Background - 2029: Cambions

 Cambions

General
Created one of two ways: 

An Incubus is able to control themselves and not feed on a woman they are having sex with but leave a little of themselves behind in them.

A Succubus is able to control themselves and not feed on a man and leave a little of themselves behind in them, to be passed along to the next female the man has sex with.            

The resulting human Paranormal is a Cambion.

            Powers are always ‘on’.

            Powers
            Are immune to Ubi and to sexual Paras.

Like Dhampirs with Vampyres, Cambions can track Ubi extremely well. Also like Dhampirs, an Ubi who senses a Cambion nearby may feel a strong wave of terror wash over them.

While immune to sexual Paras, they have very strong pheromones which make them very sexually attractive to human normals.

            Weakness & Limitations
Their powers make them more resistant to Vampyres and other Undead but only up to a point. They’re very specific to Ubi.

Pheromones from one Cambion don’t affect another.

Their pheromones affect ‘normals’ way more than other Paranormals, regardless of the Paranormals power.

            Lifestyle
With practice and age many learn to tamp down their pheromones so they’re not so overwhelming to others.
           
            Side Effects
            Are often sexually insatiable. Many become sex addicts.

As long as their Incubus or Succubus “parent” exists, they are often tormented by visions and nightmares related to them and their activity. This seems to happen no matter how far away geographically the Ubi is.
           
            Other Paras, Others and the Undead
While partially resistant to Vampyres and Lamia, are considered very tasty by both as well.

Often get along well with Dhampirs, for obvious reasons.
