Homebrew Abyssal Hybrid Species Details
He rose from the dungeon floor after colliding with a stone wall, his flesh now covered in shadow and embers as his blade wreathed itself in flames with him. The flaming blade was driven upwards into the Medusa that threw him and he waited, grabbing her by the neck as he just watched. He waited until the flames rose to her throat, waited until her screams were scorched out into silence. Then, he crushed the burnt neck of the creature and watched as the once snake ridden head collided with the floor.
It was then I knew, this was no mere man traveling with us. This was something twisted, demonic.
Abyssal hybrids are often times created through the union of a demon and mortal, typically a succubus or incubus. Though occasionally these hybrids can occur after the union of an Abyss Hunter and a mortal as well.
