“I didn’t choose to be one of the Tainted Generation, but I’m doing the best I can. I want to end the conflict between the angels and Healers, although I am starting to believe that if the only way to put an end to that is by putting an end to all of us, then…”
Summary: A gifted teen who wants to be a world-renowned doctor. What keeps him from achieving his full potential is coming from a family with a sordid reputation, low self-esteem, and excessive anxiety, having him overthink and worry about everything from the fate of the world to innocuous things like if that gum he swallowed a few years is going to come back to haunt him. He hopes to end the conflict between angels and Healers.
He accepted to spy on the rest of the Tainted Generation on behalf of former Dominion Chief: Nananiel to discover who were the ones behind the breaking of the Great Seals.

HEALER’S GARB: VESKLEPIOS
As the 10th born of the Tainted Generation Zeke’s soul is bound to the spirit: Vesklepios. An entity that manifests itself in the form of a garment that grants Zeke the ability to summon a nearly infinite amount of blood vessels of whichever size is needed. The veins have many applications depending on one’s creativity. An additional ability of the Garb is improving the wearer’s ability to diagnose supernatural ailments with acute deductive reasoning.

image [https://cdn.midjourney.com/f8d779b5-2eb8-4415-8d4c-76dabd7330cd/grid_0.png]
"That’s a lie. There’s no such thing as too much perfume. Just like too much barbecue.”
Summary: Lazy and unapologetic about his lecherous behavior. Ugo possesses incredible memory-related abilities, such as photographic recall, but all that is cemented in his mind is how he will attain his first girlfriend. Ugo has been called many things (not many of them good... mostly coming from women), although “selfish” isn’t one of them.
He will step up to defend those he cares about when necessary, and despite his carefree attitude, he internalizes troubling thoughts and tries to bury them with as much as possible to keep himself sane.
He accepted to be one of Nananiel's spies as well and plans to do so while attempting to swoon over one of the female members (except for Viola) of the Tainted Generation and get his first girlfriend at last.

HEALER’S GARB: RUTAPEXY SAMHITA
The Healer’s Garb known as “Rutapexy Samhita” grants Ugo a variety of impressive cutting magic spells, including severing objects and living beings at an atomic level, and cutting through certain seemingly unbreakable spells (Removal of seals and barriers).
Also, can use stitching magic that can conjoin two items and force them to be inseparable, making him the strongest asset when it comes to surgical operations. And finally, the Garb grants Ugo a grand arsenal of mystic, surgical tools for both combat and medical operations.
Equipment:
* Surgical knife: As large as a chef’s knife. The blue-hued blade is molded after a scalpel, teasing an extremely sharp edge for the most efficient incisions.

“You’re just going to go? Haven’t you guys read Agatha Christie?”
Summary: Self-conscious about her height and lack of “feminity.” She enjoys exercise, eating right (even dedicating herself to learning various complex healthy dishes), and following sports but never applies herself to any of the school’s sports teams due to her shyness. She is overall a sweet, nice person but gets antagonistic whenever the topic of religion is brought up. After facing “unfair” outcomes when it came to her body and observing the other graver injustices of the world, she came to despise the idea of God, hoping deep down that everything about Heaven is a lie, and then one day, an angel falls out of the sky.
Reluctantly, had to take a backseat and let her friends accept Gilliam Destrian's suspicious invite and spend the rest of the Christmas break at his mansion.

“No, Nananiel! Please let me do this! You’ve always protected me. Please allow me to return the favor."
Summary: Somehow created near the tail end of the 13th Tainted Generation’s war on Heaven with the sexual union of legendary seraphim known as “Cathetel” and the just as legendary demon “Terthran,” which resulted in both of their eradications. Naomi was locked in a cage at the highest layer of Heaven, Primum Paraiso, on the mountaintop of Maliel. She was visited by many angels throughout her imprisonment, but the nicest visits were by Nananiel whom she grew a fatherly connection towards. She was let out by Nananiel to help out with an operation, and after things went awry, she was found by Zeke, Ugo, and AJ.
She’s guileless and excitable about learning new things. Contrary to what most angels believe, she isn’t violent but will resort to it if the lives of her loved ones are at stake.
Acts as the Providence Infirmary's nurse and custodian. She currently works at Heath's Sports Bar as a waitress.

“Angels exist to protect humanity. I am done with attacking blindly. There is a human soul inside that mess you made, so I will not! I will not hurt an innocent human… even if it costs me my life.”
Summary: All Nananiel wanted to do was help out humans and maybe try out some of the things they are privileged to that’s why he was happy when he was suddenly promoted to the rank of “Dominion Chief,” putting him in charge of the management of the Human Realm.
Continuous bad luck led to Nananiel being demoted to an angel of the Third Sphere. Being banished from Heaven, he must survive on Earth on his own but is adamant about not using any of his angelic abilities to help himself out.
Nananiel now gets his intel concerning angelic affairs from an unnamed contact.

"This is why you don’t have what it takes to be Chief Dominion. You have the gall to spout discourteous nonsense all day long, but when it comes to doing what’s right. For humanity and the universe. You cower like the low-life you are.”
Summary: A well-respected legend in the angelic community known for her brutal but effective methods that usually end with blood and ashes. What she likes and hates is simple. Irin likes doing her job and likes doing it right. She hates it when people don’t do their jobs and hates it even more when they don’t do it well. She is constantly switching Containers due to having trouble finding one to contain her explosive angelic soul.
Has now been given Nananiel's title in consequence of his failures, making her simultaneously the Power Chief and Dominion Chief. She stays busy focused on a secret project.

Summary: The firstborn of the Fourteenth Tainted Generation of Healers and a rather troublesome young man with a twisted savior complex coupled with devastating power.
His goal is to get Zeke to open a door for him in a Heavenly Sub-Realm that will allow him to substitute the angels with the other gifted individuals of his generation and create a new Heaven.

“I have no problems with getting rid of people who get in my way, and I don’t really consider you human.”
Summary: A childhood friend of the trio who served as their "protector" standing up to bullies for them. Unfortunately, she fell out of touch when sent to an Argentinian all-girls Catholic boarding school.
The first thing people notice when seeing her for the first time is her petrifying dark cobalt blue eyes--at times, they seem violet, hence why she was given the nickname. There is also an unmistakable hostile animus around Violet that people pick up on quickly when near her, except for Zeke, who is hopelessly infatuated with her.
She moonlights as the infamous Angel-Killer. It is a mystery what Violet had been doing since she was sent to Catholic School and her Mana Pores opened, but somewhere in the timeline, she grew a strong contempt towards the angels and is dead set on killing them all.
Violet wants Zeke to aid her in her carnage.

“I dunno, mate. But I’ll tell you this when it comes to treatment, I don’t like rushing because that’s how mistakes are made. I’m giving each of them proper care and attention.”
Summary: Gill wants an amicable union amongst the Tainted Generation to achieve something great and have each member reach their full potential. He had a traumatizing childhood; being born into a religious family and later becoming intrigued with demonology was an unfortunate mix for Gill. He managed to escape after years of abuse and now lives lavishly with an army of servants he cares deeply for and claims he doesn’t mistreat any of them. He runs a hospital in the Netherworld where he treats demons.

“Have I ever told you about the time Zeus and I did a prank on Poseidon?”
Summary: Follows a high-octane, hedonistic lifestyle. Always chasing after the next adventure, another surge of adrenaline. Drinking, drugs, parties, sex, all of it, and boasting continually (name-dropping to an annoying degree). He likes to stay in his own lane, hanging out with the gods. Spending so much time with deities made him lose touch with reality and regular human behavior, which is the reason behind his arrogance.

Summary: All Ashlin cares about is making a profit off selling high-quality Containers (which are always in high demand). Prodigal, indulgent, excessive, wasteful. She enjoys lavishing herself with riches. She only wants the most extravagant of items.
Cold and brutally honest. She is not really a fan of people (or living creatures of any kind) and only looks out for herself. Any action that grants her the most spoils, she’ll take.

Summary: Wade has a lazy approach when it comes to supernatural medicine. Taking away the pain for as long as possible by just using supplements is the way to go for him (Even if it may not be a real long-term solution).
He uses a cocktail of self-made pain-relievers and hallucinogens to get through the day due to having the inability to fall asleep.
