Spoiler
Name of the race: Angel's (or that is the name given to them by humans, and even some other races.)
Gender: Can be male, can be female. Though to them gender doesn't really matter.
Appearance:
Angel's can look mostly human in their hidden form. A form they take to blend in with the culture they are trying to fit in with. So on Earth they'd take on a completely human appearance.
In their true form, and not much people have seen their true form, their full power is released. During which they lose their current physical shell and all that can be seen is a brightly (like hurting your eyes bright) glowing humanoid figure with what appears to be feathered wings (whether the wings are feathered or not is actually completely up in the air in a manner of speaking.) When in their true forms they irradiate an energy that can best be described as 'intense and angelic.' While in their true forms they may look humanoid, but they lack all facial features (including eyes), yet somehow this does not hinder their vision or senses. As well their true voice sounds indescernible to human ears, but animals and the like can seemingly understand their true voice. The only answer that anyone has gotten because of this is that one angel managed to tell one lone man that they claim 'they have not accepted us yet.' Whatever this means, it is unclear. To humans though their voices sound like high pitched whining coming from a radio almost. It's mainly because their voice is on a different wavelength to normal sound that humans can hear properly. So far it just seems like an Angel's true form cannot be comprehended by humans, but other magical beings can seemingly see an angel's true form and understand them just fine.
To say a kitsune, an Angel's true form would look much like their human form, but with wings, and an intense glow (that isn't AS intense.)
Abilities:
Angel's are powerful beings. They surpass that of demons in terms of power, though not in numbers. As only a certain type of angel can breed with their own to supply full blood angel's. These are the Seraphim.
The following:
Arch Angel:
Arch Angel's are the highest in the tier list of angel's. Their power being intense enough to that of basic reality warping (can create objects out of thin air), as well as possessing the strongest angelic aura of any angel type. Currently only a small handful are known to exist, and they are the 'Lords of Heaven.' With the most powerful being an Arch Angel known as Mikaela. Their true forms are much like that of other angel's. An intense glowing form of pure energy that any ordinary human without an aether connection (Humans with a connection to Aether, as well as most non-humans can somewhat view an Arch Angel's true form in which it would still just look like a tall featureless glowing figure) would have their eyes burnt out of their skull upon witnessing it due to the intense energy being released from the form. Due to this Arch Angel's require a human form or vessel to properly interact with other beings without causing much harm. Aside from powerful demons. Most low-ranking demons would be utterly destroyed by an arch angel's true form. When it comes to other abilities, an Arch Angel has the power to heal the physical wounds of beings, as well as most natural diseases (meaning diseases NOT caused by magic could be healed by an Arch Angel's touch.) Aside from this an Arch Angel can also tap into the memories, and even change the memories of a being if they can place their hand on the head of said being (though some are much harder to effect than others.) Arch Angel's can also quickly teleport in a way similar to teleportation. Though it does take a quite a large amount of focus and can't be used instantaneously. Making it more for transportation rather than combat.
Angel's:
The most common type of angel's, and easily the more... varied. Angel's are more human than Arch Angel's, though due to lack of interaction with the outside worlds they aren't the most social or intelligent when it comes to social interactions with others. Like they just can't understand some of the things of modern human society that well. So they can get confused. Though the main thing is that they have some of the abilities of an Arch Angel. The only thing about them is that their power is FAR weaker than an Arch Angel. At full power an Arch Angel would be equal to about 5-10 angel's. Though what the normal angel's lack in terms of raw power, they make up for in numbers, and as such make up a large portion of 'Heaven's' forces. With some angel's serving different roles in demon territory.
Normal angel's can heal wounds of mortal's, they can teleport, and they can tap into a person's memories (but ONLY through physical contact.) However it takes much longer for them to do any of that stuff while for Arch Angel's it would take about... 5-10 minutes for such a thing to be done. These are the angel's that are appearing more often on Earth, but only in numbers of one angel usually. With said angel trying to recruit more people into their forces in hopes of converting them into angel's to regrow their army.
The Fallen:
The Fallen are angel's who had severed their connection to the Heaven's Crown. A artifact of angelic origin that supplies the angelic power for ALL angel's. Either the connection was severed by their own choices, or as punishment. Either way their angelic power was removed leaving only a basic connection to the Aether, their wings and their true forms had taken physical form instead of remaining as wings and bodies made of pure energy. Due to this The Fallen are pretty much like humans that are more in-tune with magic, but with well... wings. These wings can vary in size, and color. As well as granting the Fallen basic, bird-like flight.
weaknesses: Angel's. Of almost any kind are natural weak to the forces of Darkness. Such as Dark magic and necromancy, corruption, and various other 'dark' elements. Getting hit by corruption type spells could have adverse effects on normal angel's. Such as make them sick, weaken them, and even possibly sever their connection to the 'Heaven's Crown'. The artifact that provides Angel's with their angelic power. Arch Angel's are a bit more resistant, but enough dark magical power can induce the same effects. Lowering them to normal angelic status or lower.
The Fallen are far more resistant due to their lack of angelic energy. The only thing is that the Fallen are literally just like humans except with wings, and natural magic power (not nature magic, just are a bit more naturally adept with magic.) So gunshots and other things that can kill a human, could kill or weaken a Fallen.
Now. Angel's and Arch-Angel's despite their power, and potential skill. They are stubborn and would rather not back down from a fight unless it means they absolutely have to. Meaning an Angel is far more likely to die in battle than say a... Demon who'd know when to retreat.
Also Angel's and Arch-Angel's can be killed permanently if they are stabbed in their physical 'human' form's heart (human form just looks like a normal human except their wings are invisible until they reveal their true form.) Or attacked in a fatal area with a weapon that is DESIGNED to kill supernatural beings.
In their angelic true form of pure energy they can be killed if one can cause a disruption with their 'soul' (via powerful, POWERFUL Dark Magic.) Just be careful as an Angel's true form is when they tap into their full power, and can be dangerous. They rarely show this form however except when needed.
History:
In the realm where Demon's and Angel's shared the same planet, both races were in direct conflict. In fact Angel's weren't always the heavenly beings of pure energy with only physical human-like shells. In fact they were biological beings at first with a strong sense of 'justice' and 'honor'. Though Angel's despised the Demon's and their... 'sinful' behavior. They saw them as dangerous. Pests that are taking up room that would be more fitting for Angel's. They sought to wipe Demons out, and the only way they could achieve such was through war. Though war was not something that would come easy. Demons outnumbered angel's, and in turn Angel's would lose... However... Arch Angel Mikaela. Leader of the Angel's had a plan. For there was a legend of an ancient artifact of power that could give the Angel's the power needed to win a war should they start one. One called the Heaven's Crown. It was locked away a thousand years beforehand in their realm by some unknown being, and was only stated to be used if they only truly needed it. Sadly the corrupt Angel's had believed that wiping out the Demon's, was a act that needed to be done. As such Arch-Angel Mikaela's men desperately convinced her to unseal it, and unlock it's power... and so she did.
When the Heaven's Crown, an artifact in the form of a large Crystal Spire surrounded by a runic cage that formed a crown shape was released. All Angel's on the 'Angel side' of the planet, had quickly been exposed to it's energy. What happened was their souls lit aflame with a holy energy, and from it their power was growing quickly. They had become truly what was believed to be angel's. 'Holy' beings of energy encaged in a physical body of flesh and blood.
The Demon King though had sensed this power and had grown fearful... they figured the Angel's were up to something, and the bright lights he saw approaching the Demon Capital was a bad sign... Soon, in a short matter of time that almost seemed like a blur. A long war had started. One that last for nearly a few decades. When it finally ended, the Demon's had won. Though only because of their will to not give up and actually plan out strategies. While the Angel's had only lost because their newfound power had made them arrogant, thinking they can win without a need to retreat. It was due to that that the angel race has been cut short. Nearly diminished. A large chunk of the Arch Angel's had died, and countless regular angel's lost their lives as well. Leaving their numbers only in the small thousands, with only a dozen Arch Angel's existing. It also did not help that the Heaven's Crown had been damaged at the end of the war thanks to the efforts of the 7 Deadly Sins, and their father the Demon King himself who thankfully had managed to survive and weaken the angel's.
After that war was over Angel's had to go into hiding, almost to the point where they were believed to have gone extinct... Even the Demons have forgotten them for the most part... Well except for those who had survived the war, and are still alive (which aside from the demon king and a few others is quite slim.)
Recently though reports of Angel's resurfacing, pure blooded angel's at not full power have been popping up here and there. The reports are rather small in numbers however. The Fallen themselves are far more common, and are more widespread though. They are the only remnants of the pure angel's from the past that are socially active and NOT out to do whatever true Angel's have planned.
Behavior:
Angel's are... rough. Regular Angel's and Arch Angels are both rather similar. Despite popular belief Angel's are not holy, they aren't really 'kind', nor are they entirely PURE of heart. Angel's are rather selfish, often only fighting for each other, and will not help out other races unless they absolutely have to. Otherwise they normally will ACCEPT help, but don't expect anything in exchange often. As they are kind of selfish. Angel's are also normally prideful, especially Arch-Angel's and normal Angel's often praise or follow an Arch-Angel's orders due to their power and position.
Angel's in general also think of other races in a rather low light. As in they feel other races are inferior (when in actuality Angel's have their own exploitable weaknesses including their own pride), and often would not dabble in anything related to other races unless they have a reason to/or it's part of their plan to eradicate Demons.
Regarding Demons though they are quite hostile, often willing to open battle against a Demon regardless of the surroundings claiming it's 'for the better good'. Due to this Angel's are ALWAYS ready for combat. Arch Angel's and Angel's also are not too familiar with modern day human terminology or tech to a limited extent.
The Fallen are quite a bit different. Due to their connection to the Heaven's Crown being severed they are now mortals themselves, and have only a physical body much like a human (albeit with white wings from their back.) They have also become not as arrogant or prideful, and due to their weakened state and exile they have been forced to communicate with other races more on a regular basis. Due to this The Fallen (fallen angel's who lost their angelic power, but can still use magic through training) are a bit more friendly.
Biology:
Angel's and Arch Angel's are unique. As due to the power of the Heaven's Crown they had lost their original physical forms and became beings of energy (that vaguely look human), but are now contained in a human-looking 'shell' that when damaged, will reveal the glowing energy inside. This human shell looks human, and is capable of a lot of things that humans can do. They use this form mainly for safe interactions with others because direct exposure to an Angel's or Arch-Angel's true form for enough time can induce a sickness similar to radiation sickness (but not as long lasting or damaging unless constantly exposed to the angel's true form for enough time.) An Angel's physical form or shell if damaged or destroyed can be repaired (or they can just make a new one), but it would take some time. Their true forms are also highly reactive to magical energy from say... Dark Magic or Corruption Magic (Arch Angel's aren't as vulnerable to magic, and as such it will take a lot more energy to cause damage.) Destruction of their physical form will often cause them to retreat or else they will cause nasty damage otherwise. In their physical form an Angel or Arch Angel lack visible physical wings, which can make it really hard to tell if someone is an Angel or Arch-Angel unless they reveal so (their physical shells are REALLY good at hiding their angelic energy, and not only that but Angel's are really rare on earth, and only a few sightings (like only a dozen over the past few decades) have been reported So if you see an angel in their physical form they would look like a human without wings or anything special except a strong, odd aura that isn't very familiar as their Angelic aura is... kind of messy. Strong, but messy and doesn't have a defined... 'feel' to it. Normal Angel's and Arch Angel's. Cannot mate with eachother, instead a pure Angel can only mate. With a human. Which will oddly... produce a full angel. It's odd.
The Fallen, Fallen Angel's who lost their angelic true form (which was ORIGINALLY created by exposure to the Heaven's Crown), now have a body that is almost completely human minus the wings coming from their backs (Which vary in shape and size, but not often color. Due to this Fallen Angel's (or in other words 'The Fallen' are quite vulnerable to nearly anything a human is, except they are exceptional flyers due to their wings. If two fallen angel's mate, it will only produce another Fallen Angel, not a pure angel. So in short Fallen Angel + Fallen Angel= Fallen Angel baby. Fallen Angel + Human = Half Fallen Angel.
