The Ever-Dying

Hunger: discovery.

Prime power: none.

World: Earth.

From the viewpoint of the magical among the Mythos, humans are dying from the moment they’re born. 

They are horrifyingly short-lived. Anything can kill them; worse, they have no magic, and can neither wield nor perceive its use. They can, however, reproduce at a rate rarely seen outside of rabbits.

The Ever-Dying are unique, too, in that their blood may mix with any more powerful, creating the hybrids known as Kin. Thus, they have produced the unpredictable, and proven themselves worthy of survival.

He who chose the Peoples, Naktam, Lord of the Night Whispers, regards them as precious, and his intervention and protection enabled both their proliferation and development of technology and scientific wonder.
