Right... but also archangels (as Michael which soul lived again in Pavel's body). You can say that Celestials were angels and humans children (from a certain point of view  ).

These were souls of decased angels trapped and "storage" in Angel's Hall of Memories.

From Hall of Memories. Angels captured the souls of their warriors who fell in Elder Wars.
About Angels' reproduction:
What is important to keep in mind is that Angels are not humans, they don’t reproduce like humans do. It’s much more mystical. Imagine they are created from rays of light or pure energy. So they do not need a body, an existing body actually. The Celestials are created by fusing the soul of a deceased angel, an angel that was killed during the Elder Wars, and the soul of a human. By merging these two souls they create a new being that has both memories, but the Angel is the dominant personality. Of course, not all human souls are strong enough for the merger. That is why the Angels created the Seven Swords of Virtue and gave them to imperial and ducal dynasties of the Holy Empire, to prepare them for merging with the ancient angelic souls.

the beastmen are *not* sterile, by the way, right? again not to be tasteless lol, but if the wizards can merge animals with humans and create a viable race, why wouldn't they be able to do something similar with the god races?
edit, actually they already went even beyond just combining the elemental god races lol, because they fused Sylath humans and Urgash demons to create the orcs
don't see any reason why they couldn't artificially cure the sterility of half-elves and other such combinations lol

Michael was explicitly stated to be a Celestial somewhere in H6.
Archangel is most likely a title among angels, not a "biological" type. Like "Archlich".

It doesn't mean Angels' type of reproduction doesn't involve both sexes.

true, but it doesn't seem like it. seems like they don't have genders at all but they get assigned one anyway

purely scientifically, i assure you.
besides there is a separate thread for that.

Yeah, you have a point. Such things need to be clarified by "loremasters", for now we can only build theories.

Beastmen and Orcs are still, as far as biology goes, Humans that have been "spliced" with animal or Demon DNA, if you like, by recreating the same kind of phenomenon that gave birth to hybrid creatures like Griffins.
I'm pretty sure Wizards could use a similar process to create Elfmen or Nagamen if they wanted, but these other races would probably have objections to that. Animals don't. As for Demons, nobody asked their opinion.
In any case, the end result would not be a "Half-Elf" or "Half-Naga", but a Human spliced with Elf or Naga characteristics.
kiryu133 said:

As explained in the Compendium, Angels' appearance are based on whoever is looking at them, and they will always have the features of an attractive member of the beholder's race. We always use Human-looking Angels in the games for simplicity (after all, until proved otherwise, all our players are Humans ) but it can be assumed Elves see pretty Elvish features in Angels, while Dwarves see them as quite Dwarvish, etc.
Nonetheless, there are male Angels and female Angels and this does play a role in how they reproduce -- although which role exactly I do not know This is one of the big differences with the Faceless who are, as far as I know, genderless.

I do not really know why the wizards would care or certain ones that is, but what I want to know is the difference between a human with spliced DNA and a half-creature they seem to be the same thing.

Half-Breed => hybrid born from natural reproduction between members of two compatible Elder Races. Sterile (like a mule).
Orc/Beastman => Human magically "enhanced" with animal characteristics. But they are still mostly of a singular Elder Race (Human), so they can reproduce between themselves and with regular Humans, and transmit their genes to their descendants. But the originals had to be created artificially and would not have been possible through natural reproduction.
