Blessings

Blessings are powers given to humans and angels by Yahweh upon their birth. They fall into certain categories but are usually unique to each person.
== Description ==
Blessings are abilities that allow for someone to do things that they normally can not. For example, the blessing Flight can allow one to fly in the air when normally it would not be possible. Despite this, blessing are fine tuned for each individual. One person might require spending stamina to use their flight, while another might not. The maximum flying speed, its start up, and the type of flying can all vary from person to person. There are only two certainties. First, every human and angel has a blessing, of which they are born knowing everything about it. Second, there can only be one blessing per person by default. There are two types of blessings: Common and Divine.
Common Blessings are the blessings given to humans. Since babies are incapable of rational thought, common blessings are given out semi- randomly, they only defining trait being that it is something the person will most likely use a lot throughout their life. Most humans are incapable of fully using their blessing until around the age of five. Common blessings have no downsides, meaning that a person can stop using their blessing whenever they so please and suffer no negative consequences. In fact, if a person chooses to acquire blood magic, then they cannot use their blessing anymore. If a human goes to Heaven when they die, their angel form will have their blessing, even if they had blood magic in life.
Divine Blessings are the blessing bestowed upon angels. Since angels are born fully mature, they can pick whatever blessing they desire. This allows for powers beyond that which common blessings can bestow. As a trade off, every divine blessing has a downside. This downside will always affect the individual, even if they never use their blessing. The more powerful the blessing, the worse the downside is. The only way around this is to chose the Null blessing as it will provide no upside and no downside.
Some humans are born with divine blessings. These are known as Reincarnations, as they are humans from other worlds who have been reborn into the world. Since they were mature when they died, they are capable of choosing their own blessings. Interestingly, the downside to these blessings are oftentimes lessened compared to the angels. Reincarnations can also use their blessing in conjunction with blood magic, meaning that most will take the Oath when possible.
Most demons do not have blessings by default. This is the result of them fusing with Satan who keeps most of His power to Himself. However, demons who join the Ars Goetia have the choice to regain their blessing or acquire blood magic. The few who become a Demon Prince will get access to both. These powers don't disappear, even if the demon loses their spot on the council.
