Demon Genetic Database to Go Live

-Scribella Evergreen d'Sivis

On Aug. 30, Littlehorn plans to launch Bród, an online genealogical database for demons to connect with their biological relatives.

For the last several centuries, demons were led by the infamous Leon Abbot to believe it is unnatural for demons to maintain close familial relationships. Therefore, no Hybrasian can be sure who their relatives are.

"You can imagine the kind of trouble this can cause for such a small population," says Littlehorn. "Before Limbo, we lived in multigenerational homes and made a point of community care."

Rumors have circulated that the Fairy Council will force demons to register their DNA with Bród. Gnommish Gnews has discovered no evidence to validate such claims.

"I'd like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that I'm an independent contractor," says Independent Consultant, Foaly, owner and sole employee of Horse Sense Tech Consulting, and Lead Developer of Bród. "I don't work for the LEP. Ergo, I'm not beholden to the Council, either."

Littlehorn assures us that there is no such requirement, nor will there ever be. In fact, participation in Bród will be completely optional and, for those who do submit DNA samples, include access to crucial personal health information, highly customizable privacy settings, and the ability to rescind their sample at any time.

CORD is a Council-funded division of the LEP. Just over a decade ago, a Council member, Briar Cudgeon, was complicit in the very nearly successful hostile takeover of Haven City in collaboration with the notorious Opal Koboi, our would-be tyrant pixie overlord.

"Given recent history in the Lower Elements, it's perfectly understandable why some people still harbor distrust toward the Council," says Littlehorn, rolling up her sleeve as Argon pulls up a small medical cart. "So, as a gesture of good faith, allow me to be Bród's first genetic contributor."
