2.5.1   OVERVIEW Lest the reader believe the world of Children of Fire is populated only by good angels, fallen angels, and the multitude of mortals whose souls are in contention, we offer an assortment of other goodies for the would-be storyteller to choose from. They are introduced here to give variety and diversity to the tales one can weave. There are powers at work in the universe that follow neither God nor Sammael. These creatures know nothing of good or evil, but instead seek to fulfill their own selfish desires. Many are capable of thwarting the plans of the players, and some are even mighty enough to destroy them.
