Malus: The World Slushu Dwells In

Species and races

THIS is a very large work in progress. I freely can add in species and races as I please.

Humans (overworld original) - 

Very similar to ourselves, except have powers in rare cases. Hair and skin tones still are very basic. Hair and eyes could VERY RARELY be different colors than we see today. Though, they originally were birthed of weak angels and old heaven's crust.

Were(animal)(from hell original)- 

This consists of any breed of animal, to any race of human. They can fluently shift between all phases. Human to werewolf. Eyes and hair have more variety. Commonly seen: Werewolves, weredog, werelynx, werecat... They are commonly classified by their latin roots. Werecanis is an example. 

These beings are from the 4th ring in hell (based on dantes inferno) GREED. They don't classify as demons because they are a part of the "flora and fauna" of hell, as all animals aren't classified as humans. They tend to take after their animal breed, so if wolves tend to be strong and fast.. so will the werewolf. Though, size depends on diet and space to grow. 'Battle' wolves are a subtype, and were purely meant for combat (compare to Athenians and the Spartans. They combine wisdom with strength).

Orcs (hell original) -

Also called "giants", they are traditionally 7'-14' tall. Some runts tend to be 6'. Their skin color varies by sub species. They traditionally do not have hair, so they could make wigs if they so chose. Large framed, but generally isolated. Not very social. Some can be born to only have 1 eye. Lives are casually centuries long. They rarely reproduce. 

Vampires (hell and partially overworld original) -

They are certainly uncommon beings, and have 3 subtype categories to divide powers into based on bloodline. They drink blood to gain their nutrients and replenish energy. They physically cannot absorb the nutrients in food, so consuming blood is the only way to absorb (PREBROKEN DOWN FROM BLOOD) nutrients. Its common for vampires to eat the human besides just drink the blood, though its seen as ravenous. Some vampires will literally drain the whole body and crush flesh or organs to make up a bloody tea to consume. 

Their powers are similar to a demon's, and can be good at mind control or hypnotizing. Though, every race has the ability to practice that magic.. But not everyone can, neither everyone can genetically be immune to mind games.  Vampires tend to be fast, though the only way to kill one would be to destroy its internal. Its not common for vampires to be able to reproduce, and that has to do with the astronomical magnetic pull affecting things. 

Demons (hell and overworld original) -

Demons are divided into different categories..

There are alot of variation in demons, from colors to shapes and forms, to powers and abilities.

Common demons in the overworld are called shadow demons. These guys live in dreams, in shadows. Their abilities are fantastic for mind games, self doubt, harmful thoughts, or mind control. In hell there's succubus, incubus, grim reapers, fake gods, devils, skin crawlers, phantoms.

In the overworld, skin crawlers tend to inhabit humans or animals. Depending on the skill level of the skin crawler, it can preform a perfect procedure to become one with the flesh.. Or it can be mutilated, as the wendigo or zombie is born into folklore. Not all skin crawlers intend ill, some crave a perfect life form to perfectly interact with. Which is why they only breed in hell during winter and die in hell the following spring. The offspring either dies within the womb, or eats its way out if it lives. 

Phantoms actually behave as a luring creature, their reasons vary on their own judgement. These creatures are very vengeful, and fairly unjust. You would become bound to them if you bonded with one. One memorable phantom would be la larona. 

Beastman demons are similar to werewoles, but very demented. They are summonable (like other demons), but they can only shift between a beasted out figure to their normal demon form. Their anatomy is partially close to the typical demon, but they lack a nose and have more of an animalistic set of legs. When beasted out, their muscles rapidly grow. Their blood pressure raises, as there is more blood circulating very fast. They have wide, yet thin and VERY slanted eyes. Similar to a snake-fox eye. This helps them see more on the sides. All beastmen have a singular beastman mark from birth. If their race is under 70% beastman, theyll loose the mark and their perfected beast form (causing it only to affect certain parts of the body only, almost like eczema). 

Angels (heaven original)-

Angels are the only thing that occupies heaven, as old heaven fell upon Earth to cover the rock and magma. (IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT HEAVEN AND HELL ARE FROM PARALLEL UNIVERSES). An angel is existent purely to keep hell at its own gates. The king of hell is not allowed to claim their land. Though, humans were given the new land once heaven shed its layer onto the planet, it still is angelic property. 

Angels are good natured unless they are fallen angels. Fallen angels get a choice in their life, and only an angel falls when it has done something against the good deeds. When it commits the following: greed, gluttony, or unrighteous homicide (or any form of intentional murder).. It takes a toll on the angel and causes it to fall if their bad out weighs the good. They can be redeemed. 

Valkyries exist on the angel behalf, protecting the gates of heaven. Commonly excused for their crimes, and fantastic fighting skills. 

 Angels cannot be summoned, nor do they hear prayers.
