So I have had this idea kicking around in my head in in my various fluff notes for a few years now. It started when I was thinking of alternative sorts of creatures that might inhabit the World of Darkness. The idea I came up with was Cambion families, in some part inspired by the Revenant families and some other sources (Sawny Bean, True Detective, other bizarre inbred families) but removed from the idea of vampiric masters. Basically, families who are descended from demons and have a variety of different quirks and powers based on this along with their own political dynamics.
I was wanting to make them relatively dark - ancient inbred families which practice all variety of horrors in their old ancestral mansions, influenced by their demonic heritage as well as by the conservatism and weird upbringing. I think one of my inspirations is the Addams Family, though they would be played straight more than for dark comedy. I wanted there to be a number of families as well, each incorporating different takes on this theme and perhaps having different sorts of demonic powers.
I've come up with a few ideas so far but I feel like I need to flesh them out a bit more.
I was wondering if any of the creative folk at OPF could brainstorm a bit and come up with some ideas that I might incorporate?
I may share some of my development so far, but right now I don't want to because I don't want anything I've done yet to inhibit the suggestions of anybody who has cool ideas.

I created a wiki to show my progress on this, it is here: https://cambionthelegacy.obsidianportal.com
