Angel

Almost no one in Gaia has seen an angel, much less know about their existence. But, this doesn't stop them from interfering with the world

  Just like demons, angels weren't created by the 10th. They're another reflection of humanity. Regardless, the 10th still consider them just as bad as demons. This is because they have a bad habit of interfering with the lives of mortals. For better or worse, the 10th doesn't want anything to influence someone's life. Despite their constant warnings and the angels who have died, they continue to do as they please.   Angels can spawn because of several different reasons. They can be born through raw emotions or a powerful prayer. Like demons, depending on what is being felt will determine the traits of an angel. It is possible to be reincarnated into an angel, but a mortal must have a strong enough will. If they do, they will wake up as an angel. Being reincarnated as an angel has a better chance of retaining your memories than reincarnating into a demon.   Angels live in Vicus, another plane of existence. Here, they spend their time doing whatever they want whenever they want. There are basic rules in play so it isn't chaotic. But generally, no one is forced to do something they don't want to. It's almost like a paradise.   Angels vary greatly. Some pursue a life of learning, while others enjoy their new found freedom. One trait all angels share, they enjoy being with those they consider friends, Threating said friends could be extremely dangerous.
