Species

There are a variety of speicies in the asmiaverse, aswell sub-speicies of each of these speicies. Each speicies has a varying amount of divinity naturally bestowed and given onto them, but it is worth remembering not all divinity are equal.

## Gods

Gods are a varied and wide range of creatures. Of all speicies, Gods have the most divinity of all of them. There are multiple classifications of Gods, and even more subcategories, but the most important distinction and one based on their 'domain', which is evil domain or good domain. An evil domain does not automatically mean the god is evil, nor a good domain a good god, but they do follow these most of the time. Domains are what concept, idea, or force a god has control over. A god usually has one main domain, and multiple lesser domains.

**Primordial God**: The primordial gods are a subspecies of the gods, with control over primordial forces such as creation. Tanka seems to be the only one of these kind in existence.

**Daemon God**: The daemon gods, or just greater daemons, are another subspeicies of gods. What makes them significantly more dnagerous is that they can create entire divine kingdoms that are entirely outside the view and notice of heaven itself. They are capable of breaking fundamental laws of the world. Greater Daemons also can use a domain that is already used by a God. Generally, Greater Daemons are extremely rare, The known Greater Daemons are Sarathal, Greater Daemon of Fate, Fanara, Greater Daemon of Time, Zonon, Greater Daemon of Sin, Iothis, Greater Daemon of the End, Haraz, Greater Daemon of the Sun, Vnaz, Greater Daemon of Rebellion, and Exera, Greater Daemon of Blood/Life.

**False God**: This god is the most unique of all four subspecies, as they are originally not infact gods. They all have only a faint glimmer of divinity inside, a lineage or something less, but belief is power when it comes to gods. if a being with a bit of divinity is worshipped, over time that glimmer of divinity will grow more and more bright and powerful, until the being that was worshipped becomes a full fledged god.

**Contract Gods**: Contract Gods are gods that inhabit a small, weak form that cannot exert much of their powers unless they make a contract with another being. In exchange for this, the power they offer their host is incredible and much amplified, to make up for the disadvantage of needing a host. While the being they make a contract with has to be sentient, it doesn't mean that they cant inhabit inanimate objects if allowed by their host. Most often they inhabit an organ or a weapon.

## Angels

Angels are the beings that have less divinity than gods, but still a very potent amount. Angels always serve a 'Lord' , whom is a god and gives them their lesser domain. this benefits both the god and the angel, as the angel now gets complete control over domains gifted to them, while the god does not risk becoming too far and wide spread over their duties and control over said domains.

**Seraphim**: Seraphim are an extremely, *highly* rare subspeicies of angels. These angels have 8 pairs of wings as opposed to the normal 2, and are stronger than most gods. Seraphims are closer to gods than a normal angel, and generally gain massive differences in strength pre-seraphim awakening compared to post awakening. Their names in anceint times used to be 'Matos un livine', which translates to executioner of the divine. Seraphim are so incredibly dangerous infact, that just the mere threat of one can shape centuries. they, by far, exhibit the most drastic gap of strength between their normal counterparts, exceeding that of even the gap between the primordial god and a regular god. Seraphim after awakening twist and change the domain they had before, cutting it off from the god who gifted it to them. It's unknown if the Seraphim are truly real, or if they are a myth.

**Angel Kings**: Angel kings are feared just as much as the seraphim by heaven, though for an entirely different reason. Angel kings do get a difference in strength, but it is not nearly as drastic as the ones gained a seraphim. In exchange however, they have a unique ability that is the cause of heaven's fear: Angel King's Authority. Any angel, excluding a seraphim, who receives a command from an angel king absolutely must follow the command no matter what. it is impossible to break this connection. Angel Kings are also capable of breaking the connections between Angels and Gods, and essentially 'stealing' the domains. there has only ever been one other angel king, whose name has long been forgotten and buried via the actions of the gods.

**Nephilim**: Nephilim are unique, as they, similar to false gods, require prerequisites to be meet for the Nephilim to awaken. Nephilim are the perfect unity of corruption and purging, chaos and order, protection and destruction, evil and good. They are not exactly evil, but not good either. They must contain both evil and good within their bodies, and often are 'forged through fire', which is literal. Nephilim awakenings happen almost always within a flame. The powers they wield reflect their equilibrium nature- they become able to use power capable of purging evil, and also capable of bringing disorder to good. They possess monstrous physical strength.

## Demigods

Demigods are, as the name implies, half godly beings. Most commonly their other half is human, but their other half can be anything from a human to a fox, as long as it bears no divinity. Their powers are often reflecting of their godly parent.

**Chromatic Demigod**: A very rare type of demigod that bears a main godly lineage that usually makes up half of their blood like every other demigod, but their other half has a small lineage of a different god. They can have up to 3 other godly lineages different from their main godly half. this godly blood provides a synergistic effect, enhancing all godly powers, and making a demigod that is capable of wielding multiple god's powers.

**God-Purging Demigod**: A rare type of Demigod who has the power to kill immortals, and has combined this power wih often evil natured energies or powers. These Demigods are terrifyingly fit to be considered God Hunters, capable of nullifying parts of divinity, and making anything they touch capable of bringing permanent injury to a God.

**Avatar Suppliant**: A rare type of Demigod capable of channeling and providing a 'second room' in their mind, where a god can enter. When channeling a god, they gain all the powers that the god would normally have while also maintaining the power they would normally have as a demigod.

## Humans

The most common speicies in all of the asmiaverse, humans have not a spark of divinity inside. They have innate powers sometimes, but this usually only happens in powerful bloodlines such as royal families and higher end nobles.

**Blessed**: A Human who carries the blessing of one or more gods, usually coming in the form of extra magic or skill in a certain talent.

**Anceint Vessel**: A Human who houses a mass of anceint energy inside of themselves, or other anceint power/object. They reap massive benefits from this, becoming considered epic heroes of their time. They often gain magic from this, and their powers are able to match that of a normal demigod.

**Spiritweaver**: A Human who has extremely deep spiritual sight, and for it is capable of seeing into the otherworld/the afterlife, and its remnants on the physical world, allowing them to see spirits and entities of non physical bodies, and even peering directly into the afterlife in particularly spirit rich environments.
