Demigod Race
Demigod
“Born of mortal flesh and divine essence, demigods walk the line between realms — burdened by legacy, empowered by destiny.”
Race: Demigod
Description:
Demigods are the children of divine beings and mortals, shaped by both the chaos of the world and the order (or fury) of the heavens. Whether descended from gods of war, wisdom, death, or nature, demigods carry within them a spark of the eternal — manifesting in miraculous resilience, innate power, and a presence that turns heads and stills crowds.
Each demigod bears a unique divine mark or manifestation — glowing eyes, elemental hair, voices that echo with godly resonance — and their journey is often one of trial, revelation, and reckoning.
