Nephilim

## Supernatural Information

### Powers

Same powers of an Angel, but to a higher degree and alterated by their status as angelic/human hybrid

## Characterisitcs

### Birth

Because of their status as children of the Angels, one of the most powerful race in the world, giving birth to a Nephilim is much dangerous and it can easily be fatal for the mother, especially if she is a mortal. In fact, most of the mothers died when they sired a child, because they were unable to survive the magical energy unleashed once the child was born.

### Physiology

#### Nature

As the children of Angels, the Nephilim are usually prone to proudness, overconfidence and superiority, however, thanks to their humanity, they are also mellow, compassionate and more than willing to help their cousins. In fact, because of their humanity, the Nephilim are much more willing to interact with humanity and help those in need.

## Types of Nephilim

* **Arch-Nephilim -** The child of an Archangel and a mortal, the Arch-Nephilim is the most powerful kind of Angel that can be ever conceived, with a power that is much higher and grater than that of any Archangel. Even among many half breeds, the Arch-Nephilim is one of the most feared and powerful creatures to have ever existed, because he has a power that is so great that, if used completely, is strong enough to completely destroy an entire dimension.
* **Elioud -** The Jewish word for giant, the Elioud were the first kind of Nephilim to be ever born: they were rather powerful, but because of the enviroment that they grew up in, they became bitter and for this most were hunted down by the Angels. Although some of them did survive, only few of them managed to master completely their powers and they became strong enough to fight back against their parents.

## Powers and Abilities

As the children of the Angels, the Nephilim had all the powers of one, but due to their different physiology, they were slighly different: in particular, because they could age and grow, their powers were meant to grow as well, until they reach maturity, when they become powerful enough to kill their parents rather easily. In fact, the Nephilim's power are always a tad stronger than those of their angelic parent.

* **Aetherkinesis -** As the children of Angels, the Nephilim can manipulate the Aether and use it to empower themselves, becoming more powerful in the process. They can use its pure energy to charge themselves and if necessary, they can shape it into powerful blasts that can kill Demons and demonic half breeds. They can also use the energy to empower their spells and rituals.
* **Angel Immunity -** The Nephilim are immune to many of their parents weaknesses: they are immune to self judgment and they cannot lose their wings. If they are cut off, they will grow back in several minutes. In addition, they are more resistant to weapons that would kill their parents. In addition, while Angels are bound to Heaven and they become fallen if they rebel, Nephilim have the same free will of human beings, which allows them to choose how to use their powers, something that the Angels truly fear.
* **Angel Manipulation -** Since they are the children of Angels, the Nephilim are capable of influencing to a certain level the actions of other Angels. However, they can only control those that are not above their power. For example, a Nephilim sired by a common Angel can only influence/ control an Angel that belongs to the Third Sphere

* **Elementukinesis -** Like Angels, the Nephilim have a high control over the weather and they can manipulate it in every way they want.
	+ **Pyrokinesis -** The Nephilim are able to control the fire to a very high level, so much that they can even generate it without thinking.
		- **Sancty-Ignikinesis -** The Nephilim can infuse the holyness in their flames, creating a more powerful version of the Holy Fire. Thanks to this, they are capable of burning down many demons, to the point where some of them can literally burn them down in an instant.
* **Immense Combat -** The Nephilim have a natural aptitude to combat and they had proven to be naturaly skilled in martial arts and weapon fighting. With further training, a Nephilim can quickly rise to become a deadly duelist whose power is unrivalled among the Angels. However, because of their brief and untraied life, the skills that the Nephilim managed to gain is usually little compared to the millenia that the Angels managed to gain, making them far more powerful and dangerous than the Nephilim.
* **Immortality -** The Nephilim are immortal like their parents. They are immune to any human disease and once they reach full maturity, they are meant to exist forever. As such, they have the potential to live for billions of years if they are not killed.
	+ **Nigh-Invulnerability -** As the children of the Angels, the Nephilim could not be killed by any human weapon and they could only be hurt with magical objects. Additionally, they were completely immune to any human disease or injure, because their physiology protected them from both; they also do not require sleeep, food or drinking to survive, since they are spiritual creatures. In fact, the Nephilim are also quite durable and capable of taking a vast amount of blows with little sign of injure, however, they can still received lethal injuries if challenged by more powerful and stronger beings, to the point where it would require them some time to heal.
	+ **Super Healing Factor -**
* **Mental Manipulation** **-**
* **Photokinesis -** As the children of Angels, all Nephilim have a high level of control over light that is superior to even Angels; their entire body radiates light in their true form and even their wings are completely covered by it, so much that in fact they have to use a vast deal of power to prevent humans from seeing their light. They are capable of using their power both as an offensive and a defensive weapon, using its power to obliterate many dark creatures, in particular the Old Ones, who can be affected by this power to a very high degree.
	+ **Holy White Light -** The Nephilim can generate the unique White Light, a powerful form of white energy that is lethal and can completely destroy everything on its path, however, at second of how much strong they are, the Nephilim can manipulate a certain amount of power without risking being destroyed. In fact, if an Nephilim use more power than what he can afford, his entire body could be possibly destroyed by the pure amount of power directly generated.
* **Resurrection/ Healing/ Purification -** The Nephilim are imbued with the power to heal, purify and even resurrect the souls of those that were affected by dark and venomous energy. As such, they are able to heal others from injuries that are not beyond their reach and they can even resurrect deceased beings. However, they can only restore those that are not beyond their reach an only if they are not protected from more powerful beings.
* **Shapeshifting -** The Nephilim have very advanced shapeshifting skills, in particular between their human and angelic form. While they were in their human aspect, the Angels looked like ordinary humans, although they were more beautiful and more muscled than humans; they had a natural grace that most humans did not have. The Angels were able to assume their true visage, were their all body was covered in golden light, wearing full armors and with huge bird like wings on their back. The Angels were also capable of revealing a partial part of their true nature, showing only their wings or by illuminating their body.
	+ **Wings Manifestation -** When they want, the Angels can just sow their wings and use them to fly everywhere in the universe.
* **Super Speed/ Agility -** The Nephilim are rather fast and as such their reflexes, speed and agility is much higher than most beings, to the point where is rather difficult to catch them off guard, because they can move so fast that most people would never even see them coming. Whenever they are flying or showing their true form, all their speed is vastly augmented and they are capable of facing hordes of weaker monsters rather easily.
* **Super Strength -** The Nephilim are physically very strong and they can hold their own against their parents, to the point that when they are adult, their strength is powerful enough to surpass that of their parents. The strength of a Nephilim depends on the angelic parent, but they are at least capable of defeating their parents in physical combat. For example, William was able to tore apart a common Angel with his bare hands, while Gideon, an Elioud, was able to hold his own for a short amount of time against Raphael, although it should be noted that Raphael was physically the weakest of all Archangels.
* **Telekinesis -** The Nephilim have displayed a high level of telekinetic power and they were able to use this skill both to paralise their opponents and to defend themselves against minor attacks. Some Nephilim also relied to this power to fly without attracting too much attention. They were also capable of using it to inflict injuries on their opponents from afar, avoiding direct contact with them.
* **Telepathy -**
* **Weather Manipulation -**
