7. Baby Blues:

A strange young man in dark shades shows up at the Morata family home’s doorstep with a bizarre request to help a young woman he claims has been forcefully impregnated with a demonic Rebirth Seed.

Gilliam ‘Gill’ Destrian is behind the devious scheme spurring Ezequias ‘Zeke’ Rosario and Providence Infirmary team to stop him and save the pregnant woman.

Providence Infirmary Team:

Ezequias "Zeke" Rosario

“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…”

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 1: Saving Grace, Chapter 1 - Ailment

Race: Human (Columbian)

Age: 17

Abilities: Black and White Magic. 10th born of the Tainted Generation. He has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb, known as “Vesklepios,” which allows him to channel Black Magic to summon a nearly infinite amount of blood vessels of whichever length or size is needed. The veins have many applications depending on one’s creativity.

Summary: A gifted teen who wants to be a world-renowned doctor. But is kept from achieving his full potential due to a bad reputation thanks to his criminal family, 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.

Has accepted to spy on the rest of the Tainted Generation on the behalf of former Dominion Chief to discover who were the ones behind the Seal-breaking plot.

The aftermath of Kian Elbertsson's plague has left him with a somewhat contemptuous mindset towards the Tainted Generation, evil beings, and potentially the entirety of the human race. Now with a belief that spiritual salvation is pointless and he should stick to saving only the physical part (of those who deserve it).

Ugo Morata

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 1: Saving Grace, Chapter 3 - Complications

Race: Human (Spaniard)

Age: 17

Abilities: Black and White Magic. 6th born of the Tainted Generation. Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb, known as “Rutapexy Samhita” granting him impressive cutting magic that can sever anything at an atomic level and even cut through certain seemingly unbreakable spells. Also can use stitching magic that can conjoin two items and make them inseparable, making him the strongest asset when it comes to surgical operations.

Summary: Lazy and unapologetic about his lecherous behavior. Born with a photographic memory 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.

The aftermath of Kian Elbertsson's plague has left Ugo with a strange avoidant behavior towards women where instead of going after them he keeps from interacting with them all together. Ashlin Kristov messed him up more than he realized, leaving him to believe he is highly undesirable and will never get into a relationship.

Avery “AJ” Dotson

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 1: Saving Grace, Chapter 1 - Ailment

Race: Human (American)

Age: 17

Abilities: Great understanding of nutrition and dietary topics. Possibly can apply this knowledge to the supernatural world. She has acrobatic skills and commendable physical strength for a girl her age (though she hates it).

Summary: Self-conscious about her height and lack of “feminity”. 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. Is overall a sweet, friendly 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, low-key hoping 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 Gill’s mansion.

While struggling to make a more significant contribution by experimenting with otherworldly foods, she also deals with her conflicting feelings towards Zeke.

Naomi

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 1: Saving Grave, Chapter 4 - Tainted

Race: Angel/Demon Hybrid

Age: Approximately 300 years old.

Abilities: Being both angel and demon gives her not only a bizarre spiritual physiology but access to Black and White magic. Fights using strange gray fire that has the properties and functions of both Hellfire and Holy Fire. Is able to transform into a colossal being with a gray sun head.

Summary: Somehow created near the tail end of the 13th Tainted Generation’s war on Heaven with the union of legendary seraphim known as “Cathetel” and the just as legendary demon “Terthran” which resulted in both of their eradications. Naomi was kept 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. 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. Currently works at Heath’s Sports Bar as a waitress.

Currently struggles with the feeling of being alone universe, being the only one of her kind to exist.

Now as the Infirmary's newest team member, the human/kitsune hybrid works on getting used to her new friends and working in a group. She seeks the location of the Amdukias, a lost endangered creature she wants to take back to her farm.

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 1: Saving Grace, Chapter 1 - Ailment

Race: Angel (Third Sphere)

Age: Approximately 550 years old

Abilties: White Magic. Swordsmanship Mastery (Can summon Holy Weapon, which is a long white sword: “Hundred Blessings”. Angelic Snow Magic.

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.

A continuous series of bad luck led to Nananiel being demoted to the rank of an angel of the Third Sphere. Being banished from Heaven 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.

Following his promotion to Manager of the Burger Queen branch, he works diligently while trying to come up with his next major move.

Race: Angel (Dominion & Power)

Age: Approximately 900 years old

Abilties: White Magic. Expert swordswoman and martial arts. Skilled in a variety of weaponry. Master tactician and strategist in warfare. Holy Vulcanic Magic.

Summary: Her ruthlessness and brutality have made her one of the most well-respected angels of all time in the angelic community and feared by almost every other being in the universe. Everywhere Irin goes, blood and flames are left behind. Irin has seen many iterations of the Tainted Generation, and thanks to her, angelkind has survived through them all. The Power Chief almost lost her life in a battle against the 13th Damned: Alexander Skaggsy. Imagine her rage when she awoke after being knocked out to discover that the Healer was defeated by no one other than Nananiel, who then got the job she wanted for centuries.

Irin likes doing her job and likes doing it right. She hates when people don’t do their jobs and hates it even more when they don’t do their jobs well. Is constantly switching Container 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 and focused on a secret project.

In charge of the Archangel program, which involves infusing angel essence with human volunteers.

Abilties: Black Magic Mastery (Can’t use White Magic well). Expert at Netherbeast taming and Summoning. 3rd born of the Tainted Generation. Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb known as “Torzelas.” Uses strange gluttonous magic that has yet to be classified.

Summary: Gill wants an amicable union amongst the Tainted Generation to achieve something great and have each member reach their full potential. 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.

Ashlin Kristov

First Appearance: Book 2: Pestilence, Volume 1: Eleven Tainted, Chapter 5 - Convention

Race: Human (Russian)

Age: 17

Abilties: Black and White Magic. Specializes in Sealing Magic. 5th born of the Tainted Generation. Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb, known as “Albutius,” giving her unrivaled skill in building Containers capable of containing all kinds of souls, weaponizing Containers, cosmetic spells, and resurrection (Zombies with no souls).

Summary: All Ashlin cares about is making a profit off selling high-quality Containers (which are in high demand). Prodigal, self-indulgent, excessive, wasteful. Enjoys lavishing herself with riches. Only wants the most extravagant of items. Cold and brutally honest. 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. Her cravings for things is never satiated. She will do almost anything as long as she gets something in return (and has to have value of some kind). Immoral like a mercenary.

Proclaimed lover of Gilliam "Gill" Destrian. With her unwavering allegiance to her bethrothed's plans she uses her magic to make his dreams a reality no matter the cost.

14th Tainted Generation of Healers:

Isaac Noble

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 2: Maleficent Dominion, Chapter 14 - Hypertension

Race: Human (American)

Age: 17

Abilities: Extraordinary White Magic Mastery (has the best healing abilities amongst the Healers), comparable to an angel’s (Soul’s purity is so high it can be mistaken for an angel’s). Can use Black Magic but prefers not to. 1st born of the Tainted Generation. Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb known as “Vistrea”. Can easily perform highly dangerous techniques such as “Soul Touching” and his own version of Holy Fire that can harm angelic beings.

Summary: Isaac is part of a family of passionate devotees; from the moment he was born, he had no place to trod other than the religious road his father paved for him. From a young age, Isaac preached on the road with his father and discovered his affinity with magic on his own, but he kept it a secret.

One day, an altercation with his drunk Pastor Father resulted in Isaac having his larynx scarred (by getting punched in the throat), damaging his voice permanently. His Father repented and never drank again since that day, changing entirely. This inadvertently fed Isaac’s Savior Complex; thus, he perceived this as it leads to salvaging someone whenever he gets hurt.

Isaac emanates an amiable aura, always smiling and speaking softly in his horribly hoarse voice (which he can heal with magic but chooses not to, so he won’t forget). He constantly hurts himself or puts himself in danger to “save” people.

His goal is to get Zeke to open a door for him in a Heavenly Sub-Realm that’ll allow him to substitute the angels with the other gifted individuals of his generation and create a new Heaven with a new system he designed personally.

Current whereabouts are unknown.

Viola “Violet” Balles

First Appearance: Book 1: Providence, Volume 1: Saving Grace, Chapter 12 - Conception

Race: Human (Argentinian)

Age: 17

Abilties: Black and White Magic. 2nd born of the Tainted Generation. Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb known as “Neurpatia” giving her mastery of powerful mind spells. Expert Markswoman, excellent combatant, mastery of Netherworld weaponry (most of which she tinkered and modded herself).

Summary: The first thing that 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 seems to feel the same but is frustrated he won’t aid in her quest.

Violet moonlights as the infamous “Angel-Killer”. What Violet had been doing is a mystery since she was sent to Catholic School in Argentina and her Mana Pores opened. Still, somewhere in the timeline, she grew a strong contempt towards the angels and is hellbent on killing them all.

Abilities: Black and White Magic. Specializes in Bone Magic. Expert in Traditional Medicine. Expert Summoner (and is better than Gill! According to Akachi). Outstanding knowledge of many deities across the realms. 4th born of the Tainted Generation. Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb, known as “Hippocratas” allowing him to mimic the powers of various deities.

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, thus the reason behind his arrogance.

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 for him (Even if it may not be a real long-term solution).

Uses a cocktail of pain-relievers and hallucinogens throughout the day.

Summary: Introvert. Enjoys time alone. Speaking with his microorganisms. Dejected but calm most of the time and rarely complains. Labeled as the “weirdo” of the Healers.

Has strong affinity to magic and access to the Healer’s Garb known as “Serka” granting him access to powerful defensive magic and resistance buffing. Specializes in organism resistances, nullification, and weakness to exterior stimuli.

Summary: Was left at an orphanage as a baby. Very virtuous and ethical. Takes role as a member of the Tainted Generation seriously (takes it upon himself to act as a guide for the others). Pragmatic and practical. Works diligently and efficiently. Doesn’t like doing anything off the books or too risky. Values the definite safety of the patient’s life over everything. Can be a bit of a buzzkill and act like a prefect. Loves to teach and is surprisingly patient and understanding in his lessons. Won’t give up on people.

Awakening to his powers by the age of 9. Yaalon spent the next eight years becoming the best Healer he could be, traveling back and forth between Realms and learning everything he could about the creatures and supernatural ailments of the world, barely having any time to rest.

Seeing the disparity of riches in his country, lackluster access to education, and people in poverty having access to medical needs. Yaalon wants to teach people how to use magic, healing magic to be exact, on themselves to help with their endeavors.

Opening a school where he’ll make this possible.

His ambitious and virtuous goals made him a target for murder and unfortunately, he lost his life for it.
