Okay, I can't remember where I read it, but as I recall, children of mixed metahuman heritage are predominantly the race of one parent or the other. Unlike fantasy games, there are no half-orks or half-elves.

This "official" viewpoint is bolstered by the fact that human parents can still have UGE'd or goblinized children (last I heard - I'm not up to speed on the Comet stuff).

So, all official rules aside, having parents of different races could make for interesting character material. Does anyone have any house rules for half-breeds? Alternately, can anyone steer me to a sourcebook that more clearly explains the genetic relationships among metahumans?

(If this topic has been hashed out before, I apologize.)

Thanks!
