FROM ABOVE

angels live among us. divine creatures from a holy realm, cast out by their God for committing a crime or breaking the rules, they have been exiled and condemned to live among the mortal and coexist as one of them. to be human doesn't come without a price, however, which is why they must consume from those who have the potential to exterminate their kind. legends of vampires have risen from the way they hunt, digging sharp teeth into the necks of men and children to consume their blood and life energy, so that they can maintain their guise. when the angels run low on this energy, their being begins to dissipate around them, black strings of ooze clinging to everything it can, trying to drain its life force.

there are various ranks of angels. those that stand at the highest - the Divine - take on a human shape. The Guardians, lower ranks with the job to protect the Divine, are usually seen in the shape of canines. Finally there are Watchers, seers of the future who take on the shape of songbirds, warning the Divine of dangers to come.

there exist various clans and factions of these angels. some consider humans little more than dirt and source of energy; others virtually worship them as the source of their life force; some reject their divinity; some hunt their own kind and some sort of penitence for their own sins. the few humans that know about their existence have come to either form cults to worship and serve them, or organized themselves into angel hunters to wipe this menace from their home.

FROM ABOVE is a character-oriented verse with potential for all sorts of characters. You can organize them into clans, families, groups, or simply make your own loner. humans and angels are welcome, come up with whatever you desire and roll with it.
