Demigods

Origin
Born from the coupling of a Numina and a Human, the Demigods are a powerful force, despite being a rarity. They seem to have first started to appear when laws among the Numinis banning them from directly interfering in mankind's affairs. As such, they needed loyal agents on Earth to do their bidding.

History
After a few centuries, the Numinis seemed to lose interest in their children on Earth. They new species, Demigods, were left to fend for themselves. While the Numinis still call on them from time to time, relations tend to be a bit strained, as after a Demigod is conceived, their non-Human parent will quite often simply disappear, leaving them to survive on their own.

Demigods have proven themselves quite capable on several situations. When there are conflicts with the Numinis, one can also find the Demigods, right on the frontlines, both fighting for, and against, the Numinis involved.

When not battling in wars of the Gods (don't let any Angels know I wrote that), Demigods take on roles quite similar to that of the Huntsmen. They are nomads, travelling the world. Their mission is to hunt down dangerous beasts, and put them down. Through this, it seems that they gain power. This does not count for all of them though, as some Demigods do prefer to simply settle down and attempt to have normal lives. This seems to be rather difficult, as they are prone to being thrown into the thick of things.

Appearance
For the most part, Demigods appear the same as other Humans. There are documented cases of them reaching exceptional heights, some towering individuals reaching 8 feet tall. Also, in some cases, they are known to have strangely colored hair, or odd looking eyes, betraying a bit of their inhuman origin.

Abilities
Demigods, despite being virtually abandoned by their non-Human parents, are not left defenseless. They are known to possess inhuman strength. In addition, they have the ability to sense power in others from a young age, assisting in their ability to determine which fights are worth participating in. They are known to possess some power from their Numina parent, though obviously on a rather diminished scale.

Demigods are known to wield weapons that would be a challenge, if not impossible, for a normal Human. This is due to both their increased strength, as well as them having incredible durability. This does not, of course, mean that they are invulnerable. They are just more capable at taking a beating than a Human would be.

Lastly, Demigods seem resistant to curses. Not offensive spells and other magic, just curses. If the magic would be lingering, and harmful, their body seems to just shrug it off. This can be a very handy trick.

Weaknesses
Demigods, while possessing great potential, do have some faults. First, is the fact that they seem cursed with bad luck. That or trouble is just drawn to them. The more powerful a Demigod, the more obvious this feature is. Marauding monsters, deranged madmen, car crashing, and in extreme cases, even small meteors, somehow find their way onto the laps of powerful Demigods. In addition to this, their power is easily detected by those with the ability to detect power within others.

Diet
The one stroke of luck for Demigods, is the fact that they can eat just about anything they like. Meat, vegetables, fruits, all of it is on the menu. If they so choose, flesh, as well as blood, is even a viable option.

Lifespan and Lifestyle
Demigods tend to live very long lives, or rather short lives. It is estimated that their lifespans range from about 40 years of age, to about 120. This is mostly due to so many dying at a young age due to several different factors, including accidents, random monster attacks, and ice cream trucks falling from the sky (don't even ask).

Demigods, for the most part, are nomads, travelling the world and hunting down monsters that many people believe to not exist. Through these actions, they gain power.

Reproduction
Demigods have an interesting selection of viable partners in terms of relationships. They can successfully mate with just about any species, which is a rather interesting trait. Additionally, the offspring has a 50/50 chance of being a Demigod (inheriting their powers from their Demigod parent), or a species reliant on the other parent. It will be a Cambion if the other parent was a Demon, a Dhampir if the other parent was a Vampire, or a Nephilim if the other parent was an Angel. Besides that, it will be the same species as the other parent. Demigods have a 30% fertility rate.

Death
Upon death, it is said that the soul of a Demigod goes to the afterlife of the Pantheon that their Numinis parent belonged to (traced back to the first Numina parent in a bloodline if the Demigod is multiple generations in).

Ranks
Rank E - Peasant - Weakest among the Demigods, these individuals possess little in the way of powers, and were not even graced with exceptional strength. They can still sense power within others, however, and seem to not have inherited the terrible luck of their species either. Tend to live quiet lives.

Rank C - Mercenary - Possessing basic combat abilities, these individuals are younger, and have yet to truly prove their valor and strength. They are stronger than the average Human, and can sense power in others. They may display a small amount of power inherited from their Numina parent, but this is not always the case.

Rank B - Vanguard - Powerful individuals who have proven themselves, these individuals are both strong, and possess a moderate amount of power inherited from their Numina parent. They are well regarded among Huntsmen and Demigods alike.

Rank A - Hero - Particularly powerful, these individuals have achieved great things. Their strength is unmatched among mankind, and the powers that they possess are extraordinary. They have proven themselves in battle time and time again.

Rank S - Godkin - Powerful beyond what should be possible, these individuals are said to have ascended to become Numina themselves (despite being akin to the species in power level alone). They are regaled among Huntsmen and Demigods alike. No, they do not embody an aspect of existence/life, as Numinis do.
