They pop up every now and again. Nothing too important.

The king's advisor is a half-breed of some sort. Nobody's quite sure what they are. Except the king, who spent centuries arranging marriages to get this one.

There's a number of famous halfbreeds over the centuries, heroes and saints.

While they aren't halfbreeds in a traditional sense, there is now a massive tiefling population. This is more because standing too close to a powerful devil will make your future kids be born with horns and red skin, and there were a lot of powerful devils running around recently.

>They pop up every now and again. Nothing too important.
But enough about OP's thread.

There are no humans, elves, dwarves, demons, angels, fairies, giants, mindflayers, elder things.
Everyone is a halfbreed after all the races fucked each other into one race.

What is that pic from? A touhou doujin of some sort.

would Veeky Forums support such a plan?

No. Humans should never mix with the inferior race.

Anybody have sauce for this? Or at least a keyword to search for?

>Do you or your [GM] incorporate half-breeds in your current game?
If we're talking breeding between races, yes. If we're talking breeding between species, no.

>...how are they [relevant] in the game?
The mechanical effects of being mixed are negligible. Being half of anything means you have to pick at least two traits to inherent. Being a quarter means you have to pick at least one. Being an eighth or less just means you have more options to pick from. For example, Let's say you're half of race A, a quarter of race B, and an eighth of race C and D. You have to pick two of the four traits inherent to race A, one of the four inherent to race B, and your fourth trait can come from any of the twelve remaining traits available to you. For to purpose of prerequisites any flaw or trait available to a race you are at least a sixty-fourth of is available to you.

>How do NPC perceived them?
From a roleplay or social perspective: if you are half anything, you are always seen as an outsider by default. There are exceptions, but they are rare and generally restricted to a specific cross between two specific races. An example being a caste system that requires noble from caste A taking a woman from caste B. Their son would be seen as a caste A by all but the most racist in that specific scenario. This bias/outsider label tends to be powerful, but significant renown, wealth, accomplishments, and other factors can override it.

>Do they hold any political power?
Some do.

>Other
While relationships across species can and have occurred (and have sometimes been arranged) no copulation between the intelligent species has ever resulted in an actual pregnancy. I you have to know, cross-species spouses tend to have minor allergic reactions to their partners, so most abstain from sex unless its for ritual purposes (like in an arranged marriage)

The system and setting are homebrew.

Would you like to know more?

But humans are the inferior race.

The superior race is obvious user. You can't beat the cock.

Yes, they show up in every setting. Some species are literally made up of half-breeds - for example, a city-state defended by the maftet (half-human) daughters of its sphinx wizard-queen, or a nation tel-amhothlans (orc/elves) caused by one rather amorous elven outcast.

>caused by one rather amorous elven outcast
>one
Are they all inbred retards or something?

No more than Mongolia is due to the abundance of Genghis Khan's genes. Male elf + many, many, MANY female orcs over centuries = nation of elf-orc hybrids.

Half-breeds exist, but they are more monstrous creatures, like the Minotaur and such. In some locales they are regarded as demigods, in others they are seen as monsters, and others still they are kept around by their parents as accessories with no real free will.

Genghis Khan's genes defy biology

They're almost always sterile, so they're rather isolated occurrences with no unity or power as a group unto themselves. Nobility will marry their own race but mess around with other races because it's less likely to cause dynastic troubles. One of my players wanted to be a half elf, half halfling for some reason, so I just let it happen.

la creatura

Agone has some pretty interesting rules for halfbreeds (or "bastards" to use the game's terminology).
Essentially, with few restrictions, any two people can have a child, provided they truly love eachother. Given that there are 13 races, you can imagine how complicated this can get. The game dies specify, however, that bastards are all unique, and that they are exceptionally rare, given the circumstances that necessitate their creation. Humites and Hugans (Human/Sprites and Human/Spriggans respectively) are the most common, because those are the two most likely pairings, but other combinations do exist. Anything involving a Black Fey is extremely rare, because they are no longer fertile (they are all immortal, meaning any living Black Fey bastards must also be immortal).

Rules wise, you average the attribute bonuses between each parent, and choose one ability from each race. This is an advantage that is more expensive the greater the difference in size between the two parents.

I call them Hamchos.

> that spoiler

Patrician taste user. Let me guess, your setting is semi-hard sci-fi or science-fantasy?

could be used either way.

I mean, seriously; if orcs normally average... what is it, between 2 and 5 offspring per litter, and can have 2 litters in a year, how many offspring could one male elven warlord with a taste for she-orcs and a willingness to practice polygyny father in his centuries-long lifespan?
