What kind of Valon?
What kind of Valon you want will affect his personality, experience, and appearance.
Traditional Valon
Valos who have no or negligable other bloodlines in them. They make up the majority of the population and come in many varieties. Traditional Valos have pale to tan skin. Their hair can be black, brown, blond, or red, and either straight, wavy, or swoop upwards. They can have any eyecolor. They have no outstanding abilities not found in humans. The average Valos stands at around 6ft.
Haivalo
A haivalo is extremely rare and is when a Valon leans more towards his male sex over his female. He is generally more masculine in appearance and has an unstable etsera phase. Haivalo are rarely able to carry a fetus to term.
Example: Egalan
Essvalo
The essvalo are the female-leaning counterparts to the haivalo and are just as rare. They are more feminine in appearance and are rarely able to sire children.
Mosvalo
On rare occasions have the Valos received visitors from across the ocean. The Mosa are a sea-faring people descended from Kenya who have made attempts to rediscover the Americas and those able to make it have often had romantic relations with their hosts. The offspring of these Mosa have dark skin and other traits of their sire that may present themselves for several generations. The Mosvalo are found among the Atlantic and sometimes the Mexico Clans. They often have the adventurous streak of their sire that got them across the ocean in the first place.
Example: Ronan
Half-Karkans
About one-fourth of the Valos population has some karkan blood in them, and most obvious are the half-karkans. The forced offspring of the Karkan and one of their victims, half-karkans are rarely raised by their dam. They have grey skin and blank eyes that glow yellow when angered, and sometimes as they age will develop horns and spines. Their hair is either black, white, or bright red, straight or wild in type. Half-karkans are stunted in their ability to feel empathy for others. They have the telepathy of their sire and can pull forth the worst fears and memories of someone when in physical contact. They oftentimes prefer solitude. Half-karkans are found in all Clans, though most commonly in the Plains and Atlantic Clans. The Mexico and New England Clans suffer Karkan attacks less often than their nomadic kinsman and as such have less experience with half-karkans. Those who live in the cities may find themselves ostracized and can grow up paranoid and prone to lash out. This, of course, only encourages the urban Valos' opinion of the 'dangerous half-karkan'.
Example: Kaisara, Varan
Quarter-karkans
Quarter-karkans look like normal Valos save a trait or two of their half-karkan parent, more likely if the half-karkan was their dam. This may be blank eyes, strange birthmarks, or white hair. Quarter-karkans have limited telepathy, often bound to touch. Opposite their parent, quarter-karkans are known to be very warm and empathic to others.
Example: Tebric, Vamic
Any further generations from a quarter-karkan will not possess telepathy, but have a keen sense towards other people.
