The half-dragons in the Duke of Wyvern's domain were not offspring of dragons and humans, but rather beings that emerged after the ascension of the current Duke, Clement. Possessing intellect and empathy surpassing dragons, coupled with extraordinary talent far exceeding normal extraordinary beings, they were Clement's most formidable asset after the colossal dragons themselves.
Their creation was inextricably linked to the mad Duke, Blatcher Bloodust, who was obsessed with biological alchemy and viewed his subjects as mere materials, even establishing blood banks, bone banks, and organ banks… to categorize them.
Odelia's raid on one of Bloodust's largest blood banks had incensed Blatcher, forcing her subordinates to resort to desperate measures, attracting attention through near-suicidal means at Dispute Fortress.
The half-dragons were Bloodust's masterpiece, but such creations often necessitated countless failures.
