Fallen Angels

Fallen angels were once part of the Young Host, but fell when Sattanael convinced them that God was unjust in not allowing them to be worshipped. The number of demons is approximately one third of the original host's number.

Nature
After the fall, the demons looked like their brothers, except with deathly pale skin and hair as black as night, their swords and feathers stained black. However, as time went on and their glory diminished, they began to twist and deform, becoming hideous, reptilian creatures with red scimitars and leathery wings. The loss of glory also resulted in loss of power, and demons who were once Haverim are barely a match for a Kovel. The more glorious the demon, however, the slower the fall, and Sattanael still has a humanoid form, though his wings are featherless and reptilian.

They lack their physical form, but can still show themselves in their true form or as an image. These images are often used to lead people into harm's way or to draw them from God by posing as higher beings, aliens, or deceased loved ones.

The Artifacts, used all together in one place, can restore a demon's physical form, but if this body dies, they are again without one. They can also be reglorified to their original state, before their fall, but this affect only lingers while the Artifacts are activated, and if their power is broken, the spirits affected quickly degenerate to their fallen state.

Fate
When a demon is felled by an angelblade, it is cast into the Pit. Hell, however, is not yet sealed, and will only be on the Great and Terrible Day; therefore demons can claw their way out to continue tempting and deceiving. Weaker demons have a harder time returning, but stronger demons have stronger bindings on them, and therefore the strongest demons can only be released through the use of the Artifacts or through rituals on the Halloween when the bindings on the demons in the Pit are at their weakest.

At the Great and Terrible Day, all demons will be cast into Hell and locked there, unable to be freed from their torment, along with the souls of the enemies of God and the wicked Nafilwn.
