Born of God and Mortal, one of your parents is an almighty deity who got bored and came down from the heavens for some fun. They either had a random romp in the sack with your mortal parent or fell in love with them and stayed by their side for years before you were born. However you came to be, you are here now and it sucks to be you. You are related to many heroes of legend, and like them, you are hardwired to fight. You find it hard to stay still as your survival instincts are always on overdrive. Good thing too, as monsters are constantly looking for you, hoping to kill and eat you. Unfortunately, they almost always know where you are as you give off a smell that allows them to track you.
You have also, in all likelihood, never met your godly parent as they have more important duties to attend too, like keeping the universe in order. However, they may show you favor every once in a while and may call on you to complete a quest, which will bring you great honor and favor in their eyes, maybe a little more. Still, for most of your life, you lived as an outcast and with only one parent. never able to fit in and constantly having to fight for survival. You never asked to be a Half-Blood, but you better make the best of it.
- Skill Proficiencies: Due to your innate battle skills, you gain proficiency in survival.
- Languages: You can read and understand spoken Celestial and common, even if you have never studied it. It is hard to read other written languages though (Dyslexia).
