Archons

The Archons (重いたわごと) are a host of lesser spirits, some of which may be found within the Lesser Key of Solomon, that are dedicated to serving the Demiurge and preventing both the Enlightenment and Ascension of mortals. These entities are capable of possessing individuals by sinking deep within their soul and corrupting their Soular Energy. There are many classifications of Archons, and will be listed below.

Demons
Demons are considered the weakest grunts and are equivalent to the ground troops of evil. They are often mistaken for Poltergeist and have limited influence over the Earf. Overall they are AIDS-Tier threats that may interact with the physical realm to an extent but not conjure anything nor directly control mortals, but they may possess the body of a pig. And also other animals, especially farm animals, according to the Big Cattle conspiracy theory.

Archdemons
Archdemons are a force to be reckoned with and are responsible for small-building level feats of conjuration. They have bled their way onto the material plane enough to possess mortals of weak will. They are often mistaken for Succubi and influence the dreams of all but the most steadfast mortals, with the afflicted claiming to feel a large waist on their chest and sometimes their cock and balls. A Big AIDS-Tier threat. At this point a seasoned exorcist is required to bring justice to the damned.

Fallen Angels
Fallen Angels are Archons that once were part of a greater picture but have since been swayed to the Demiurge's side for one reason or another. Contrary to popular belief they did inspire acts of violence in mankind, in fact it was the other way around. The scope of what was possible was expanded by Cain's murder of his brother and it was at that point that violence unto those with souls was conceived.

Fallen Angels have the power to turn cities into wastelands overnight but rarely do as it would draw the attention of stronger entities that would not agree with such actions. The strongest among them, unofficially referred to as Fallen Archangels, may even seize a medium-sized country. For this purpose they are classified as Super AIDS-Tier threats. It is at this level that entire organizations must dedicate themselves to thwarting centuries-long schemes.

Lesser Gods
This classification refers to a variety of beings, mostly old pagan gods that have fallen out of mortal favor and Fallen Angels that have half-achieved, half-failed Apotheosis. They are able to influence the whole Earf at a whim, but much like the Fallen Angels tend not to because of possible repurcussions. It is at this point these creatures begin to hold spheres of reality that their domain majorly influences in more subtle ways. For these reasons a Lesser God receives the threat level of Omega AIDS-Tier and require a concentrated worldwide effort of many competent organizations to match their worldwide influence.

Notable Lesser Gods include:


 * Moloch: god of tribute and screaming sacrifice

Kings of Ardor
The Kings of Ardor are Space AIDS-Tier threats and, along with occasional mentions of Lesser Gods, are what most people think of when it comes to Archons. Although the Demiurge is within this classification as its supreme ruler, many of the Kings of Ardor are not necessarily following the orders of or even affiliated with it. It is difficult to fathom the extent of power a single King of Ardor holds. Most agree one could erase the majority of the realms with a single gesture. Some claim that some of them are doing that, while more benevolent godlike beings are simply hitting the undo button every single time it occurs.

The Kings of Ardor are composed of beings that have achieved Apotheosis successfully. Beyond their sheer power and god status the only thing they hold in common is that they are not in allegiance with the theorized true godhead that the Demiurge attempts to obscure through his layered unreality.

Notable Kings of Ardor include:


 * The Demiurge: false godhead, celestial architect and warden
