State of Dissent Encyclopedia- Major Factions
Next one on the list. If anyone has another faction they want added feel free to let me know and I'll have it added. This should be a good compendium of all the major groups regarding what people may run into for any of the stories in this thing. Though one restriction should be is that this is for groups that actively engage in the other realms. For ones that are mostly content to stay where they are it's not worth mentioning here.
One side note about the Angels and Demons that is definitely worth mentioning, just didn't fit when describing the groups in particular. Angels and Demons are not immune to the effects of realm transit. Meaning though an Angel or a Demon would look like what you'd expect on their realm, on any other realm they'd look like anyone else on that realm. Demons like the fact they can blend in, makes it easier for them to do what they want to do. Angels, however, abhor being seen as an equal to anyone else. They consider themselves to be superior in every way to every other realm out there, including the Church. Which, when you consider the fact (will get to in a later segment) that the Church basically threw its entire military force at the Angel-Demon war, bitch slapped both sides and went "No! Your war is over!" it says a lot about the mindset of an Angel. Now they don't keep their wings normally when transitioning. So instead they have crafted their armor in such a way that it has a pair of fake wings on it. So one can tell that someone is an Angel by simply looking for the individual wearing gold or white armor with fake wings molded into the back of the breastplate.
As for finding Demons, there is a spell that people can learn that will create a radiance around the individual. This radiance is specific to the realm they come from. Unless someone has memorized the exact color of each realm one cannot tell what realm an outsider is from, but they can tell that someone is not from that realm. But Angels have perfected this spell so that it will only create the radiance from someone from the Demon Realm and every Angel must know this spell before being allowed to leave their realm.
