Half-Life (3.5e Race)
Half-Life
Personality
Most Half-life are slow moving, spiteful, and clever. They prey on the strong and try to remain discreet. Some however, try to become doctors and save lives instead of taking them for personal use.
Physical Description
Average "Halfies" are frail, pale, grey eyed, white or grey haired, and harmless looking.
Relations
Half-lifes tend to be solitary, but often travel with others for personal reasons. They see stronger people as useful tools when alive and even more useful after they have died. Weak creatures better be good with magic or they're virtually useless in the eyes of a Half-life.
Alignment
Usually evil in alignment, but can choose otherwise. No matter how dark, nothing is set in stone.
Lands
Being the child of a human and a vampire(or similar creature) they can come from almost anywhere. The highest occurrences of Halfies are in dense towns with dark alleys and sewers good for housing the deathly ones.
Religion
Almost every Half-life both hates and respects the gods and goddesses of death. They respect them out of their knowledge and power over death, but hate the deities because they are scorned by them for stopping the natural process of death.
Language
Common is their main tongue. They can eventually learn Elven, Infernal, Abyssal, Goblin, Orc, Undercommon, and Draconic.
Names
At birth they are either given human or vampiric names.
