Abomination Subtype[edit]
Abominations are horrible half-divine half-monster beasts long ago sealed away by the Gods who fathered them. These creatures are both extremely powerful and, over their long imprisonment, became anathema to the divine, a source of anti-divinity and hunger for divine sparks denied to them. Abomination are divided between generations, the 1st generation being the direct product of Godblood while later generations grow weaker as their connections to both their God lineage and the primal abominations dim.

A Abomination creature possesses the following traits (unless otherwise noted in a creature’s entry).
