Haloin
Haloin also called "Celestial-Born" are the result of the breeding between humans & celestials. The Haloin are hailed as holy and special individuals who are blessed by the heavens before birth.

History
The Haloin are the offspring of humans and celestials made with a plan of the celestials from the heavens to aid the mortal realm through gifting their essence to mortals. This was done through a type of celestial known as an Erogel that would seek out mortals and breed with them thus making the era 1 haloin most active during the dark ages of zodia. Once born the Haloin were under extensive care by other celestials called Devas who watched over the Haloin guiding them to be holy envoys of justice. These haloin were very powerful being fabled as invincible slayers of evil; they were all beloved by the populace as they defended their settlements and killed monsters.
Tragedy struck when the soulless cult attacked killing 90% of the haloin population while the others fell becoming enemies of Zodia siding with the grimm cult. The Erogel abandoned their purpose becoming succubi & incubi becoming bound to hell & seeing the corrupt nature of mortals stopping the reproduction of anymore era 1 haloin. It wasn't until centuries later that other celestials decided to make haloin but couldn't make them in the same power as era 1 these haloin dubbed era 2 where weaker than era 1 and much rarer as very few celestials see the worth in making corrupted mortals with their own radiance. The Era 2 Haloin rarely took up the sword in defense of others as they were still being hunted by malevolent groups.
