Peonis and Upindeonis
​Pronunciation: Pee-owe-nee/Uu-pen-dee-owe-nee
​
Avg. Lifespan: ~10,000 years
​
Home Domain: Umu
​
Appearance: Similar to Malaikis and Upindelaikis except Peonis and Upindeonis have horns of all shapes and colors(mostly brown) and they have leather wings(but Upindeonis' are bigger in size); their eye colors are only dark colors(dark red, dark orange, dark yellow, etc.) with slitted pupils
​
Origin: Peonis and Upindeonis are either created in Umu or are souls who were accepted into the realm for committing enough negative actions in their Past Life(the more negative actions they committed in their Past Life, the higher the rank). They live amongst one another in peace except their idea of peace is much different from Maza. Killing sprees, partying, eating everything, fighting, and having sex with just about everyone is their idea of fun. They also get a kick out of ruining each other's day somehow. Like Malaikis, some Peonis and Upindeonis are sent to Flesh Realm, except their goal is to get humans into more trouble. They love to deceive humans, making them believe that they are trying to help, and they love to see the grimace on their victims' faces when they see that they are not allowed into Maza and are sent to Umu for eternal punishment. Whether a soul becomes one of them or becomes one for the Pits, it’s all beneficial to them, since they’re getting negative energy and/or increasing in numbers. They can also decide to stay in Gaia if they want to; they have a better chance at coming back home so long as they don't come back with a "beating heart"(their way of saying “having empathy") since that’s seen as a positive trait.
​
Special Powers: Peonis and Upindeonis enjoy flying through the hot air of Umu, making their leather wings extra useful. While their natural enemies are natural light magic users, these Umuites are natural dark magic users(any other magic they will have to learn). They’re also closer to the spiritual plane, so they can shape shift to an animal or plant. They have an ability called Spiny Darkness(an ability similar to the Malaiki and Upindelaiki’s Light Barrier, except when activated, the Peoni or Upindeoni is surrounded by a dark barrier made of spikes), and it’s very useful when shielding away attacks and parrying. Of course, it can be broken if the opponent is stronger or if the user is weak. Peonis and Upindeonis can also Dream Walk(an ability that involves going into people’s dreams).
