American Horror Story: Coven Reborn Species and Beings

Аѫёяїcап Hѳяяѳя $тѳяч Cѳѵёп Яёбѳяп Species and Beings $pёcїё$ апд Бёїпg$ Ghosts Gнѳ$т$ One of the most prominent beings to be encountered are ghosts. They can be incredibly dangerous as they can choose to hide their presence even from witches and warlocks. Even if they choose to make themselves known or are forced to be known with a spell, they can still be intangible. It is up to the spirit as to whether they can be physically touched or not. They can instantaneously move from one location to another, though they are bound to the location of their death. This rule is lifted during Halloween. Their location restriction can also be lifted by a powerful witch or warlock, or by a grouping of witches and warlocks. This is not recommended as most ghosts are dangerous and will not hesitate to continue their usually murderous ways. Shachath $наcнатн A rare being to see, Shachath, also known as The Angel of Death, is a benevolent angel that appears to administer her kiss of death to individuals who are dying or wish for death. She takes the guise of a calm, soft-spoken elderly woman who arrives seemingly out of nowhere, adorned in black funeral attire consistent in style to the 1940s era. She appears only to those who are suffering or seek her presence, and is soundless and invisible to everyone except for her chosen witnesses. She shows great sympathy for the plights of those on the brink of death, asking if they are ready to pass on to the afterlife with sadness and compassion. Should her chosen subject state that they are not ready, she disappears without a trace. Should they state that they are, she kisses them softly on the lips, during which a pair of black wings sprout from her back. She then takes them to wherever they belong after their demise. Voodooists Гѳа$ Voodooists believe in spirits called "Loas", who are worshipped through rituals and syncretized with Catholic saints. Each and every one of them has their own vèvè, magical symbols drawn to summon them during rituals and spell crafting. Witches are not able to summon a Loas on their own, but they are able to make deals with them once one is summoned. The Loas can bestow or grant beneficences and supernatural powers to Voodooists in exchange for sacrifices. As spirits, they are not susceptible to human weaknesses, thus being immune to all aging, disease, and death. They can move freely through the worlds, instantly teleporting through different places along with other magical yet to be defined abilities. Known Loas are Papa Legba, The Gatekeeper of the Spirit World (and his minion witch, Nan); Maman Brigitte, the Loa of Death and Lust; and Damballah, the Loa of Life, the Sky, and Serpents. Undead Цпдёад Corpses of the undead that have been reanimated by magic. They are merely puppets of the ritual caster. Because they are rotting corpses, they are immune to the magical power of injury transference, as they have no working nerve-endings or consciousness of their wounds. Note that this is different from those who have been restored to life by the resurgence ability, Vitalum Vitalis ability and Resurrection Spell. Those affected by resurgence are no longer dead and are alive, not undead. Afflicted Аffгїcтёд The Afflicted, also known as Vampires, are humans who have been infected with an ancient blood virus that grants eternal youth and life, among other supernatural characteristics, at the cost of requiring a diet of fresh human blood. They seem to look exactly like regular humans, oftentimes known for being "beautiful" due to one attractive afflicted spreading the virus to another attractive person, though they can also appear average. Upon being turned, a human inflicted with the virus dies before returning to life as one of the afflicted, stripped of their mortality; a person who is already dead can also be brought back to life via the virus's effects. As a result, the afflicted have very pale skin and low body temperature, at 75.5 degrees. The virus causes biological changes in the hosts, endowing them with heightened senses and greatly increased physical abilities such as a supercharged immune system, granting them immunity from illnesses, diseases, viruses and other infections. They also possess a variety of superhuman physical abilities, including enhanced strength, speed, agility, reflexes, senses, endurance, durability and accelerated healing, as well as the power hold sway over their chosen victims' minds, enthralling them in order to feed on their blood. They are able to eat normal food as well, though it does not sustain their life or provide nutrition in the same way as blood. They have increased sensitivity to light, especially sunlight, which momentarily weakens their supernatural abilities. They cannot appear in photographs, as still images of them appear blurry and unidentifiable, mistaken for technological problem by the unwary. They don't die from starvation and suffocation, but can be killed via severe physical trauma or firearms, due to hemorrhages and bleeding. Their blood virus cannot heal mental illnesses, such as dementia or Alzheimer's, and merely halts these illnesses from progressing opposed to healing the neurons. Old Gods Ѳгд Gѳд$ The Old Gods are a pantheon of dark and bloodthirsty deities which belong to ancient beliefs predating Christianity. They possess great and terrible powers, and imbue their followers with dark magic and immortality. It is rumored that the first Supreme received her gifts from the Old Gods and may still exist somewhere in the world. If this is true, it may be possible for the Old Gods to create a new level of Supreme that is not restricted by gender. Demons Дёѫѳп$ Demons differ from other species as they are connected to their own form of magic. Some demons were once humans and others were never human to begin with. Some can be evil and some can be more passive. One such human turned demon was known as Edward Mordrake. A being who collects others for his own spirit world freak show. He is not considered an evil being, but rather a merciful one. After a life of being condemned as a 'freak' Edward will often appear to these people in their death and offer them an afterlife of happiness among his troupe. Satan, however, is a demon of darkness and evil. He will tempt witches and warlocks, as well as humans, to his side. He can only thrive on Earth via possession and has made many attempts at such. He has also been known to attempt to bring about end times via creating his son on Earth. Such attempts have failed thus far or been thwarted.
