- Demonic Apprentices: Humans who serve evil in their training academy have the opportunity to destroy their humanity and become demons themselves. With each successful accomplishment in their training, they receive a chivron on their arm. The final task in accomplishing the final chivron is by killing an innocent. Only by doing this can they truly become a demon.
