Hybrid

6 variants

All Hybrids are half Human and they can take on a variety of forms. They can be born or created and they live between two worlds, belonging to neither one. They usually take on the best features of Humans and the best features of who or whatever makes up the rest of them.

Many Forms

Humans with their ability to adapt and breed are very compatible with almost every other humanoid race. Even a basic human’s form is very malleable and perfect for experimentation both magical and clinical to see just how much their form can change and still survive. Something about Human nature steals the best attributes that it can, leading to a Hybrid usually being more powerful than either parent with the rare case of the Half Dragon.

Displaced from Both Sides

A Hybrid is estranged from all. They have no true race and they are vastly different from both parents from who they were before the change. They are strange and usually hated. Hybrids that survive past infancy are mighty and independent, though not by choice. They rarely are welcomed into either parent’s society and must carve out their own place.

Unfortunate Champions

Hybrids never truly belong. They make their own paths and must become great. To be mundane is to die. They must either go into exile and are doomed to die alone or they must become indispensable and indisputably great at what they do. They must lead or be trampled upon as no one will stand up for them. When they do find a place they will defend it to the end. If one can earn their trust, they have a true ally and companion. They are often found at the heart of an adventuring party as core members with deep ties to all others in the party.
