Hybrid Races?
« on: July 24, 2008, 08:46:00 pm »
I am not sure if it is me but I am starting to notice players claiming to be a mix of two races, for example Ylian and Ynnwn. I am not sure if this is possible since in modern day society with genetics and all it would be impossible for a cow and a chicken to have offspring. But then again this is Planeshift. Would anyone be able to verify if this is possible or not?

For common genetic rules, any half-breed will have a prevailing race that will determine its physical traits. For this reason, the main races are relatively pure. In other words, it can't happen that the races merge together forming a single mixed race: if someone has a lemur father and an elf mother, he will belong to one race or to the other.

Check the books in the library. There is one there that addresses this very topic.

But Ynnwns can't reproduce with anything but Dermorians, Diabolis, or themselves. So that example wouldn't really work out, Colinb.
