Curse users species

should curse users be considered their own species? and if so, should supercurse users be subspecies?
here are the arguments:

  1. made out of magic energy
  2. can turn into their curse’s magic
  3. as shown in one of the story quests, they dont require food
  4. it’s told that after a human touches a curse, the two become one being, so the curse user is not fully human at the bare minimum
  5. pretty sure that in arcane chronicles when durza was fighting an earth curse user, he couldn’t feel any magic or life present in the guy, correct me if im wrong on this one, pls

Yeah, they should
Their genetics are different as well given how Calvus exists with a fraction of his grandfather’s power

No, since a curse-using dragon isn’t going to be the same as a curse-using human.

Magic power is hereditary, it’s the same for mages

okay, curse users are a specie as a whole, human curse users and dragon curse users are subspecies, does that satisfy you?

5

The curse adheres to their form, not the other way around. Otherwise, you’d have human curse users transforming into dragons and vice versa.

6

i meant like, those who were originally dragons are their own subspecies of curse users, same for originally-humans

7

are you trying to say that curses themselves are a species? because if its the other way around thats not how it works

8

well uh curse users can reproduce so they’re still human

9

Just because they can reproduce doesn’t
mean they aren’t considered a different species I mean grizzly bears and polar bears are different enough to be considered different species but can still reproduce

10

no. curse users are the ones that wield sea curses, they’re the species

11

yeah

12

then how could all curse users be a subspecies of curse user if the users aren’t related by species?

13

Nah

14

as a specie, curse users have these traits:

yep, that’s all that my imagination gave me

15

just because something is like a crab doesn’t mean that it’s a crab

16

clearly not entirely, since they can reproduce

17

sex curse

18

okay you know where this is going

19

yea, i have no arguments left for now.

Considering that a curse can affect genetics, I’d say you make a good point.
