A being that is half-angel and half-human; a hybrid creature combining divine and mortal natures.
From demi- (half) + angel. Demiangel appears in various mythological and religious traditions describing offspring of divine and human parentage, creating a moral middle ground.
The demiangel concept reveals how religions struggle with the question: what if you're born partly divine? Medieval theologians actually debated whether demigods and demiangels could sin, creating fascinating contradictions about free will and nature.
