Archangel –  or Archs', are higher demons with large wings – larger than normal angels. They are extremely intelligent, but some have a soft spot for humanity. They are often commanders, leaders. They are divided into two groups: Fallen Archangels (those who fell from Heaven) and Heaven Archangels (those who choose to stay in Heaven)

Ben' elohim – is an ancient greeting used among angels. It means – sons of god, angels. After the war started it hasn't been used by almost anyone, except Caelestis.

Caelestis – was an Archangel who fell because of Lucifer. She was his best friend, and a higher rank than him. She had bright red hair and her name means of the Sky, Heavenly.

Demonologia – is a philosophy, a way of ranking the demonic creatures:

1.      High Class Demons: Archangels

3.      Low Class Demons: demons who are turned by a high ranking demon, or who are so dark and evil that they turn into a demon after they die

Grigori – are angels Watchers. They are middle class demons, they answer to Archangles, and they are used as soldiers or pawns. They are highly effected by a philosophy of their commanding Archangel.

Travel jumping – is an ability of High and some Middle Class demons, mostly Archangels and Grigori. It provides them with traveling large spaces and distances in a blink of an eye.

Vampire – in this story vampires are middle class demons. They are not alive anymore, but not quite dead yet. They don't feel as much as humans, but not so little like angels. They must drink blood at least every three months, and they do not burn on sunlight – they only age faster, as human skin also ages if struck by sun too much.
