## Life in the Hidden World

The reason why Nephalem Yokai are created is due to the fact that said spirit would be neutral and possess power from the forces of both Light and Darkness. These beings are based on the Nephilim Yokai, the hybrid offspring of an Angel Yokai and a human, with the only difference being that both parents are immortal spirits. In terms of Moral alignment, Nephalem Yokai are mainly neutral, some others may also be considered wild cards, going to the side of good, evil or anywhere in between. The same can also be said for the personality of said being. As for appearances, these yokai can have unique features from both sides of their heritage such as small horns and/or a halo, some having eyeballs that are from an Angel Yokai and a Demon Yokai, sometimes having both a demonic and angelic wing on either side of their backs, or colored skin and a supernatural, glowing aura that displays their divine status. At least in terms of deviating depictions, Nephalem Yokai could be the embodiment of chaos, where they basically tend to value freedom over order. In another perspective, since they are hybrids of Demon Yokai and Angel Yokai, they can embody both order and chaos, which is when they tend to balance both chaos and order to make the rest of existence more compromising and pleasant, as well as for the sake of creating true harmony. This sort of depiction of them are also responsible for keeping both afterlife planes in a state of balance, namely both Hell and Heaven.

## Symbolism

A Nephalem is the offspring of an angel and demon. They have the grace of an angel, demon blood or angel blood running through their veins, and a human soul made from the human vessel possessed by the Nephalem's angel and demonic parents. Nephalems are quite unique and far more powerful than any Nephilim or Cambion.
