People generally don’t know they’re protected by an angellic (yeah, they probably think they’re really lucky). It’s rare to know.

Some high-ranked, stronger-powered angellics do make their presence known to their human (for…idk what reason). They have a little more intelligence than most angellics (most are like light amoeba) and can make some choices for themselves and others. So, some angellics choose to (probably telepathically) communicate with their human and some even tell the human their name because.

Mallord, protected by angellic, does know the name of his angellic :shushing_face: :zipper_mouth_face:

Maybe I’m misunderstanding… Aren’t these two contradicting each other? If a Phoenix popping up is the same person living a new life, how could there be another Phoenix? Or is that your point? There are no other Phoenixes, so there is no way to detect one?

A walking talking contradiction, I see :stuck_out_tongue:

Does she still need to eat, get medicine, and deal with other bodily functions and wounds and stuff? Or does she not have to deal with any of that at all?

That’s cool. So in a sense, her power is so strong, it allows her to come back from the dead eternally? But what exactly is coming back? Her personality? Her soul?

What goes on with memory?

Richard (immortal, seventh life cycle) regains memories at some point during childhood of who he was in his pasts. He doesn’t fully develop his core personality until he finishes the puberty stage, and he doesn’t fully remember all the details of his pasts until that age as well.

Does Hathor retain memory of past lives at all? Would anyone from the past recognize her in anyway?

Also, does a certain amount of time have to pass before the Phoenix is reborn?

Virven are actually vampire-elves.

They can do necromancy and alchemy. They aren’t dead, but rather living. They can consume all different colors of blood that have varying effects on their body and magical powers.

When a Virven’s emotions are heightened, their eyes glow bright.

They are also greatly attuned to eerie spaces and places like graveyards, crypts, and haunted places.

Virvens can see the ghosts/spirits of the dead that resemble a living person to them.

Oh that’s cool! I like the name :blush:

Do Virvens do anything with the ghosts/spirits at all?

Also, what do Virvens eat?

26

They mainly consume blood or bloody foods. There are those rare times when they can eat a piece of fruit or a piece of bread or even a piece of cooked meats, but because of their biology they can’t do that often.

It depends on the Virven. Most of the time when they can see the dead, it’s because they are in a location where someone or some people dead. Though they can resurrect or summon the dead to get favors from them.

The most powerful have too much.

Effectively pretas awaken out of people who can no longer contain their desires.

Are there types of blood (like, animal or other) that they prefer? And what do you mean by bloody foods? Like meat that’s just been butchered? Do they hunt for their food or buy it somewhere?

Hmm, interesting. What kind favors?

Any kind of desires?

They normally prefer blood from a person, but they’ll accept animal blood.

They don’t hunt for their food. They would typically get food from blood banks or buy it from a supermarket.

Anything. From causing harm to getting answers to lingering questions. Whatever favors the Virven want, they can ask the dead to aid them.

Does a different kind come out when the desire is different? Do you have type names?

I don’t exactly have organization of them into classes, so every one is unique.

After all that’s been said, this sounded so normal and out of the blue XD I imagine your supermarkets accommodate for all different types of creatures?

Do others in the society accept the Virvens’ way of living? Are the Virvens treated well?

Just like every human they come from is unique?

That’s nice :blush:

Yes, it does. Though supermarkets where the Virven go aren’t so big as the supermarkets that humans go to. All they need is blood or bloody meats to survive and for sustenance.

Yes and sometimes no.

For example, my main character Aeris used to live in a location where she was the only Virven. Though the people at the blood bank are friendly with her, that doesn’t stop people from staring and being afraid.

Virven are kept on a tight leash because they are the only species that consume blood from any other species to thrive and keep living.

So, they have to get their blood from blood banks or supermarkets.

Ahhh, that’s interesting.

Do Virvens have marriages and/or falling in love concepts? Do they marry or fall in love with other species ever? How many children do they have usually?

The assumption is vampires are immortal and so are elves. What about Virven? Can they die of anything? How do they view the death of one of their own?

38

Yes and yes they do fall in love with other species. Virven can have as many children as they want.

Immortality is treated weirdly in my world for all species. Depending on the species, they can age very slowly or age normally, but stop aging when they get to a certain older age. So, they are “immortal” but they can still die from being killed or diseases.

That applies to the Virven as well. They can live for centuries or a millennia or even longer, if they are able to not die by being killed, get an illness, or get into some deadly accident.

Have any ever fallen in love with a species that isn’t immortal?

I wouldn’t say weird. I’d say it’s pretty cool :grin:

So, how do the Virven age? Do they go through puberty or other hormonal changes (like voice changing, growing pains, etc.)?

And what’s school like for Virven kids?

40

Like a human? Yes, though humans have longevity more than immortality.

Virvens age rather slowly, slower than a human being. They do still go through puberty and other hormonal changes just at a slower pace. A Virven baby is born with little fangs before they grow their regular teeth.

Within every country on Alagossia, schools teach both how to get better at using magic and academics. So, Virven children learn how to wield magical spells while learning the basics of mathematics and language arts. That is true for any species. Virven children sometimes go through hardships because they have to consume blood to thrive which many species find unsettling, along with seeing the dead and other things.
