General Overview

After mankind became plentiful upon the earth the archangel Raziel fell in love with a daughter of man, so much so he convinced his legion to abandon their posts and take the daughters of men as their wives. This gave birth to the first of the Nephilim which were considered giants at the time. The children as adults would be anywhere from six to seven feet in height as possessed angelic abilities.

Mankind went to war with the first race of Nephilim and their Angelic parents. Seen as abominations the angels come down and aided men in their war effort.

The Nephilim were nearly all wiped out as were the angels that sired them. Raziel was captured, brought back to the heavenly realms to stand trial.

Raziel was imprisoned in a stone that was placed directly next to what the humans called the source.

It is a belief that psychics and oracle have a Nephilim somewhere family’s bloodline.

The view on Nephilim have changed in the eons since their first inception and are still made today only rarely or if there is a necessity. Even the other archangels have had children with mortals but those are the rarest of the new age Nephilim.

All Nephilim has supernatural strength, stamina, agility, and heightened senses. Their other comic powers come from their Angel parentage and can manifest in late teens to early adulthood, possibly not manifest at all.

Whatever cosmic powers they inherit will be at a limited or diminished capacity than their heavenly parent.

Most Nephilim can sense each other and who their heavenly parent is and which class they came from.

The Nephilim revere the archangel Raziel and offer him prayers and offerings. They have built a gathering hall/church so they can have a sense of community and a safe place for Nephilim who have come from far away, runways, or were abandoned for what they were.

When a Nephilim comes into their own and manifests their first cosmic abilities they are sought out by an older Nephilim of the same familial class and taken under their mentorship.

Beliefs

The Nephilim hold closely to the hidden gospel of Mathias which speaks to the belief that someday an Incubus will rise up as an antichrist like figure and a Nephilim will rise up as his power counterpart to oppose him. They will plunge the world into war and in the end, the Nephilim will stand victorious banishing the incubus back into darkness and closing the pit of Hell forever. They also believe that someday the archangels will come down to earth and free their brother Raziel from his prison and forgive him so he may retake his place amongst the cosmic beings. He will also stand as judge of every man, woman, creature, demon, and angel at the end times. Nephilim have taken it upon themselves to help keep a balance and will hunt down other paranormal creatures and beings who have crossed the line, sometimes they hunt humans down too. Upon their death, the angelic grace a Nephilim carries with them will make a new angel.

Heads

Each Nephilim belongs to a class that depends on their parentage they have a Nephilim elected to the head of their classes that they report or answer too. Each head has the former head of the class act as an advisor. There is a head leader usually the son of one of the archangels whom the other heads answer to. The heads also run bi-monthly council meetings open to all Nephilim to sit in.

Abilities

The Nephilim shares the same cosmic power base as their parents but due to their human nature usually, only three or four of these gifts manifest themselves and at limited or diminished capacity.
