power through tethers to the void, acquired long before the other aengudaemons came into existence. As such, they do not define themselves as either Aengul or Daemon, believing it incorrect to pick a side.

-=- The Elder Aengul -=-

A position suited primarily for Gazardiel which defines his self-proclamation to the position above Arch, having ridden himself of the title to suit his own desires, the title of Arch became a title of falsity for he, who desired a respectable position; the position of Elder Aengul isn't necessarily official albeit presents the magic Gazardiel pertains due to the surplus of power he wields.

Elder Aengul ::

Gazardiel

-=- Arch Aengul - Arch Daemon -=-

The Arch Aengul and Arch Daemon exist as the most powerful of their kind. The Archs hold the highest authority over their kind. The title of Arch Aengul and Arch Daemon may be contested, but among the seven skies a great tension is built over this idea. A war of Aengudaemons would be a destructive one indeed.

Arch Aengul ::

Aeriel

Arch Daemon ::

Iblees

-=- Aengul -=-

Aenguls are the most common of their ethereal kind, and are defined as Aenguls by siding themselves under the Arch-Aengul and commonly wish only for deeds of pure and positive intent. They mostly exist to benefit mortal kind, albeit it in ways that would suit their own ideals.

Aenguls ::

Xan

Cernunnos

Eshtael

Cerridwen

Yeu Rthulu

Tahariae

The Wandering Wizard

Nemiisae

Wyvrun

-=- Daemon -=-

A Daemon is a being that wishes to suppress the mortals, usually for a variety of reasons in a variety of ways. A Daemon is usually depicted to be 'evil', or have negative intent. While this isn't strictly true, Daemons commonly go about making their ideals known through questionable intent, relying on corruption, deception and death.

Daemons ::

Dragur

Tayl

Metztli

Apohet

-=- Patrons -=-

A Patron is a mortal being raised in power to act as a hand of the Aengul or Daemon that empowered them. They bear aengudaemonic blood and can achieve feats no regular mortal could ever hope to achieve. While the Daemon Tayl particularly relies on Patrons to enact his will, other Aengudaemons have been known to use them, including Xan with his keepers, Iblees with his undead and Aeriel with her ascended.
