Cambions

Cambion
Cambions are creatures born between the union of mankind and demon. Typically a cambion is born between an incubus and human, this is mainly due to the active nature of the incubi. However, other demons have sired multiple children through the ages. Cambions are much more common than their nephilim counterparts and their ranking of power does seem to act in a similar manner. The stronger the demon, the stronger the cambion. Some cambions are able to fully summon the fires of hell and even take semi-demonic forms that bolster their physical strength. Though, this comes with a catch. A cambion unlike a nephilim needs a catalyst for their powers. Said catalysts must be connected in one way or another to their demonic parentage. Filled either with a portion of their parent’s essence or even filled with a memory, these items would be enough to help a cambion unleash their true power.

Most cambions are born to single mothers or a surprise for a single father that finds a child at his doorstep. Due to these they rarely receive any actual gifts from their demonic parents, though those gifted with a weapon or amulet from hell are destined for greatness in their own rights.

Unlike the nephilim the Cambions have no proper organization or overall lapping connection to each other. They do not attempt to actively protect the world like the nephilim nor do they actively try to burn it down like their demonic parents. Instead cambions tend to go their own way, carving a path in the supernatural world for themselves.

Yet, they are not entirely free from either side. Seeing as some cambions have been manipulated and used by hell to further their own goals upon the earth. This is due to the fact that cambions are still half human and are not subjected to the same binding rituals as demons are. Allowing them to slip by certain marked regions or completely ignored the powers of lesser creatures, some of hells most famous successes in the town have been because of the intervention of their cambion allies. Still, a cambion or two has still stood up against hell and decided that serving humanity was the better option.

Weaknesses
Cambions are like nephilim in the sense of strength and vitality. Able to withstand blows brought by mortal means but not entirely immune. Cambions are much more susceptible to angelic weapons than demonic ones but will still suffer all the same if the attack hits just the right spot.
