Heres some of the fantastical creatures of Id!


Aerico, Disease demons that hail from the Abyssal Depths, whom take the form of ghouls, these are the blight of both mortal and immortals alike since their aura affects a vast diversity of beings, turn kingdoms into plaguelands. It is fortunate these beings are kept within Lord Abaddon's realm, and are only relinquished when summoned by a sorceror seeking to bring absolute destruction and lifelessness.

Alyrin, you ever wonder what happens when a mortal and an Abyssal demon mate? well an Alyrin is the end result of an alarmingly short pregnancy. They grow to be on average as tall as their mortal progenitors, if not larger or taller than them, with the exception of them having unnatural shades of skin and occasional develop thin patches of fur on their bodies or an entire pelage. Some tend to have additional appendages like tentacles or extra fingers or even tails, not to mention horns on their to reveal their demonic heritage. Most are the result of Lililin, Lilith's succubus spawn, and man breeding but it's considered a omen of change if one of the True Abyssal lords to produce a spawn.

Ankou, common name Graveyard Watchers, These scythe wielding skeletal spirits guard graveyards and tombs, collecting the lost souls of the land for their journey into the afterlife. They are born from those first of the year interred in said graveyard, then are relinquished when another Ankou is born. It is considered unwise to interfere with them, especially when they drive a wooden cart hauling the deceased through villages, for they can divorce a soul from a body with ease. If you see one with a broken cart though, be kind and lend it your aide for you might find yourself in his role one day.

Aspirants, these creatures are born from souls of those who sought secrets and knowledge in their life by creating a pact with the true Abyssal Lord Vetitium, Now they serve him for all eternity. Aspirants are easily identified by their bizarre masks and their inky black robes that only cover the dark spirits that willingly follow his will. They are often used by the Unknown one to gather and collect information across the realms, but make no mistake, they are powerful with spellcasting and capable of Telepathy as well as creating illusionary copies of themselves. Other than that, they spend most of their time scribing and reading tomes, or playing one of the Abyssal Lord's strange board games.

Asriel, the First Nephalem to be born in Id, spawned from the the Yahweh and Lucifer himself, he became the Archangel of Death and embodies its aspect. In ancient times, he saw the havoc and chaos of Famine, Plague, and Pestilence without death to end their misery so he took upon the mantle of becoming the Embodiment of the Death aspect then swept across Id where he was needed to end the suffering. Using his newfound power, he created the intermediate plane of Purgatorium, or also known as Purgatory, where souls of a questionable nature could find their way to Heaven or Hell through a series of trials. He often consoles the Deceased and helps them cope with being in the afterlife.

Asura, Asura are souls who have transcended the cycle of Reincarnation and become Devas who compete for power in the Realm of Moksha by serving the Deities of the Dharmad Pantheon. They are known for watching over mortals, influencing their lives in subtle ways, and recording significant moments in their histories while taking the opportunity to learn all they can. Asuras are natural magic users but only use their divine powers to enact the will of their patron god, or else they shall turn into a Rakshana.

Atrusit, commonly known as Greed Devils whom populate the 6th layer of the Great Inferno, are quite unique in their choice of physiology and how they acquire the essence of Greed. They often inhabit Dolls, with preference towards ones made from the finest materials such as porcelain and silk, or if unable to find one, pretend to be one. Atrusit tend to prey on young children, especially those of wealthy noble families and royalty, influencing them to become greedy adults.

Baal, 1 of 72 of the Devil's Key, He is Lucifer's Assistant and Right hand man, commanding 66 legions and utilizes them to enforce the laws of the Inferno. His power is often invoked in witchcraft by those who wish to transform animals into familiars and devil-like beings such as Brachina and Gulons. Baal is considered one of the more polite and medial of all the pitlords, but will never disobey an order or a Law, though if commanded will kill to defend the The Great Inferno.

Basilisks, these massive serpents who resemble snakes in some fashion except with wings adorned on its back are truly terrifying, and are the natural enemies of Dragons. These winged beasts are rare but they have the ability to paralyze their prey with fear before envenoming them their deadly poison that kills instantly, even rumored to maim immortals as well as gods. Most of them were fortunately hunted to extinction thanks to them being mistaken for dragons, but some say that they are the ancestors of Lamia.

Beezelbub, One of the 72 Pit lords of the Inferno, He is the King of the Implings and often associate with Pestilence, Famine, and Oppression. He is the bane of clergymen of all kinds, tempting into breaking their vows and pacts while inspiring tyranny and creating Misery for all to endure. Most of his followers normally invoke him when they wish to seek vengeance,or call upon when they wish to build something for he was one of the fabled demons who was enslaved to construct Mount Edon by the Sorcerer king Salamon. He prefers to think it was one of his finest masterpieces, and consistently tries to surpass the magnificence of his handiwork, constantly building in effort to outdo himself, his pride and greed are his weakness.

Cambions, the offspring of Devils and Mortals, they are often the result of contracts coming to fruition, Infernal cults offering their bodies to satan, or a very horny Brachina on a sexual bender in the mortal world. Their appearance is very close to that of a devil and are easily mistaken for one but unlike their Diabolic progenitors, they can die a mortal death though their death often results in their reincarnation as a Devil. Cambions often have an affinity towards magic and witchcraft, particularly for summoning devils, being the natural sorcerers they are due their devilish blood. Aufernal cambions when they perish will often reincarnate as their devilish progenitor's kind and find themselves emerging from the mana well where their progenitor is bonded with.

Cherubim, These young yet powerful angels are a soul's first step to becoming an Angel in Heaven for their devout faith in the Yahweh in their life. Cherubim, otherwise known as Guard Angels, are responsible for guarding the Halos of Edon and worshippers of the yahweh who are destined to become Angels themselves. They are unfortunately often the victims of clever mortals who outwit them into doing their bidding, or succumb to their carnal desires for which they try to repent.

Djinn, in the ancient times of Id, before man was first created, the Yahweh tried her hand to create the first mortals but instead made beings of fire who denied the Yahweh when she asked them to bow to her as they did to Lucifer when he tried seducing them into joining his ranks. The First Djinn journeyed to the Cradle, where the first Mortals came to be, and where they animated the aspects of nature into the first elementals, forming their own tribes, in turn becoming elementals themselves. They would take many spouses from the stocks of human, as well as those keen enough to trap them within various vassals, forming the first Ifreet.

Drauger, the undead worshippers of the Vallahallan heroes that oft return to the realm of the living as a battle-crazed form of Revenant. They often inhabit their tombs and crypts, deterring both Grave Robbers and Clergymen from visiting their resting places. Oddly, they are often buried with Weapons and Armor, but what makes them deadly is they are resistant to frost magic and they don't stay down. Some would suggest burning their bodies, though that is against their living relatives religious beliefs and a living skard is ten times more deadly than a dead one... Or are they the same?

Dullahan, a headless undying spirit that traverses across the roads and country searching for those who've escaped Asriel's grasp on skeletal horse or on a carriage made of bone and human leather. This Malevolent Ghostly Driver in his rampage will mark those next to die by throwing blood on their victims, and lash those who see it with a Devil's tail*. Its only weakness is its fear of Satan and Gold, which can stop it dead its tracks or cause it to wreck, rendering it useless for the evening.

Elohim, while not specifically any class of angel or celestial being, this is a term used to describe the other deities of Id as well, though in Ancient times most considered those of other faiths to be demon worshippers. Most of the other Gods and Goddesses of Id didn't take kindly to be called demons, even 72 pit lords of the Devil's key despised it, which lead to long holy war of epic proportions that caused the Wuthvoy's empire to fall amongst Magraha'al's campaign across Id. Once the dust settled and the Archangels had their respect Halos of Mount Edon wrecked, they signed a pact with the dieties who embodied the aspects of the universe to ensure that nothing like this happens again, as well as them and their followers being associated with demon worship.

Erelim, or otherwise Known as Warrior angels, these valiant yet kind beings stand ready at a moment's notice to combat the forces of the Abyss and the Inferno. Ramiel, the Archangel of the Ruby Halo, is their leader and is devout follower of the yahweh, awaiting her command to begin a crusade against the forces of evil. While not the most frequently seen class of angel, some crusaders and paladins who fight for her can call upon their aide in their most dire hour.

Hashilim, commonly known as Storm Angels, who bring about thunderstorms wherever they are, they're most mysterious class of angel that exists. They are often seen wearing electrum armor and wield weapons of the same material, some theorize that they are meant hunt demons and devils, along with abominations against the yahweh. Devils are often scared by the collective signs of their presence, while some believe they are the Follower of Michael, who is also known as Zakiel, the angel of mercy.

Hablins, these hairy Hill dwelling folk are far distant cousins to both Duervs and Goblins, or maybe gnomes, No one really one knows where they came from. These 3 feet tall folk dwell in temperate hill regions underground within their burrows and hillside homes, practicing the philosophy of simplistic life though some are curious enough to explore the world outside their homes. What makes them a unique race is the tales of their Heroes that fight against all odds, and legends that may or may not be true. They do get along with most races and are keen on magic when its particularly useful.

Gamigin, 4 of 72 of the Devil's Key, Ruler of 32 legions, He is a professor of the liberal arts and is responsible for sorting the souls that arrive in hell, sending them to the appropriate ring for their greatest sin. He is often regarded as a completionist and won't leave any task assigned to him unfinished, even if he is invoked. His pride is considered his greatest weakness since he will not leave until his invoker is satisfied.

Ghaddir, mostly Known as Gluttony devils, are often considered the most vile for their habits, especially when it comes to eating. They dwell on the second layer of The Great Inferno, and torment the souls of the Gluttonous by turning them into food, then regurgitating them before consuming them in an endless cycle. Ghaddir feed upon the essence of Gluttony by consuming the Gluttonous, or by consuming pork, though many prefer the latter over people since its easier to eat a pig over a person.

Gulons, or commonly referred to as Ice devils, are the denizens of the 4th layer of Hell and the most discipline of all, adhering to Satan's Martial doctrine. From the moment of their spawning, Gulons are trained to fight and kill to the death, training for the day they are unleashed upon the mortal realms by an invoker. They feed upon wrath and those filled with it, not to mention Wraiths and vengeful spirits for whom they keep imprisoned in their ice. As Aufernals, they tend to pursue martial occupations to sate their need for some sort of battle to sate their lust for battle. Reproduction wise, they are slow breeders and in the Inferno, are encourage to pair with Brachina to compensate for their lack of lust.

Implings, most people refer to these small devils as Imps but their proper name is Implings. These are the most common, if not second most, type of Devil to be found in the Great Inferno and are known for their quick reproductive rate, especially when paired with a Brachina. Other than mating, Implings are often born from the souls of those who wish to be in hell in order to torment the spirits of the wicked and the vile. Implings will occasionally transform into other kinds of devils if they display enough of one of the seven deadly sins. They are often sent into the mortal domain to summon other devils to help in some nefarious plot.

Jörmungandr, The World Serpent, or more infamously known as the Realm Devourer, is the second oldest Dragon in Id and is the twin brother to Azarath, the dragon of Creation. He dwells at the bottom of the Abyssal Depths, then awakens every Millennia to "Devour" a world before mating with a number of Draconic maidens then descending back into resting place. Some say is the forgotten Abyssal Lord of Destruction but it is merely speculation amongst scholarly types, He has been known to speak others through dreams while he slumber and forewarn of his own Arrival.

Kitsune, Native to Paramissium, These Yokai are spirits imbued with great celestial power that is determined by the number of their tails, and gain more power as they age. Ookami herself is the Oldest living kitsune existence and is considered a Minor god amongst the Lost Paradise pantheon but is still attributed as the Goddess of Creation. Most kitsune are also known for their natural spellcasting ability, along with the immense strength of their arcane power, which makes them highly desired as familiars though one has to be clever. Most are seen as a good omen when discovered, since they tend to shapeshift to blend in with crowds and meddle in mortal affairs by becoming entangled in their communities. They are the natural enemies of Wraith's and evil spirits, but have an intense rivalry with Nogitsune. Their weakness is dogs, especially Helhounds, who can see through their facade, and they lose shape if intoxicated by alcohol.

Lamia, Half human half serpent people, these creatures are the descendants of a former queen of Dephi, who slept with god Jupitor then cursed by his wife Juno. She turned her into a serpent beneath her waist, causing her to birth to dozens of children, forcing her to eat her own offspring until the Lord of Poison, Faroka, became infatuated with her beauty then freed her from the curse. He found her morphology so magnificent, he turned himself like her and married her, producing the ancestors of modern lamia. Most Lamia dwell within warmer regions of worlds and realms due to their serpentine nature

Letuma Draa, or Lesser Dragons or drakes, the letuma are a term for the wide diversity of wild dragons that are the creations of Hircine, and often responsible for the death of many Dragon Hunters. They often dwell within the wilderness, or sometimes live in symbiosis with the Lekova as their pets, guarding their lairs from any intruders. In some cases, Mortals can tame these creatures if they're wise and patient, especially since they tend to be brainy beasts. A mortal who can ride a letuma is considered one

Lililin, commonly known as Succubi and Incubi, these abyssal demons are the spawn of Lilith, the first succubus who attempted to seduce Edom away from the yahweh and steal his soul. These sensual demons, unlike Brachina whom siphon off the essence of spirit surrounding one's soul, will utilize their natural arcane abilities to suck out a mortal's soul and "Consume" it to grant them greater seductive and corruptive powers. Most assume that once a Lililin sucks out a person's soul that they die,though that isn't true, The person in question becomes enthralled to said Lililin and they slowly become a Lililin themselves. The only way to reverse this process is to kill the Succubus or Incubus in question then return the soul to its proper body.

Malakim, known as Messenger Angels, these are most common if not secondmost common angel in the Halos, as well as the most commonly seen in the mortal domain. These angels help prevent heaven from falling in disarray by delivering messages throughout their domain and the rest of the universe, and performing various trades to ensure order. Sometimes they are sent to the mortal realms to deliver messages to chosen followers of the Yahweh, or disguise themselves to spread the faith of the Yahweh to heathens and pagans.

Mephistopheles, the Conspirator, originally one of Lucifer's generals until the day he attempted to break a sacred pact between the True Abyssal lords and the Seven Princes of the Inferno. He attempted to upsured the princes and declare himself ruler of Hell while tricking the demons of the Abyss into resuming the age old conflict. Fortunately his plot was discovered then Satan put him on Ice until the end of times, imprisoned for all eternity.

Nephalem, The child of an Angel and a Devil, the result of such of a union is very rare and few since both the Archangels and the Princes of the Inferno are highly against such children being born, though it does tend to happen every now and then. Depending on their upbringing, some Nephalem suffer from issues of Identity in regards to whether they should be a devil or angel, though some flee into the Abyss or elsewhere to escape the pressure, Some cleverly managed to figure how to balance it. Nephalem are notably powerful beings, naturally adept utilizing both light and dark magic, not to mention their natural Auras.

Nephilim, or referred to as the Children of Angels, these half mortal half angel beings are the result of when an Angel, fallen or otherwise, lays with a mortal being. While most would assume the child to be appear normal, most nephilim actually grow to be quite large individuals if not matching the size of most Giants, reaching heights of ten feet if not fiften as they mature. They are natural spellcasters when it comes to channeling Holy and Life magic, and tend to be accepted amongst their home communities, though will sometimes travel to spread the faith amongst others of their size with some mixed results. In most Engelicism creation fables, They are the ancestor race of all humans for when they laid with children of Qayin, they spurred forth the first generation of humans, though this tale is riddled with doubt.

Nogitsune, native to paramissium, these Fox Spirits are known as the source of all misery and misfortunate, their presence alone being considered bad luck. They are known for their trickery by spreading chaos via magic and deception, as well as plagues and treachery, in the name of the Nogitsune God, Yaako, whose presence alone brings disaster and death. Fortunately they have the same weakness as Kitsunes, and become easily captivated by swords left in the ground, while their negative influence can be negated by a Kitsune's presence. An ancient Myth says that if Yaako and Ookami meet, they will form to create the Star God Amarratsu who will bring light to dark land of Paramissium.

Oktokki, this type of anthropoidal Yokai of his often associated with Luna, whom to them appears as rabbit that mashes rice to make Sake and sweets. These lovely appearing creatures are both a good and bad omen, since their presence often means abundant harvests and plenty of children, but at the cost of a few bachelors and bachelorettes that are whisked away to their homes in Paramissium to be married. They often compensate the families with lavish dowries of the chosen's weight in their enchanted healing Saki. Beware though, some young Oktokki like to play mischevious tricks using their natural arcane abilities.

Oni, these large brutish creatures who often bear exotic colors of skin are the product of Humans and elves whom attempted settling in paramissium long ago that became twisted by the essence of chaos, known as Ether, that lingers in the plane. They now are a shadow of their former selves due to interbreeding with the denizens of the realm to where have become almost demonlike in appearance, reaching heights of 6 to 10 feet tall or even changing heights at will. Oni are the Ancestors of Ogres and Orcramis, providing their large stature and bulky appearance to their descendants. In most realms, Oni are considered mediocre omens since they are both good and bad luck, since giving one soybean seeds will chase out curses and hexes, along with a dancing Oni will scare away both Nogitsunes and Kitsunes.

Oslow, a Fairy demon hound affectionately known for its ability of consuming various objects and people then transporting them elsewhere in Id. Unfortunately they're rare since they often choke on objects larger than a Giant, leading to their untimely deaths due to whatever trying to eat preventing them closing their mouths. They are often found deep within the forest and jungles, especially in lands teeming with fey.

Rakshana, Devas who have strayed from the divine path and have succumbed to their malevolent desires. They are known for devouring mortal flesh, as well as other Rakshana and other demons, and causing wars, even participating in them, to satiate their lust for such things. These fallen devas are known for abusing their powers to pursue their own goals, but fortunately they can be turned back into Asura's if bested by a mortal in a duel of any nature.

Satan, the Prince of Wrath, whose true identity the Archangel of Wrath,Samael, is considered the most bizarre individual in both Heaven and Hell. He is the father of Asmodeus, also known as the fallen angel Sariel, through Lilith, and is the father of Qayin, who became the first vampire after murdering half brother Abel, a Nephilim. Samael wishes for mortals commit the seven deadly sins so he could punish them in the Great Inferno, for reasons unbeknownst to both Man and Heaven. He commands Legions of Gulons who stand ready to be unleashed upon the mortal realms, though his motives are largely unclear despite his loyalty to lucifer.

Skards, these viking humans can be found throughout The Cradle and some parts of Aesir, considering they are quite the hardy people, living in frozen tundras and northerly parts of realms. They are largely Barbarians, Pirates, and Marauders in the winter but perform their own agriculture during the warm months, and are skilled Apiculturists though use the honey to make mead and sweeten their foods. Skards aren't necessarily fond of spellcasting but prefer to use it as a tool for when it is needed, especially for healing the sick and wounded. They are fond of potion making and witchcraft, particularly since the Hero of Mischief, Loki, often utilized it against his enemies and forced them to do his bidding.

Specters, Spirits bound to object or an artifact that they treasured in their life, these Ghosts are tied to material plane due to the connection with their horcrux. Some of these specters often remember their life when living, though some suffer from partial amnesia if they suffered a traumatic death, They try to recreate some semblance of what was. In rare cases, some Sorcerors and Warlocks will attempt to cheat death by becoming a Specter as opposed to becoming a Lich, one of the living dead.

Spectres fortunately are not to bound one location since their Artifact is often incorporated into physiology or kept on their person. They often attract Lost souls and spirits who can't find their way to their appropriate after life, who become Spooks in the presence of the specter whom they attach themselves to.

Spooks, Lost souls and spirits that can't find their way to the Afterlife whom bind themselves to a Specter until they find their way to their respective heavens or hells. Most mediums and arcanists will tell you that Spooks share a symbiotic relationship with Specters by providing them spectral energy and act as ghostly servants to keep their host happy. In exchange, the Specter's focus, or their "Heart" acts a shelter and hiding place where said spirits can protect themselves from predation by hungry demons or devils out collecting souls. Spooks often take the shape of what the specter perceives other ghosts to look like, and are able to be summoned by their specter host at will.

Sybaris, The Earth Dragoness of Dephi, who was most famously for terrorizing the countryside by stealing livestock for food, and demanded a virgin boy every harvest for some reason that was lost to history. When Kyonos, the most handsome boy in the land, whom was sacrificed to tbe mountain dweller was rescued by his lover Baros, the Hero of the land. He wrestled her off the summit, throwing her to the ground below where she caused water to spring from the sheer force of the impact where the city of Dephi now stands. Sybaris found herself humbled, and a very young water dragon whom dwelled within the subterranean aquifer below, then had many little blood dragons, and taught magic to the mortals to pay for the stolen sheep.

Tamtu, or moreover known as the Dragon of Envy, is an ancient dragoness of the sea, who spawns forth all sorts of vile creatures and false gods out envy for her Iik. Long ago in Ancient times, before her soul was bound to hell, She fell in love with a Mountain dragon named Azbu, who granted many blessings to the mortals who worshipped him, even granting them almost godlike powers, who later betrayed him by slaying him. In retaliation, Tamtu slayed these bestowed mortals then birthed the first generation of Prismatic Dragons, whom later terrorized them and the rest of Id.

Vassago, affectionately known as the Devil of Fates, is 3 of 72 of the Devil's Key, known for telling fortunes to whoever invokes him and the location of particular items. Unfortunately his fortunes always backfire on whoever hears them, namely due to his curse that increase the chance of his foul predictions becoming more likely. He commands 26 legions of demons at the ready at all times.
