Classification of angels and their origins

First of all, the celestial realm:

The celestial realm is divided into seven folds:

Day 1: Called Shiamaim, it is ruled by Gabriel.\\ The angelic group stationed here is also responsible for managing the stars, weather, etc. (Moon Heaven, the closest angel to the earth, the dwelling place of the unfaithful)

Day 2: Called Akira, the domain of the Archangel Raphael, where part of the confinement of the punished angels is also located. (Mercury Heaven: The second heaven, the soul of those who do good deeds resides in this day after death)

Day 3: Sagoon or Shehkim, the ruling angel is the right angel Anael. In Islam, Azrael, the angel of death, holds this heavenly realm. (Venus Heaven: Abode of the Souls of the Amorous)

Day 4: Zeble or Mahanon, with several different names, at the mercy of Archangel Michael. The heavenly city of Jerusalem recorded in the book of Revelation is located in the solar sky, and the book of Enoch claims that the tree of life grows in the garden of the righteous in the solar sky. (On the day of the sun, the wise and the holy are buried on this day)

Day 5: Mahon, the northern part of this day is a desolate ruin with an angel's prison, and the south is a pleasant one. The Martian Ruler is a kind of metatron twin son Sandalphon, one said to be the fallen angel Samael. (Martian day, where the souls of the martyrs are given to reside)

Day 6: Zebel or Maccon, the place where the angels learn knowledge, the base camp of the wise angels. Day and night are ruled by Zeber and Saabs, respectively. (Jupiter Heaven, the abode of the Ming King, is between hot Mars and cold Saturn, so the climate is pleasant.) ）

Day 7: Arabot, the throne of God, is set again, and the angels fly around it, as a place full of light. (Saturn Heaven: Hermit, the soul of the Fresh and Desireless dwells here)

Stellar Heaven: (St. Peter checks the qualifications of believers here)

Crystal Heaven (Prime Motion Heaven): The seat of the gods, the source of cosmic power. The base camp of the Angel Army is located in it.

Phew~ Finally finished the introduction of the 7th day, and the following is the introduction of the highlight angel. Attention, everyone.

Class of Angels: Angels are divided into nine levels

The upper three levels - the sacred class

Seraphim: Seraphim

In the Bible, the Seraphim is called Seraphim, and he is the highest ranking among the angels. The only mission of the Seraphs is to sing the praises of God (sycophants). Seraphim, God's closest envoy, means burning and serpent in Hebrew. In ancient times, it was described as flying in the heavenly realm. A God-like organism, in Judaism and Christianity, he is a character who communicates directly with God, a spirit who is pure light and thinking. He holds great majesty and prestige among the angels. He is known as the "spirit of love and thought". The Seraph's commanders have many theories, most of which are inseparable from Uriel, Medanzo, Carmel, Nathanael, Gabriel, and so on.

It is recorded in the Book of Enoch. The Seraphs are a combination of four monarch-level angels, corresponding to the winds of the south, east, west, or four directions. The four arch-angels are Medanzo (before the banishment of Satan), Kamel, Nathanael, and Gabriel: among them, Medanzo and Gabriel are the lower archangels: another theory is that the Seraphs are only the community of these two archangels, and the higher angels and the lower archangels are confused with each other, and there are many situations where they belong to each other, especially the two classes of Seraphs and Zhitian. However, three simple explanations can be deduced: First, when these four great monarchs (or two archangels) appeared before the throne of God, they took off the bodies of their lower angels and became formless and insubstantial seraphims. The two Seraphs are the other side of the Four Great Monarchs or the Two Archangels. The three Seraphs are formless and insubstantial. However, there can be a variety of embodied metaplasias. Or, rather than being one of the celestial times, the Seraphs are some particularly shining angels, synonymous with their honor.

The Seraphic Invisible Object, with which it vibrates to create life. If you have to be in front of someone. It appears in the form of six wings and four songs (there are also two songs). Judaism and Christianity describe it as having six wings and holding a flaming dagger inscribed with the praise of Sanctus as a commanding banner. Isaiah, the great prophet of ancient Israel's war-torn times, described witnessing the Seraph before the throne of God: "I saw the Lord sitting on a high throne. His garments hung down and covered the temple. There was a Sarah whisk on it. Each has six wings. Cover your face with two wings and your feet with two wings. Two wings fly. Say to one another, "Holy, holy." O holy, the LORD of hosts, his countenance fills all the earth." Because of the cry of this cry, the foundations of the threshold vibrate, and the temple was filled with a cloud of smoke. (Isaiah 6:5) thus leaves the legend of the six-winged posture. As soon as the Seraphs open their eyes, they let out a roar like a lion. And emitted a red electric light across the sky, shaped like a long snake. Gu Qi is an angel who often flies by the throne of the pig and sings praises all the time.

In the early works of ancient people, it was expressed as a spirit with peacock-like feathers on its body. The Hebrew word for Seraphic Angel is a portmanteau of "Healer" and "Most High" (or guardian angel), so the snake or dragon has been a symbol of medicine since ancient times (some hospitals or military doctors use the painting of two snakes wrapped around a rod as a symbol)

Angel of Wisdom: cherbim

The Angels of Wisdom are the guardians of the Garden of Eden. (Cui Weiju novel)

In both Judaism and Christianity, it is believed that he was sent to the east of Eden after God expelled Adam and Eve from Eden, holding a whirling sword of flame to guard the tree of life. The Angel of Wisdom was the first angel to appear in the Bible and ranked him as the second highest angel in the heavenly throne phase. The wise angel may have been taken from the legend of Babylon, or the legend of the fertile crescent moon in the Middle East long before the founding of the Hebrew nation and the Babylonians.

There are many contradictions in the account of the wise angels, because the angels of this level were incarnated by Judaism in the borrowing of pagan gods, and were not really formed until after the formation of Christianity, so the previous descriptions inevitably had their own words. For example, Psalm 18 records that God came on the occasion of the wise heavens, but when the system of angels was completed, this mission was assigned to the next level of angels. In an earlier version of the Hebrew legend, it is said that "the wise angel has four wings and four faces, carrying the throne of God and driving the chariot of God", which is also said in the medieval work "Paradise Lost", which says that the chariot of God is driven by a four-faced angel, with a human face in front and an eagle face in the back. The left is a lion's appearance, and the right is endowed with a cow's face. It is not wrong that the wise angels are the guardians of the holy relics: the tree of life in the Garden of Eden and the ark of the covenant of God. Instead of singing the praises of God's holiness, which vibrates with love and fire, wise angels vibrate with support and wisdom.

In many Baroque buildings. A multi-winged angel carved with a spherical shape. It is the appearance of the wise angels since the Middle Ages, and the reason for its formation cannot be verified. Interestingly, the Roman mythology of Cupid is the winged image of a young boy, who is identified by Christianity as a wise angel in the form of a human.

Angel Seat: ofanim

In the Old Testament classic, the book of Ezekiel, there is a very detailed description of the angels. Seraphs and Angels of Wisdom are supposed to be angels in the innermost ring of the formal angelic system, disembodied beings. It is impossible to describe the appearance at all, but later generations have visualized it. If the Blazing and Wise Angels maintain their pure spiritual existence, the Angels located on the third or fourth day should be the interface between the material shijie and the kingdom of God, and the basis and source of the material shijie. Judaism seems to believe that all the ancestors of the Hebrews ascended to heaven. Gather into an angel. The second theory has not been adopted by Christianity. However, the ruler of the heavens, or the embodiment of the cloud man, that is, the archangel Raphael, Yafjie does not directly name the name due to the description in the Bible, including the Seraph, the wise angel, and the angel are confused in many places. However, in the description of the "four living creatures" in the first chapter of the Book of Zezekiel (Ezekiel 4-14), the theologians regard them as wise angels, but the description of the "four wheels" in verses 15 and 25 is also an angel seat, which can only be said to be the wise angel and the angel descending with God! The wise angel is designated as the "throne of God," and the angel is the "chariot of God," that is, the chariot of God.

The angel is the wheel of a god with a hundred eyes and a pale color. The description of Ezekiel's four wheels in the book of Ezekiel is as follows: "Next to the face of the living creature, one wheel landed on the ground / The four wheels are one pattern." The shape and practice, like a wheel in a wheel. There are eyes around the four axles, and when the living creatures walk, the wheels follow suit. The living creatures rose from the earth. The wheels are also rising. Where the spirit goes, the living creatures go. For the spirit of the living creature is in the wheel. "The spirit refers to God. The living creature is an angel of wisdom.

Intermediate 3 - the stage of the sub

Lord Angel: Dominions

The Lord Angel, which means "to rule" and "lead" in English, is also known as "Lordship", and the "General Theology" refers to his position as "managing the work of angels". He is quite passionate about the universe ruled by God, and carries out God's commands to shine God's prestige to the world, and the rulers of this level of angels, such as the memory angel Randekill, etc.

Angel of Force: Virtues (Cui Weiju novel)

Angels of strength are angels who give courage and work tirelessly to remove obstacles. In addition, the power angel has jurisdiction over some natural natural phenomena and the energy of the star shijie. And the most direct impact on people is to be able to do telepathy with all shijie people, using the liliang of the mind to connect all the consciousness of the whole shijie, when you want to give your consciousness to others to know, you must go through the liliang of the force angel. Force Angels also know what people need at all times.

Angels of Energy: powers

The Angels of Power were the first angels created by God to be the frontrunners of the Celestial Realm during the war with demons. Paul's exhortation in Romans 13 may be speaking of angels. Angels at this level inhabit the danger zone between the first and second day, and are responsible for the important task of defending the kingdom of heaven (the Celestial Garrison), guarding against demonic invasions, or protecting the balance of the human heart in the human heart. However, the contact between the Mighty Angels and the demons is frequent, and as a result, some fallen angels have also been produced. However, perhaps the true purpose of the fallen angels of power is to reconcile gods and demons. The monarch of the Angels of Power is Carmel, and just like the Angels of Power are both good and evil, Carmel also appears as an angel of light and an angel of falls.

The lower three levels – the class of the Holy Spirit

Right Angel: principalitier

The Angel of Power can be said to be the only angelic stage with the "realm" as its position. Divide its shili range according to secular countries, cities, religious groups. Therefore, many of the angels of power were converted from the slander of pagan gods. For example, Nislok (the vulture-headed god of Assyria) was a famous warrior among the angels of power. In "Paradise Lost", it is narrated that the Angels of Power directly lead the angelic legions and the demon legions in battle.

As a seventh-order angel, it is already clearly a personified symbol, the so-called "watchdog of human guidance, absolutely carrying out the justice of God." As the leader of the legion, the Angels of Power are almost always heavily armed generals.

Archangels: archanagels

Many people who have no concept of Western religion know one or two archangels, which shows how well-known archangels are. In the Book of Revelation, it is recorded that there are seven angels standing before the throne of God, which is generally interpreted as seven archangels (Islam only recognizes four). As for the weishenme, the name is a lower angel. But with such a high status in the Angel Legion, and even recommending several high-level angel group monarchs, it can only be said that the classification of the nine levels does not represent the level of status or the amount of importance. Whether there are seven archangels or four archangels next to God, the names are not very certain. Michael and Gabriel were the most desirable candidates, and Raphael and Uriel were the most likely candidates. If it is the occasion of the seven archangels. Medanzo, Lemuel, Shayeli, Yanar. Raguil and Rachel are the more common names. However, the Arsenites believed that there were at least fourteen archangels, corresponding to the seven branches and seven roots of their tree of life, seven days and seven nights.

Angel; Angels (Cui Weiju novel)

As we all know, angels. Its English name: angel, is derived from the Greek angelos = messenger. Angel is "messenger" in Hebrew, "secret messenger" in Persian, and the original Greek word means "messenger" The name and office of the angel are most detailed in the Book of Enoch, but even in the thirteenth century, when angelology was at its peak, the complete Book of Enoch was not seen, and the original version of the Book of Enoch was only found in the church in Syria in the eighteenth century.

Since today's doctrines are derived from Jewish legends, it is not surprising that they have a strong historical overtone of ancient Israel. For example, the commanders of the angels and the archangels were divided into ancient Israel and the patron saints of the great neighbors. Michael – Israel, Debel (the god of bears) – Persia, Rahabo – Egypt, Samael – Roman Empire, Aon – Greece. Of course, except for Michael, the guardian angels of the rest of the nations became fallen angels and enemies of God for different reasons. In addition to the formal ones, a group of fallen angels led by the demon king Satan. It is another kind of controversial existence.

Angels are spirit creatures born to serve the gods of the higher dimensions, or to assist the gods in punishing those who disobey the will of the gods. In other words. Angels are like God's terminals on earth, so angels often appear in wings and shining postures, but sometimes they also appear in armed form. In temples or labyrinths, there are often records of angelic appearances, and most of the angels in the records are disembodied spirits, which means that there are very few examples of angels appearing in the test.

"Give me a halo and I'm an angel, give me a phenol fork and I'm a demon" is a very classic sentence. The word angel has been very popular in recent years, especially in fantasy novels, and the probability of appearing is high and scary, but I think there are very few people who can really understand them, because the angels written in their books have some mistakes of one kind or another, I hope you can read my Dongdong can let everyone know more about angels, and there can be fewer mistakes in future writing.

By the way, by the way, tell them about the origin of the word angel!

The term angel comes from Western religions, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, and they all have similar interpretations of angels, they are the spirit of God, God sends them to help those in need, to convey God's will, and to be God's spokesman on earth. To put it bluntly, angels are messengers from heaven.

There are very few books on Shijie that introduce angels, and the most famous are the following: The Treatise on the Heavenly Hierarchy by the Greek Dionigilareopagita, the General Theological Treatise by the Italian Thomas Daquinos, the Celestial System of Orders by Dionysus, and the Book of Enoch, which is listed as a pseudo-canon by Christianity. In particular, in 947, a Bedouin shepherd boy discovered these scriptures written on parchment in a cave near the Dead Sea in Palestine, and after scientific firmness, it was confirmed that they were copied some time before and after the Common Era, and it is known as the Dead Sea Documents.

The formation and death of vampires

According to legend, everyone could theoretically become a vampire after death, but certain people were particularly likely, such as excommunicated people, suicides, violent deaths, wizards, babies who died young, and people who did not have a Christian funeral after their death. Some people are born destined for this tragic fate, such as those who are born with teeth in their mouths, or who have "a fetal membrane on their head" (that is, a piece of amniotic membrane or placenta covering the top of their head), who have very dark or pale blue eyes, and who have reddish-brown hair. Like Judas, the apostle who betrayed Jesus, or with red spots on his body.

After death, these people need to be doubly careful when putting them in coffins and burying them. In Romania, the locals used a nail to drive into the forehead of the deceased and pierced his body with a needle. Or apply fat to pigs slaughtered on Saint-Ignace Day, which falls on 1 February. Commemorate the Bishop of Antioch, Syria, Ignatius. In order to prevent the vampire's soul from returning to possess the body, a thing is placed in the mouth of the dead, such as a clove of garlic in Romania and a piece of bread from the sacrament in Greece. And in Saxony it is a lemon. In order to keep the body from leaving the grave, everyone nailed it to the bottom plate of the coffin.

In the Sudetenland Mountains of northern the Czech Republic, corpses are wrapped in bags of thread shaped like stockings, and vampires can only break one mesh a year. In Russia, some poppy seeds are placed in the coffin. As a result, the vampire had to count the number of seeds every night. Suicides and expulsions are always buried at the intersection of two roads after death. Serbs often tarred crosses on doors and windows to protect their homes from vampires, while Romanians hung garlic cloves in all rooms and used garlic to wipe windows, doors, fireplaces, and keyholes. As for Russia, poppy seeds or rose thorns were scattered on all roads leading to cemeteries, so that vampires had to pick them up one by one.

"Overhaul". Death of a vampire

In order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, it is necessary to pierce the heart of the vampire with a stake. In Russia it is made of aspen wood, which is used to make crosses. In other countries, the use of slag trees is reminiscent of the crown of thorns worn by Jesus at the time of his crucifixion. As for those in the Dalmatia region of Yugoslavia, and in Albania. Instead, he used a dagger that had been blessed by a priest.

The Romanians call this ritual "grandereparation" and it takes place at dawn. The person presiding over the ceremony must stab the heart with a stake, otherwise the vampire may be resurrected. If the body does not turn into ashes, the head is cut off with a grave-digging shovel. Then burn the body to ashes and fly it in the wind, or bury the body at the intersection of the two roads.

Whether superstitions are over

At the end of the 18th century, in German and French universities and literary salons. Vampire superstitions are still an important topic. However, what used to be nerve-wracking supernatural events is now rare. The positivist view brought about by the Enlightenment also spread in the most remote parts of Europe. After the era of the plague pandemic passed, vampire superstitions gradually faded. Vampires were still written in the 19th century, but they were not as well known as they once were. After the industrialization of Europe, people's lifestyles gradually changed, and the old superstitions gradually disappeared. However, in the Carpathian region, vampire superstitions still exist today.

The Enlightenment promoted the spirit of science and rationality, dispelling rumors about vampires, but it did not stop people from giving them various faces in the imagination. In order to oppose the ubiquitous materialist positivism, to express nostalgia for the magical and wonderful things of the past, the Romantic literary movement was along, and the vampire legend soon revived. As early as 1748, a German named Ossenfelder wrote a short poem that foreshadowed the imminent resurrection of vampires through literature.

Noble, graceful, pale and lonely poet of the night.

A vengeful spirit full of resentment and unwilling to rest.

Legends about vampires have been circulating since the beginning of time—a bloodthirsty creature born from a graveyard as an undead demon possessed by human flesh. Whether it's the hometown of the vampire Earl, Hungary in Eastern Europe, Hong Kong, the complex Asian dragon, New Delhi in India, or even the New World full of unknowns and hopes after crossing the ocean, people all over Shijie have experienced this kind of terrifying but irresistible fear. Vampires are ubiquitous in literature, on film and television shows, in clothing and entertainment, and even in nutritious cereals for breakfast.

But those rumors are nothing more than the product of the superstition and ignorance of the predecessors.

Vampires are mythical creatures, right?

Wrong.

Vampires have been around us since prehistoric times. They are still everywhere today. Stay with us. From the first night in their memory, they had experienced a terrible secret struggle. The final outcome of this eternal struggle will determine the bright future of the entire human society – or the endless eternal night.

From the Bible to Anlese - The Background of the Thousand Years of Hidden Background (Cui Weiju Novel)

Bramstoker's vampire count Dracula is generally considered a classic of vampire literature. It tells the story of a young lawyer who is hired by Drogula to enter the Count's eerie castle, and then the strange events that happen to him, and finally the protagonist and his friends work together to open the Count's coffin in sunny daylight, kill it with vampire nemesis such as a pointed stake and garlic, and then escape. This horror novel, completed in the late 19th century (1897), dominated almost all vampire stories for the next 80 years.

A millennium-laden vampire legend. Cain's natural punishment was that he had to live on fresh food for the rest of his life

Blood. and immortality, tormented by this curse from generation to generation. And God made his mark visible to everyone, which is different from what is written in the Bible. Later in the book, he is paired with Lilith, Satan's lover, and says that Lilith is a witch with great power. and taught Cain how to use blood to produce liliang for his own use. Because of this, some people believe that Lilith is the real first vampire.

Vampires do not call themselves vampires, but usually refer to themselves as kindreds. For a mortal to become a member of the Bloodline, he must first go through the process of embrace. In other words, he had to be sucked out of his body by a member of the Bloodline. Then immediately accept the bloodline to feed the blood on the body (even if it is only a few drops) to become a newborn bloodline.

The Embrace brings very strong feelings, mixed with feelings of horror and ecstasy, and this experience will never be forgotten by the Bloodline.

Once you become a member of the Bloodline, you gain immortality, or a living dead. The Bloodline is a creature different from humans, and its body organization has undergone a complete transformation. The Bloodline's teeth can be drawn at will, though most of the time they are hidden to disguise their identity. When the Blood Clan sucks blood, all they have to do is lick the wounds of the victims. The wound can be healed to cover the marks. The heart of the blood clan stops beating, and the blood in the body flows in a dilated manner, and because the microvessels no longer contain blood, the skin of the blood clan is particularly pale. Sometimes, I even shed bloody tears when I cried. Bloodlines can use the blood in their bodies to heal themselves. When injured, the blood in the body will concentrate on the wound, and the wound will glow purple near the wound, and it will heal quickly.

Bloodlines don't have to eat. But we need to keep sucking the blood. When the Bloodline Feels?#124; When hungry, there will be a strong craving for fresh blood. The intensity of this desire is beyond the reach of mortals. Although mortals have all kinds of desires,

But compared to the hunger and thirst of the Bloods, it was nothing. The bloodline's desire for fresh blood, which overrides the desires of eating, breeding, and ambition, is the sum of all desires. Sucking blood can bring wonderful feelings to the Bloodline, and like taking drugs, the Bloodline is usually in pain but unable to restrain the obsession.

The Bloodline's body is inhabited by a wild beast, as ?#124; When thirst erupts, you may fall into a rage without self-control. The bloodline that has not yet fully absorbed into the beast nature is often haunted by this. Many of the new Bloodline members have tried to find a balance between humanity and beastliness, and some even believe that there will eventually be a way back to humans. However, the Bloodline has become a reality, and most of the Bloodline members can only watch as they gradually fall, eventually becoming mad beasts. Being a monster, but desperately trying to stop himself from being more like a monster is the contradiction that most of the new bloods have in their hearts. The possibility of redemption is extremely slim, but it does not seem entirely hopeless.

Eventually, death may be another way out. The Bloodline will still die, and the original source of life -—— the sun, which can completely destroy the Bloodline, and the dead Blood will be reduced to ashes in an instant. Facing the fear of the sun, it often makes the Bloods unable to control their own frenzy. (Cui Weiju novel)

Vampire (Race)

Malkavian: This race is not very fortunate in that it seems to have collected thousands of years of God's curse, but perhaps it is because of their hatred and murder that they have developed a great sense of observation. It is no exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration. There is hardly anything on this shijie that escapes their eyes. If you feel a threat from an unknown source in the dark, then there is a good chance that a vampire of this race is watching you from around a corner.

Brnjah: To put it mildly, this race resembles humans. Loose, undisciplined and belligerent. I guess it's okay - don't mess with the vampires of this clan, even if anything. They're not vegetarians.

Toreador: This one is very elegant and has a fascinating face. They are in the middle of the upper classes. Appears noble and personable. their food source. They are also the sons of princes and nobles. And he picks a handsome boy or a beautiful lady to start. In a word, they like tender. Hehe. The two handsome and unassuming protagonists in "Interview with the Vampire" belong to this race.

Tremere: Strictly speaking, this race is not an orthodox vampire, as many of its members were former human wizards. So other races are reluctant to recognize their legitimate vampire status - if vampires have a law. Of course, this race occupies an important place among vampires with its powerful magic. And they don't like to cause trouble, they are a group of vampires who don't like to suck blood.

Gangrel: Two words that sum up their characteristic: beasts. Lonely like an animal. Calm, silent and ferocious. Anyway, I'm keeping a grudge against this race, because their beastly logic doesn't seem so easy to understand.

Ventrue: They are the leaders of the Secret Alliance (this alliance will be introduced in a moment). Like and good at politics, I think they have a soft spot for the rotten, suffocating air of politics. However, due to the cruelty prescribed by their status, their entry into politics poses a great threat to humanity. I'm sure you all know what I mean.

Nosferatu: They have a hideous face, and their ugliness makes them hidden, but also united and motivated. Modest and cautious, and has a very strong eavesdropping ability. Just like human thieves, of course, high-quality thieves.

The above seven races form a coalition of secret parties, and there are several precepts that must be observed. That's what the information in the Demon World says. I'll briefly mention it again.

1. Masquerade: Generally, vampires of the Secret League cannot let humans know their vampire identity. Unless necessary. Don't conflict with humans, and if you see people, you can disguise yourself as a human. Of course, coming out to suck blood is another matter. (Cui Weiju novel)

2. Domain: Each clan has its own territory and has the right to self-control in its own territory. To gain the respect of outsiders, the Elder has the right to execute vampires and trespassers within the clan.

3. Progeny: You can't embrace it at will. The development of descendants should be approved by the elders, but this is not so well enforced.

4. Accounting: The vampire who develops himself has the responsibility of education, and bears all the mistakes he makes.

5. Hospitality: It is consistent with Article 2. Vampires are required to respect their lord when entering another clan's territory and obey the orders of their elders.

6. Destruction: Killing a person of the same kind without authorization. It's the same as the rules of human beings.

These six commandments are only observed by the Esoteric Alliance, which means that there are six other races that can ignore it. That's why those six tribes are very dangerous. There is no explanation of this situation in the Demon Realm materials.

The opposite of the secret alliance is the Demon Alliance, and they have only one precept, that is, there is no precept. These include:

Tzimisce: Very learned, intelligent, and possessed very strong magic, but not as good as the Tjere of the Esoteries. They are very similar to the Demon Seven Monarchs of the Demon Realm (not here).

Lasombra: Elegant and cruel, the kind of guy who wants to pose when he kills. Self-absorbed and very disgusting. The most terrible thing is that they are proud of the moderation of the first embrace, and take reproduction as pleasure. Fortunately, they do not educate their descendants to be like them, otherwise the joke would have been too big.

The remaining four races remain neutral, namely:

Ravnos, Assamate, Giovanni, Followerofset

The Six Commandments of Vampires

The Six Commandments are the legal foundation of vampire society. It is believed to have originated from the war in which the second generation was slaughtered. The war has not left a record, but it has not been forgotten either, and every blood clan knows more or less. Even vampires who flout the commandments know this history, and while their words vary, their intentions speak for themselves.

The master before approving the elevation of the offspring from a chick to a newborn. Have your offspring repeat the six commandments. This has become a common practice in the Hidden Alliance. Some princes will plan grand ceremonies for this purpose, but many princes will not witness it at all, and will completely carry it out on their own. Almost all of the descendants do memorize the Six Commandments before the release ceremony, but the repetition ceremony still holds a significant symbolic significance in the Hidden Alliance. Loyal followers of the Secret League and the Commandments still hold on. If the newly sucked Bloodclan has not yet learned the Six Commandments from its master, it cannot be considered a true vampire. Obviously, the commandments must be taken seriously. The master is responsible for his offspring, and until he has completed the precepts, he is given the responsibility of complete self-discipline.

The Six Commandments:

The First Commandment: Hidden (themasquerade)

Thou shalt not reveal the origins of thy blood to those who are not of my kind. Whoever violates this commandment shall be driven away from his bloodline and cut off his blood.

The Second Commandment: Thedomain

Territory is your right and responsibility. Whoever enters your realm must obey you, and shall not provoke disobedience.

The Third Commandment: Theprogeny

If you wish to have children, you must obtain permission from the elders. Those who give birth without permission will be killed immediately by the owner and the chicks.

The Fourth Commandment: Duty (theaccounting)

Whatever you bring, you are your youngsters. Before she is released, she will be at your mercy, and you will bear her guilt.

The Fifth Commandment: Hospitality

Thou shalt salute one another. to unfamiliar territory. Those who are not summoned to recognize their residence are regarded as nothing.

The Sixth Commandment: Destruction

It is strictly forbidden for the Bloodline to kill each other. Only the elder can kill, and only the longest can summon the Blood Hunt

（bloodhunt）。

Some vampires believe that the commandments were created by Cain himself when he was raising children, while modern vampires follow the wishes that their ancestors placed on them. Others, however, may believe that the commandments were created by the ancient Jains. It is used to control offspring, or to think that the commandments are just some common sense of survival, and because they are useful, they have been passed down for thousands of years. The Hidden Commandments, for example, were originally present in some form on the night of the Firstcity. Only later it changed due to the Inquisition.

Some young vampires, living in modern times, see the commandments as a means for elders to control their offspring and maintain their power. And it's an archaic and obsolete means. In this era, there is no need for latent hiding, and the reasons for the need for latent are history. Cain, Gehenna, and the Ancient Jans are nothing more than myths, similar in substance to the Flood or the Tower of Babel, created to control the younger generation. Therefore, it is time to discard these old commandments and keep up with the new ones. This is the central belief of the vampires of the Demon Feast Alliance, who spit on the commandments and constantly attack ancient power structures.

Most elders thought that these young men were strong and knew everything, but lacked the experience and wisdom of time. Since many of the rebels are anarchs and new students, most of whom have no power in the Bloodline society, and are soft-spoken, it is no wonder that they are so rude. However, not every elder has the same idea, and many believe that these imps may take control of mortal society, and it is not impossible that the commandments will be abolished. The role of natural selection sometimes gives these people some chances, but occasionally a prince intervenes when he is provoked by a reckless young Bloodline.

Then is the most common term used in the commandments. Keep in mind that this is the language used by elders or in formal settings. Terminology may vary depending on the clan, age and context. When the heir is presented to the prince during the release ceremony, he may have to repeat the commandments to prove that the master has indeed taught them.

The organization of vampires

Because of loneliness, Cain created his offspring, which is the second generation of vampires. The second generation of vampires has 13 offspring. These 13 people are known as third-generation vampires. The third generation of vampires is a survivor of Noah's Flood. They founded 13 different vampire clans and rebelled against their parents, the second generation of vampires.

The third generation of vampires is almost as old as humans are, and their abilities increase with age. By now, their liliang is almost the same as a god. Before the Middle Ages, vampire clansmen often fought for power with each other due to their special abilities and immortality (as was the case with the wars of 1484 and 1710). The Inquisition of the Catholic Inquisition recognized the existence of vampires and went on a hunting spree. While the Vampire Clan has abilities, it can't withstand the cooperative attacks of hundreds of people at once. The survival of the entire vampire clan is in an unprecedented crisis.

Under these conditions, the seven vampire clans began to form an alliance with each other to form the Camarilla, which established six traditions for vampires, requiring the vampires in the alliance to abide by them for eternity.

In addition to the secret party, another alliance of vampires is the demon party. The entire Demon Alliance is controlled by two clans. The Demon Party Alliance does not recognize the Six Commandments of the Secret Party. Their means of domination are mainly force and blood. Legend has it that the new vampire members will be buried alive in fear, and then bound by bloodbound. The battle between the Demon Party and the Secret Party has been going on. Conflicts occur from time to time.

There are also four clans that remain neutral in the fight. In fact, the entire vampire family is divided into several alliances to fight against each other, and the biggest victims of the battle are usually humans.

Vampires have different abilities and characteristics

No Shadow: In some areas of Germanic culture, it is believed that vampires have no shadow, and that both shadow and image are symbols of the soul, so vampires do not have a shadow and a reflection in the mirror without a soul.

Long, sharp canine teeth: Vampires usually suck blood out of their victims' necks with their teeth, and some are able to hide this trait in normal states - this has become one of the most important characteristics of vampires. It should be said that this belongs to the imagination of literary scholars, because this was not the case with early vampires, who did not need to come into contact with people, and could suck blood through the pores of their skin.

Ability to transform into bats: Vampires are currently associated with bats, and they are often surrounded by bats, which can transform into vampires themselves. In fact, vampires can transform into many animals, as well as into inanimate forms such as mist.

Tombs and coffins as habitats: During the day, vampires tend to rest in coffins or graves, existing as corpses. It is active only after the sunlight is gone. This is a common and undisputed vampire trait, and it is believed that vampires are afraid of sunlight.
