Humans (Chinese: 人类 rénlèi) are a species in Realms. They comprise the vast majority of the cast of characters and are also the second natural sentient beings to populate the Earth after ghosts, with the artificially made dragons being created before the first humans set foot on Earth.

History

Origins

After the Second War of Heaven and Earth, and the creation of the Realm of Ghosts, God sought to create a second sentient species to fill the emptiness left by the ghosts. To this end, He sent Izrail to Earth to gather soil samples from every corner of the planet. Following the angel's return to Heaven, God combined the samples and molded it into the form best suited for life on earth, and put in it a large amount of divine spark, giving it life and sentience. God named this new creation Adam.

Adam was then revealed to the other denizens of Heaven, with God announcing him as the next guardian of earth. This was received with doubt from the angels, who believed that Adam is no different than the ghosts who preceeded him, and that he would cause just as much damage as the ghosts did. God then took Adam and gave him Knowledge of All Things. This allowed him to pass a test God gave to both him and the angels, with none of the latter even coming close to his results. Following this revelation, all the creatures of heaven, including angels, animals, and even ghosts prostrated to Adam. All except for the only ghost to achieve a high rank in God's army, Azazel. In his eyes, Adam was an upstart newcomer who is beneath him as Azazel was a ghost, and therefore made before Adam from fire, while Adam was made later from soil.

As punishment for his arrogance, Azazel was exiled from Heaven and cursed with immortality. He took on a more feral, more horrifying form and became the first demon. He also took on a new name - The Devil. Just as he was about to leave Heaven, he swore to God that he would lead Adam's descendants down a path of evil so that he can torture them for eternity in Hell after they died.

After months of living in Heaven as the only human, Adam complained that he was feeling lonely as he was the only one of his kinds. In response, God created Eve from one of his ribs.

Fall from Heaven

After being exiled, The Devil began to telepathically tempt both Adam and Eve to eat from the fruit of The Tree of Life, telling them that doing so would grant them immortality at the level of angels, knowing they were unaware of their own immortality in Heaven. One day, the couple fell to his temptation and ate from the tree, being exiled from Heaven themselves. This exile was not a punishment for their transgression. Rather, it was in God's plan all along as He intended humanity to become the guardians of Earth, not Heaven.

Life on Earth

Adam and Eve were sent to different parts of Earth; Adam somewhere in the Indian subcontinent, while Eve somewhere in Africa.
