The Half-born
The Half-Born are the only members of The Bound who can trace their heritage to planes beyond the Material and Fae Wilds. At some point in each of the Half-Born’s family tree, they are descended from either an Angel, a Demon or a Dragon. Angels, Demons and Dragons are entities from the Angelic, Demonic and Draconic planes. They exist slightly outside of our capacity for comprehension. Each of the Half-Born will take after one such entity physically, and will have a metaphysical tie to their ancestor. Despite the fact that there is a great deal of intermarriage between the various Half-Born kin groups, each individual Half-Born will only have the metaphysical tie with one ancestor. It is not entirely uncommon for an Angelborn and a Demonborn to have a surprise Dragonborn child.
The degree to which the metaphysical ancestors will meddle in the affairs of their descendants varies wildly. It’s not uncommon to find that an Angel, Demon or Dragon will have ‘favorites’ among their great-great(etc.) grandchildren. The most common method of contact between the metaphysical ancestors and their descendants is through dreams.
Angel-born
Angel born tend to be rule-followers by nature and get uncomfortable breaking social taboos. They have a reputation for following through on their promises even without contracts. However, there’s nothing forcing them to follow these standards outside of their own conscience and a desire not to piss off their metaphysical ancestors.
Like all Half-Born, Angel Born will have a minimum of three non-human characteristics. Typically, they tend towards fluffy white angel wings, glowing halos, and golden eyes. However, their heritage has been known to express itself in interesting ways.


Demon-Born
Demon Born have a penchant for being class-clowns, tricksters and troublemakers. While they’re not usually explicitly evil, they do often seem to have an innate disrespect of authority and a love of small chaos. They usually know when not to push things too far, but they do love pushing. Demon Born know to be suspicious of requests that they get from their metaphysical ancestors, as Demons are known to be wily.
Demon Born always have at least three non-human characteristics. They tend towards small, dark-colored horns, red skin and eyes, bat-like wings and talons.
Dragon-born
Dragonborn tend to be calm introverts who – for the most part – just want to exist in peace. They have a ‘live and let live’ attitude. Dragon-born often become somewhat obsessive about a particular field of study or interest and will devote immense amounts of time to this hobby.
Dragon-born always have at least three non-human characteristics. They tend towards large or intricate horns, blue, green and/or purple scales on their faces, necks, arms and hands, bat-like wings, and lizard-like tails.
