Does anybody know what the stats on a cambion are, or where it can be found?

A cambion is a type of tanar'ri that existed in second edition. In 2e they could potentially have a 24 charisma (max was 25 for all beings), so I am thinking if the 3e version has a similarly huge cha bonus, cambions might make good blackguards.

I believe that Cambion was the 2e version of Half-fiend Humanoid.

Male version. I think the female version was the Alu-fiend.

Indeed, the 3.5 Cambion is just a half-fiend human.

Well, that sucks.

Half-fiend doesn't do a great job of capturing the abilities of cambions and alu-fiends.

A cambion would have to be some kind of awkward fighter/wizard/rogue build, and alu-fiend needs wizard/sorc levels in addition to some kind of template for extra special abilities.
