Home -> Races -> Half-Vafer
[under review, might not exist anymore]

These hybrids between Vafer and Humans or High Elves have many of the fox-like traits of their Vafer parent but are primarily Human or Elf looking. Half-Vafer have pointed, wide ears (even longer if their father is an Elf), a somewhat elongated face similar to a snout but not as long or obvious as that of a canine. Some Half-Vafer are even born with whiskers. Although not always covered in hair like their Vafer mother, Half-Vafer do have more, and longer hair than most Humans or Elves. Although it is not known why, only Vafer women can birth Half-Vafer, meaning the Human or Elven parent is always the father. Rarely, a Half-Vafer is born with a tail as well.
