The Annunaki, also known by their modern sobriquet Malefactors, are the former shapers and users of Earth condemned to the Abyss by God in Demon: The Fallen. The Malefactors wanted to help humanity, but being used to machine and stone, did not understand how they worked. Feeling unloved, many joined the Rebellion, where they provided the weapons used by the fallen. Many Malefactors care little for humans nowadays, instead looking to create disorder among those that they felt rejected them.
