Cambion are the offspring of demons and mortals, and inherit very potent abilities from their parents - as well as some potent weaknesses. Demon-children are well-known in history and folklore, but face heavy stigma and fear. As such, they often die young; some, though, through luck or isolation, manage to survive into adulthood. An adult Cambion is a font of unholy power; people and animals get a "bad feeling" around them, they grow weak in consecrated spaces, and they suffer more from temptations. However, in turn they are more physically and spiritually adept, and can access powerful sorceries.
