Homebrew Demigod - The Great Mother Species Details

When the immortal gods get frisky, humans always seem to be willing to bear their children. Depending on which god is getting frisky, demigods are born with varying abilities and traits. Although the Greek gods are named here, the themes are quite generic and the Greek gods could be replaced with members of the Roman, Norse, or Faerun pantheons.

Demigods look like any other human, but are typically slightly more attractive and less prone to blemishes and similar markings. Most gods never meet their children and rarely claim them as their own. Upon reaching puberty and into adulthood, many start to show signs of their godly parentage with amazing feats or abilities. Demigods find their way into all walks of life and most can go their whole lives without knowing what they truly are. Although their longevity gives them away eventually.
