Crossbreed (5e Race)

Crossbreed

Physical Description

Most crossbreeds have small horns that grow from their forehead, the number and exact size of the horns depend on the draconic ancestor, along with a small tail covered in fur, also dependent on the crossbreed's draconic parent. All crossbreeds have slit eyes, and their color depends on their celestial, human, or elven parent. Scales dot the crossbreeds skin, males more so than females.

History

A crossbreed is the child of a dragon and a celestial being. Most crossbreeds are shunned, if not feared for their race as it was seen as an abomination. Some celestials and even a few dragons have hidden away or killed them fearing that they would become too strong and take their rightful place among them. Those who are hidden away are normally in another dimension guarding powerful artifacts for all time.

Society

Most Crossbreeds are looked down upon as being unnatural abominations, yet they have the potential to become ferocious mercenaries, loyal guards, wise clerics, and, as with the case of the legendary Crossbreed Priscilla, guardians of entire dimensions. As such, they are both feared and respected.

Crossbreed Names

Crossbreeds typically take human names but sometimes result in speaking or writing their names in Draconic. Rather it is to fit in with the rest of the world or is only normal to speak Draconic over years of isolation.

Male: Lucius, Baldric, Zerus, Bor, Khemed

Female: Priscilla, Ashley, Zora, Tana, Zasheida
