Half-Fiends are the war-born scions of a once-enslaved people who now seek dominion. With an unshakable belief in their superiority and unmatched resilience, these fearsome half-bloods stride into battle with pride and fury. Their origins are unknown—but their hunger for power is unmistakable.

Though their celestial counterparts bring balance, the Half-Fiends embrace ambition. Descended from something infernal, they bear a darkness in their blood and a desire for conquest in their bones. They walk openly in the world now, but the whisper of their lineage carries fear in every corner.

Not truly evil, Half-Fiends see themselves as rightful rulers—meant to be feared, respected, and obeyed.
