Half-Human Races (no stats required, just need ideas and flavor)

Chokeman(Half-Choker)
Chokemen are usually born from Choker incursion's to the surface world. They are often friendly beings, but they sometimes have a tricky, untrustworthy sleight about them on some occasions. Chokemen look like short, scrawny humans. They have pale and somewhat slimy skin, and slightly fanged teeth. They have very little hair, except perhaps on their heads. Their oddest features however are their slightly abrupt bot-bellies and inexplicably long, prehensile arms. Their favored class is Rogue.

Chulmak(Half-Chuul)
Chulmak are possessive and openly agressive beings. They do not take lightly to those who steal their things or hurt their friends. Infact, its this short-fused nature they possess is what fuels their survival instinct. Chulmak are about 8 1/2 to 9 ft. tall. They look in most respects like an massive, exoskeltoned ogre. Their bottom jaw opens up like a mandible, and short red tentacles protrude from within. They have massive 3 fingered-pincer-like-hands and digigrade spint legs that end with insectile feet. They also have a short stumpy tail. Their favored class is Barbarian.

Cloaken(Half-Cloaker)
Cloaken are mysterious beings that keep themselves to themselves. They pursue unusual motives in the name of good or evil, hiding in the secret places of the wilderness or civilization. At first a Cloaken may just look like an impressively tall human in a dark-blue-over-coat with a hood covering their head and concealing their face. Infact at this point, it is only if they speak in their resonic voice do its opponents feel an inexplicable subsonic chill, plus two red pin-points may glow from within the hood. However when the cloak opens, its is actually part of their body. They look like a pale, noseless human with fanged teeth and red eyes. From their arms taper the cloak-like structure that makes up their body. These cloak-like flaps connect the arms, torso and legs to the their blue backs, and the open hood resembles a cobras hood. Their favored class is Wizard.

Manatrice(Half-Cockatrice)
Manatrice are simple and cowardly beings, living as hermits most often or traveling the wilderness in nomadic packs. They look like dwarve-sized, but they are not stocky and stout like them. Infact they look like thin, lanky almost emancipated beings with slightly hunched backs. Their long-fingered hands trail along the floor and they have crooked, digigrade legs that end with 4 toed bird-like feet. Females have a cowl or messy, rough feathers instead of hair, but men have very few. Instead they have small head-crest and a wattle. In place of the mouth and nose they have a small-beak. To top it off, these chicken-like creatures have a short, thick-set tail that is green in color. The rest of their skin is mostly human, but its looks somewhat flaky and disevelled. Their favored class is Ranger.

Mouatla(half-couatl)
Mouatla are self-proclaimed justicars and bane of evil-doers. Unlike most half-humans, Mouatla are respected or even revered in some places. They are by nature kind and fair, though merciless when injustice has taken place. Mouatla can sometimes be quite vain, but when push-comes-to-shove they get the deed done. Mouatla look in most respects like a 9 to 10 ft. tall yuan-ti, though they are a lot more draconic in appearance rather than snakish. Their tail-legs end with lonf, white feathers and two large angelic wings sprout from their backs. They also have larger fangs and two small bony horns of their temples. Their favored class is Paladin.

Mantler(half-darkmantle)
Mantler are simple, almost animilistic beings that spend most of their time travelling in small nomadic groups. Though primitive they are, they are surprisingly practical and resourceful creatures. They tend to express little personality, because emotions are often supressed by almost bestial survival instinct. Mantler are about the size of dwarves, as well as the stoutness and stocky form. They have dark, scaly skin and little if any hair at all. Their appearance is odd, because they look like a small dark octopus covering a small humanoids head. They have small round heads with a pointed face and two tiny red eyes. Where their neck would be is a frill of membranous skin that is interspersed every now and then with knobbly tentacles. Their favored class is Ranger.

Delvman(half-delver)
Delvmen, though rare, are often found in the company of dwarves aiding them with mining. Delvmen have a keen instinct when underground, and feel right at home in the damp and dark of a mining pit. Though they can eat vegetation and meat, they prefer rocks and minerals anyday. Delvmen look like fat, hairless ogres in most respects. Their almost slug-like skin is always covering a light coating of mildy acidic slime. They have blunt hands and feet that end with crystalline black claws. They have small slits that seem to function as a nose and a gaping, wide hole for a mouth, all on a surprisingly small head. Their favored class is Fighter.

Destramana(half-destrachan)
Destramana are violent and sadistic beings. Though not as cruel and evil as true Destrachan, they still retain their fascination with inflicting pain. Infact a great deal of Destramana are not evil, but rare is a truly good Destramana. Many have just grown aggressive over the years because of the amount of prejudice and hate they receive. Destramana are about same size as most humans, but a lot more stockier and stout like a dwarve. Though their skin is human-like in most respects, they have pacths of rough, bumpy scales on their arms, legs, neck, back and temples. They have white vestigal eyes because they are blind, but like a real Destrachan this gives them no problem in sensing their enviroment. They have digigrade feet that end with reptilian, velociraptor-like feet. Their hands end with sharp claws, as well as a small tail. They have spiny, pointed ears and mouth that can open very wide. Inside this mouth is not only a sharp set of fangs, but a another set that circles the inside the back of the neck. Their favored class is Bard.

Somebody help me out here!... :)

Doppelfolk (half-doppelganger)
Doppelfolk (or doppelkin) are usually born when a Doppelganger seduces a female human. However some Doppelgangers are not as selfish and self-intrested as most of their kind, and truly do fall in love with humans. Most Doppelfolk children growing up in this sort of affectionate enviroment gain their parents kindly nature, however a few inherit their natural, uncaring ancestry. Doppelfolk are basicly indistinquishable from Humans. Doppelfolk can change their appearance like Doppelgangers, but they only turn into another Humans and those within their gender. They often take on Human appearances that other Humanoids would find attractive. Their real form is surprisingly Human as well. They appear as a slim, completly hairless Human with light-grey skin. They have also have oddly colored, vestigal eyes with a horizontal slit pupil. Their favored class is Rogue.

This is an interesting thread. I recommend Green Ronin's "Bastards and Bloodlines" book, which has a dozen or so already-made halfbreed races complete with PC stats, and gives rules on how to make more.

Some exemples of pre-made versions:
Blinklings (Blind Dog/Halfling)
Burrowers (Gnome/Umber Hulk)
Half-Goblinoids (Gnome/Goblin; Goblin/Halfling; Dwarf/Hobgoblin; Elf/Bugbear)
Jovians (Giant/Human or Orc)
Lashers (Dwarf/Roper)
Morlocks (Gnomes/Troglodytes)
Stheins (Elf/Naga).
Woodwose (Elf/Treant)

Exemples of templates given to create other halfbreeds is the Half-Beholder, the Half-Creature (Biped) and Half-Creature (Quadruped), the Half-Medusa, the Half-Titan, and the Half-Elementals.

It's a very good book for those who want to create nearly any kind of PC race or quasi-race imaginable. :)

I have heard of it, I might buy it. I have created a hybrid template before. Take a look at it...

I would like to see Green Ronins version though...:D
 

Displaci(Half-Displacer Beast)
Displaci are cunning and sly beings, they have stealthy personalites as sneaky as their forms. Though normally not evil people find them difficult to trust. This preconception isn't ill concieved, because they have innate urge to trick others rather than sticking to plans. Displaci look like tall, very-slim humans with a purple tint to their tanned skin. They seem to have cat-like, almost oriental eyes and a short thin tail. Their nails are sharp and their feet digigraded and feline. Their oddest feature is a pair of long tentacles that protrude just below the back of their shoulders. Their favored class is Rogue.
 

Devokama(Half-Devourer)
Devokama are unusual beings that have often lost their fore-fathers evil, but still imbue their cannibilism and gluttony. They have a odd obsession with eating raw meat. They appear as normal people in most ways, however they pale dry skin and somewhat emaciated frames. Despite this they are far from well fed, though they can rarely sate their hunger for long. They have small but sharp teeth, and their nailess fingers and sharp and dark. Their strangest feature however is a tormented humanoid face where their belly should be. Their favored class is Necromancer.

Digestil(Half-Digestor)
Digestil are simple and savage creatures, they prefer a life of solitude in the wilderness, surviving the harsh conditions of nature rather than leading a complicated life in civilized lands. They appear as a somewhat short but long-framed human. Their skin is scaly and hairless, but they retain their human skin tones apart from the occasional green hint here and there. They have long legs that bend in the other direction, that end with three-toed dinosaur-like feet. Their arms are somewhat small but as dextrous as most humans, they have 3 fingered hands (3 fingers 1 thumb) and end with sharp nails. They might have a small amount of hair of their head or facial features, but most are completly hairless. They have small green ridge along their back that trails of into a small tail. Their favored class is Ranger.
