Cambions

A cambion is the offspring of an otherworldly fiend - typically a succubus, though not always - and a humanoid. Both infernal and demonic cambions have been known to exist, and in either case, they frequently act as the instruments and agents of their extraplanar parent in the mortal world.
The mortal blood within a cambion's veins allows them to freely travel through the Gate of Fire, where other fiends must find a portal or be summoned by mortals. However, this same aspect of their lineage affords cambions a great weakness compared with other fiends. Though their bodies will not wither with time, a cambion slain will not reform in the lower planes, even if they were killed outside them. They die but once.  
The strength of a cambion is largely determined by their infernal lineage. The most common type, the offspring of succubi (with leathery wings), are typically inferior to the children of erinyes (with feathered wings).
