The Divine Codex

This codex is an accumulation of the gathered

knowledge on the Divine beings that are known
as the Yotogi. The watchers as they are known
seem to fall into two separate groups.
The ones that watch and record with no
interference.
And the ones who have taken the mantle of
guardian, the ones who seek to change the
world,
Over a thousand years ago, there was the Quincy Blood war.
The world of the living nearly collapsed as the balance was
put in jeopardy by the Quincy. Though they were defeated,
the Quincy still did massive damage to the balance and the
universe responded. The first Yotogi was created by the Spirit
King's will, and set the task of restoring order.
Originally diligent in their duties, the Yotogi worked
feverishly to restore the balance, and once it was restored,
went on to attempt to aid mankind. Unfortunately, this lead
to disaster and the Yotogi vowed never to truly interfere
again, leaving the world to its own devices, to only record.
They gathered to them another race of helpers, the Djinn,
and began recording the universe's passing.
Few know the sin that the Yotogi committed all that time
ago. The reason for the Yotogi hiding away from the world
that that their divine nature allowed for their hubris to
grow with their pride to the point of being worshiped as god
by humanity. It wasn’t long before they realized the fault in
their ways and the majority retreated to a life of recording
instead of acting.
There are however a few who instead play an active role as
guardians and protectors of humanity and the mortal realm.
These Yotogi would be known as Angels for the power they
would develop granted them such an appearance.
Many of the Angels have taken up alongside the Shinkoukenjin
in their fight against the Oni Courts. Many seek ways to free
the souls that have become corrupted by Nobunaga and his
vile powers. There are some who take the fight to the
frontlines seeking to purge the Oni from the mortal world,
thus leading to a great many battles between the Angels and
the Oni within the very streets of the Mortal world.

The Angels are led by a group of five known as the Angiris

Council, the most powerful of the Angels who have reached
the rank of Archangel. Few seraphim make it to this level of
power.
