Note that while racial mixing can produce fairly good characters, it is frowned upon heavily and not socially accepted for the most part. Half-breeds (or 'Breeds) can expect tom be beaten up, snubbed, riduculed of (in the case of Fraal blood) feared. Some, such as crossed with Sesheyan, are often very rare to come to terms. Most 'breeds tend to look like their father more than their mother, while Fraal blood basically makes for a very weak and thin person.
