Homebrew Duskblood Species Details

 

Duskbloods tread the razor’s edge between night and day, as easily as they straddle life and death. Legends whisper that they are the “exception” to vampiric corruption: a Duskblood cannot drink blood without the donor’s explicit consent. Yet consent can be twisted—coerced, beguiled, or stolen through enchantment. An ancient god of hunger once cursed their kind, dooming them to crave what they can never take freely. However, some see this as a blessing, protecting the ones they love.
