=== Fiendblood Culture ===
'''Sanguineth-Blooded'''
* Those of the Sanguineth blood must forever fight against the baser urges of excess and indulgence that so define their heritage. The Sanguineth typically appear the most humanoid of their lineage, as the fiendish influence usually comes through in subtle ways. Slit, blood-red eyes are often the first signs followed by extra long, double-jointed fingers. Those that embrace their blood might have limbs that look quite long and sinewy and teeth that appear a little too pointed.
 
'''Melaneth-Blooded'''
 
* The Melaneth reside in the Black City of Durlossoth, where twisting streets of endless dilapidation drive unfortunate travelers mad with hopelessness. Melaneth fiendbloods usually have wispy hair of black or white and shriveled features. A dour nature comes with the blood, and many Melaneth fiendbloods find an unconscious stirring in their souls when the opportunity for a deal or an imparting of dark wisdom arises.
 
'''Cholereth-Blooded'''
 
* The Cholereth are fiends of a singular desire to dominate or slaughter any who stand in their way, and threads of this notion often weave their way into the lives of their fiendbloods. These individuals are physically imposing and they typically force their way into positions of leadership. Horns and spines are common along with curled claws and thin, lashing tails.
 
'''Phlegmereth-Blooded'''
 
* It is said that the Phlegmereth are the source of all known illness and disease, and those that share their blood might enforce the idea with sickly, pale skin, skull-like features, and any number of swollen knots or nodules. It is surprising, then, that most Phlegmereth fiendbloods show an unusual strength of both body and will that bely this appearance. The fervent, often zealous nature of their heritage is difficult for such a fiendblood to escape, and they must always be tempered against losing themselves in a cause or belief.

Latest revision as of 11:47, 30 October 2025

The fiends of Inferno are a brutal and cunning lot whose thoughts and behaviors are far beyond the comprehension of mortal beings. Those that act beyond instinct feel nothing of love, appreciation, or admiration and their dealings are always of a transactional nature. Those foolish enough to bargain usually find, to their horror, that they do not receive quite what they expect. Humans are particularly susceptible to these fiendish influences.

Fiendbloods result in the mingling of fiend and humanoid blood, which produces a twisted hybrid offspring. Though the child itself may appear perfectly normal and healthy for the first few years of life, their nature quickly becomes apparent as they grow and signs of their parentage begin to show. Horns begin to poke from their heads, their skin takes on strange green, red, or gray tones, their eyes darken to black orbs, and strange tragedy follows wherever they go. Those that do manage to avoid suspicion learn the truth when they reach maturity and the first blood transformation takes place.

Fiendblood Culture

Sanguineth-Blooded

  • Those of the Sanguineth blood must forever fight against the baser urges of excess and indulgence that so define their heritage. The Sanguineth typically appear the most humanoid of their lineage, as the fiendish influence usually comes through in subtle ways. Slit, blood-red eyes are often the first signs followed by extra long, double-jointed fingers. Those that embrace their blood might have limbs that look quite long and sinewy and teeth that appear a little too pointed.

Melaneth-Blooded

  • The Melaneth reside in the Black City of Durlossoth, where twisting streets of endless dilapidation drive unfortunate travelers mad with hopelessness. Melaneth fiendbloods usually have wispy hair of black or white and shriveled features. A dour nature comes with the blood, and many Melaneth fiendbloods find an unconscious stirring in their souls when the opportunity for a deal or an imparting of dark wisdom arises.

Cholereth-Blooded

  • The Cholereth are fiends of a singular desire to dominate or slaughter any who stand in their way, and threads of this notion often weave their way into the lives of their fiendbloods. These individuals are physically imposing and they typically force their way into positions of leadership. Horns and spines are common along with curled claws and thin, lashing tails.

Phlegmereth-Blooded

  • It is said that the Phlegmereth are the source of all known illness and disease, and those that share their blood might enforce the idea with sickly, pale skin, skull-like features, and any number of swollen knots or nodules. It is surprising, then, that most Phlegmereth fiendbloods show an unusual strength of both body and will that bely this appearance. The fervent, often zealous nature of their heritage is difficult for such a fiendblood to escape, and they must always be tempered against losing themselves in a cause or belief.

Fiendblood Traits

Height: 4’8” - 6’5”

Weight: 80 - 250 lbs

Size: Small or Medium

Base Speed: 20 ft

Appearance: Fiendbloods generally resemble a typical member of the species they were born into until they reach their sixteenth birthday when they undergo their first transformation and all manner of changes occur. They might sprout twisted goat horns or spines, wicked claws and fangs, spiked tails or even bat-like wings. Their skin becomes a mottled red, gray, or green and their eyes fade to solid black or dull red.

Lifespan: Fiendbloods reach maturity around age 16 and naturally live about 70-90 years.
