Here are a few entities found on other planes of the world apart from Gods and Demons. This post also goes into A couple minor gods or progenitors of a couple races/species. Please Enjoy.
Angels- A lesser race of entities that reside in the planes of Elasvaine and Solmain. These beings possess a humanoid physique with large avian wings on their backs. In Elasvaine, they are emissaries and loyal servants of the gods, obeying the decrees of the gods and following them. Those who reside in Solmain act as guides and guardians of the plane and the souls within. Angels do possess abilities like magic that harness their own form of mana some of which take on different forms depending on which god they are a servant of. Apart from abilities blessed to them by their gods, Angels have a basic ability to manipulate their energy in different ways. Those of the most powerful angels are referred to as Archangels and Seraphim, possessing a much greater power and ability and identified by one or two extra pairs of wings. Angels are often used as messengers of the gods to the mortal realm, sometimes bringing news of terrible happenings or prophecies of wondrous events.
Cherubs- These angels are devoted servants of Kounia and do her bidding spreading love through out the world. They are said to spark flames of passion and affection in the hearts of people, be the relationships short lived or life long. They not only follow the orders of Kounia but also the orders of Apheros, Kounia’s son and the first cherub. Each cherub possesses a magical set of bow and arrows that when striking a person incite feelings of affection, love, and lust, some these being stronger than others. While most will loyally go about their tasks, some cherubs have been known to be mischievous and sometimes even cruel in their duty. These kinds of cherubs have been said to be the root of odd couplings and tragic romances through out Asnorit’s history and legends.
Nephilim- A celestial warrior race found in Sarangrad. They are partial cousins of Angels but are large people with amazing strength, powers, and abilities. On Sarangrad, they serve as warriors for souls seeking an impressive challenge but also serve as attendants to the souls there when they need a meal or company. When angels cannot be used as warriors of the Gods, the Nephilim are used instead. If they are sent on a mission, they are an unstoppable force that nearly can’t be killed. Nephilim generally possess a human physical appearance with glowing eyes and various skin tones that are affected by the powers they possess.
Titans- A primordial, enormous humanoid race, the Titans were in fact the first race of the earthly plane. The direct children of Terophite and close to godhood, the titans were monolithic beings standing at about 50 -100 feet tall and possessing a strong connection to the elements. However, when other races began to appear like humans, elves, dwarves, etc., the Titans became jealous of their small neighbors whom the world seemed better suited for. They began acting violently towards the smaller races which began a war between them. Led by Dravius, the smaller races did their best against the titans having some victories and slaying titans but they were outmatched. Finally, the war was halted by the titan Gargantin and the gods intervened as well. The titans not slain were either placed in servitude of Hathro or banished to another realm.
Thuravel- The Mother of All Dragons and Patron Goddess of the Great Dragons. She was said to been born in early days of the world between it’s forging and the rise of the mortal races. Thuravel is speculated to have been one of the great Thunder Lizards who roamed the land, reaching a higher level of intelligence than most Behemoths. She mated with many of the behemoths and gave birth to the Dragon Species. Her power and might led her to become a bestial goddess who has become worshipped by the Great Dragons and few other races of the world.
Lykthone- The First Werewolf. Originally a mortal man who fell in love with the Goddess Meloa. They shared a wonderful relationship but Lykthone was displeased that they couldn’t be together as much as he wish since Meloa could only be with him at night and when the Moon’s light shined down on a reflection. In a strange and desperate labor of love or perhaps obsession, he fashioned a magic mirror that trapped Meloa on the earthly realm, causing the world to freeze in a state of everlasting night. While Meloa pleaded for Lykthone to break the spell, he was too blinded by his obsession with her. Luckily, Meloa’s siblings and Judasta rescued Meloa and destroyed the mirror. As Punishment, Judasta cursed Lykthone to transform into his truest self, a savage, hungry, and selfish wolf when the moon rose. Lykthone thus became the first werewolf and went on to spread his curse to others. Werewolves occasionally worship Lykthone, especially those of the Rabiaft Fang.
Noctira- The First Vampire. Originally, a woman known for her extraordinary beauty and fickle tastes in men. It was said that she and her hair shined in the light of the sun. Her beauty even captured the attention of the sun god Scoran. The two entered into a romantic relationship for a period. Scoran loved her and did many things for her even granting her immortality. Noctira seemed to feel the same that was until Scoran found her in bed with another. Enraged by her unfaithful behavior, Scoran cursed her so that she would never be able to bask in the light of the sun and a hunger for the blood of those who could. So, Noctira became the first vampire and spread her curse to others.
