Uriel
One of the few people--okay, one of the only two--I'd spill my guts to and for. And that's saying a lot in itself, coming from me. A former Power, he's one of the Archies and a GA. May help if you have writer's block. He's opposite the spectrum from Azzy. He will, and this is a promise, kill for me or anyone else he cares for. Who are few.
GAs
Most of you know them as Guardian Angels and get a visual of either a chick in a dress with a harp, a midget, or a little shoulder person.
...What have you guys been smoking?
Okay, some of them are girls, or look it (see Gender), and they perhaps would be seen in a dress. If you were desperate enough to ask yours to the prom.
As to the harp-toting thing...uh...Not so much...anymore. Some carry swords, others go bare-hand. If you now are wondering what your own personal bodyguard can do please raise your hand.
Hand raised? Okay. Here's a description with an example: Combine your mother with a grizzly and you can maybe scratch the surface of what protection is like. Say some noob is trying to mug you. Walk up, snap neck with a finger, make 100% certain you're okay. NB: They won't do that. (That's edited, cut, and sugar coated version.)
As to how your Guardian chooses you: your aura sings to them. In essence, pardon the pun, you are them.
Fallen
What do you think of when you hear "Fallen Angel"? Guys with black wings and huge egos wanting to enslave humanity? Demons with only half a head? Eh, you're part right.
Some of the guys who led the rebellion were pretty egosentric (i.e., the big names like Luci, Sam, etc.) Most of them that got kicked out during the ewar (the rest of the rebels and the neutralists (the neutralists you know as the Swiss)) decided that Lucifer was, in fact, as nuts as he looked and left to live on earth. The more commonly known of these are the Grigori, who sired the Nephilim before the Flood.
Others chose to leave to stay on earth such as a few of the Seraphim.
Nephilim
This is what happens when angels don't use condoms. Yes, ladies, you crap out a 2-4 lbs baby with wings (guys, be warned, you can also do this, though it's less common and much more painful.)
There was a high mortality rate among mothers who had nephilim for babies. The babies were huge, the mothers tiny, ergo they bled to death.
Nephilim are either one of two extremes. They take after the angelic parent--the babies are huge and usually develop along the lines of tall and strong. The advent of the C-section helped with the birthing.
The other extreme: a human baby with angelic blood or attributes. Basic descrip: huamn soul, angel powers. They are this way because moments after their birth a female angel blesses them with wings.
and tomorrow, class, we shall start on the basics. lol. Until then. *nods, disappears*
