Homebrew Cambion (Redeemed) Species Details
A Cambion is the offspring of a fiend (usually a succubus or incubus) 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.
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. Redeemed cambions are of those who have been touched by a celestial power and changed to such a degree that they lose their evil nature. Such cambions are placed in the world in servitude of the patron which blessed them, and are stalwart fighters in the battle against evil.
Redeemed cambion are characterized by silver skin patched in red with gray markings, silver or red hair, and red shining eyes.
