Mongrelfolk

Most have heard of Half-Elves, many of Half-Orcs and some of more exotic mixes between races; Mongrelfolk are whispered as a cautionary tale to the young folk a mite too curious about those outside their ilk; Half Dwarf, A Quarter Man, An Eighth Halfling, and some drips of stranger blood, makes a Mongelman, it is said. The wise dismiss these tales, claiming Mongrelfolk are the work of wizardry, whether by intent or accident, which twists the blood and body of common folk beyond recognition. In either case, Mongrelfolk are outcasts. Rare enough that most never meet another of their kind, there are rare times where an entire village has a generation of Mongrelfolk born to them. Some come to the cities, such as Drakkenhall, where if they cannot find acceptance, they may at least find kindred.
