MEION is a database created by request of the emperor by the Order of Ñolmë, who run the imperial archive, with the purpose of keeping a list of all entities encountered by the edhelrim throughout history. The database is because of that divided into two sections, one listing all encountered entities, and a nother listing theorized or mythological entities. The list also includes gods and demons.
The entities are classified using the the Mirial entity class system (MECS), which was created specifically for that purpose. MECS divides entities into 10 classes:
Cambion - mirial real space hybrids, like the miraline
Wraith - mirial entity that can not take a constant physical form
Angel - lowest rank that can take a constant physical form
Archangel - more powerful angel
Power - lowest rank that is sapient
Dominion - lowest rank that is able to physically effect/shape mirial space, aka they have dominion over it. This sometimes basically looks like magic
Throne - hard to define, more powerful than dominions but less than seraphs, visible distinction in hierarchy
Seraph - most powerful entities that are not godlike, aka they can still theoretically be killed by non divine means
Divinity - godlike, lower gods and second rank demons
Excelsis - higher gods and demon lords
Prefixes “higher” or “lower” may be added to the class to more accurately specify the power level of a entity.
