Fallen Angels

Fallen Angels are a subspecies of angels or otherwise a corrupted form of angels similar to the degeneration of elves also knowns as dark elves. They are often considered as the unofficial fourth race in the monster girl quest universe.

They also are referred to as 'demons' by their heavenly counterparts although in the game there is little to no mention of this. It can be assume that the descendants of an angel and a human or an angel already fallen with a human partner can be referred as a demon or otherwise fallen angel since they are no longer considered to be 'pure'.

The main protagonist Luka is also considered to be a fallen angel.

Origin
A fallen angel comes to be when they fall from grace and are banished by the heavens ruled by their goddess Ilias.

This happens because of various reasons, such as simply betraying the goddess or following one's own agenda. According to Micaela , the very first angel to fall from grace is Lucifina who ironically is also one of the very first angels to come into existence when Ilias split her soul into several parts. Lucifina who fought together with her sister Micaela against the forces of the first monster lord and dark god Alipheese Fateburn I (the first) and the six ancestors in a great and terrible war that lasted for centuries.

Witnessing the destruction caused by the war and the brutality displayed by her master, Lucifina decided to no longer support the cause of annihilation of the monster race in fear that Ilias might destroy the whole world and all living things with it. Especially Humans who were caught in the middle of the fray.

After that Lucifina betrayed Ilias and went to live undercover among the earthly races of the world mostly among humans. Where eventually she met her future husband Marcellus who she had a child with called Luka.

Her sister Micaela was ordered by Ilias to hunt down the traitor since Lucifina was a powerful entity that could not be left unchecked. However her love for her sister was stronger than her loyalty towards her master and eventually Micaela herself betrayed the goddess and became a fallen angel herself.

It was after that point more and more angels fell from grace and became fallen angels. a population in the hundreds if not thousands, Micaela eventually founded a sanctuary for her kin called Enrika a small secluded village located on the continent Ilias consisting of the largest population of fallen angels in the world shared by a sizable group of elves who also sought safe haven from the outside world.

Culture and legacy
When it comes to physical appearance fallen angels are little different from their heavenly counterparts since the angelic race, like monsters are very diverse in appearance. It is in their way of life that they distinct themselves from the angels. for example they live a more secretive way of life and no longer bind themselves with the rules laid out by their creator.

Nothing much is known however about the fallen angels since they have avoided the eyes of the heavens and earth alike that their existence is mostly a mystery to the other races. However some of their achievements and accomplishments are well known in history such as the famous Enrikan product known as the Enrikan shirt which Luka wears. apparently it's a craft only known by the enrikans themselves and it can be assumed the fallen angels are the blacksmiths of this rare suit of armour material.

''“It’s said that the fallen angel Erigora was able to immediately heal all his wounds by meditating. It's obviously a fake story, but concentrating your mind is still important.”'' - Alice

The legend of Erigora is famous among the monsters so well known even the monster lords themselves are aware of it. Its unclear if the humans are aware of it since they have the least contact with the fallen angels.

Erigora devised the technique known as meditation to quickly heal his wounds. It would later become one of luka's most vital powers in his quest.

Fallen angel powers 'evolved' and became significantly different from the powers and martial arts practice by the angels in heaven. Although divine energy is still used as the base of power, the way the fallen angels use it is alien like for the angels of Ilias.

Some proof of this can be found in the battle against the against archangel Ranael were Luka, blinded by rage after witnessing the destruction of his home town Ilias village bombards the archangel with strange angel like powers much to her horror and surprise.


 * A secret skill to unify a holy wave and avoid attacks. It seems particularly effective against angels.


 * "Infallible and unfailing... The Dance of the Fallen!" - Luka

It's unclear if Fallen angel dance is a power unique created by Luka alone or that it is a special skill that his fellow fallen already know. however as the story continues it's clear that some of Ilias's angels barely know how to successfully counter this move hinting that it may be a technique which they are not familiar with.

The following skills could be fallen angel exclusive moves: There is still a lot unknown about the powers of the fallen angels and what they are truly capable of However one thing is for certain, even though they might be a small group they are without a doubt a force to reckon with.
 * Fallen angel dance: used by Luka he can successfully avoid most of the attacks coming from angels although he still can be hit by some attacks.
 * Meditation: A power devised by the fallen angel Erigora to quickly heal his wounds. Luka is able to instantly heal his wounds or lower is libido.
 * Daystar: A power named after his mother, daystar is a power angelic spell thats able to cause quite some damage to monsters and angels alike. although it's unclear if daystar is a power passed down from mother to son or that only a fallen angel can perform this. One thing is for certain no angel of heaven was able to reproduce it.
 * Heavenly demon revival: a power used by Luka alone, it's roots may lead to his angelic fallen heritage.
 * Ninefold rakshasa: this power replaces the vaporizing demon sword technique which essence is a monster move.
 * Flash kill: a sword slash so powerful it can cut through space and time itself.
