Character Profile: 30XX Muriel
By: Caterina Sforza Date: July 5, 2021, 11:21 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
When a demon that worked for Lucifer dropped in to ask why she
would want to help Kendrix of all people
Demon: Why would you want to work with someone like him? Why
not help your brother?
Muriel: Why wouldn’t I? It’s a perfectly...mutual
relationship...no partnership. We both benefit. No downsides. As
for my brother, well that fool tossed everything good he ever
had to the wayside including me when it suited him.
Demon: Surely you know he’s just using you for his own benefit.
When you’ve served your purpose you’ll be thrown to the dogs
like the rest of us.
Muriel: she smiles sweetly as she leans forward and swipes some
blood off his forehead Well here’s the thing honey. One I use
him just as much as he uses me. And two She sucks the blood off
her thumb. The demon is looking a little concerned now I
invented the dogs he throws the rest of you to. Her eyes flick
back to the demon before he starts glowing bright orange from
the eyes and mouth. His burnout vessel explodes before it hits
the floor Pity we just had the place cleaned.
Muriel: I can’t wait for the day I rip out your lungs and watch
you choke.
Crowley: Now don’t get me excited with promises you won’t keep
darling.
Muriel: You could only hope to be so lucky. Now I would love to
stay but she swipes his glass of whiskey and kicks the stool he
was seated on out from under him Duty calls. - Muriel to
Crowley when she dropped by Lux one day
“Mm shame. That was a good year.” - After using a wine bottle to
knock out a human
“Well sometimes you learn that people don’t have the kind of
integrity they claim to, so you have to find someone who does.
I’m glad we could live up to your standards and make things work
out.” -to a man when she finalized a deal for Kendrix
Muriel: Crowley, sadly, was right. It is Hell not Wall Street,
so why are we all running around playing the modern version of
f*cking monopoly!
Demon: I’d say it’s adventure capitalist more than monopoly.
Muriel: It’s ridiculous is what it is.
Barbas: He scares you. Terrifies you might actually be the
better word for it.
Muriel: No! I’m not any more terrified of him than I am of my
own father.
Barbas: Well that’s telling considering how scared you were of
his disappointment and disapproval. Clearly that’s all out the
window now.
Muriel: I hope my father burns in the fire of his own creation.
I’ll send you there too if I must. Now just do as I ask or your
precious boy in London will be sent your charred corpse. I’ve
heard inter-dimensional shipping is expensive.
“You should be so glad there’s only like fifteen of you and your
friends running around on this side of the gate. Otherwise I
would smite the hell out of you all.”
“The Jewish people call it Shaol. Christianity calls it the
Abyss. Entities like us..we call it The Empty.”
Name: Muriel Abaddon
Aliases: The Destroyer, Archangel of the Earth and Abyss, Queen
of the Locust Plague, Protector of Eden, Mother Earth
Age: Immeasurable
Species: “Fallen” Archangel
Archangel Abilities:
- Enhanced Holy Energy/Celestial Force: Having angel power,
angels have advanced holy energy and higher level angels also
have celestial force (or some might have other higher level
divine energies to use in battle), which is enhanced by their
angelic power. Their enhanced holy energy is holy energy
enhanced by their angel power, which does more damage than
normal holy energy. This is a natural holy energy to some
angel's power, as it replaces normal holy energy angels use.
Higher level angels and a lot of angelic hybrids can also use
celestial force, the highest level holy energy that some
archangels and nephilim developed to fight demon princes and
high level demonic entities, in which celestial force is an
amplification using positive spirit energy to amp holy energy.
The normal enhanced holy energy does less damage, but costs less
power to use, while the celestial force is far stronger, but
costs more power to use. This requires the user to manage their
power, using holy energy against weaker opponents and saving
celestial force for more dangerous opponents. Most angels are
trained in holy energy and have advanced holy energy, but only
high level angels or some hybrids are trained and can use
celestial force. This force is often best utilized in nephilims,
as certain angel hybrids learned to use this far more
effectively using less power since angel hybrids can more easily
create this power with stronger soul energy compared to angels.
Some angels have even developed other divine energies depending
on their power set (usually archangels who develop their own
types of powers)
- Divine Smite: With angel power, all angels have enhanced
smiting abilities which is often mistaken for divine lightning.
The first is when they put their hands on others, and purify
unholy presences, being able to destroy things like demons
possessing a body. This ability is set up so that an angel can
attack presences in people through physical contact. Some refer
to this as "purification" but the angels usually refer to it as
"smiting" as their purification is actually different. This is
an attack skill designed to destroy a presence inside of others,
usually to cast demons out of humans. When used through physical
contact, the angel is able to exorcise a presence or burn the
presence completely out of someone. Exorcising takes less time,
but doesn't hurt the presence in the body which is usually the
safer option for most angels so they don't kill the host.
However, the second option can burn the presence usually by
overpowering it with their own nature, and burn the presence out
of them. Not only does this take longer to do, but this also is
a big danger to the host, as the host can actually be killed
with this ability. This ability is typically better to use for
exorcisms, since most angels are usually trying to save people
from presences when using this power. This time it takes to
destroy a presence or exorcise it also depends on the creature,
it's strength and the type of angel. Certain creatures take much
longer or some creatures like leviathans can't be cast out by
normal angels. It's also important to note that angels take
longer to cast out presences than archangels do, who can do this
a bit faster than normal angels can.
- Angelic Shapeshift: Some angels who are more physical beings
don't actually need to possess people, in which some angels are
able to simply shapeshift into creatures that they want to take
the forms of, even being able to take unique forms based on what
they want to do. They can not only change their shape, but
disguise their presence as well, often appearing as whatever
creature they're trying to imitate. Usually, most angels appear
completely human when using this, in which they choose this
method to blend in with others to not stand out. This is very
useful since it means the angel is able to just take the form
they want rather than trying to find a vessel like more
spiritual angels. This allows them to take any race's form they
desire, with some of them even gaining physical properties of
the race they're taking, such as imitating a werewolf and
gaining a wolf-like appearance with claws and teeth. However,
this only replicates physical traits, and doesn't allow for
gaining new supernatural abilities. However, there are some
angels that do have specific shapeshift abilities, such as Erena
having a form copy power to copy powers, or some angels gaining
power from certain transformations, but theses are usually
unique depending on the angel. Most angels who use this only use
this to change form, with some using this to manipulate their
physical bodies and giving themselves more attack options such
as taking a form with claws to allow the angel to attack using
the claws. However, overall, they are still angel, and can still
be attacked the same way as normal angels, unless it is a
special transformation ability they possess.
- Angel Healing, Purification, and Restoration: All angels have
healing powers, as well as restoration abilities they can use on
others. The main ability is being able to heal others, being
able to heal things like injuries, and heal things like
afflictions caused by supernatural abilities (like unholy energy
poisoning). Angels are able to use this to also purify the
presences from others, being able to purify things like unwanted
presences in the body, and being able to remove afflictions from
the user as needed. Usually, their powers of healing and
purification are pretty useful for allies, and can even be used
on themselves to a degree since they are able to purify and heal
themselves if they find themselves in a place where they can't
heal as easily. Their last power is that of restoration, where
they can restore people and objects. Angels are able to restore
not only people, but broken objects as well depending on the
object. This typically helps with things like trying to restore
objects they need, or restoring broken weapons and armors. These
abilities typically come from an angel's nature, in which they
have a natural restorative power they are able to use that is
powered by their holy energy. This is an ability designed mostly
for healing and restoration, and this has no real attack ability
in battle, other than an angel healing themselves. Archangels
also have much more powerful healing abilities and can
heal/restore much faster than normal angels due to their
enhanced holy power and them being much more powerful than
normal angels.
- Angelic Resurrection: If someone dies, an angel is able to
bring them back to life. Angelic resurrection is able to bring
the dead back to life, which is usually much more difficult than
most other beings. Thanks to their status in Heaven, they are
usually able to resurrect anyone they desire to. However, there
are some things to note with this. The first is that they must
have the body and the soul of the person they are trying to
bring back. They can bring someone back with just the body, but
that can be a double edged sword since bringing someone back
without a soul can leave them in a state of being unable to feel
emotions, and they usually end up becoming problems later.
Usually, they can bring souls from heaven pretty easily, but
taking souls from hell is much more difficult, since certain
people having been brought back have required angels going to
hell and pulling the soul out, which can be dangerous especially
if the demons there don't want the soul to be taken from hell.
For the most part, this is only done in rare circumstances,
usually requiring a heavenly decree, or requiring the permission
of either Death or Toranoraos (usually both) before angels will
even attempt to do this. This also takes a great amount of
energy from an angel, and even an archangel can use up a lot of
power to do this. However, when used, this is typically much
more dependable than using techniques like black magic
resurrection since angelic resurrection usually doesn't have any
negative side effects other than the angel using a lot of their
power to do this. The recoil effects like taking a piece of
someone don't happen with angelic resurrection like they
typically do with black magic resurrections, and the only real
side effects the person brought back might face is if they are
brought back without a soul or scarred by what they experienced
in the afterlife (usually when being brought back from hell).
- Angelic Enochian Warding: Angels are able to wards on people
and places, with this being another power that lets them counter
things like demonic possession. Usually, angels do this, they
are able to use their power to burn wards and sigils on surfaces
in order to ward them. They are able to do things like warding
against demons, in which they would be able to use this to keep
demons from entering an area they don't want demons in, or they
could use this to even ward against angels or fallen angels
depending on what the wards used. When used on people, angels
can do this a few different ways, with them mostly being used
the same way. By putting wards on people, angels can ward others
against things like possession, ward humans with special
Enochian sigils to grant them special effects, or even making a
person untraceable by heaven and hell. Usually, angels can do
this by either burning the ward/sigil onto a person's skin, or
they can burn these into someone's bones outside of physical
view. These wards are pretty useful, and only those that know
Enochian can use counter sigils to remove these, and
angels/demons that can remove these have to know they're there
and where they are on the body. Typically, this is much more
advanced types of warding than typical warding, and use special
Enochian sigils to create powerful wards against a multitude of
threats. However, strong enough counters can counter these, like
a powerful enough demon or demon group could break a warding on
an area, or warding against possession might not work in certain
circumstances if the opponent is stronger than the ward. This
also typically only works on specific circumstances, such as
demon wards only working against demons, and angel wards only
working against angels.
- Enochian Exorcisms: Angels are normally able to send demons
back to hell using their smiting power, however, sometimes this
isn't enough, or an angel might not want to save their power. By
using Enochian exorcisms designed for angels, angels are able to
exorcise presences using Enochian chants. This is useful for
removing unwanted presences, with this originally being used to
counter demonic possession and possession by fallen angels. This
is usually designed to be used alongside their smiting power, in
which they use both to save the amount of power they need to
exorcise a presence, and can be used to do things like casting
out demonic possessions, and even can be used to cast out fallen
angel possessions. However, certain stronger presences might
require special exorcisms or might even be immune to exorcisms
(like demon princes or some more powerful archangels). For the
most part, this is also good to use because it can free those
possessed without hurting them, as the exorcism sends the
presence somewhere depending on the presence (like demons being
sent back to hell). For the most part tough, this doesn't stop
the presence from coming back, as there's usually nothing to
stop presences from coming back (like demons being able to
eventually return from hell). Usually, this is best used to free
someone from possession, then put wards on them so they cannot
be possessed again.
- Angelic Sleeping Touch: This lets an angel put someone to
sleep by touching their forehead. Through physical contact, an
angel can shut down a being's conscious mind, which renders them
unconscious. This particular skill is very useful for knocking
out others that they don't want to fight, as it typically lets
them avoid combat with people that they'd rather not fight. This
ability also bypasses psychic protection, as it uses the angelic
presence to overwhelm the conscious mind. Advanced users of this
ability can even wipe short term memories, with archangels even
being able to wipe long-term memories from the mind for those
that they don't want to know certain things. Usually wiping the
mind is only used for those they don't want to know Heaven is
protecting them, so they use this to wipe the mind if the person
they are protecting sees them or makes it so they don't remember
anything bad happening to them. However, this doesn't work on
all races, as the angel must be more powerful than the person
they're trying to put to sleep, since this power requires
overwhelming the presence of someone else to use. For this
reason, typically angels are only able to use this on normal
humans or weaker supernaturals, and this doesn't work on anyone
as strong or stronger than them in terms of presence. This power
also requires physical touch for at least one round to put into
effect, so if the opponent breaks contact during that round,
they can avoid being put to sleep. Typically tough, this is only
used on innocent bystanders or those that aren't a part of a
battle, in order to keep them out of the fight.
- Angelic Teleportation/Space and Time Travel: This ability is
one that most angels share, in that almost all angels can
teleport. Not only can they teleport around, but they are able
to teleport to other realms as well, such as going back and
forth from heaven, earth and even going to the Veil where dead
spirits reside. They are even able to travel to hell, though
traveling to hell is typically dangerous to angels as they will
often be attacked by demons there if they do teleport there.
Some angels are even skilled enough that they can bend time and
travel through time either by themselves or with others. Due to
this, most angels are able to travel in some way through time
and space fairly easily. While traveling to certain places, like
traveling time, takes a lot of energy, most angels can use basic
teleportation to travel around as they desire. Some angels even
teleport differently, such as some might disappear in a burst of
light, or some might vanish, or some even leave flurries of
angelic feathers from their wings behind as they teleport away.
When used, the angel does have to know where they are going, or
else they might travel somewhere randomly and get lost. This is
especially important when traveling between realms like going
from heaven to earth, where they might get lost in between if
they don't know where they're going. However, most angels know
the path between heaven and earth, and aside from sometimes not
knowing where specific places are, they typically have no
problem traveling there if they know where they are going.
- Angelic Astral Projection/Dream-walking: Ever since ancient
times, angels have been able to use their spiritual like being
to go back and forth from manifesting as spirits. The main use
of this was to be able to appear in dreams, a power that angels
have used to convey messages to people chosen by heaven in the
past. Unlike most beings who separate their spirit, an angel is
able to turn into a spiritual being, in which they can enter the
astral plane and react with not only dreams, but can also
interact with dead spirits, and some intelligent spirits that
are not dead spirits. Angels are able to go to the Veil where
dead spirits are usually found, or the angel can attempt to go
to the Spirit Realm, which is a realm where natural spirits
reside, if they are able to perceive the spirits (Though this is
usually a dangerous trip requiring special training to get into
the spirit realm due to it's unique spirit perception required).
This lets users commune with the dead, and with spirits that can
be perceived. Of course, the biggest use for this is to interact
with spirits, but also if one is trying to interact with a dead
spirit, it is much easier to do so in astral projection than in
physical form. The other main use of this is going back and
forth from dreams, in which angels can also enter the dream
realm, though usually in a limited fashion where they can only
interact in dreams and cannot access the full dream realm or
create dreams like many dream demons can.
Heaven Generated Abilities:
- Heaven Generated Energies/Abilities: Just as there are hell
generated abilities, there are also abilities generated in
heaven as well that some holy users can use. Unlike hell, heaven
is not set up in "layers" like hell is, but more generates
certain abilities depending on what part of heaven the power
comes from. For example, the souls in heaven generate their own
energy, but deeper in heaven, there are places like heaven's
garden and God's throne with special summonable items or powers.
For the most part, heaven is not divided like hell is, since
it's meant to be a paradise for everyone. However, certain holy
warriors have learned to use heaven's uniquely generated
abilities just as demonic enemies have learned to use hell's
abilities. Similar to hell's abilities, each ability has it's
own strengths and weaknesses, with each being different in
nature. And similar to hell's abilities, users can only learn
2-3 of these abilities unless they have special power that lets
them do so (which is very rare). These are counterable by
equivalent hell generated abilities.
- Light of Heaven: This is a powerful light generated by the
outskirts of heaven. Light users can sometimes learn to summon
this light from heaven, which is a powerful holy light that is
more powerful than typical holy light. Powerful light users can
use this light to power their light manipulation, and those with
the power to absorb light to empower themselves can absorb this
light to gain holy power from heaven. This light is able to be
used just like typical light, except that it requires higher
level light users to be able to manipulate and summon. This
light is still able to do things like being used for light
beams, light attacks, and some high level light users can even
use this to create illusions made of light. Since this is a
light manipulation skill, it can also be countered as such, with
the major counter being darkness and unholy darkness. If one
accounts for the enhanced holy power of the light, they can
counter it just like any light manipulation. Those with hell
summoning skills might also counter this with the darkness of
the 1st circle of hell as well.
- Holy Blazing Fire and Lightning: In the outer areas of heaven,
there is a defense to keep demons from entering heaven. Outside
of Heaven, the light around the outskirts of heaven generates a
powerful holy fire, which is powerful enough to generate it's
own static electricity, making it more powerful than typical
holy fire. This blazing holy fire does heavy purification and
holy damage to unholy opponents, designed to kill demons and can
even be used to do severe holy and purification damage to hell
knights and demon princes (to an extent). For the most part,
this blazing holy fire/lightning combination is stronger than
typical holy flame, and can even match some celestial flame
users. This flame can be used just like normal flames, such as
creating explosive attacks, shooting fireballs, or even burning
things through physical touch. For the most part, this works
best against demons, but can also be effective on anything
vulnerable to holy power and purification, like undead,
vampires, werewolves and other unholy presences. This fire is
strong, but can still be countered with powerful enough water
and ice attacks. Since the fire generates it's own lightning,
this is often best used by users of both flame and lightning due
to it's combination nature. Though this can also be used
separately if one can separate the two powers if one doesn't
want to use one of the elementals, such as removing the flames
to just use the lightning (though this takes more power to do,
and makes it so the flame can no longer generate more
lightning). This is also countered by the Hell generated
hellfire ability, which is the natural opposite of this power.
- Divine Wind: This power summons a powerful holy wind from
heaven. In heaven, this wind generates a cool refreshing breeze
that is empowered by good, peaceful emotions. When used, this
wind can be used to heal oneself, or even be used to purify
someone of an unwanted presence. Usually, this is designed to be
a non-battle ability, though some have managed to use it in
battle that can use holy wind, and this can be used to fight
opponents with powerful holy wind. This wind is usually
refreshing, but when concentrated, wind users can concentrate
this wind into things like shockwave attacks and slashes by
focusing the wind properly. And since this is a holy wind, this
wind is able to do holy damage to opponents if they are
vulnerable to holy damage. This is similar to how a normal wind
user uses wind, but also has added healing effects to those that
the user wants to heal. This wind is very useful for fighting
demons, since the purification power can do heavy holy
purification damage to demonic presences. To an extent, this
even works on fallen angels, since they mostly have corrupted
power. This is essentially the counter to the unholy winds of
the second circle of hell, and the two can be used in battle to
counter each other. In addition, this power is also counterable
by other counters to wind, with the main ability that counters
wind usually being earth or fire (depending on the wind used).
- Animals of Heaven Familiar Summoning: When animals die, they
are sent to heaven (unless there is a rare case where a demon
take an animal to hell, usually to turn them into a demon beast)
and those that are good with animals or have certain animal
taming abilities are able to summon animals that have been
empowered by holy energy. Some have even taken unique forms and
become holy beasts while in Heaven. Since animals are not
creatures that can think, they are not usually charged with
sinful natures, meaning that almost all animals can get into
Heaven. When summoned, these spirits can be made to fight
alongside the person summoning them, with some even developing
intelligence after gaining holy beast power. Each being summoned
is typically different, with different animals having different
stats. For the most part, bears, lions and wolves are typically
the most summoned creatures by those that use this power.
However, one shouldn't ever underestimate some of the less
powerful creatures empowered by Heaven, as they are able to
fight and do heavy holy damage to opponents as a result of their
upgraded power. This summoning acts as a counter to the demonic
ability to summon the torturer demons from the 8th circle of
hell, and can be used to counter this power. These spirits can
also be defeated in battle, to which they are then sent back to
Heaven if they are beaten in battle
- Garden of Heaven Summoning: Those with plant manipulations can
eventually learn to summon the plants of heaven's garden, which
were taken from the Garden of Eden and remain in Heaven. When
used, plant users can summon these plants and use them in
battle, such as using vines to trap opponents, or using razor
sharp leaves to attack opponents like throwing stars. Depending
on the plants summoned, these plants can be used to fight
opponents, and also do holy damage to opponents when used.
Usually, the vines are the best thing to use, since they spread
fast and are very strong. The vines are designed to completely
consume and trap the person, to which they can eventually
permanently trap the person in a mass of vines that can be used
to keep the opponent trapped indefinitely. There are also other
plants there as well that can be summoned as well depending on
the user's skill set with plants. Unlike normal plants, these
plants are not killed with fire, and are immune to burning
effects unlike other plant manipulations. As a result, these
plants are much harder to kill, usually requiring a kind of
unholy power to more effectively counter. Those that want to
counter this can still cut the vines, but overall, the best way
to avoid getting trapped is to not get surrounded by vines. It
is possible to kill the vines, but one usually needs either the
murky swamp water of the 5th circle of hell, or the boiling
blood of the 7th circle to smother the plants and use the
demonic power to kill the plants. This can be done with typical
demon energy, but is much more difficult, while higher level
demon energies can do this more easily.
Passive Angelic Abilities:
- Angelic Wings/Wing Suppression: All angels have angel wings to
a degree, with some having more unique wings than others. These
wings are usually a defining trait for angels, and as one might
expect, angels are able to fly using these wings. Typically most
wings look bird-like in nature, being white wings that can give
off light when shown that comes from the spirit of the angel
itself. These wings can be made visible, but most angels on
earth have ways to suppress their wings, with two main ways. The
first is simple, in which their wings are shapeshifted into
their backs, usually shapeshifted so they are out of sight. The
second is the more common method most angels use, where their
wings are left on the spiritual plane rather than on the
physical one, and their wings become intangible as a result.
While still there, their wings are not seen, and cannot be
attacked while they are in the spiritual plane. Usually when
this method is used, the only real way to see the angel's wings
is when they flare up their angelic power, and their wings
become visible on their shadows behind them as their bodies
generate a mass of light. However, there are angels that have
unique abilities with their wings, such as some who are able to
use special wing skills (like Amenadiel being able to shapeshift
his wings into spear-like projectiles).
- Angelic Holy Presence Empowerment: Like demons who are able to
gain power from sinful desires, angels have their own way to
more easily regain their power and even amp their power if their
power is full. By absorbing energy from a holy place, or a holy
item, they are able to replenish their power. This could be as
simple as drinking holy water, or even walking into a holy place
to recover strength from the holy place, like a church or
sanctified area. For the most part, these items and places help
replenish an angel's power when they need a faster recovery, and
can even help strengthen them if used. When fighting battles in
sanctified places or in places like churches, angels gain an
advantage as the holiness of the holy place they are not only
restores some of an angel's power as they fight, but also tend
to weaken unholy presences like demons due to the holy presence.
As such, angels usually fight best in places that are holy since
they are able to constantly recover some of their power.
However, depending on the area, it's not often all of their
power that gets restored, and typically, this also depends on
the angel and how much of an affinity for absorbing holy energy
from presences they have. Another thing to note is that this
method takes longer to recharge archangels, since archangels
typically have more power than normal angels to restore, making
this better for normal angels, but this does also work for
archangels even if it's to a lesser degree. Typically, holy
places are the best places to do this, or using certain holy
items as only certain holy items will do this (like holy water).
For example, an angel cannot gain power from a burning ring of
holy oil, as it doesn't give off a kind of holy power they can
absorb.
- Angel Radio: Angels have their own communication network,
dubbed by mortals as "Angel Radio". Typically, even angels have
come to refer to this as angel radio, and use it to communicate
with each other when needed. This is shared among all angels,
with any angel being able to communicate on it, and hear what's
going on. Even nephilim that are not full angels are able to tap
into this with training or the right angel forcing communication
with them. Usually the main use of this is for them to
communicate with each other, but there is another use for this
in which angels can hear the prayers of mortals. Usually, it's
rare for lower angels to get prayers specifically, but some
angels respond to prayers and will actually use this to help
mortals who need it (usually grand priest angels who's primary
job is to build faith in humans). Typically, angels are able to
zero in on anyone who prays, even if they are warded, and are
able to go to that person (though they might not be able to
reach them if they are warded). Most angels can hear general
prayers, though typically, specific angels being prayed to can
only be heard by the angel that the mortal is praying to, such
as the Winchesters sometimes using this to call Castiel when
they need him. This can also be used to send tactical
information during large-scale battles, as angels are not only
able to communicate battle plans, but can even do things like
sending SOS signals. This isn't a battle power, just being
mostly for angels who answer prayers in God's place and for
angels to communicate. However, caution is advised for those
that tap into this without Heaven's consent, as those who access
this without heaven's consent are often investigated to see if
the person should have a connection to angel radio or not
(usually investigating nephilim as they are the only one that
can usually tap into this besides angels and the rare fallen
angel.
- Angelic Mimicry/Mortal Reading: Angels have a natural affinity
for mimicking others, in which they can do things like mimicking
someone's actions exactly. Their mimicry is so complete that
they are even able to copy the voices of others, such as
mimicking the voice of someone to lure an enemy into a trap, or
mimicking someone's actions to each muscle movement. This
typically goes along with their ability to read mortals, in
which angels are able to read a mortal's body language usually
fairly easily. The biggest use for this is that most angels can
tell when someone is lying, in which they can tell by reading
the person's body whether or not the person believes they are
telling the truth. While this doesn't help against those that
can suppress their unconscious minds signs at lying (like the
Darkfires and Hazeldines can), it does help angels more easily
read almost anyone that they can read. When combining these two
abilities together, it shows that the angels have a high ability
to read someone, as well as mimic their movements and can even
copy certain combat styles by watching people fight. Typically,
this can help in a fight, since they can more easily learn how
certain combat styles work. However, some beings might not be as
easy to mimic, specifically those that have specific powers that
prevent themselves from being mimicked, and some have abilities
that prevent them from being read by other beings.
- Angelic Cosmic Awareness: Most angels are powerful enough that
they are aware of most things going on in the known universe, as
long as it's something the angels have knowledge of. Angels
typically have a pretty good understanding of much of the forces
of the universe, including those many people wouldn't think
would be important. On top of that, most angels have such an
awareness of the universe that most angels can detect changes in
space and time, in which angels can tell when someone is time
traveling and changing time, or tell when someone is teleporting
if they can track the teleportation. For the most part, angels
are designed to be able to handle most threats in the known
universe, and aside from things like primordial beings, they
typically have knowledge of most things going on, including
knowing things like when portals to alternate dimensions have
been created as well. However, there is a limit to this, as
certain types of creatures are not always known or angels might
not have awareness of the entire universe. One such example is
that angels typically don't have any cosmic knowledge of
primordial beings, with one example being the The'Galin (though
many angels do now know about them due to the war being fought).
For the most part, some angels have faced primordial beings and
simple described heaven's response as "alarms are going off that
haven't gone off since creation", which shows that their
knowledge only goes so far.
- Multi-Linguist/Language Learning: Most angels and fallen
angels have been around a long time, and know a great many
languages used by people on earth. Typically, most angels know
almost every language on earth, including ancient and forgotten
languages. The most common one to hear from an angel is
Enochian, in which Enochian is the language used by angels, and
is usually the default language they have that is used in Heaven
by angels. However, angels are also able to speak other
languages, with their second specialty being Hebrew, Biblical
Hebrew and other ancient languages that were used to write the
bible, which many angels know about. However, they are not
limited to these languages, as they can speak almost any modern
language, such as English, French, Spanish, and many other
languages. Because angels have been around since the creation of
humanity, they have mostly seen every language that has
developed thanks to man, and know almost every language there is
to know since they also knew each language before the languages
all split off and eventually became different languages. Due to
this, they have no need to learn new languages, as they
automatically gain this through interacting with humans and can
learn other languages after hearing enough of the language.
- Angelic Supernatural Life Span: Angels and archangels, being
angelic beings, have an indefinite lifespan. Thanks in part to
their supernatural regeneration, and their design in being a
type of creature that doesn't get old, angels don't age, and no
known angel has died of old age that hadn't given up their grace
to become mortal. While an angel can still be killed in battle,
or killed in a few different ways, they cannot die of old age,
because their angelic regeneration and their design has been set
up so that they do not grow old. Most angels stay in the same
form they were since the dawn of creation (as they are created
in their prime form), in which their angelic self typically
takes the form of the form they take when they were created. For
the most part, it's not known if angels will eventually die of
old age and just haven't yet, since it's not known if older
angel's regeneration can break down over time, which often
causes many regenerative types to age once they get old enough
they start losing their regenerative abilities. Since no angel
has reached that point, it is believed that they have an
indefinite life span, and since it's believed angels were
designed this way, the angels are believed to never have to
worry about dying of old age unless they choose to by giving up
their grace and living a human life (which some have done).
Since the life span is indefinite, no one knows if angels or
archangels can die of old age. It's not said by those like God,
so it's believed that they have an indefinite life span unless
something in them is changed by those like God. However, this
doesn't mean they can't be killed in battle, as they can still
be killed by things like angel blades (normal angels can be
killed by angel blades), or things like death scythes (which can
also kill archangels).
- Supernatural Telepathy: This ability lets an angel communicate
telepathically with anyone they can connect to. Typically this
power uses their angel radio, in which they use it to tune to a
person if they know where they are in order to communicate with
them. This lets them communicate with other people without
having to speak, with them being able to share thoughts directly
with others. However, usually the angel has to know where the
person is to use this since they have to know where to send
their thoughts. However, this doesn't apply to those who
establish permanent connections, such as connecting to other
family members. This lets angels not only communicate with those
they have a permanent connect with, but can also tell them where
they are at any time should they require to find them or need to
be summoned to them (which they typically do with their angel
radio). Those who are set up with permanent connections have to
accept the connection, and even then, they can sever it if they
choose to.
- Weapon Intangible Storing/Summoning: While most angels don't
use a lot of weapons other than angel blades, they are able to
summon their weapons if they know where they are. Similar to
their teleportation power, they can typically call their weapons
to them at any time, as well as some even being able to store
their weapon intangibly on their person where it is with them,
but made intangible in a manner similar to their art of making
their wings intangible. As such, this makes a good way to store
weapons that won't cause problems, as they can use this to store
weapons on them, but being intangible, they don't slow the angel
down to keep with them. Usually, most angels keep their angel
blades in their sleeves, where their blades are summoned and
called out of their sleeves when they need them. Some angels
have their own unique arts for this, but this is a good way to
store weapons in a way that doesn't require them to carry them,
but also doesn't bog down their spirits with weapons like those
that use the attach items to self power. They are able to store
any weapon on them they desire, however, unlike the attach item
to self power, they cannot summon the weapon back to them if
they are separated from it, and they typically have to go and
get the weapon before they can de-summon it. Some have unique
arts for this, but typically this is the best way to store
weapons for an angel.
- Angelic Enhanced Senses; Depending on the angels, most angels
have highly enhanced senses. Most are able to do things like
seeing things from very far away, or hearing a conversation
going on a block away. They also have a strong enough sense of
smell that they can tell who people are just by the scent they
give off, and can even smell someone's DNA through scent alone.
Thanks to this, angels have very strong senses, and are on par
with almost any supernatural's senses. Each angel has their own
balance of senses, with some having lesser senses and other
stronger senses, usually depending on the angel and what their
specialties are. Typically, most angels do have very strong
senses, which can also be a weakness to a degree, since enhanced
senses can be taken advantage of, such as taking advantage of a
strong sense of smell by using a strong smell to overwhelm them.
This does depend on the angel, as some don't have as enhanced
senses, but those that do can be very difficult to avoid. Some
can even gain unique senses, such as fire users gaining a
thermal sense, or a lightning user being able to sense
electrical signals around them, mostly depending on the skills
and how the angel uses them.
- Angelic Sixth Sense: Much like vampires and other
supernaturals, angels can sense the presence of other beings,
and sensing who and what they are. This can sense not only one's
presence, but their levels of energy and how tough they are,
allowing the user to gauge how they stand against them, as well
as often being able to tell what they are by their presence if
the user recognizes what kind of presence it is. However, this
can be deceived by skilled opponents, sometimes not appearing
correctly if the user can't sense the opponent's full power or
use powers that fool this sense. There are also skills that hide
one's presence so those with this sense can't sense them, or
some opponents can suppress their presence so they're not fully
able to be sensed. While this isn't always the best judge of
someone's abilities, it can provide a slight insight to help the
user as to what they face or what's around them.
- Angelic Mind Resistance: All angels have a resistance to mind
alterations and other powers that influence the mind thanks to
their design. When the angels were created, they weren't granted
minds like those of mortal beings, but rather, they had unique
minds that were "programmed" by their creator (like God
programming the angels he created). As such, they have
resistance to powers that might interfere with this, as they all
have a base "programming" that essentially cannot be altered by
most creatures. As a result, most abilities that affect the mind
don't work well on angels, though some stronger abilities do
still work but to a reduced effect. The only real exception to
this is those that have figured out how this "programming"
works, like those like Crowley have researched angels enough and
even managed to use rods that were drilled into an angel's mind
to "rewrite" their minds to a small degree. While this is not
possible to do on a large scale, those that know how this works
can actually reduce this defense by actually damaging their
heads, such as stabbing certain parts of their brain. However,
the specifics of how to do this are not known, and no one
besides a select few even know that Crowley was able to do it in
the past.
- Enhanced Angel/Archangel and Combat Trained Physical Stats:
All angels and archangels are all trained and are highly
enhanced warriors designed specifically for battle. For the most
part, all angels have highly enhanced physical stats in some
way. Each angel typically has different abilities, with each
angel being different in their physical combat. This depends not
only on the angel specifically, but also depends on their
training and how they train their physical stats. Some may focus
on strength, some on defense, or some on speed. This is usually
specific to each angel, with archangels usually even having
higher physical stats than normal angels due to being designed
as heaven's most powerful weapons. Angels and archangels are
usually very tough opponents, and most typically have stats that
let them compete with a lot of higher level supernaturals,
whether they are normal angel, grand priest angel or even
archangel. As such, it's hard to predict the individual stats of
every angel, but one typical rule is that angels usually either
focus one to three stats specifically, or they may focus all
their stats evenly. If they focus one to three stats
specifically, other stats not trained are typically not as high
with certain exceptions. And when an angel focuses all their
stats evenly, they typically have lesser stats, but all their
stats are usually fairly even. Again, this does depend on the
angel and their own preferences, as well as the level of angel
that one is up against.
Demonic Abilities:
- Fallen Angel-Turned Demon Power (Angels turned demon only):
Angels and fallen angels are far more predictable than humans
when it comes to becoming demons. While many still become unique
demons based on who they were before their fall from grace, most
angels who fall into the corruption of turning into demons are
usually easier to predict than human turned demons. The most
known angels turned demon are the demon princes, who were
angelic before they eventually were turned into demons through
embracing their corruption. Unlike humans, an angel or fallen
angel are "reborn" as demons when they embrace their corruption
of sin, or the corruption of sin corrupts them beyond a certain
point. This can happen to a normal angel or to a fallen angel,
though fallen angels are typically more prone to this than
normal angels. Most of an angel's power is converted into
demonic power when they change, barring certain exceptions to
the rule, like the demon prince Asmodeus who became the first
nephalem-type demon. However, angels turned demon are also
typically more powerful than humans turned demon, due to angels
being a more powerful race (usually, but not always), and become
all about power when they turn into demons, as evidenced by
their spirit nature change that converts them from a holy
healing type spirit to a much more potent demonic spirit.
However, the things that must be noted is that while the angels
are more powerful once converted into demons, they have less
adaptability than human-turned demons, and aren't able to learn
new powers as easily, with some having to resort to soul
devouring or absorbing powerful forces in order to make
themselves stronger. Usually, most angels who turn demon often
become powerful demon lords, usually ruling over their own
legions of demons, often acting like generals and rulers of
hell.
- Demonic/Demon Aura Manipulation: Most demons are familiar with
demonic energy, with demonic energy being the basic unholy
energy that fuels almost every kind of demonic power generated
by demonic entities. Demonic energy is fairly basic for most
demons, being an unholy energy that can be used to attack
opponents or be used with certain powers in order to create new
variations of abilities. This energy is pretty basic, and the
opposite of normal angelic/holy energy. Unlike angelic holy
energy though, typically demonic energy is more about power than
anything, whereas angelic power is about purification. While the
two still counter each other just the same, most know how
demonic energies are all about raw power. And at the top of the
more powerful energies demons can wield, higher level demons can
use demon aura, a higher level demon power where demons fuse
demonic energy with their unholy aura to create a powerful
demonic energy, originally designed to counter archangels and
the angels that use celestial force to fight higher end demons.
Both energies are unholy and demonic in nature, being able to be
used similarly to attack opponents or combine with other
techniques. There is also an amplification effect demonic energy
can be used to amp those of unholy nature, which is easier to
use when using demonic aura, as it is a more natural amplifier
to demons than normal demon energy. As many know, normal demonic
energy doesn't do as much damage as demon aura, but costs less
power to use while demon aura does more damage but costs more
power. And these energies can of course be countered by their
holy counterparts. This also doesn't cover things like demonic
spirit energy which is more powerful than most other types of
spirit energy, or many other demonic powers and energies that
exist among more unique kinds of demons. Just like there being
many kinds of holy energy, there are many kinds of unholy energy
as well. Of course, just the same, demonic energies are
countered by their holy energy counterparts, with there being a
holy counterpart for almost any kind of demonic energy/power.
- Darkness/Unholy Darkness Manipulation: Just as angels
typically use light and fallen angels use corrupted
light/darkness, demons use darkness to fight, being unholy
creatures that can fight using darkness. Thanks to this, many
demons are able to manipulate darkness to attack opponents, and
can even fuse normal demonic energy to their darkness to create
an unholy darkness depending on the demon's abilities. Most
demons can not use demonic darkness, which fuses demon aura with
darkness energy, because the two energies are hard to fuse
together without exploding in one's face. However, those who are
trained and experienced enough, or train with those like
Belphegor who use demonic darkness may eventually learn to use
it with enough practice and training. Demons who use this are
able to use shadows to attack others, and use certain techniques
like shadow traveling if they become experienced enough in
learning how to manipulate darkness and how it connects to the
shadow realm but since demons have their own method of
teleportation, they typically don't need to use shadow travel.
Using shadows is actually a bit harder than one might think,
since shadows can be used in multiple ways. One could solidify
shadows to spear others, create a liquid-like shadow to drown
someone in shadows, or even create a shadow mist to darken an
area. There are many variations of darkness abilities, as shown
by fallen angels, and this might not just include normal
darkness, but there might be those who are able to power magic
on darkness (such as dark magic), and those that can power
special arts on darkness, like the dark arts. Unlike light with
is more glass-like nature, shadows are more of a liquid type
control unless solidified. These darkness manipulations of
course are counterable by typical light abilities, and can be
countered like any other darkness manipulation. Unholy darkness
can also be countered by holy power. Just as there are multiple
types of light, there are also just as many types of darkness if
not more.
- Hellfire Manipulation (can be changed to different demon
element): Most demons usually start out with at least one
demonically-infused element, with most demons starting out with
hellfire as their initial power. This mostly depends on the type
of demon, as some demons may start with some other demonic
element, but this is often the default elemental power most
demons start out with. Hellfire is generated in hell, but is
able to be created by demons who have this power, using demonic
energy to generate heat until they create fire from their
demonic power, generating a powerful crimson flame that burns
hotter than normal flames. Some can even summon hellfire from
hell itself, in which summoned hellfire can be used much more
easily since it doesn't have to be created. This is usable just
like normal flame manipulation, such as burning others, creating
fireball attacks, creating constructs of flames, or even
creating explosive attacks. This fire is an advanced fire
manipulation, and does a combination of fire and demonic energy
damage when used. More advanced users can use hellfire for
other, more advanced purposes, such as creating lava type
attacks or molten object attacks, but this not only requires
advanced control training, but also requires being able to
change the fire's form into more of a liquid type flame,
something only advanced fire manipulations can do. Typically,
most demons only start with this before awakening their own
unique demonic type powers, and some can even lose this if they
have certain abilities, such as the demon Leviathan who is a
water type demon and lost his ability to generate hellfire in
favor of generating demonic water manipulation. This is
counterable just like normal flames, though one has to keep
track of the fact that the flames burn much hotter than normal
flames, so one needs higher level ice manipulation, or a
powerful holy energy manipulation that can counter the demonic
element.
- Demonic Presence: Almost all demons have some sort of demonic
presence, which many have learned to weaponize. When a demon is
present, most have some way that it shows when they are around.
This is different depending on the demon and their abilities.
Those with stronger auras may have enhanced aura or some may
have more subtle presences. Usually, anytime a demon is present,
most will notice the smell of sulfur, or sulfur might be left
behind by demons, as a product of their power that comes from
hell and of their demonic energy. All demons have some sort of
presence that they give off and many generate this sulfur. This
is unique to most demons, though most usually either have a
strong unholy aura, or they have a strong presence that can be
felt. Most demons are able to suppress this presence so others
can't sense them usually, but the demons do still leave behind
sulfur, which is something that tends to happen passively. This
is mostly just an effect of a demon's presence in an area, an
effect that actually tends to make them easier to track.
However, there is an advantage to this, as some demons have
learned to weaponize this presence. Some use this in combination
with other demonic abilities, generating sulfur for their own
purposes, usually those with a more scientific understanding of
how sulfur interacts with other elements. This eventually became
a weapon that many normal demons without presence powers can
use, where they can do fight others using their presence's
sulfur, such as using molten sulfur as an explosive substance,
or a water demon using sulfur to create sulfuric acid
manipulation. Though some demons like Lucifer or Asmodeus may
light up an area with their presence, or some demons have unique
effects like areas growing strong with energy or storms
appearing overhead for more powerful demons with weather
manipulation abilities. However, even demons with unique
presences have learned to weaponize their presence somehow. This
usually just depends on the demon and their affinities, as well
as how their power interacts with their presence.
- Demon Telekinesis/Shockwaves: Most demons have some form of
demonic telekinesis that they gain when they become a demon, in
which they can grab, throw or hold things. This is useful for
dealing with opponents, in which most demons can telekinetically
throw or hold opponents depending on how their telekinesis
manifests. Some can also use this to throw objects or grab
objects with a hold and move it to them, which is a typical
ability. This telekinesis can also be focused by some demons
into shockwave techniques where they are able to fire
telekinetic shockwaves at opponents to do concussive damage,
with some being able to only use this in shockwaves, and some
are only able to grab things with their telekinesis. Some who
are more powerful can also do things to affect people, such as
using this on their voice box to silence them, or using this on
certain objects to crush them in a telekinetic hold. Some more
advanced demons can even do things like heating up objects with
their telekinesis, or even generating electrical power depending
on how they use it. Depending on the technique and skill of the
demon, almost all demons have to concentrate to use this, in
which opponents can break free by breaking their concentration.
Usually the best way to break a demon's concentration is to
attack them, in which they are forced to focus on the
telekinesis or the attack. This power can be resisted against by
stronger opponents, as some can slightly overcome the
telekinetic hold. It's also possible to move fast enough to
avoid getting grabbed by telekinesis if one simply moves faster
than the telekinetic grab can grab them, which requires immense
speed to be able to move completely out of an area within one
fourth of a second (roughly). This can also be countered with
other telekinetic style abilities.
- Demon Possession: Just like angels and fallen angels, demons
have two main choices when possessing people. Their first option
is often the most used option availaible, in which they possess
others. Unlike angels who require permission from a host before
possessing them, demons simply possess their hosts forcefully,
usually overpowering their consciousness and suppressing the
host. This is beneficial for demons, and the longer they keep
someone under their control, the easier they learn to control
their host. While they can do voluntary possessions if a vessel
is willing, it is usually rare for someone to offer themselves
up to a demon, so it often becomes necessary to forcifully
possess someone. Unlike angels who require permission, this is
useful for demons because they will often try to find strong
hosts they can forcibly control and use their power to fight
their enemies. However, there are a few downsides to this
method, just as angelic possession has it's downsides. The first
is that stronger minds might be harder to suppress and control,
which can cause the demon to have to fight for control, and can
sometimes even be forced out if the person is strong willed
enough, especially if certain exorcisms and Enochian sigils are
used to weaken the demon. The second is that supernatural
hunters tatoo a certain mark on them that acts like an
anti-possession ward, and anyone with this ward cannot be
possessed by a demon (even though they can be possessed by
angels since angel possession is voluntary). Because of this,
demonic possession has it's own downsides, but usually most
demons use normal humans or weaker supernaturals anyway, since
they don't want to possess people with minds strong enough to
fight their possession. This possession is more often used when
one wants to possess someone with unique abilities, ones that
the demon wants to use themselves.
- Demonic Shapeshift: Similar to angels who shapeshift, demons
are able to do this as well. Normally many demons take a
smoke-like form when in their normal state due to being
corrupted spiritual beings normally, but demons have learned how
to shapeshift their smoke and shapeshift into other beings.
Thanks to this, this provides them a way to manifest themselves
in the real world without needing a possession. This is usually
made even more effective by more unique demons who might use
this to grant themselves unique traits, such as a bird-type
demon manifesting bird wings to fly, or a wolf demon having
claws. This mostly depends on the demon, with some even
weaponizing their normal smoke-like form (if they have the form
to use), where they can change the smoke of their being that
makes up their body into weapons and battle with a type of
demonic smoke body manipulation not that different from the
Darkfire elemental form power. This depends entirely on the
demon and how creative they can get with this power, since it
just requires them knowing what form and presence they want to
take. However, just like angels, their mass stays the same no
matter what form they turn into, so turning into a larger form
won't make them a larger being, and turning into something like
a dragon might actually make them weaker because they'd be
easier to cut through thanks to having less mass. Usually, any
demon can still be hurt no matter what form they are in, and
weapons that can attack spirits (Such as soul reaper zanpakutos
and death wraith soul swords) can still hurt them even if they
are in their smoke-like form.
- Demon Ally Healing and Corruption: Unlike angels who heal and
purify, demons don't need to "purify" unholy power. Instead,
they fight holy power by using the power of corruption. If one
of their allies is hurt, a demon is able to fix their allies
with their demonic power, and can fix damage done to other
beings allied with them. This power works similar for demons how
an angel's healing and purification power works for them, where
they use this to fix each other, and heal those afflicted with
holy afflictions. Because they are purely unholy in nature,
demons get rid of holy effects using this method, by using their
power of corruption to remove holy afflictions that might affect
them and their demonic allies. They are also able to heal
others, similar to an angel, by removing injuries and some
illnesses, though this power is very rarely used by demons.
Demons typically don't use this power unless they are healing
another demon, or helping an ally. They also rely on this
partially to break holy wards, by using their corruption to
slowly break a holy ward. This means that demon wards can be
broken using this power, but this might take a while depending
on the demon and how powerful their abilities are. They do also
have restoration powers to a degree, where they are able to fix
objects that are damaged or broken, which is another power that
they rarely ever use. Typically, their powers of healing and
restoration are similar to an angels, except for their
corruption to remove holy afflictions being different from
purification for the obvious reasons of this being made to
counter holy power rather than use it. Stronger demons have
stronger abilities to do this, just as stronger angels have
stronger healing and purification abilities.
- Demonic Resurrection: Just like angels, a demon is able to
bring someone back to life. Demonic resurrection is able to
bring the dead back to life, which is easier for demons than
most beings. Thanks to their abilities, they are usually able to
resurrect anyone they desire to, as long as certain conditions
are met. However, there are some things to note with this. The
first is that they must have the body and the soul of the person
they are trying to bring back. They can bring someone back with
just the body of the person who died, but that can be a double
edged sword since bringing someone back without a soul can leave
them in a state of being unable to feel emotions, and it could
become a problem later. Usually, they can bring souls from hell
pretty easily since they have easy access to hell, but taking
souls from heaven is impossible for demons without the consent
of heaven, since demons don't have any status with heaven and
cannot get into heaven to steal souls, which can be a chore to
convince heaven to let them bring someone back. For the most
part, this is only done in rare circumstances, usually requiring
a heavenly decree, or requiring the permission of either Death
or Toranoraos (usually both) before even demons will even
attempt to bring someone back, or it is someone they really
need. This also takes a great amount of energy from a demon, and
even a high level demon can use up a lot of power to do this.
The other downside is that demonic resurrections usually require
a price, usually a life for a life, as that is the price of
bringing someone back. The recoil effects like taking a piece of
someone don't happen with demonic resurrection like they
typically do with black magic resurrections, unless the demon
doesn't properly pay the price of bringing back the person.
However, the only demons usually allowed to do this are high
level demons (usually demon princes).
- Demonic Ally Amplification: Demons are able to amplify those
that ally with them, in which they are able to strengthen their
allies in other beings (typically empowering each other). The
most common use of this is when an demon empowers another demon,
and the demon becomes much harder to damage, and does more
damage to opponents. Some demons have been able to also grant
specific other defenses to others, such as some demons granting
defense against certain abilities, like using this power to help
protect them from flames or lightning powers to a degree. This
usually depends on the demon and their abilities, as every demon
typically has some unique way to amplify someone, whether it's
granting them temporary immunity to flames, granting them
regenerative abilities, or even some who can make someone's skin
hard enough to resist bullets. This amplification works on
demons as well as other supernaturals, and typically works best
when they are allied alongside others who are working with them
amping the demon as well. This was originally designed for
guardian angels who developed this power in order to help
protect the people they would guard from harm, but was adapted
by demons into a way for them to use this to empower their
allies. Demonic enhancement is far more powerful than angelic
enhancement, but over time, if overused, can damage a being due
to the immense spiritual power of demons. Because of this,
demons have to be careful, and only use this when absolutely
necessary. Unlike angels who use this on humans, demons mostly
use this on each other, though sometimes they have human
followers they might empower if they are working with followers.
- Demonic Enochian Warding: Demons are able to wards on people
and places, with this being another power that lets them counter
angels using Enochian by burning demonic runes on surfaces.
Usually, when demons do this, they are able to use their power
to burn wards and sigils on surfaces in order to ward them
against angels or even fallen angels. They are able to do things
like warding against angels, in which they would be able to use
this to keep angels from entering an area they don't want demons
in, or they could use this to even ward against fallen angels
depending on what the wards used. When used on people, demons
can do this a few different ways, with them mostly being used
the same way. Unlike angels, demon wards are all about either
casting out angels, or keeping them out of areas, though they
can also use this to help ward their followers against angelic
tracking. Usually, demons can do this by either burning the
demonic runes onto a person's skin, or they can burn these into
someone's bones outside of physical view. These wards are pretty
useful, and only those that know Enochian can use counter sigils
or spells to remove these, and angels/demons that can remove
these have to know they're there and where they are on the body.
Typically, this is a much more advanced type of warding than
typical warding, and use special Enochian runes to create
powerful wards against a multitude of threats (Though angels and
fallen angels typically are the major things demons are
concerned about). However, strong enough counters can counter
these, like a powerful enough angel or angel group could break a
warding on an area, or warding against possession might not work
in certain circumstances if the opponent is stronger than the
ward. This also typically only works on specific circumstances,
such as angel wards only working against angels, and fallen
angel wards only working against fallen angels.
- Demonic Enochian Exorcisms: For a long time, demons didn't
know how to kill angels, since angels regenerated from
everything a demon threw at them. However, this didn't stop
demons from finding ways to get rid of angels. Instead of trying
to kill them, demons developed spoken exorcisms that they could
use to send angels back to heaven, or use special sigils to cast
an angel out of an area. While demons these days can kill angels
(if they have the weapons and want to do it), they still learn
this ability as a good way to cast out angels. Demons have to
main sets of exorcism type spells. The first is for angels,
where they have developed major exorcisms for casting angels
back to heaven, and the second is for fallen angels to cast them
to a random location on earth. This doesn't keep angels in
heaven forever, but does keep them from coming back for at least
a few hours, usually enough time for a demon to have relocated.
They can also cast angels out of vessels using spoken exorcisms,
where they are able to use this against strong angels with
stronger vessels. Typically this was used by demons when they
couldn't kill angels, which isn't the case anymore, but this can
still be used against stronger angels they can't beat if they
can speak the whole exorcism on the angel, though it's rare for
an angel to just let a demon exorcise them, so a demon should
obviously expect resistance. Typically, there are situations
where exorcisms are useful, but most times, using sigils to cast
an angel away is better than using spoken exorcisms, since it
requires less prep work, and spoken exorcisms can be somewhat
lengthy at times. Fallen angels and angels do have to be cast
out differently, so one has to also know the difference between
the two exorcisms. They do have smaller exorcisms for other
things, but angels and fallen angels are usually a demon's main
enemies, so their exorcisms are mostly focused on them.
- Demonic Mind Manipulation: Unlike angels who mostly just knock
someone unconscious, demons have the ability to manipulate minds
of people, usually planting suggestions or orders into their
minds. Similar to the sleeping touch power of angels, this is
done with demons through physical touch, in which the demon
touches the forehead and then implants any orders or
manipulation using this power. Unlike angels who typically do
this to avoid fighting, demons use this in order to manipulate
humans and other beings they want to use, with most of them
being able to use this on anyone who is able to be manipulated.
While this doesn't work well against those that can resist or
are immune to mind manipulation, this is often a good way for
demons to use people to get information, since they can plant
orders and manipulate them to do something for them so that they
don't have to do it themselves. They are also able to manipulate
memories, just like angels are able to with their sleeping
touch. This works much the same way, where demons simply have to
figure out what they want to remove or change. However, if a
demon tries to remove a memory, they have to be careful, because
if they don't replace the memory, then a blank spot will appear
in the victim's mind and could cause the victim's mind to fill
the blank spot with unconscious memories (sometimes of the demon
manipulating their mind). This power is only usuable on normal
humans and weaker supernaturals, and is only really used for
demons who want to use people to get information, so they can
manipulate someone into getting them information from somewhere
they cannot go, such as a place that is warded against demons,
or a place they don't want to be tracked to. For the most part,
this is used different from an angel's sleeping touch, but has
the same weaknesses as their sleeping touch power.
- Demonic Teleportation/Space and Time Travel: This ability is
one that most angels, fallen angels and demons share, in that
almost all angels and demons can teleport. Not only can they
teleport around, but they are able to teleport to other realms
as well, such as going back and forth from heaven, earth and
even going to the Veil where dead spirits reside. This is most
often used to travel back and forth between Earth and Hell. Some
demons are even skilled enough that they can bend time and
travel through time either by themselves or with others. Due to
this, most demons are able to travel in some way through time
and space fairly easily. While traveling to certain places, like
traveling time, takes a lot of energy, most demons can use basic
teleportation to travel around as they desire. Some demons even
teleport differently, such as some might disappear in a burst of
hellfire, or some might vanish, or some even leave sulfur
presence behind as they teleport away. When used, the demon does
have to know where they are going, or else they might travel
somewhere randomly and get lost. This is especially important
when traveling between realms like going from earth back to
hell, where they might get lost in between if they don't know
where they're going. However, most demons know the path between
hell and earth well, and aside from sometimes not knowing where
specific places are, they typically have no problem traveling
there if they know where they are going.
- Demonic Astral Projection/Dream-walking: Ever since ancient
times, demons have been able to use their spiritual like being
to go back and forth from manifesting as spirits just like
angels. The main use of this was to be able to appear in dreams,
a power that demons have used to convey messages to people
chosen by hell or tried to decieve humans by posing as angels in
the past. Unlike most beings who separate their spirit, a demon
is able to turn into a spiritual being, in which they can enter
the astral plane and react with not only dreams, but can also
interact with dead spirits, and some intelligent spirits that
are not dead spirits. Demons are able to go to the Veil where
dead spirits are usually found, or the demon can attempt to go
to the Spirit Realm, which is a realm where natural spirits
reside, if they are able to perceive the spirits (Though this is
usually a dangerous trip requiring special training to get into
the spirit realm due to it's unique spirit perception required,
and demons are usually cast out of the spirit realm). Typically,
demons usually go more to the Shadow Realm, where dark spirits
reside outside of the death wraith controlled territory, which
is much better for them. This lets users commune with the dead,
and with spirits that can be perceived. Of course, the biggest
use for this is to interact with spirits, but also if one is
trying to interact with a dead spirit, it is much easier to do
so in astral projection than in physical form. The other main
use of this is going back and forth from dreams, in which demons
can also enter the dream realm, though usually in a limited
fashion where they can only interact in dreams and cannot access
the full dream realm or create dreams in the real world like
many dream demons can.
- Destroy Heaven's/Hell's Gate Pieces/God Fragments (High Level
Demons Only): Very rarely, higher level demons or archangels at
around demon princes or archangel levels can destroy pieces of
heaven and hell gates which are not able to be destroyed by
normal demons and angels, which would normally be used to weaken
most angels or demons using opposing forces (IE using a Heaven's
gate piece to weaken a demon). While the demon/angel can still
gain enhancements from their force, such as demons getting amped
power form Hell's Gate pieces, or angels getting amped power
from Heaven's Gate pieces, demons and angels with this power can
choose to destroy the pieces instead if they pose a threat.
Another power that higher level angels and demons have is that
they can often destroy god fragments once their power grows high
enough by overcoming the fragment with their own power.
Destroying any of these doesn't kill those who have these pieces
or fragments fused to their souls, but instead just makes them
lose whatever benefit the fragment and pieces give them. This
technique requires immense power to use, and only the highest
level angels and demons can ever hope to be able to do this.
However, while being able to destroy a god fragment may sound
impressive, it's really not as impressive as it sounds since god
fragments are very small bits of God's power as it mostly just
means that one is around demon prince power.
Hell Generated Abilities:
- Hell Generated Abilities and Summoning: Depending on the
demon/human and their demonic affinities, those with demonic
power can learn to summon powers generated by certain circles of
hell depending on the abilities they can use. Most can learn up
to 4 different abilities, with some higher level demonic
opponents being able to learn more. Usually, only opponents
close to or at demon prince level can learn more than four of
these abilities, and usually they have to be abilities the demon
can use, such as a blood manipulator being able to use boiling
blood. These can help enhance a demonic power user's combat, as
well as granting them access to powerful demonic forces of hell
which can help them create stronger attacks or use demonic
elements specifically spawned in hell. Each of these abilities
comes from a different part of hell, with each having their own
strengths and weaknesses, as well as some having other abilities
that normal elementals don't have, such as cold wind being able
to feed on lust energy. Though just as they have their own
strengths, each has weaknesses, and are counterable by counter
elements and abilities. These are mainly used by demons or demon
hybrids who want to use these to enhance their current
abilities, such as a bat demon using boiling blood to drink
blood and make themselves stronger, or a fire demon using
hellfire generated in hell to try and overpower an opponent.
- 1st Circle Darkness of Despair: This summons the power of
darkness from the 1st circle of hell, where those who are
somewhat virtuous non-believers and pagan's go. The darkness
here is an unholy darkness, which dwells in a cave that souls
wander for eternity desperate to find God. This darkness is a
powerful dark energy mixed with unholy energy, and became the
basis for the unholy darkness power demons use, including being
the inspiration for Belphegor's demonic shadow technique. The
user can use this to create a mist to encase an area in
darkness, or use it to attack opponents. When those come into
contact with this darkness, it infects an opponent, and
increases their fear and despair emotions artificially in a
matter similar to a fear toxin, or it can be used to attack
people using darkness like other darkness techniques. However,
it does have to be done through infecting an opponent with this
attack, and can be purified with holy power. However, if they
are infected, then even the most advanced people with
disciplined mind or other mind resistant powers will have
trouble resisting this power as it is an infection and not a
mind alteration. Some strong willed opponents can still fight
this to a degree though. This darkness can still be countered
with light or holy energy, since it is still darkness.
- 2nd Circle Winds of Lust: This summons the unholy winds of the
2nd circle of hell where souls who live their lives for lust are
violenty thrown around and torn apart by unholy winds. These
winds are not only more powerful than normal winds, but can
actually be used to tear people apart if they are caught in the
wind attack. Though this is dodgable as the wind appears orange
and is clearly not something someone wants to be hit by. This
wind manipulation has the power of demonic energy infused into
it, with this wind being able to be used like typical wind
attacks, from doing things like creating shockwaves, to slashing
waves, and even concentrating certain types of air in order to
do more damage. This is similar to how a normal wind user would
use this ability, except that it also does heavy demonic damage.
For the most part, these air waves can also feed on the power of
lust, growing stronger with more piercing power if they are able
to absorb lust energy. This is very useful for those with lust
manipulation, since this power is designed to take advantage of
those with lustful natures. This is still counterable like
typical wind manipulation, with earth manipulation being the
best counter.
- 3rd Circle Demonic Cold Rain: A very cold rain that comes from
the sin of gluttony. While it doesn't freeze people instantly,
it is cold enough to cause hypothermia very fast when used
effectively. This unholy rain creates a power of water that can
counter powerful fire magic much more effectively than many
other forms of water powers. This allows users to summon this
rain in the form of waves of water. While the user can summon
demonic rain to rain down on people, it is also useful for
creating water attacks, which many will find that it works
pretty well for doing things like creating water blasts which
are powerful enough to bend metal or creating demonic water
attacks in other ways. This water has, as one might expect, a
demonic element which allows it to do demonic water damage,
which can counter holy water. This can be frozen into demonic
ice, but it is actually better to use as water, since hell's
best ice manipulation comes from another circle of hell. This
water manipulation can also be used like holy water, doing
demonic damage to people, with this working well against holy
users and angels. This water is still counterable by it's
natural counters, such as lightning or earth. For the most part,
the effectiveness of this power depends on the user.
- 4th Circle Gold of Greed: In the fourth circle of hell, those
with the sin of greed are to suffer being consumed in a pot of
melted gold. This is a combination of an unholy power and an
earth metal power. This power acts similar to lava, and if it
hardens while on someone, it does powerful unholy earth damage
constantly until the gold is removed from the skin. Those that
dodge this power must be careful not to cool the gold if it hits
their skin as this can cause it to stick to the skin and harden.
This metal is demonic in nature like all of the hell generated
abilities, and has a demonic element to it that does demonic
energy damage. This gold can be used to fight opponents, with
molten gold being able to be used similarly to lava
manipulation. It can also be solidified into weapons, which are
highly conductive, making this great for metal and lightning
users. This gold is also in a molten form, which means that
until it's solidified, it has no ability to conduct electricity
or any magnetic properties, making it immune to lightning
abilities while in molten form. This is a combination of metal
manipulation and heat manipulation, creating a highly molten
gold that is designed to trap and contain opponents within.
Using the aura of greed, the gold is boosted by unholy power.
This gold can be best taking out by water/ice manipulation.
- 5th Circle Murky Swamp: This is for the people who commit the
sin of anger, where they battle in a murky swamp for all
eternity. The user can use this swamp's essence which is a
combination of unholy power, earth powers, and water powers in
order to do unholy damage to opponents. This also works in a
manner similar to mud manipulation and can be used like demonic
water in that splashing opponents with it does unholy energy
damage as well as water and earth damage. This allows users to
use or summon the swamps of this level of hell, where they are
able to either use earth and water to create a swamp-like
atmosphere in a battle, or they can use this to attack
opponents, such as using water attacks or earth attacks to
damage opponents. This power is useful since it is a combination
and can be used either together or invidividually. When used on
a battlefield, the water and mud can be used to generate a
swamp-like environment, where movement is slowed down heavily
thanks to the sludgy water. Opponents will also have a harder
time keeping their breath, due to the heavy humidity which can
weaken those not used to swampy environments. This can be best
countered by wind powers to purify an area and perhaps cold to
freeze the water or muddy area. These powers can can also be
individually countered by wind abilities as the best counter for
both the demonic water and demonic earth.
- 6th Circle Hell's Pit Fire: This lets the user summon and use
powerful hellfire in a fight to battle opponents which comes
from where those who commit heresy are trapped in flaming pits
to burn for eternity. This hellfire burns much hotter than
normal flames, and works in a manner similar to typical
hellfire. This flame is much more powerful though, as it's
summoned directly from hell itself and generated by powerful
demonic energies. This does more demonic burning damage than
typical hellfire, with the demonic energy of hellfire being far
stronger than it normally would be. Of course, as one might
expect, users of this can still use it the same way as hellfire,
being able to do things like creating fireballs, using explosive
attack, and using the flames to melt objects. These flames are
used almost the exact same, except that the demonic energy also
burns people using demonic damage in addition to the flames.
This works great against holy fire, and can counter ice powers
pretty effectively. Of course, as one mighth expect, this is
counterable by anything that counters fire, such as water/ice
and wind abilities.
- 7th Circle Boiling Blood: This lets the user summon unholy
blood from the lake of boiling blood in the 7th circle where
violent souls are sent. The user can manipulate the blood in a
manner similar to normal blood manipulators, letting them either
splash it on people or form shapes or objects out of it. This
power usually works best for those with blood manipulation or
blood devouring, in which they are able to use this to devour
blood or use this to use blood-based techniques using this
blood. When used, this blood is highly corrosive, thanks to the
blood boiling and the demonic energy infused into the blood. The
demonic energy also does damage, burning the skin alongside the
heat generated from the boiling blood. For the most part, most
people with special abilities using blood find this the most
useful, since they rarely have to use their own blood in fights.
Depending on the techniques, this can be a very deadly effect,
as is shown by certain blood manipulators who use some very
dangerous techniques that can be amped with this blood. Of
course, this blood is best countered with water or ice powers
best, or using earth powers to contain the blood where it can't
be used.
- 8th Circle Dark Demon Torturers: This lets the user summon
some of the dark demons from the 8th circle where those who
commit the sin of fraud go. These demons not only have unholy
power and powerful demonic energy, but are also extremely
strong, being able to tear people in half. These demon's sole
purpose is the torture of souls by tearing them into pieces as
they do in the darkness of the 8th circle. These demons can be 3
feet tall, or they can be up to 20 feet tall depending on the
demon. Most of these demons only live for one thing, and that's
for tearing people or souls apart. These demons can not only see
in the dark, but are empowered by darkness attacks as well,
being able to grow stronger in areas of complete darkness. These
demons will tear apart anyone they can get their hands on, with
this being one of the hardest hell generated powers to control
since the demons will do what they want rather than listen to
someone. Only demon summoners or people who know how to control
summoned creatures can fully control these demons, and even
doing so can be difficult. The demons will tear about the
closest people they can get their hands on, with them having a
major hatred for humans due to them being made in God's image
(since most of them hate God for various reasons).
- 9th Circle Ice of Treachery: This lets the user summon ice
from the 9th circle of hell, the part of hell completely frozen
where treacherous people are encased in ice. Satan himself was
trapped in this section of Hell, frozen up to his knees for many
years before he broke free. This power is opposite of hellfire,
and is unholy in nature just like hellfire. This is much colder
than normal ice, causing intense frostbite and rotting damage
from the unholy energy much more quickly than normal unholy ice
powers. This ice can be used just like typical ice to do things
like create freezing attacks, generate ice constructs/weapons,
or being able to freeze things through touch. This ice also has
a powerful special ability, where it is able to feed on those
with treacherous natures, similar to how Satan's wrath flames
can feed on anger. When a treacherous person is encased in this
ice, this ice bonds to them and slowly freezes them completely
as it feed on their treacherous nature. This is very difficult
to break out of, though with proper techniques like hellfire or
something to melt the ice, they can break free from this. When
it comes to ice abilities in hell, this is highly preferred over
the cold rain being turned into ice since this can also engulf
treacherous people.
- The Hell's Cage Static Energy: In the lowest pits of hell,
there is a cage where Lucifer is meant to be imprisoned. Though
Lucifer isn't in the cage currently, it still remains in hell
for only the most high level threats, and gives off a high level
power of power and energy due to it being designed to counter
higher level beings and contain them. In this part of hell, the
amount of static created by the cage's power creates a powerful
unholy energy which the user can summon at any time in a manner
similar to hellfire and the 9th circle ice power. This takes the
form of static electricity and can run through things like
static electricity, even though the power itself is not
lightning. This static energy is extremely powerful, and can do
far more damage by running through opponents, with stronger
opponents taking more damage if they are hit by this lightning.
This static energy also has the special ability of being able to
damage even lightning users, thanks to the energy not being true
lightning/electricity. This particular skill can be run through
people like normal lightning, and has the same properties. This
is usually counterable by using an object to absorb it so it
doesn't touch someone. This particular lightning does more
damage to more powerful enemies, but not as much damage to less
powerful enemies.
- Hell's Cage Hook Chains: This comes from the same area as the
Cage (and all the chains are connected to the chains around the
cage in some way), in which the user can summon powerful unholy
chains with hooks on the end designed to spear opponents and
weaken them. Those who are affected by this are slowly drained
of power as long as they are in physical contact with the chains
with the chains and hooks being of the same material that the
cage is made of. These can only be summoned from a 10 feet
radius of the user, as people can't summon them around an
opponent to simply surround them. If they are ensnared by these
chains, then the user can also summon the Cage's Lightning (if
the user can do it) as well to do extra damage to opponents.
These hooks are designed to not only spear people with the
hooks, but is designed so that the hooks can trap and be used to
contain if the user can get someone trapped in enough of these.
When created, these must come from a source, like ground or
objects, and cannot simply appear in the air due to needing a
solid place to form a link to the part of hell this resides.
These chains cannot be seperated from the cage, and if the
portals to hell close, the draw the chains back to hell
forcefully, which means that this cannot be used to contain
people for too long, and cannot be used to drag people to hell
on it's own due to the portals only being big enough for the
chains and hooks and not for people to be dragged through.
Weapons: - Archangel Blade: Archangel blades are far stronger
than normal angel blades, which are designed to kill high level
opponents, including those immune to normal angel blades. These
blades are slightly longer than normal angel blades, and shaped
different as they are designed in a twisted blade. When stabbed,
the twisted blade does more damage, making the wound much harder
to close. When wielded by an archangel, or someone with
archangel power, these blades can kill archangels and demon
princes, and can kill creatures that normally wouldn't take too
much damage from archangel blades, including Sariel and Lucifer
(Even though no one knows if Sariel would be able to die to an
archangel blade). For most archangels, this is a fairly simple
blade, just being a standard archangel blade and not like some
angels who reforge their weapons into different types of
weapons. This weapon, when wielded by an archangel, negates
regeneration for a short time after being stabbed by it, similar
to varanium, but because of the weapon's power, there is no
developing immunity to this negation. The only way to not get
regeneration negated by it is by not getting hit by it.
Archangel blades can also kill demons and angels without killing
the host, as the damage is only done to the thing possessing
them, and works to kill demons and angels without needing to
kill the host like normal angel blades.
Combat Abilities:
- Fighting Styles/Combat Training: Having lived longer than
man-kind, most demons have a multitude of combat experience.
Some have learned basic combat training, though most usually
have styles they have learned from their time among humans, and
depending on the demon and where they spend their time, many
have learned different styles of combat. Depending on the demon,
some may even have multiple fighting styles they've learned over
the years. Many demons tend to be very skilled in combat, having
had a very long time to learn and even master combat styles.
Depending on the demon, they could have any style they've picked
up from ancient martial arts to modern martial arts, to ancient
soldier training and modern military combat training. Depending
on where they've been and what they've learned, there are many
styles out there to choose from, with most demons usually having
a unique mix of skills, and some even having their own combat
styles. Demons typically also pick up fighting styles from
vessels they've had, as they are able to learn through their
vessels. However, each style usually has it's own weaknesses and
strengths with some focusing on certain techniques and some
focusing on certain stats and abilities. This not only includes
combat styles, but also might include weapon styles for those
that use specific weapons.
- Supernatural Hunter Training/Hunting Experience: Having been
around since early creation and having fought many battles over
the years, most demons are skilled supernatural hunters who know
easily how to fight most types of supernaturals in the world.
Most demons know the strengths and weaknesses of many kinds of
supernaturals, including some like time lords that are more rare
depending on the demon's individual experiences. Most demons are
skilled opponents to face by any race, and knows how to take
down most supernaturals thanks to their experience. Any
supernaturals a demon doesn't know about, they can usually find
information through the demonic libary in hell as needed since
they can still talk to other demons who have gained knowledge.
Since most demons are typically very smart beings and have a lot
of experience to teach them how to handle many types of
situations, they are able to often come up with solutions to
most problems if they encounter a supernatural with an ability
they can't counter. Though demons don't know everything about
supernaturals, they usually know a lot about the supernaturals
they fight, even though there are plenty they don't know, just
like many other fighters since the universe is filled with many
unknown races and beings. While they can handle things like
angels and fallen angels more easily due to experience fighting
them, usually primordial creatures like the The'Galin are
typically outside of the knowledge of demons, usually requiring
someone else to give them information on these creatures. Demons
usually use this to fight angels and fallen angels, since they
are typically the main enemies of them, except in certain cases
like the The'Galin that make Heaven and Hell work together to
avoid the universe being unmade.
- Tracking and Hunting Expert: This is another thing that comes
with experience in being a supernatural hunter, in which many
people trained as supernatural hunters learn how to track and
hunt supernaturals who are threats, often learning the best ways
to track down their opponents as well as how supernatural
hunters may track them if they ever find themselves on the wrong
end of a supernatural hunter (in the case of supernaturals).
Those trained in this learn very subtle things from their
training, like telling whether a foot print is their target or
not by things like the shape of the boot and how deep the
boot-print is, with some being advanced trackers that are able
to identify people by boot prints, as well as also being able to
tell where opponents go thanks to things like walking on plants,
and animals that are unusually silent in a direction. Some even
have a sense of when opponents are near, and can often gain a
sense of where their opponents are going while tracking them. Of
course, with a supernatural senses, this becomes even more
effective as those with enhanced senses can do things like find
traces of body heat, traces of presences, or even just telling
what's around them more easily with special senses.
- Supernatural Exorcism, Weakness and Trap Training: Of course,
every supernatural hunter has to learn how to do things like
exorcisms, and use traps for certain types of races. From their
training as well as their experience, demons were trained
heavily in how to trap and contain supernaturals mostly through
Enochian knowledge and spells/sigils of demonic design. They are
taught things like how to draw angel traps, how to build traps
for other supernaturals, or how to lure out supernaturals if
they try to hide. They are also taught all manners of exorcisms,
from exorcising demons, to using Enochian sigils to cast out
angels and fallen angels, and sometimes how to trap enemy
demons. Of course, as many demons have had plenty of practice
and experience, they also eventually developed experience with
it over time, and can learn new ways to take on supernaturals
thanks to experimentation with their abilities and knowing how
to combine certain exorcisms and abilities. Depending on what's
available, some demons can come up with new ways to take on
supernaturals, and this works even better when paired with their
exorcism abilities, in which they often use a combination of
exorcism and combat when taking on things like angels.
- Master Torture and Interrogation Expert: During a demon's time
in hell, most demons end up having to learn how to interrogate
thanks to certain situations that may require it, like
interrogating a human to find something the demon wants or is
sent to obtain. Over time, demons can became master
interrogators with practice, and can become great at using words
to overcome their opponent's wills when not using their mind
manipulation. Many have even gotten really good at knowing how
to torture some enemies, and usually knows how to get under
their skin through torture or through words. Some demons even
make torture their hobby, since hell is a place of eternal
torment. Most demons tend to use whatever strategy works best
for certain scenarios, such as using force against tougher
supernaturals or opponents, or reasoning with people who seem
scared of them (though whether or not they're honorable or
underhanded depends on the demon). Most demons are great at
playing games of intimidation, and their training will often
leave them with a knack for figuring out their opponents. They
may even know when it's best to make deals with certain
opponents, depending on the circumstances and if they're
honorable enough to keep their deals. For the most part, most
demons are very skilled at making people fear them, doing
whatever it takes to get their job done, and this is something
they have had to do as much as one might expect of demonic
nature. Those that know demons would expect nothing less of a
demon.
- Stealth and Infiltration Expert: Most wouldn't think it, but
demons can be very stealthy when they want to be. This
especially applies to those that hide among humans. Most demons
can be very stealthy beings, being very skilled in avoiding
encounters when they want to, or manipulating a group to hide in
so that they can avoid certain kinds of attention. Unlike some
demons who kill everyone who is in their way, smarter demons
know how to avoid battles, usually as a way to avoid possible
angelic encounters as angels will often appear to stop demons if
they sense a demon. From disguising as humans, and misdirecting
opponents, most demons are very skilled infiltrators, and even
better when paired with a demon's shapeshifting ability. This
has made demons great at hiding in plain sight, whether it's as
a normal human they've possessed, or as something else like
taking the form of a rat to hide and move their way through an
area to avoid other supernaturals. Depending on the demon, some
are smarter about this than others, but many have had to learn
this in some aspect, as most demons know that to survive, they
have to do whatever they need to do, and often times this means
knowing how to blend into a crowd. Most don't go around sneaking
into places and stealing things, but their stealth is more about
blending into groups, and passing as normal people rather than
just trying to sneak around. Most smarter demons who have lived
longer, especially those that don't start out as strong demons,
are usually the implementors of this, and this makes most demons
that hide among humans far more dangerous when people have
trouble finding the demon among crowds of people. Some can even
hide among supernaturals.
Passive Abilities:
- Demon/Demon Lord/Demon Prince Regeneration: Just like angels
and fallen angels, demons also have powerful regeneration.
Depending on the level of demon, most demons have some form of
regeneration, combined with demon hardskin defense to allow
demons to fix their defense and regeneration where they choose,
similar to the angels and fallen angels. Demons, like angels,
are extremely difficult to kill, and can only really be killed
by certain kinds of weapons like demon killer knives, angel
blades, and special holy weapons. Almost all demons have varying
levels of regeneration, with higher ranked demons having
stronger regeneration if they are more powerful demons (like
hell knights who have much stronger regeneration than normal
demons or even demon lords). While demons are still able to be
killed, it is much harder to kill them than most other beings,
and most demons can regenerate even if they are reduced to a
bloody puddle as long as it's not from something that will
negate their regeneration. However, it is worth noting that the
more injuries they suffer and the worse the injuries, the longer
it might take them to regenerate. The other problem with their
regeneration is that some hunters have learned they can cut
demons into pieces and bury all the pieces so they cannot
regenerate. Demons still take damage like normal beings, with
the only real difference between them and other supernatural
beings being the fact that demons can regenerate things like
their heart and brain, whereas most other beings cannot.
- Demon/Demon Lord/Demon Prince Hardskin Defense: Like angels,
demons also have developed a type of defense using their unholy
auras, in which some demons have developed a harder skin using
their demonic auras, and have made their skin much harder to
pierce in combat in response to angelic hardskin defense.
Typically this comes alongside their regeneration, in which
demons can focus some of their regenerative power into this to
strengthen their defense. The question mostly becomes which
skill do the demons want more, as some prefer regeneration, but
some prefer not taking the damage at all. Typically, this
defense, at its fullest, can defend against normal bullets, and
some higher level bullets, with some showing that toughening the
body can be just as useful in a fight as regenerating injuries.
The main issue with this is that, in order to use it, one must
sacrifice some regenerative ability in order to generate the
power form this, since this power has to come from a source.
Typically demons have a choice of either one or the other, or
weakening both to get a little of both skills. This depends on
the demon, as some may prefer one over the other. At full
strength, some demons and demon lords have often been seen as
nearly indestructible by weaker opponents (even though they are
just harder to damage). Typically, higher level demons like
demon lords and demon prince level demons have more power they
can put into this, but this does still require putting in some
of their regenerative power. When at full strength, demons are
only able to regenerate basic injuries and cannot regenerate
fatal wounds easily (though they still can). This can, however,
be more easily pierced by demonic or darkness power, since this
power runs on an demon's unholy presence/aura. Certain weapons
can even ignore this defense entirely, such as angel blades
being able to instantly break this ability, and celestial
weapons can more easily break this skill as well. This mostly
has the same effects, rules and weaknesses as the angelic
hardskin defense, as it's basically the same power used by
angels.
- Demonic Immunity to Demonic Effects: Demons are completely
immune to the demonic effects of their power. Usually, demons
cover a wider variety of abilities, but overall, demons are
typically immune to unholy side effects of demon power, such as
demon energy poisoning, or the demonic effects of corruption to
remove holy afflictions placed on them. While they can still
take damage from demonic attacks, such as concussive force or
slashing waves, extra demonic effects don't really hurt them,
and demonic energy isn't as effective against them. The main
thing to note with this though is that it doesn't grant specific
immunities to certain demon elements depending on what the demon
can do, such as a fire demon could still be hurt by demonic ice,
but not take extra damage from the demon element (only taking
damage from the ice element). Typically, unholy afflicts are
more effective on angels, and sometimes fallen angels, while
holy afflictions are the main method of hurting a demon. While
they are mostly immune to demonic effects, they are not immune
to fallen angel's corrupted powers, and they are not immune to
an angel's holy power (angelic power tends to act as the
opposite of demon power and can still hurt them). However,
unlike angels, demons are more varied, and some demons may take
specific damage from certain other demonic abilities depending
on the ability, such as demons may take damage from mixed holy
and unholy energy (like certain nephalem who can combine the two
into a unique energy), and may take damage from certain demonic
abilities that might be unique (such as a demon who might have a
corrupted demonic energy power being able to hurt other demons).
- Demon Blood Drinking/Demon Blood Enhancement (All demons): It
is worth noting that demon blood is demonically charged, in
which demons have extremely strong blood. This is something that
can not only have an effect on increasing a demon's power
passively, but can be strengthened by drinking the blood of
other demons. If a demon is seeking more power, they are able to
drink demon blood of others in order to power themselves up,
similar to how vampires can power up using supernatural blood.
In addition to gaining enhanced abilities through demon blood,
demons can also gain new powers in this way, where demons can
gain new abilities from other demons by drinking enough of their
blood. This method is typically taboo among demons however, as
demons don't like it when other demons turn on their own, but
this is a passive ability that demons can rely on if they so
choose. When used, demon blood is a good amplifier of power, in
which demons can gain temporary boosts, and sometimes permanent
boosts to their power the more they drink. However, the main
downside to this is that demons will eventually get addicted to
demon blood after a while, and lose power if they don't drink
demon blood (sort of like a withdrawal symptom), and some demons
have actually become cannibals. It is worth noting that the
increase can continually increase a demon's power, but as they
get stronger, this ability starts to lose it's effectiveness,
similar to how medicines become less effective over time, and is
mostly just for demons who want to temporarily increase their
power and abilities, or steal a new skill from another demon.
- Sin/Negative Emotion Empowerment: Almost all demons are able
to gain empowerment off of at least one type of sin or negative
emotion. The general one for most is fear, anger and/or hatred,
which most demons default to as the main emotion they draw from.
And since demons tend to cause fear in others, usually fear is
their first choice. Those that use this are able to gain
empowerment through sin or negative emotion depending on what
their affinities for. Once a demon reaches a high enough level,
they are even able to influence this emotion in others, with the
demon princes being the best example of this where they are
basically incarnations of sin that focus the power of sin to
influence others and absorb specific sins generated by others.
This ability may also come with other benefits, as some special
abilities can be used in combination with this, such as succubus
demons having special abilities to use with their lust
manipulation. Again, the demon princes are a good example of
this, such as Mammon's gold manipulation being an extension of
his greed power, and Belphegor's sloth absorption enhancing his
mind as he sleeps. This depends mostly on the demon and their
abilities, as each demon is different, and depending on the
demon, some have very different uses for this. This is usually a
passive skill, with exception to any supernatural abilities
focused around manipulation of sin and negative emotions.
- Demon Blood Communication Network/Demon Telepathy: Similar to
angel radio, demons have their own methods of communication. For
the most part, many demons communicate with each other by
telepathy, similar to the angels who use telepathy to interact
with each other and hear prayers. However, demons are more just
simple telepathy where they use it to communicate with one
another, rather than having a "network" like angels do. Demon
telepathy doesn't work through prayers like one would think,
since demons don't get prayers typically and demons tend to rely
more on summoning and magic spells to communicate rather than
using telepathy, since their telepathy usually has to know where
someone is to use it. However, demons can communicate and summon
each other through a specific blood spell that they use to send
messages to each other, essentially letting them phone each
other through this spell. This spell can also be used to summon
demons using blood, and works usually alongside a chant and a
blood offering, which is often used even by those that aren't
demons who try to summon Lucifer and Satan or other demons
depending on the demon they're trying to communicate with. This
can be set up as a private communication or to groups of demons
depending on what the demon wants to do. Unlike angel radio,
which others have managed to tune to with certain spells, demon
blood communication is essentially a private communication, but
the downside to this is that the demon blood communication
cannot be used except through preparation or spells to focus on
who they want to talk to, meaning this cannot be used in battle
to call for help usually like angel radio can be used to call
for allies.
- Demon Mimicry/Mortal Reading: Like angels, demons have a
natural affinity for mimicking others, in which they can do
things like mimicking someone's actions exactly. Their mimicry
is so complete that they are even able to copy the voices of
others, such as mimicking the voice of someone to lure an enemy
into a trap, or mimicking someone's actions to each muscle
movement. This typically goes along with their ability to read
mortals, in which demons are able to read a mortal's body
language usually fairly easily. The biggest use for this is that
most demons can tell when someone is lying, in which they can
tell by reading the person's body whether or not the person
believes they are telling the truth. While this doesn't help
against those that can suppress their unconscious minds signs at
lying (like the Darkfires and Hazeldines can), it does help
demons more easily read almost anyone that they can read. When
combining these two abilities together, it shows that the demons
have a high ability to read someone, as well as mimic their
movements and can even copy certain combat styles by watching
people fight. Typically, this can help in a fight, since they
can more easily learn how certain combat styles work. However,
some beings might not be as easy to mimic, specifically those
that have specific powers that prevent themselves from being
mimicked, and some have abilities that prevent them from being
read by other beings. Demons also can use their shapeshifting to
in combination with this to mimic others, in which they learn to
disguise themselves as mortals, and most never figure out they
are demons unless the demon wants them to, or the demon just
doesn't care about hiding.
- Demonic Cosmic Awareness: Most demons, like angels, are
powerful enough that they are aware of most things going on in
the known universe, as long as it's something the demons have
knowledge of. Demons typically have a pretty good understanding
of much of the forces of the universe, including those many
people wouldn't think would be important, though usually demon
princes are the main ones to keep track of the forces of the
universe, since most demons just follow orders and higher level
demons are the ones that have to plan for anything that might
come. On top of that, many higher level demons have such an
awareness of the universe that they can detect changes in space
and time, in which some demons can tell when someone is time
traveling and changing time, or tell when someone is teleporting
if they can track the teleportation (though usually only higher
level demons can do this). For the most part, demons are like
angels in that demons have most of the angel's same natures that
make them able to take on most threats in the known universe,
and aside from things like primordial beings, they typically
have knowledge of most things going on, including knowing things
like when portals to alternate dimensions have been created as
well. However, there is a limit to this, as certain types of
creatures are not always known or demons might not have
awareness of the entire universe. One such example is that
demons typically don't have any cosmic knowledge of primordial
beings, with one example being the The'Galin (though many angels
and demons do now know about them due to the war being fought).
However, it is worth noting that their knowledge only goes so
far, just like angels and fallen angels. Usually, normal demons
have a vague awareness of most of the major events in their
given world, but usually only higher level demons have the
ability to see certain things, like time traveling or sensing
alternate dimension portals, though this doesn't mean normal
demons aren't able to sense dangerous threats as they appear
like angels can
- Weapon Teleport/Connection: Unlike angels who usually use
intangible storage of their weapons, demons typically rely on
connecting their weapons to themselves, and being able to
teleport their weapon to them at any time, similar to certain
supernaturals who developed the ability to attach items to
themselves. Thanks to this originally being a demon ability,
demons are also able to do this. There are a few different ways
to do this, such as storing a weapon in one's soul, in which the
weapon becomes a part of them permanently, allowing them to
summon and desummon their weapon at will, and even control it.
There is also those that have a special connection with their
weapons, where they simply just develop a connection and then
are able to summon that weapon at any time to them, using that
connections. Some arts even allow stat boosts for a demon and
their weapon when used together, which works even better with
intelligent weapons. Typically, angels tend to use intangible
methods to store their weapons out of phase with reality, but
demons mostly just focus on making sure their weapon can be
summoned to them at any time, and make it so that they don't
need to keep the weapon with them as they can summon it no
matter where it is if they are connected to it. This has it's
uses compared to the angel method, such as one being able to get
a hold of the weapon if it's kept somewhere, but most demons can
still summon the weapon even if it's stolen from them if they
are connected to it.
- Demonic Enhanced Senses: Depending on the demons, most demons
have highly enhanced senses. Most are able to do things like
seeing things from very far away, or hearing a conversation
going on a block away. They also have a strong enough sense of
smell that they can tell who people are just by the scent they
give off, and can even smell someone's DNA through scent alone.
Thanks to this, demons have very strong senses, and are on par
with almost any supernatural's senses. Each demon has their own
balance of senses, with some having lesser senses and other
stronger senses, usually depending on the demon and what type of
demon they are. Typically, most demons do have very strong
senses, which can also be a weakness to a degree, since enhanced
senses can be taken advantage of, such as taking advantage of a
strong sense of smell by using a strong smell to overwhelm them.
This does depend on the demon, as some don't have as enhanced
senses, but those that do can be very difficult to avoid. Some
can even gain unique senses, such as fire users gaining a
thermal sense, or a lightning user being able to sense
electrical signals around them, mostly depending on the skills
and how the demon uses them. Some even gain animal-like senses,
such as bat demons who gain a sonar sense.
- Demonic Sixth Sense: Much like vampires and other
supernaturals, demons can sense the presence of other beings,
and sensing who and what they are. This can sense not only one's
presence, but their levels of energy and how tough they are,
allowing the user to gauge how they stand against them, as well
as often being able to tell what they are by their presence if
the user recognizes what kind of presence it is. However, this
can be deceived by skilled opponents, sometimes not appearing
correctly if the user can't sense the opponent's full power or
use powers that fool this sense. There are also skills that hide
one's presence so those with this sense can't sense them, or
some opponents can suppress their presence so they're not fully
able to be sensed. While this isn't always the best judge of
someone's abilities, it can provide a slight insight to help the
user as to what they face or what's around them. Most beings can
be sensed, and to an extent, even the world around them can be
sensed, such as objects and other life around them like plants
and animals. Depending on the senses, this might also tune into
other senses, such as ki users being able to sense ki all around
them (though most demons just have a basic sixth sense.)
- Demonic Will: All demons have a resistance to mind alterations
and other powers that influence the mind thanks to their design
and twisting of their natures (whether angel or human
originally). When the demons were "born", they had more unique
minds than angels did (as angels came "preprogrammed" by God).
As such, they have resistance to powers that might intefere with
their minds after learning to focus their minds and prevent
opponents from influencing them since most demons have to learn
this in order to be able to manipulate other minds. As a result,
most abilities that affect the mind don't work well on demons,
though some stronger abilities do still work but to a reduced
effect. Demons have even gotten good at rewritting their own
minds through suggestion, so that they can more effectively
avoid things like psychics and control their minds like certain
other supernaturals like the Darkfires and Hazeldines. Demons
are typically immune to most forms of mind manipulation, and can
even shut down certain aspects of their mind when needed in
order to keep certain things from affecting them.
- Demonic Demon/Demon Lord/Demon Prince Enhanced Physical Stats:
All demons, whether human or angel, are all trained and are
highly enhanced warriors designed specifically for battle. For
the most part, all demons have highly enhanced physical stats in
some way. Each demon typically has different abilities, with
each demon being different in their physical combat depending on
how they train and what kind of demon they are, such as wolf
demons being more agile and speedy than strength-based. This
depends not only on the demon specifically, but also depends on
their training and how they train their physical stats. Some may
focus on strength, some on defense, or some on speed. This is
usually specific to each demon, with higher level demons usually
even having higher physical stats than normal demons due to
being among the tougher members of hell. Demons are usually very
tough opponents, and most typically have stats that let them
compete with a lot of higher level supernaturals, whether they
are normal demon, hell knight, demon lord or even demon prince.
As such, it's hard to predict the individual stats of every
demon, but one typical rule is that demons usually either focus
one to three stats specifically, or they may focus all their
stats evenly. If they focus one to three stats specifically,
other stats not trained are typically not as high with certain
exceptions. And when a demon focuses all their stats evenly,
they typically have lesser stats, but all their stats are
usually fairly even. Again, this does depend on the demon and
their own preferences, as well as the type of demon since
natural ability of the demons factors in as well.
User Abilities:
- Soul Reading: The user can perceive and read the souls,
whether free (i.e. dead, astral projection, etc) or in body.
They can study and observe the nature of one's soul and find
weaknesses based on the nature of the observed souls. By reading
souls, the user can see/feel the being's characteristics,
personality, feelings, memories, whether they even have a soul,
damage others' souls have endured, and whether or not another
entity is possessing or influencing the person on a spiritual
level.
- Emotional Affinity: Users become stronger, faster, more
durable, etc. by emotions of oneself and others, possibly
unlocking abilities related to the affinity and enhancing the
existing powers. Some users may be able draw sustenance from the
emotions or even slow or stop aging.
- Pensikinesis:User can control the thoughts of others; they can
make others think what they want, control thinking processes,
cause the loss of their line of thought inducing confusion, or
completely shut thinking processes.
- Omnilingualism: User can speak, write, understand and
communicate in any language, including computer codes, languages
they have never been heard before, sign language (even
lip-reading), illegible words, and backwards speech and writing
with little or no training. The user may even communicate with
non-human animals or read body language. This ability works by
any one or more of three faculties.
- Environmental manipulation: User can create, shape and
manipulate the environment, whether natural or artificial, and
everything in it, including all the aspects of the environment,
from the purely physical ones and mythical/conceptual ones.
- Disaster Manipulation: User can create and manipulate all
forms of natural disasters, including avalanches, earthquakes,
volcanic eruptions, hydrological disasters, meteorological
disasters, wildfires, health disasters, space disasters, etc.
- Weather Negation: User can negate any/all weather effects and
Weather, nullifying hurricanes, thunderstorms, typhoons, and
blizzards or even sunny days, clear skies etc.
- Atmogenesis: The user can generate different aspects of the
weather, such as Ice, Heat, Lightning, etc.
- Divine Weather Manipulation: The user can assert control over
all forms of weather available to divine entities or forces and
utilize them in a variety of ways. The user can dominate
atmospheric patterns which span over planets at a time and
induce powerful forms of weather phenomenon. The user can also
manipulate cosmic weather phenomenon, allowing them to assert
their influence over patterns beyond that of those limited to
planetary atmospheres.
- Empathic Weather manipulation: The weather is tied to the
user's emotions. (i.e, clear and sunny when happy, stormy when
angered, raining when sad) This power can be dangerous if the
user is not careful with handling their feelings.
- Afterlife Manipulation: The user can control the afterlife.
This includes places such as Heaven, Hell, purgatory, the
Underworld and other places that could be considered the
afterlife. The user can manipulate afterlife places and
everything in them to their liking.
Applications:
Afterlife Border
Afterlife Connecting
Afterlife Creation
Afterlife Marking
Afterlife Messaging
Afterlife Prevention
Afterlife Transport
Afterlife Traversal
Abyssal Abilities:
- Domain of Void: Muriel has authority and duty over the abyss,
the realm where the souls of certain entities go into an eternal
void to endure absolute isolation from everything in existence.
Some would call this a fate worse then even Hell itself, as
souls are forever doomed to wallow alone without love or peace,
forever losing bits and pieces of who they are into eternal
darkness until they become nothing
- Abyssal Energy: Being granted guardianship over the piece of
the Empty connected to her universe allows Muriel to pull upon
energy from the Abyss as well as those locked away in it. She
can use this energy to strengthen both herself and certain
weapons she carries.
- Reality Warping: As an application of the Energy use Muriel
can create “something out of nothing” essentially. She can
create beings, rebuild vessels, and all other manner of things.
The only downside is unlike the ones made by the Empty itself,
her major creations often dissipate after some manner of time
usually between a few hours to a couple of days.
- Temporary Resurrection: Muriel can temporarily pull beings and
creatures from their stasis within the Abyss back to the real
world.
- Shapeshifting: Muriel was taught to shapeshift by the shadow
within the Abyss itself. Similar to the way in which she can
call on the Abyssal Energy to enhance her abilities, Muriel can
pull from the Abyss itself to change her appearance at will.
- Afterlife Teleportation: Because of the Abysses connection to
the Empty, Muriel can teleport anywhere within the afterlife.
However, this ability has been a bit limited since the Gate’s
closed and locked them on Earth.
-Portal Creation: Another ability taught to Muriel by the shadow
was how to create portals through the Empty. This is often how
she travels between dimensions or sends people places. However,
like teleporting, her ability to get to her own Dimensions
Heaven and Hell are currently hindered.
- Cosmic Awareness: Due to the Empty being connected to various
universes and dimensions as well as it dating back to
pre-creation, Muriel has some knowledge of Primordial Entities
as well as the universe before creation of most known worlds.
She also often knows events and people and places even those of
some other dimensions. However, her knowledge isn’t infalliable
or perfect. Outside of historical facts, it can been subject to
the whims of change.
Abyssal Entity Manipulation: Muriel can call upon the monstrous
entities, such as the locusts, that reside within the Abyss. She
can also help create new Abyssal beings as well as destroy
certain old ones if the need comes around.
Insanity Inducement: The absolute lack of life and pure
stillness of the void itself can be mentally taxing on any being
to the point that it can break them. Muriel can induce a very
similar effect on beings outside the void to break them or bend
them to her will.
Barbas’ Training:
- Fear Projection: The ability to sense and read the fears of
other beings and use it against them. This power is usually
unique to the demon Barbas though he can teach it to others.
- Fear Illusions: Muriel, as taught by Barbas, can also create
realistic illusions base on a person's fears. The illusions may
be limited to visible manifestations that affect only sight, or
affect all the five senses so that they cannot be distinguished
from reality. It is usually employed when attacking people
within a group, presumably because he must attack them
individually because each person’s fear is different. However,
it is just as effective as projecting someone's fear it into
reality, because the victim will think the illusions are real.
- Tracking: A person trained in this ability can track and find
people based on their fears as nobody’s fears are the same
despite how many people are alive.
Mental Manipulation: The ability to project as an inner voice to
others, implanting incredibly strong suggestions into their
minds, subtly bending them to one's will. Barbas commonly
combines his use of this power with Astral projection.
Astral Projection: the ability to project one's consciousness
into an astral form outside the body. When a person astral
projects, their physical body falls to the floor, slumps over or
remains still until they return. While in "astral mode", powers
are dormant. However, some advanced users have mastered the
skill to use their powers whilst astral projecting.
- Charmspeaking: A person trained in this can compel people by
speaking, the victims are unable to disobey; the seemingly
cogent commandment is far too compelling. At a high level, users
can persuade people into hurting/killing themselves or even flip
around sense of logic, but can never cause victims to achieve
what they are not capable of.
- Fear Absorption: A person can can fully or partially absorb
emotions, in this case Fear, while removing it from the source,
into their body and use it in various ways, gaining some form of
advantage, either by enhancing themselves, gaining the drained
power, using it as power source etc., either temporarily or
permanently.
- Suggestive Telepathy: A trained user can implant thoughts or
ideas into a subject's subconscious making the subject think
that those were their own thoughts. One can keep on giving
commands to the subject until they obey them.
Transformations: - High Level Demon Form: Typically demons do
not use their full demon form on earth, mostly because the world
suffers if they are in their demon form for too long. Some are
more spiritual than others, but typically, these forms are the
demon's true forms that they usually only take in Hell. However,
most demons can use these forms in a limited capacity on earth,
where they can release their full demonic power during a battle
through some means of demonic enhancement. However, this is
something to be used sparingly, since stronger demon powers
typically are dangerous to use on earth, especially around
mortals who can't handle their enhanced presences. It is also
worth noting that many demon princes might typically are locked
in how much of their power they can use on earth (like Lucifer
and King Satan), since the demon princes are typically much more
powerful than the living world can usually handle. As such, many
demons are limited in how much power they can release when on
earth, with many stronger demons having to simply rely on their
normal forms if they can't release their full power or simple
enhancements like demon energy enhanced modes that just provide
a small boost. However, typically, stronger demons that can't
use their full form on earth usually are stronger in their base
form as a result, and some like Lucifer and King Satan are not
able to use their true forms on earth, but they are usually as
strong as they can be on earth due to being so powerful (meaning
that they can keep up with transformed beings even though they
can't use their transformation on earth). This usually depends
on the demon, as some demons might gain additional stats and
powers when using their true forms, since some demons suppress
certain abilities when in the mortal world.
Weaknesses: When an angel is turned demon, depending on how much
of the angel's power is left in the demon after turning, some
demons retain their angelic power to a small degree. This is
both useful and hurtful, as it means that angelic weaknesses can
also be used to trap and/or kill them depending on the level of
demon they become. A good example of this is Asmodeus, who is
essentially a demon/angel mix of power similar to a nephalem and
both angelic and demonic wards can be used against him. While
this doesn't bother most angels turned demon, this can be a
problem against some more powerful wards and exorcisms, as they
might affect the demon as well, assuming that they are used
against the demon. Most demons aren't too worried about this,
but this can be a problem, and makes killing them a bit easier
when someone can use similar methods to killing an angel.
Because of this, most angels may try to keep secret their
angelic power and natures, as well as keeping secret if they
have angelic power left in them. Most angels who turn demon lose
almost all of their angel or fallen angel abilities, though a
few like Lucifer and Asmodeus have actually retained some of
their angelic power. This also might work against those
angel-turned demons if their angelic power lingers, because
forceful demon possession might not be possible, since
angel-turned demons may be required to use angelic possession
instead of demonic possession.
- Just as holy opponents take more damage from demonic energy,
so too do all demons take increased damage from holy abilities
(unless they have specific holy abilities such as angel
abilities). For the most part, demons are able to be killed
depending on their demonic regeneration, with demon killer
weapons being able to bypass their regeneration and halt their
demonic regeneration for a short time. The two main things are
demon killer knives, which are made with special runes (though
demon killer knives don't permanently kill demon princes and
hell knights), and angel blades, which are designed to kill
demons (These also may not kill hell knights or demon princes on
their own). Other demon killing weapons exist, with many having
their own methods for killing demons. Other things like death
scythes, varanium weapons, or other weapons designed for killing
a variety of creatures often also work if they are also tuned to
killing demons. Though weapons like death scythes or varanium
weapons don't have to be tuned since they work on most
supernatural creatures. Typically, holy weapons are the most
effect items to use on demons since demons typically take more
damage from holy abilities.
- Burning holy oil, holy water and salt works against demons as
well, doing extra damage. Burning holy oil does extra damage to
them just as it does to angels, though it doesn't have the same
casting effect it does on angels when they are engulfed in it.
Instead, the burning holy oil just does heavy holy damage to
their bodies, even if they are fire users due to the immense
holy power of holy oil that can even stop angels in their
tracks. Some weaker demons can even be completely incinerated by
burning holy oil if they are not careful. Holy water also works,
with it being something that can stop or slow a demon pretty
effectively. Holy water does extra damage, and weapons coated in
holy water can stun a demon if they are hit with it. Salt also
works, being a way to counter demons as a spirit. Usually, salt
works the same way as holy water, where weapons coated in it or
salt itself can do extra damage to a demon, or even stun it.
Blessed salt works even better and does more damage if one has
it, but normal pure salt will work as well. Some demons can even
be trapped in a salt ring if it makes a ring around them.
- Demon wards, and demon traps are specific abilities designed
to counter demons. Demonic wards are able to keep demons out of
an area until they find a way to break the wards, often allowing
time to prepare a counter attack. Wards can also be used to cast
out demons, such as paper wards that can send a demon somewhere
random. There are also demon traps, which need only be drawn on
the ground in order to trap a demon once they step into the
circle. As long as the demon doesn't break out of, such as Hell
Knights being able to shake the ground to break the ground, the
spell circle will hold until the demon finds a way to get rid of
the trap circle. These trap circles have to maintain their shape
and form though, as the circle won't be effective once it is
broken. In addition to this there are other wards and traps that
can be used depending on the lore or origin, as many have
contended with demons over the years and developed their own
methods.
- Another way to counter demons are Enochian chants and exorcism
spells. There are a number of Enochian chants and spells that
can send a demon back to hell for a time, usually for up to a
week before they are able to return. These chants are all based
on the spoken words, which exorcise the demon, being able to
cast them out of an area. These exorcisms work fairly well, with
the only real downside being that the demon is easily able to
return to the living world after a time usually up to a week.
Usually this is best used for those that defy the rulers of hell
to send them back to the rulers of hell, usually for punishment.
These exorcisms also work better when accompanied by salt or
holy water, which weaken the demon's resistance to the chant.
However, some spoken exorcisms are quite lengthy, and if the
demon realizes what's going on, the demon needs only keep
someone from talking to prevent the chant since this doesn't
interrupt their powers. Typically demons who possess people are
more vulnerable to exorcisms than those that shapeshift.
Weapon:
~Eden’s Hand: A heavy, black sword that has glowing blue runes
etched in along the top portion of blade. Done by mages
centuries ago each of the first four runes are keyed to
different energies that Muriel can imbibe into the blade: Holy,
demonic, Abyssal, and Elemental. The fifth and sixth rune when
activated can rend and absorb an enemy’s soul if they leave
themselves vulnerable though it can only be activated once per
moon cycle. The last rune has never been witnessed in use though
rumor says it links to the sleeping locust plague locked away in
the abyss.
~Archangel Blade
~Demon Blade
Personality: This Muriel almost lacks the empathy found in her
other universe counterparts. She cares for very few people past
a surface level and even then most of those she does care for
are often kept around because they’re useful. She’s clever and
determined doing whatever she must to further her goals of
taking Hell for herself once she can get past the gate. In most
cases it makes her a brilliant strategist and a worthwhile ally
to keep around, but occasionally her impulses get the better of
her. Muriel also has what most people would call a dark and
sick sense of humor. Which when combined with a volatile anger
connected to a short fuse, means most people like to steer clear
of her.
