	:These angels are the standard image of classic angel. Flawless human visage and form, they are created by Myrthter to answer and aid the cries of humanity. When manifesting their powers and miracles, a halo of iron and wings of precious metal will appear, with the side affect of turning spilled blood into water. Appearance and detail of these manifestations are thoroughly recorded to become more and more complex based on the divinity of the angel. Their duties range from healing, messengers, warriors or morale boosters. Some would posit though their miracles cover a larger and more generalized domain, they sacrifice outstanding performance in specialized fields such as the war angels of Ter or the forest sprites of the Nine. They do not age, and pairings between them and mortals, though rare but existing due to the nature of angels representing humanity and thus love, offspring produced is often whisked away by the holy parent, or must endure an existence of unwanted worship and adoration.		:These angels are the standard image of classic angel.

	Dragons, at least in the new world, are not quite like how we imagined them in the old one. They are capable of three forms, their normal dragonish one, the giant 6 limbed, fire (or occasionally another element) breathing monster, a humanoid one, and there is also the hybrid form where they are human with heavy dragon characteristics. A few dragons with excellent control over their transformative abilities are able to pick and chose which characteristics they keep in this form.

	Dwarven sexuality is hard to quantify. While looks -do- play a role in how they choose who they are attracted to, as does personality, these two facets play a MUCH smaller role in their attraction than it does in other races. No, what a dwarf looks for in a mate is ABILITY. A dwarf who is a master of his craft is considered to be a stud by all of his fellows, and rather than inviting a partner back to the bed room, they are far more likely to invite them to their private workshop.

	Dwarven society places massive importance upon tradition, loyalty, and the APPEARANCE of honor. You can be a backstabbing scum bag, but if no one can prove it, you'll only be disliked. God help you if it is ever proven that you are a treacherous snake, dwarves tend to lynch one another over that. But above all, most important to all dwarves, is the ability to get shit done. Proficiency in a craft is not based upon how you do it, but that you get it done as efficiently and cost effectively as possible, to the maximum result. In this end, Dwarves have found a surprising amount of admiration for the Outerrealmers of /TG/ given our industrial/digital age take upon most tasks, and is possibly the reason behind the alliance between /TG/ and the Ranges.

	;Silver Ships: Though rarely do they venture out of their Realms without ceremony, the Fey that take to the seas are able bodied in their seamanship. The magnificent vessels they craft from shining light and silver moonbeams (more likely metal and wood) are said to weather any storm and pass o'er any wave. Some suggest these Silver Ships have been sighted cresting the desert dunes, or riding the current of the wind. They are also fond of abducting travellers and forcing them to entertain the crew to pay for their "voyage".		;Silver Ships: Though rarely do they venture out of their Realms without ceremony, the Fey that take to the seas are able bodied in their seamanship.

			;Dullahan: A headless fey said to be the harbinger of death. It carries it's severed head which allows it to have extended sight. They are said to control a horse drawn carriage with headless horses, or ride a singular headless horse. It will only say one thing on each journey, and that is the name of who is to die, that is also it's method of execution as well, as upon saying the name of the soon to be departed it draws the soul away from the body. Little is known as to who they truly serve. They are rather fearful of Gold, so carrying a gilded object will scare it off.

			==Nymphs==
			A Type of deity associated with rivers, lakes, land formations, forests, etc. Considered to be beautiful maidens who perform dance and song. They have an immortal existence similar to that of the Fey. Those contaminated by the taint of Hell will change from peaceful Deities unto that of a menace to existence. They will lure unsuspecting humans to their end associated with their origin; For example: Water Nymphs will drown humans, Land Nymphs will crush them under Boulders and Trees. Some may even assimilate powers of the Succubi, use their appearance of maidens to lure in prey, and drain their life. Records show waterlogged corpses, crushed bodies, and withered husks of males of various races.

	::''Succubus''- A former mortal woman corrupted into a demon. The corruption process starts by repeated sexual torture of the victim until her will is broken, followed by a rewiring the brain. Connections to pleasure centers of the brain are greatly strengthened, increasing the sex drive; an inhibitor is also placed on the frontal lobes, diminishing the capacity for rational decision making until the ~~corresponing~~ rune is deactivated (which normally occurs after the succubus has gone five years without breaking a law). At this point, the soon-to-be succubus is implanted with demonic organs that will allow her to convert sexual energy into magic and assume the physical features associated with succubi. By this point, the corruption is irreversible, and only the training process (i.e. further sexual torture with some teaching) remains.		::''Succubus''- A former mortal woman corrupted into a demon.

			::''Arc Demon''- A Large beastial humanoid with horns and wings, the colors of skin vary. These are considered the "tanks" of Demonic armies as they are capable of breathing fire and toxic mists in addition to generating large bursts of magical power. Entire cities can be felled by just one of these. The Minimal height for an Arc Demon is usually around 30 feet tall. They can have anywhere from 2 to 10 wings. Numbers of Arc Demons are low as they cannot be easily born. Humans who sell themselves to demons and display extraordinary fortitude can ascend to be these

	; First Demons : The Demons that existed before succubi were created. Numbers are said to be low since the War Among Stars, but definitely, and suspiciously, at least Five. Religious paraphernalia and protection is only of marginal effectiveness, more likely to annoy or amuse them, whereas holy weapons are only enough to sting. There is no uniform shape among any recorded First Demons, and current theory suggest that there are not made of the same material as the born Demons. Of note, they are not born by any body at all, but spring fully formed from some long gone source. They do have mortal forms they can take on to walk amongst the mortals, but any further semblance of demonhood among them is relegated to looking "monstrous" in some way or other.		; First Demons : The Demons that existed before succubi were created.
