Halfbreed: Difference between revisions

The White Man always called me "Indian Squaw"''|'''Cher''', "Half Breed"}}

 

 

Nevertheless, the [[Moral Guardians]] of the local town have branded you the Half-Breed. ("Half-caste" is a roughly synonymous term.)

A word of caution: any revelation of [[Maligned Mixed Marriage|your parentage]] might bring down the wrath of a mob wielding [[Torches and Pitchforks]] of [[Doomy Dooms of Doom|doom]] at any given moment. Always have an escape plan ready, even if it requires mass carnage.

== Anime and Manga ==

* In ''[[So Ra No wo To]]'', it is implied that [[Heroic Bastard|Rio]] is of mixed heritage {{spoiler|since she lacks the [[Phenotype Stereotype]] looks of her blonde, green-eyed half-sister and her last names are Japanese/Slavic}}. Most probably a very common thing in Helvetia and no one seems to care.

* [[Katekyo Hitman Reborn|Hayato Gokudera]] is half Italian, half Japanese, which lead to him being rejected by every mafia family except for the one headed by the almost totally Japanese Tsuna Sawada.

* A non human example, Blue from ''[[Wolfs Rain]]'' is a wolf-dog. Upon meeting Cheza, the dog side of her virtually disappears and she joins the other wolves.

* The main character of ''[[Kemono no Souja Erin]]'' is a child of a woman of the Mist People and a Tohda breeding man. Results of such unions are usually called "Akun Meh Chai" ("Child of Impossibilities"), because their parents should have never meet, yet alone fall in love.

* In the ''[[Shadows of the Apt]]'' series Half Breeds are treated as an inferiour class by all other races (despite many of the different kinden living in peace with strong interracial friendships and couplings). However all the [[Halfbreed]] characters we meet are either already being used for their blend of abilities or eventually rise above their racist superiours: Totho {{spoiler|is recruited by the Wasp military engineer Dariandrephos (another Half Breed who outshone his peers)who recognises his talent for designing weapons.}} Also {{spoiler|Tisamon's Half Breed daughter is a mix of the two most rivaled races Spider and Mantis. Unsurprisingly she also becomes grudgingly accepted among the Mantis kinden for her talent as a Weaponsmaster.}}

* Rayona from ''A Yellow Raft In Blue Water'' is half Native American and half African American, and finds that she fits in with neither culture.

* [[The Adventures of Tom Sawyer|Injun Joe.]] The bad kind. And he's even referred about as such several times.

* Can't forget the [[HP Lovecraft|Whateley Twins]] Wilbur and [[Eldritch Abomination|OH MY FUCKING GOD WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?]]

** ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]'', Cecil and {{spoiler|his brother Golbez}} are half-human and half-Lunarian. They're the same as regular humans mostly, but Cecil doesn't know of his heritage for most of the game, while {{spoiler|Golbez}} and Fusoya are both damn powerful mages.

** ''[[Final Fantasy V]]'', Bartz is fully human, but his parents hail from different halves of the world that {{spoiler|existed as separate planets}} for centuries.

** ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'', Aerith is half-human and half-Cetra. She's mostly normal aside from the fact she [[Hearing Voices|hears the planet speak to her]], and can use magic without Materia.

** ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'', Yuna is the daughter of a human and an Al-Bhed, an ethnicity distinguished by their green eyes and spiral irises. The mixture manifested itself as Yuna's [[Mismatched Eyes]].
