UPDATED; 7/13
Gifted- Gifted are simply humans that have the ability to see Angels and Demons either because they were born with this or they suffered trauma that caused them to see. Either way, they are now part of the war, whether they like it or not. [They usually only have One or Two powers at the most.]
Teacher- Mutants hired to work at one of the houses. They are very protective of their students. [5-7 Powers]
Teacher's Assistant- Mutants hired to work at one of the houses. They are teachers in training. [5-7 Powers]
Professor- Professors are those who open the houses for the kids to come in. They have big hearts, and usually a thick wallet. [Otherwise, how would they pay for everything?] [5-7 Powers]
Professor's Assistant- Known for having a big heart, these mutants come in with one soul purpose. To help. [5-7 Powers]
Mutant- Born with abilities that are not of Human nature. They tend to live on their own, instead of one of the houses. [5-7 powers]
Anti-Mutant- They have a strong hate of Mutants, wanting to rid them of the world. Their powers are used to kill mutants. [5-7 powers]
X-Anti-Mutant- These are those who had a change of heart. They've 'seen' the truth, so to speak. A change of heart, and tada, no longer a killer. [5-7 powers]
X-Mutants- Named so because they were exilled from the mutant race for things they have done. [5-7 Powers]
Hands of Phoenix- Named so by their creator, Phoenix. These creatures are ruthless to no end. They are human, but have lost their memories from Phoenix's concoction. [6-8 Powers]
Other- Usually mutant, but can not be thrown into the categories above. [5-7 powers]
Archangel- Archangels are often noticed by their two large wings. These Angels are the most powerful and many are very old, going back to the very beginning of time. (If you want to be an Archangel, PM me first before doing ANYTHING!) [9-10 powers]
Archvalkyrie- Archvalkyries are rare at best, but these Angels are stand out among the rest in many more ways then one. With three long but thin wings sprouting from their backs, these Angels can maneuver around in a battle with precision and make fighting a war look like an art form. Archvalkyries are not born but in fact were once normal Valkyries until they were granted a 'promotion' of sorts by Michael himself. (If you want to be an Archvalkyrie, PM me first before doing ANYTHING! There will be only a few in existence and your history must speak about how you became one.) [9-10 powers]
Cherubs - To explain this race, we only need say one thing. "Cupid." - Cherubs often have handsome/beautiful features to anyone who looks upon them. They are the natural love matchers upon the world, looking for love for anyone that needs it. However, not even they have a 100% guarantee it'll last. [9-10 powers]
Valkyrie- Valkyries are the angels of battle and the ones most fit to wage wars against Demons. Born for battle, they are often trained instantly and are only known as soldiers before anything else. They were always put upon the front lines during battles since they were the ones most fit for true battle. Though in these times, Valkyries seem to be a dying race... [9-10 powers]
Visilight- These beings hold the light of the world. More often then not, they are very charismatic but are more known for their beating light of a head. Even in their human form, a visilight must wear sunglasses or use an illusion power or they risk their light showing through their eyes. An automatic power of theirs is the ability to telepathically talk to others around, but do not think they can read minds, they can only hear the voice if the person thinks about them while thinking words. When a visilight dies, it explodes into a harmless ray of light, almost as if it has fled to be reborn in Heaven. [9-10 powers]
Familiar- Familiars are protectors of mortal witches and mages. Many people mistake them for simple animals, but in fact that is just their main form. Any familiar can take human form and a single animal form of a pet. Meaning they can become a cat or dog of their choosing, but when they first change, they keep that form for the rest of their lives. They are forced to guard their witch or mage counterpart so that Angels don't always have to be around. That makes familiars the guardian Angels of witches & mages. Like any Angel, Familiars live forever, however they can die from mortal wounds and will not return to the world. Any Familiar automatically gets the power to transform into their given animal (cat, dog or some other domesticated pet) and Magic Talk, allowing them to talk to magical people while in their animal form. [9-10 powers]
Seraphim- The Seraphim have 6 small wings. It is said that two are to cover their eyes and two to cover their mouths, which could be metaphorical for the fact that Seraphim are a quiet race who rarely speak out and tend to turn a blind eye when they should not. They are very musical, often heard on their harps in Heaven, and are very psychic, having prophetic visions regarding Earth and things which affect Heaven. [9-10 Powers]
Whitelighter- Whitelighters are angels of the guardian type, such as Familiars. Whitelighters are people who were generally good people that had died. The powers of a Whitelighter (such as orbing [form of transportation], healing, and ect.
Orbing- This power is only possessed by whitelighters, and darklighters. The being (dis)appears in the usual glow of blue and white lights, called orbs; however, there are some cases when the orbs will have a different color
Incubus/Succubus- They may enter homes uninvited and can take on the appearance of other persons as shape-shifter.They will often visit the same victim repeatedly. A victim of an incubus will experience the visits as dreams. The incubus drains energy from the woman on whom it performs sexual intercourse in order to sustain itself. Religious tradition holds that repeated intercourse with such a spirit by either males or females (the female version of the incubus is called a succubus) may result in the deterioration of health, or even death. In medieval Europe, union with an incubus was supposed by some to result in the birth of witches, demons, and deformed human offspring. The legendary magician Merlin was said to have been fathered by an incubus. [9-10 powers]
Balrog- Balrogs were tall, menacing humanoid beings, with the ability to shroud themselves in fire, darkness, and shadow. They frequently appeared armed with fiery whips of many things. They could not be casually destroyed: significant power was required. Only dragons rivaled their capacity for ferocity and destruction. With the ability to take human form, Balrog's can blend in with society. However, they cannot stay in human form for very long or risk their Balrog going into a rage and simply taking over. Additionally, in human form, their full Balrog power diminishes and goes dormant within them. [9-10 powers]
Imp- Imps are usually described as mischievous more than seriously threatening, and as lesser beings rather than more important supernatural beings. The attendants of the devil are sometimes described as imps. They are usually described as lively and having small stature. Some accounts of imps treat them as capable of being turned to good, because they are so desperately lonely they would do almost anything—even commit good deeds—to have a committed friend. [9-10 powers]
Elemental Demons- Elemental demons can be of the air, fire, lightning, soil, or water. Because of that, they are required to take a powers that revolves around their elemental. However, elemental demons have an advantage that no other demon, angel or human have, they can turn into their element to make for quick getaways or simply harm their enemies. Though they must keep their same density and if any part of them is lost IE a fire demon's fire is partly put out, a water demon's water is drank/absorbed, they will lose apart of their own body. [9-10 powers]
Darklighter- Darklighters are the demonic counterparts to Whitelighters. Darklighters can teleport from place to place by orbing, as Whitelighters can, but their orb effects are black in color. They also come equipped with crossbows, which they can summon into their hands at any time. The Darklighter crossbow arrows are coated with a special type of poison that is especially lethal to Whitelighters.
Sirens - Sirens in greek mythology, are beautiful woman. Who sang such sweet songs that listeners forgot everything and died. (If anyone has anything to add, PM me, ty)
Djinn/Genie- Genie is the English term for the Arabic (jinn). In pre-Islamic Arabian mythology and in Islam, a jinni (also "djinni" or "djini") is a member of the jinn (or "djinn"), a race of creatures. The word "jinn" literally means anything which has the connotation of concealment, invisibility, seclusion and remoteness. Very little is truly known about them though, just that they can grant wishes as long as the wish is made. How it's done however, is up to the Djinn. [9-10 Powers]
Banshee- The banshee, from the Irish bean sí ("woman of the síde" or "woman of the fairy mounds") is a female spirit in Irish mythology, usually seen as an omen of death and a messenger from the Otherworld. Her Scottish counterpart is the bean shìth (also spelled bean-shìdh). The aos sí ("people of the mounds", "people of peace") are variously believed to be the survivals of pre-Christian Gaelic deities, spirits of nature, or the ancestors. Some Theosophists and Celtic Christians have also referred to the aos sí as "fallen angels". They are commonly referred to in English as "fairies", and the banshee can also be described as a "fairy woman".[9-10 Powers]
Gargoyles- Gargoyles are rare to see, for they aren't what everyone thinks they are. Many look just like you or I, blending in with the new society after the age of Castles had fallen. They may turn to stone at will though and meaning the sun does not effect them like stories say. However, when a Gargoyle sleeps, they automatically turn to stone. The figure they are as a stone statue depends on the gargoyle, they could take up the normal gargoyle look or even pose as something else. All that matters is that their body can fit inside it like a child in a womb. For reproduction, they cannot have children with a human, demon or an angel, only their own kind. [9-10 Powers]
Nymphs - A nymph in Greek mythology is a fairy like creature that looks after the plants on Earth. Most have powers that have to do with the earth itself.[9-10 powers]
Muses- Muses in Greek mythology, poetry, and literature are the goddesses or spirits who inspire the creation of literature and the arts. They were considered the source of the knowledge, related orally for centuries in the ancient culture, that was contained in poetic lyrics and myths.[9-19 powers]
Weres- Werewolves are a mythological or folkloric human with the ability to shapeshift into a wolf. Werewolves are often attributed super-human strength and senses, far beyond those of both wolves or men. [Important: Treat weres here like they created them on True Blood. They can shift willingly, but if it's a full moon they can't control the shift. Their power ties into their emotions so if pushed over the edge, watch out. The only powers that are associated with Werewolves is; Enhanced Senses, Super speed, Night Vision, Fortitude, and Vigor]
