Hybrids

Hybrids are offspring born from parents of different species. Three sentient hybrid species are native to Euclid: Nephilim (angel and human), Tieflings (human and demon) and Cambion (angel and demon).

Biology and Appearance
Nephilim can be created by combining angelic energies with the human soul or born as the children of a human and an angel. They initially appear to be perfectly normal humans.

Tieflings are a race of beings who are half-human and half-demon. They can be created by combining demonic energies with the human soul (Artificial Tieflings) or born naturally. They initially appear to be perfectly normal humans, although they can appear more demon-like.

Cambion are the race of beings who are half-demon and half-angel. They are very rare since demons and angels are typically known to be enemies. They physically appear identical to either an angel or demon, or perhaps a stranger concoction of both.

Background
Vritra forbade the creation of Cambions during his reign over Eden. Any angel suspected of disobeying this ruling could be severely punished, potentially executed if they were already of low standing. Their demon partner and offspring would always be killed.

The few Cambion born in territory controlled by Xeren were allowed to live freely or serve in the demon army. They were still subject to some discrimination on the basis of their heritage. Cambion could serve in the army only in divisions exclusive to members of their race.

Following the spillover of the war into Euclid, human hybrids were born. Tieflings would compose a significant minority population in Nuyö. One notable Nuyovian Tiefling was Oliver Baldwin, who would go on to reclaim Rodina from the Nuyö-Dyavol Coalition.

Nephilim were comparatively rare.

Arriticial Tieflings were created by Alchemilia Corporation through genetic engineering.

Society and Culture
Some Nephilim will side with the angels, although most will side with the humans.

Most Tieflings are allied with the organization to which their parent belongs. A racial slur for the species is "Imp," as they are widely hated by human civilization.

Cambion have far more control, not constricted to the angel or demon militaries, though they are far more accepted by the demons than the perfectionist culture of the angels. Many Cambion hate both angels and demons.
