Special Children

Special Children are a group of individuals who seemingly possess the powers wielded by Demons. They are a central part of the first arc of the story, Highschool DxD: Til Midnight. Currently, the only identified Special Children are Issei Hyoudou, Lily Hofferson, and Ichika Orimura. They are being hunted down by Beelzebub and the demons for an unknown purpose.

Characteristics
Special Children possess the energy of demons running through their bodies called Miasma. It was theorized by Azrael that these children were given Miasma at a young age through unknown means by the demon Beelzebub. As a result, Special Children possess the powers of demons.
