Nephilim or nephalem (singular "nephil") are the '''offspring of angels and demons, making them practically unheard of'''.

With such a combustible heritage, it '''takes immensely powerful individuals of both species''' to first sire a child and then survive its birth. What's more, '''neither parent can overpower the other''' without risking loss of the fetus. A deadly sin would require an archangel to balance their genes; an archdemon would require a Seraph; an overlord would require a Cherub. '''Lower ranks cannot create nephilim''' without some sort of outside assistance, like temporary power-ups. Like other half-breeds, a '''nephil can't quite reach their parents' power level''' but rather the equilevant of a lesser rank. | ||
As with other half-breeds, '''nephilim may not initially realize their true nature''' before their powers erupt unintentionally. This usually happens when the nephil is conceived without consent from both parties but can also result from a combination of deadly childbirth and absent sire. In case of nephilim, their '''hidden features will be a mix of both worlds''': mismatched eyes, veins illuminated by light as their insides burn under their skin, heterogenous wings, etc. | As with other half-breeds, '''nephilim may not initially realize their true nature''' before their powers erupt unintentionally.
