Simic Hybrids use magic to fuse different life forms together. In recent years, they have expanded this research to humanoid subjects, magically transferring the traits of various animals to Mens, Elves, and Vedalken. The goal of the project is to build an army of soldiers perfectly adapted to different combat situations. These hyper-evolved specimens are called Simic Hybrids, although they sometimes refer to themselves as Guardians.
Hybrids begin life as adult Humans, Elves, or Vedalken. They age slightly accelerated, so their maximum lifespan is probably slightly reduced. The project has not worked long enough to see the full effect of this phenomenon.
