17	Most {{Half Human Hybrid}}s are created when members of two different species conceive a child together, [[TrueBreedingHybrid or by descendants thereof]]. This trope applies to characters who at birth are fully one species (usually human), but somewhere down the road are turned (deliberately or by accident) into a hybrid between their original species and another one. May or may not occur through magical or scientific means, but in case the subject will often receive HybridPower as a direct result.

19	May overlap with BioAugmentation. May occur through FusionDance or as part of a HybridizationPlot.
20
21	Compare OurWerebeastsAreDifferent, MonstrousHumanoid, MixAndMatchMan, MixAndMatchCritters, FleshGolem, and FrankensteinsMonster when the "hybrid" part is more physically blatant.

26
27	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
28	* Michiru and Nazuna from ''Anime/BNABrandNewAnimal'' were originally ordinary humans, but became beastmen in their teenage years [[spoiler:after accidentally being infused with beastman blood.]]
29	* ''Manga/{{Claymore}}'': The titular female warriors are created by grafting yoma tissue into human women, making them half human and half yoma.
30	* ''Manga/ChainsawMan'':
31	** Some humans' DealWithTheDevil, including the title character, involves them merging with their contracted devil for PowersViaPossession.
32	** Although fiends are devils PossessingADeadBody, the merger's permanence effectively makes them a different type of hybrid where the devil is in total control.
33	* ''Manga/DeliciousInDungeon'': Beastkin like Lycion and Izutsumi are magically engineered {{Permafusion}}s of a human and an animal, right down to the [[MergerOfSouls soul]]. Lycion had his canine elements added in adulthood and suppresses them with magic when he wants to appear as an ordinary elf, whereas Izutsumi the [[CatFolk catgirl]] was created in infancy and would revert to a cat if she tried to do the same.
34	* Devilmen of ''Franchise/{{Devilman}}'' are humans who fuse with teleporting demons. Some, like protagonist Akira, can switch between human and demon forms at will, but others are stuck with hybrid forms.
35	* ''Anime/DigimonDataSquad'': The Bio-Hybrids are humans that have been artificially infused with Digimon DNA by the BigBad. This lets them turn into the Digimon whose DNA was infused into them, and gives them superhuman abilities in their human form.
36	* Several characters in ''Manga/{{Dorohedoro}}'' are humans who have been partially transmuted by mages wanting to 'experiment', often giving them animal body parts as a result. TheHero of the story, Kaiman, is one such person and has a lizard head on top of an otherwise human body. Killing the mage responsible reverts the transformation, so Kaiman is hunting down the one who transformed him to get his original head back. To his benefit, being under the effect of transformative magic makes him immune to any further attempts to transform him.
37	* In ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' chimeras are produced by transmuting two individuals of different species together. Human chimeras are heavily illegal, which naturally meant that Father's cabal within the government created several of them as SuperSoldiers.
38	* While most hanyou are born in ''Manga/{{Inuyasha}}'' as a child of a human and a [[{{Youkai}} youkai]], there are also those who were once human. They offered a pact to the lower youkai. [[PuppeteerParasite Their soul in exchange for a demonic body]]. [[BigBad Naraku]] was born this way, but the anime also shows two other unnaturally-created hanyou, namely Sara Asano and Tsubaki.
39	* ''Anime/KillLaKill'': [[spoiler:Ryuko Matoi]] was born human, but [[spoiler:Ragyo]]'s experiment turned her into a human/Life Fiber hybrid.
40	* ''Manga/OnePiece'': The Zoan Devil Fruits let their eaters [[{{Animorphism}} turn into]] hybrids of their original species and the species that the specific Devil Fruit gives. Chopper is a reindeer that ate the Human-Human Fruit and thus can turn partly humanoid, while Lucci is a human that ate the Cat-Cat Fruit. A later arc eventually introduces artificial Zoan fruits called SMILE. Eating one is like taking a lottery where the least horrible side effects are gaining useful partial transformations into an animal.
41	* Shinichi and Migi from ''Manga/{{Parasyte}}'' merge more and more until they are a mix of human and parasite.
42	* Chimerization is a type of black magic in ''Anime/{{Slayers}}'' that turns creatures and people into artificial hybrids. Through chimerization, you can even become half something that does not normally breed, like a golem (as Zelgadiss, Lina's friend, demonstrates).
43	* Ken Kaneki from ''Manga/TokyoGhoul'' was a normal human being. After an accident that almost killed him, he is given organs from a [[OurGhoulsAreCreepier ghoul]] and becomes a human-ghoul hybrid in the process.
44	[[/folder]]
45
46	[[folder:Card Games]]
47	* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'':
48	** This is how most of the sapient Simic hybrids came about. The Simic Combine is very big on shaping and altering one's physical form to suit one's needs, and as a result a great many Simic researchers and theoretically willing subjects who started out as regular elves or humans or merfolk end up becoming chimerical hybrids with the features of several species. A prime example is [[https://scryfall.com/card/rna/195/prime-speaker-vannifar Prime Speaker Vannifar]], who started out as an elf before turning herself into an elf/jellyfish hybrid.
49	** Crossbreed Labs, in the non-canon set ''Unstable'', explore this trope far more thoroughly than even the Simic do. Their goal is to create a society where everyone can be their true self, which they interpret to mean one where people can have the physical characteristics of whatever cretaure they desire. A typical Crossbreed Labs scientist is a chimera of a good half-dozen animals, any trace of their original self buried beneath their additions and modifications. Their leader, [[https://scryfall.com/card/ust/130/dr-julius-jumblemorph?utm_source=mw_MTGWiki Dr. Julius Jumblemorph]], brings this to its illogical extreme by having a rule that makes him every creature type in the game at once.

52	[[folder:Comic Books]]
53	* ''ComicBook/CaptainMarvelMarvelComics'': Carol Danvers, the current Captain Marvel, was born a human woman, but her DNA was altered in a way that turned her into a Kree/human hybrid. However, this was later {{retcon}}ned so that her mother was a Kree, making her a more traditional HalfHumanHybrid.
54	* ''ComicStrip/DickTracy'': The new Moon Maid was originally Glenna Ermine, the daughter of villain Poise Ermine. She won second place in a look-alike contest for the original, long deceased Moon Maid, and subsequently was kidnapped, had the original Moon Maid's DNA superimposed over her own, had facial surgery, and was given the original Moon Maid's memories. The scientists involved were using her as part of a plot to steal Diet Smith's Space Coupe. She was offered to restore her original appearance, but she declined -- [[http://dicktracy.info/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/MindyErmine.jpg considering what]] [[ButterFace she used to look like]], it's probably for the best.
55	* In ''ComicBook/DogManDavPilkey'', a human police officer and his dog partner are somehow merged into one being to save their lives when they were both injured in an explosion.
56	* ''ComicBook/{{Giantkiller}}'': [[spoiler:Jill was near-fatally shot by Richard Gray Brigstine while trying to arrest him and his cult. She was found and taken to Steven Azuma who augmented her using a Daikaiju DNA sample he had found. Jill becomes the first human-Daikaiju hybrid, granting her super strength, speed and the ability to walk through Daikaiju territory without dying.]]
57	* ''ComicBook/{{Morbius}}'': Michael Morbius accidentally turns himself into a [[BatPeople human-bat hybrid]] while trying to cure his blood disease.
58	* In ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}'', Victor Mancha is a cyborg created by Ultron. As he grows up, his body is designed to gradually become more organic, so that by the time he becomes an adult, he will be indistinguishable from a mutant and thus easily infiltrate the Avengers in order to betray them.
59	* In ''ComicBook/SpiderBoy'' Madame Monstrosity is a MadScientist who developed a process to merge humans with animals, making bizarre creatures named "Humanimals". She uses them as minions and muscle in her various schemes. [[KidHero Bailey]] was one of her victims, but was rescued by Spider-Man before she could bend Bailey to her will.
60	* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': {{Downplayed\|Trope}} with Peter Parker. While he's still considered human after the spider bite which gave him his powers, his genetic code has a very small percentage of spider DNA. The same applies to most other spider-people.
61	* Miguel O'Hara, a.k.a. ''ComicBook/SpiderMan2099'', has 50% spider DNA (though he still looks thoroughly human beyond having claws and fangs and RunningOnAllFours) after the FreakLabAccident which gave him his powers.
62	* In ''ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}}'', "temping" technology allows people to give themselves animal traits on a temporary basis, while the Transient subculture use similar technology to gradually transform themselves into TheGreys. Unfortunately the alien physiology doesn't mesh particularly well with human and no Transient has ever completed the change, so most wind up as some chimera stuck between the two species.
63	[[/folder]]
64
65	[[folder:Fan Works]]
66	* In the ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' fanfiction ''Fanfic/AbraxasHrodvitnon'', San's NotQuiteDead decapitated head [[{{Metamorphosis}} transforms]] an OnlyMostlyDead Vivienne Graham into a hybrid {{Kaiju}} while BrainUploading San's consciousness to the hybrid's [[TwoBeingsOneBody extra head]]. It's confirmed in Chapter 7 before the hybrid's second metamorphosis that it possesses two sets of DNA from either half.
67	* In the ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' [[AlternateUniverseFic AU]] fic ''Fanfic/MyAbominableMonsterClassmatesCantBeThisCute'', Salem runs a secret AcademyOfEvil in the Grimmlands, with a student body consisting of teenagers whom she kidnapped and turned into humanoid Grimm hybrids like herself using the God of Darkness's Grimm-spawning pools. RWBY themselves are among the hybrids. Weiss is considered the most physiologically-perfect of all the hybrids short of Salem, because she's the only one who came out of the transformation with her entire body intact and didn't need any transplants. Blake, on the other end of the scale, is a lot more monstrous and deranged than the other hybrids, and she can't use her aura without descending into temporary insanity because her aura was already unlocked before she was turned.
68	* In the ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'' AU ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13056744/1/Ouroboros-the-Endless-Cycle Ouroboros: The Endless Cycle]]'', Judy becomes part fox after she is bitten by a venomous chimera and Nick saves her by transmuting the bitten arm and a few of her internal organs into copies of his own.
69	* ''Fanfic/SharingTheNight'': In the climax, [[spoiler:as a result of having accidentally absorbed Discord's dragonfire when merging with the Seed of Harmony and splitting into two versions of herself, the two new Celestias end up being part dragon. They have a number of outwardly draconic traits such as sharp teeth and forked tongues, and their magic becomes supernaturally attractive to full dragons.]]

71
72	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
73	* ''Film/{{Bite}}'' has a particularly vomit-inducing example, where a bite from an insect causes the protagonist to undergo a slow and stomach-churning transformation, becoming a part-insect MonstrousHumanoid [[spoiler:before her death. The eggs she lays spawn an insect swarm, which it is implied will have the same effect on humans they bite and cause her fate to become TheVirus]].
74	* ''Film/CaptainMarvel2019'' stays true to Carol's original backstory with her being a human who became part Kree hybrid via a blood transfusion.
75	* ''Film/District9'': Early durring his [[SlowTransformation Slow]] {{Metamorphosis}}, [[spoiler:Wikus]]'s DNA is stated to be in perfect balance between human and alien. It's only for a very short amount of time though, because the alien DNA is quickly taking over the human.
76	* In ''Film/TheFly1986'', [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy intoxicated]] scientist Seth Brundle tests himself in his experimental teleportation pods, unaware that a common housefly had entered the chamber with him; as the simple computer cannot teleport both entities as separate, Seth and the fly are fused at the genetic level. Despite experiencing some initial benefits (which he incorrectly believes is the result of the teleportation procedure) like an enhanced sex drive and increased strength, he slowly begins to transform into a diseased mutant and his sanity and health deteriorate. [[spoiler:In the finale he transforms into a terrifying insectoid man, the "Brundlefly" and tries to fuse with his girlfriend and unborn child as a last-ditch effort to regain his humanity and save himself.]]

79	[[folder:Literature]]
80	* Creator/NnediOkorafor's ''Literature/{{Binti}}'': The StarfishAlien Meduse genetically engineer some of their traits into the title character so she can communicate with them [[spoiler:(including through their HiveMind)]]. This gives her tentacular AlienHair and some of the Meduse's emotions, the latter of which cause her some difficulty since they're much more prone to anger than she.
81	* The work of the owner of ''Literature/DrFranklinsIsland'' is splicing human genes into animals. He's got a little zoo of things like piglets with human hands, bats with human legs, parrots with floppy excess flesh and so on, and is more than happy to [[TestedOnHumans move on to human trials]] after [[ComingInHot a plane crashes off the coast of his island]]. Semi and Miranda are each [[LEGOGenetics implanted]] with DNA from multiple species of fish and bird respectively and transform more smoothly and completely than the zoo animals.
82	* ''Literature/{{Maddrax}}'': The first mendrites in this German SF series were created artificially, hybrids of humans and [[FishPeople hydrites]]. The mendrites seen later in the plot have been naturally born.
83	* In "Literature/{{Segregationist}}", robots (Metallos) have been [[AndroidsArePeopleToo legally recognized as people]] and humans have begun getting [[{{Cyborg}} replacement parts that are metallic in origin]]. The med-eng points out that the inverse is also happening; that [[MeatSackRobot Metallos are requesting fibrous/organic replacements]] where possible. The [[TheNamesake titular]] surgeon [[HalfBreedDiscrimination opposes such mongrelization]].
84	-->''"There is nothing wrong with a Metallo as a Metallo. As you say, they are citizens. But you're not a Metallo. You're a human being. Why not stay a human being?"''

86
87	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
88	* ''Series/Babylon5'': At the end of the first season, Minbari Ambassador Delenn uses a mysterious biotechnological device to enter a cocoon. At the beginning of the next season, she emerges from it to reveal that she's turned herself into a Minbari/Human hybrid, to be a living bridge between the species. Later on, [[spoiler:Jeffrey Sinclair goes back in time and uses the same device to also become a hybrid, taking the name Valen, becoming the great Minbari spiritual leader of old. He is also Delenn's ancestor, possibly explaining why she can use the device]].
89	* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'':
90	** The fourth season has Adam; a mix of humans, machines, and demons, who was assembled in an underground secret lab.
91	** ''Series/{{Angel}}'' shows Cordelia, who magically becomes a half-demon. As a result, she has powerful, magical powers, unlike the naturally born half-demons, but no [[SuperStrength super strength]].
92	* ''Series/DoctorWho'': In "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E13JourneysEnd Journey's End]]", a "biological metacrisis" turns [[spoiler:Donna Noble half-Time Lord]] and also creates a [[spoiler:half-human clone of the Doctor]]. Unfortunately for the new Artificial Hybrid, [[spoiler:Donna's brain is still human enough that she can't handle the entirety of the Doctor's knowledge being copied into it, so he has to wipe her memories of him to save her life, although she is still a hybrid.]]
93	* In ''Series/EarthFinalConflict'', Humans could become Atavus hybrids by being placed in a regeneration chamber with an Atavus.
94	* Played with in ''Series/StarTrekVoyager''. At first, it seems that Seska is a Bajoran (an alien species), but then the doctor finds out that her DNA resembles that of a Cardassian (another alien species). She claims that she had a disease as a kid and got a blood transfusion from a Cardassian, [[spoiler:but it turns out that she's lying and is fully Cardassian]].
95	* The supersoldiers in ''Series/TheXFiles'' have been artificially created. Before, they were ordinary humans.
96	[[/folder]]
97
98	[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
99	* Bio-Monster DNA, a half-man, half-spider resulting from a sex change operation gone wrong. More readily apparent, a product of Wrestling/{{FMW}}'s "Sports Entertainment" phase.[[/folder]]
100
101	[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
102	* ''TabletopGame/ArsMagica'': A fertility {{ritual\|Magic}} for DesignerBabies can cause two human parents to conceive a hybrid child via a trait like Faerie Blood or [[HumanDemonHybrid Devil Child]], although the mage needs to possess a personal connection to the Faerie, Divine, or Infernal Realm in order to create one in the baby.
103	* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' has had numerous examples over the years:
104	** Owlbears and [[LandShark Bulettes]] are both monsters that are famously [[AWizardDidIt created by wizards]], mixing bears and giant owls in the case of the former and armadillos and snapping turtles in the case of the latter.
105	** Many Half-(Whatever) templates in 3rd Edtion were the result of this, like the Half-Elemental.
106	** ''[[TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering The Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica]]'' has the Simic Hybrid as a new player character race. They started out as ordinary humans, elves, or vedalken that the Simic Combine experimented on (allegedly with consent of the subject; allegedly). The experimentation gives them abilities like being able to breathe underwater, CombatTentacles, or even [[SuperSpit spit acid]].
107	** Typically, driders -- [[SpiderPeople drow/spider centaurs]] -- start out as simply dark elves, before having their legs replaced with a spider's torso.
108	* ''TabletopGame/{{Pathfinder}}'':
109	** Driders, like their ''D&D'' progenitors, begin life as dark elves before being turned into elf/spider hybrids. Similarly, oronci are orcs who were transformed into orc/centipede chimeras.
110	** Areelu Vorlesh, the creator of [[HellGate the Worldwound]], began life as a regular human witch but was transformed into a half-succubus through her service to the demons of the Abyss.
111	** An obscure four-part ritual [[SlowTransformation slowly transforms]] an exceptionally evil mortal [[DemonOfHumanOrigin into a demon]]. The text notes that many people stop after the second-last step grants them the powerful [[HumanDemonHybrid Half-Fiend template]].
112	[[/folder]]
113
114	[[folder:Video Games]]
115	* Kraka-Tur from ''VideoGame/{{Arcanum}}'' is a former human who mutated himself into a DraconicHumanoid by killing Bellerogrim, the last dragon, and using his blood in a magic ritual.
116	* ''VideoGame/{{Elsword}}'': Ciel, normally a human, becomes a half-demon after forming a soul-contract with the demoness Lu.
117	* ''VideoGame/HeroesOfMightAndMagic Ashan'': The wizards of the Silver Cities have conducted experiments into the creation of new species by experimenting on human criminals. Some of these received blood transfusions from demons, mutating them into orcs, goblins, centaurs and cyclopses, while others were spliced with the body-parts of mundane animals and became the beast-men races.
118	* ''VideoGame/HonkaiImpact3rd'': the game has various cases of artificial hybrids between human and "Honkai Beasts", which give them extra strength.
119	** In the present time, Theresa Apocalypse is an ArtificialHuman made by splicing the genes of a legendary Valkyrie, Kallen Kaslana, with that of an Emperor-class Honkai Beast, codenamed "Vishnu". This gives her super strength and HealingFactor, as well as natural resistance to the Honkai's influence. Later, the story introduces Olenyeva Twins, who had Honkai Beast cells grafted onto their bodies when they were younger; they have more outward physical traits of Honkai Beasts than Theresa.
120	** In the distant past, there existed "Fusion Warriors", frontline Honkai fighters who are infused with Honkai Beast genomes, greatly empowering them and giving them resistance to the Honkai. The legendary hero, Kevin Kaslana, was one such case; later, the Kaslana bloodline is said to have inherited the potential strength from such hybrid, but only a few have "unlocked" its full potential, such as Siegfried Kaslana.
121	* Samus from the ''Franchise/{{Metroid}}'' series was spliced with Chozo DNA (specified in [[Manga/MetroidManga the manga]] to have been from Grey Voice, one of her adoptive fathers) as a child so that she could better survive on the planet Zebes. During the opening of ''VideoGame/MetroidFusion'', she also gets injected with Metroid DNA to help her fight off an infection from the X Parasites. Exactly what percentage of her is still human is never specified.
122	* ''Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei'' is full of these.
123	** Many humans throughout the franchise have underwent a FusionDance with a demon, from the Chaos Hero of ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiI'' to the Demonoid population of [[spoiler:Infernal Tokyo in]] ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIV''.
124	** The Demi-Fiend, hero of ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIIINocturne'', was an ordinary human transformed into a Fiend by Lucifer, by having a Magatama forcible ingested.
125	* ''VideoGame/StarCraftII'': This is why the Tal'darim willingly serve the BigBad Amon, as they want him to reshape their bodies into the monstrous(ly powerful) Zerg-Protoss hybrids. [[spoiler:Once they learn that this is impossible and all hybrids have to be made from scratch, they defect and join you as the TokenEvilTeammate.]]
126	[[/folder]]
127
128	[[folder:Webcomics]]
129	* In ''Webcomic/ChampionsOfFaraus'', Mr.X uses [[FusionDance spirit melding]], a process used to combine [[OurSpiritsAreDifferent different spirits together]] into more powerful ones, to create his 'experiments'. Said experiments include not only spirits, but objects, animals, and [[spoiler:people]], which Karla notes ''should'' be impossible.
130	* ''Webcomic/IslaAukate'':
131	** The Darnathi use a process called "prototyping" to hybridize their colony missions with the planet's native lifeforms, both to adapt to the microbiome and to blend in. For most Darnathi on Earth that means they went from lizard-like amphibians to HumanAliens, though Sagitar and some of the second fleet used the genomes of Aukate's anthropomorphic animals after landing there.
132	** Rain, Darius' adopted pegasus daughter, went through prototyping to make her bipedal and improve her forehooves' dexterity, making her 10% Darnathi (from Darius) in the process.
133	[[/folder]]
134
135	[[folder:Websites]]
136	* ''Website/SCPFoundation'': [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-1929 SCP-1929 ("Down To Earth")]] is an area affected by a massive dust storm that turns people and animals into dust, occasionally merging them.
137	[[/folder]]
138
139	[[folder:Western Animation]]
140	* ''WesternAnimation/Ben10Omniverse'' has the Rooters, a rogue Black Op Plumber branch consisting of former humans who became half-alien from experimenting on Kevin when he was in the Null Void. [[spoiler:The HalfHumanHybrid aliens Helen, Manny, Alan, and Pierce]] from ''WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce'' are also apparently this, as they were normal humans experimented on by the Rooters and given FakeMemories to make them think they were natural-born hybrids.
141	* Both ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' and his ArchEnemy Vlad Plasmius were born human until they were each in accidents that transformed them into Human/Ghost hybrids.
142	* ''WesternAnimation/InsideJob2021'': Glenn Dolphman initially started out as a human, but turned himself into a human/dolphin hybrid as part of a SuperSoldier project.
143	* ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'': The Avatar was created when Wan, a human, merged with the Spirit of Light and Life Raava during Harmonic Convergence, a period of heightened spiritual activity when Raava is supposed to battle her EvilCounterpart Vaatu. [[spoiler:Ten thousand years later, [[BigBad Unaloq]] repeats the process with Vaatu, turning himself into a Dark Avatar to counter the original.]]
144	* The title characters of ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheTeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'' eventually discover [[MutagenicGoo the Ooze]] didn't randomly mutate them into humanoids. Baron Draxum used it to combine their DNA with the mightiest human warrior he could find ([[spoiler:Lou Jitsu, who later became Master Splinter]]).
145	* In the last season of ''WesternAnimation/{{Trollhunters}}'', [[spoiler:Jim realizes that he cannot win the day in his human form, and reluctantly agrees to undergo a process that will turn him into a human/troll hybrid. At first, he enjoys his newfound strength and durability, but then he suffers a HeroicBreakdown once he realizes that he can't walk in the sun and must effectively abandon his human life forever]].
