Spirits of Destruction

Spirits of Destruction are rarely mentioned, but are usually identified as fallen Ophanim.

Nature
Spirits of Destruction are cursed to be unable to enter any being, unlike Demons who can possess people, and to have an eternal hunger for souls to consume. The Artifacts can get around this rule, however, creating Kalayfin.

Spirits of Destruction are the only demons able to fabricate the connection of body and spirit in a soul. For this reason, normal demons cannot possess corpses (as the spirit is departed and the soul is severed) as these can.

Spirits of Destruction are rarely seen, and their constant goal is to find the Artifacts so they can be given souls to consume. They appear as lagre, hulking, mermaid-like shadow-figures. They do not possess wings as other demons do, but rather swim through the air like serpents. When they fight they use two swords as opposed to the normal one.

Fate
Spirits of Destruction who are defeated are cast into Hell, but are able to escape, as the Pit is not yet locked. At the End of Time they will be cast in with the other demons, and the Pit will be sealed, stopping their escape for eternity.
