Edenians

### Description

Humans as they were before being cursed by the angels. Those in the present day come about due to their immunity to magic.

Edenians are humans who have reverted to the state that they mankind existed in before being cursed with mortality by the Archangel Raphael. The Edenians of the modern day come about as a result of a powerful ability to negate magic, resulting in the effects of the curse that would normally inflict them with mortality being nullified.

## Physiology

### Creation

Edenians result from humans randomly being born with the ability to nullify magic. Initially, this ability is weak and uncontrolled, and the child will still function as an ordinary human. However, as they age, their antimagic traits grow steadily more and more potent, and eventually results in Edenian traits developing, as well as allowing the antimagic effects to be controlled. The time that Edenian traits fully manifest as a result of strong antimagic traits varies considerably, but is likely to be accelerated by suffering injuries that would kill a mortal.

### Immortality

Once an Edenian is fully manifested, they are extremely difficult, if not nigh impossible, to kill. For one, once their mortality has been fully nullified by their traits, they will cease to be plagued by the effects of aging.

## Powers and Abilities

### Antimagic Field

Main Article: Edenian Antimagic

Edenians naturally project an antimagic field from their bodies. Their mere presence weakens ambient magical effects, lessens the potency of enchanted items, makes it harder for magical to abilities to be used, and weakens any physical prowess that is gained via supernatural means. As an Edenian grows older, the potency of this field grows, and they can refine it for more specific effects.

### Regeneration

Edenians can heal from virtually any damage. They can be shot, burned, cut, decapitated, dismembered, or even totally disintegrated, and will eventually reform out of the largest collection of their bodily mass. They can also survive deprivation of air, food, and water, with their healing abilities naturally returning them into a prime physical state. Depending on the potency of their antimagic field (and how weakened the effects of the curse of mortality are upon them as a result) the speed of their regeneration may vary.

### Supernatural Durability

Reverted to a pre-curse state, Edenians are tougher than ordinary humans, being much more resistant to pain. Whilst weapons will injure them without difficulty, they are relatively unfazed by most human punches and can function fairly well under pain.

### Supernatural Speed

Returned to a pre-curse state, an Edenian possesses quickness slightly beyond that of an ordinary mortal, being gifted with superior reflexes and the ability to run at around thirty to thirty five miles per hour at a top sprint.

### Supernatural Strength

Edenians, having regressed to their pre-curse state, regain physical strength that is slightly beyond a mortal. Whilst they cannot do anything so drastic as rip off a limb, they can beat down most humans without much trouble.

## Weaknesses

The only real weakness an Edenian has is Raphael's Curse, which must be strengthened upon them via magical means. Due to their innate antimagic properties, however, actually strengthening the curse upon them is extremely difficult, in addition to the fact that knowledge of the curse is extremely rare.
