Many (or possibly all) of the tropes listed in this page's trope list need context. A list of tropes is not a description. See ATT:ZCE for advice on how to fix this. |
Impure Blood is a fantasy webcomic featuring Roan, an enslaved gladiator called The Abomination, who is not entirely human and is given a chance to escape by joining a quest.
