Rebellion

From the White Wolf Wiki, the most complete White Wolf reference

The Rebellion refers to the collection of events that occured in Demon: The Fallen when one-third of the Elohim decided to defy God and Heaven by revealing themselves to Adam and Eve. The Rebellion began with The Fall and went through four periods:

• Age of Wrath - The period following the punishment of God, where humans and Fallen worked together on Earth.
• Age of Wonder - The Fallen took over Earth from humanity, either helping or terrorizing them.
• Time of Atrocities - Some of the Fallen turn on humanity. The War against Heaven intensifies.
• Babel - Lucifer attempts to connect humanity and Heaven, and fails.

After the Time of Babel failed, Michael and the Heavenly Host defeat the Fallen; the demons are cast into the Abyss, effectively ending the Rebellion.
