Homebrew Cambion (Spawn of Graz'zt) Species Details

A Cambion is the offspring of a fiend and a humanoid (usually a human). Cambions inherit aspects of both parents, but their horns, leathery wings, and sinewy tails are hallmarks of their otherworldly parentage.

The demon lord Graz'zt is fond of procreating with humanoids who have made pacts with fiends, and he has sired many cambions who help him so chaos across the multiverse. These cambions, called Spawns of Graz'zt, are characterized by charcoal-black skin, cloven hooves, six-fingered hands, and unearthly beauty.

Since cambions are inherently evil, it is rare to see one traveling with a party of adventurers. However, few have been able to escape their fiendish past in search of a better life, or have been changed by some mystical happening into a more good-natured creature. A Spawn of Graz'zt, however, maintains its chaotic nature and will often do things opposite of the party's desired direction. Because of this, Spawns of Graz'zt get along best with other chaotic creatures.
