refimprove date May 2010 In Middle Ages medieval legend , a cambion is a half human offspring of a succubus and an incubus , though it s technically an offspring of a male and female human who had been victims of the demons. Creation The cambion is a still birth that shows no sign of life outside of being alive, meaning that the child has, for example, no pulse and no breath. This continues until the child is about seven years old, where it becomes increasingly difficult to differentiate one from a human. A cambion is usually devilishly cunning, and angelically beautiful, able to persuade even the most strong hearted individual to do his or her bidding. Most cambions have evil tendencies due to their demon parents. Caliban character Caliban , the son of the witch Sycorax Shakespeare Sycorax in The Tempest play The Tempest by William Shakespeare , is a cambion Merlin from the Arthurian legend is also a cambion. According to the Malleus Maleficarum , demons, including the incubus and the succubus , are incapable of reproduction cquote Moreover, to beget a child is the act of a living body, but devils cannot bestow life upon the bodies they assume because life formally proceeds only from the soul, and the act of generation is the act of the physical organs which have bodily life. Therefore bodies which are assumed in this way cannot either beget or bear. ref name Malleus Malleus Maleficarum , Part I, Question III ref Due to this inability to create or nurture life, the method of the creation of a cambion is necessarily protracted.

In universe date October 2009 Primary sources date October 2007 In the World of Greyhawk campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons role playing game , the Wolf Nomads , properly known as the Wegwiur , is a political state of the Flanaess . The name also applies to the tribes of nomadic horsemen who dwell within these lands. History The Wolf Nomads are descended from the Relentless Horde , which swept into the area around 320 Common Year Greyhawk CY . After the death of the Kha Khan Ogobanuk , the Tiger Nomads split from the Horde and the Wolf Nomads came to be ruled by a ruler known as the tarkhan . Since then, the tarkhans have ruled according to the decrees set forth in the Great Yassa of Ogobanuk , which describes the traditions of illusion, leadership, and the proper way of nomadic life. The Wolf Nomads have opposed Iuz since he first appeared on the borders of his lands. Iuz claimed the Howling Hills , where the Wolf Nomads have traditionally buried their honored dead, including Ogobanuk himself. They defeated him at the Battle of Black Water Bend just before the Greyhawk Wars , breaking the Old One s siege of Eru Tovar. After the wars, Tang the Horrific encouraged them to invade Iuz s kingdom, and many of the cambion s nonhuman troops were slain. Geography The lands of the Wolf Nomads are situated in the Bitter North region of the Flanaess , north of Perrenland on the far shore of Lake Quag . People The native folk of the Wolf Nomads are primarily Baklunish with a great deal of genetic mixture with the Rovers of the Barrens , to the east. As a result of these Flan characteristics, Wolf Nomads have slightly darker complexions than their Tiger Nomads Tiger Nomad cousins. Each Wolf Nomad warrior must capture a wild wolf cub as a rite of manhood, raising it to be his companion. Civilized Wolf Nomads in Eru Tovar sometimes simply buy wolf cubs. Population Religion The Wolf Nomads revere the Baklunish deities Geshtai and Istus . From long ago contact with the Oeri ... more details
