Annunaki (World of Darkness)
|
The Anunnaki are a fictional house of fallen angels in White Wolf Game Studio's World of Darkness role-playing game Demon: The Fallen. They were angels of the forge, of tools, and of the earth, and were to guide humans in mastering these skills. But the humans were unable to follow the angels' instructions, and from this frustration they came to despise their mentors, much to the angels' confusion. When the War in Heaven broke out, they became rebels mainly because of their hatred for the humans they once loved: hatred against God for not allowing them to directly help the humans; and because they felt the others loved them. Once sentenced to hell, they were without pure earth and fire and began to feel empty. Now free, they've found the humans have learned to use tools and manipulate the earth, but have (as the Anunnaki see it) destroyed the planet in the process. These demons now see their goal as the destruction of the human race, so that the planet might be healed.
