Half-Daeh

The Half-Daeh are a interbred hybrid between a human and a Daeh'ypeel, sporting traits shared between both parent species.

History
After many civil conflicts, several Daeh'ypeel would escape from their homeworld and traverse to the regions of space. Colonising the planet of Kamon, they encountered the sudden opening of a wormhole where a community of 'New Age' humans entered, introducing themselves as members of the Anubis Academy. As both groups were rebelling against their own kind, they formed a national band together and quickly befriended one another. Eventually, due to spiritual reasonings, their relationships scaled and interbreeding occured, birthing the Half-Daeh.

As decades passed, the Half-Daeh would also reproduce with one another and they soon populated at a rapid pace. However, after several planetary changes, humans were biologically incapable of handling the transformation Kamon went through and eventually vanquished, despite how hard the Half-Daeh attempted to aid them. This infuriated the Daeh'ypeel ancestry and many chose to abandon their offspring.

Although they felt great sorrow, the Half-Daeh still felt destined to carry on. They began to yearn for mystical superiority, surreal knowledge and generally being 'connected to the universe', expanding across the stars as they went through an arcane odyssey, hoping to fully reunite with humans and to be forgiven by the Daeh'ypeel masses. Their biggest attraction was the world of Eversorge, in which they found meaning in the religion of the seasonal deities and everything else that laid within the land.

Language
Carrying on knowledge from their ancestors, Half-Daeh do not have an official language, but they are fluently capable of speaking and understanding most human languages, Daeh and other alien dialects.

Culture and Society
Being biological hybrids, Half-Daeh also carried cultural traits from their ancestors. They may be prideful and narcissistic of their background, but they heavily approve of diversity and diplomacy, as they are in fact curious to venture out and know a further understanding of the universe. Despite this, they are usually frustrated with mainstream cultures to the point of depression, living in obscurity.

Possessing extraordinary intellectual capacities as a trait from their Daeh parents, Half-Daeh are psionically powerful and can maintain a hypnagogic state. These natural powers encourage them to gather magic knowledge and travel in the form of covens, as if they were witches.

Religion
As they were born from a rebellious group of Daeh'ypeel, Half-Daeh do not tolerate their ancestral creators as much as their parent species did and are much more spiritually tolerable. However, some vulnerable individuals convert to extremist Daeh groups in an attempt to be forgiven by their ancestors, encouraging a hatred towards other religions.
