Well a few years ago, I ran a Vargr, the one from the Traveller
Adventure, in fact. Anyway one of the Characters, a female human, and
I were getting very close. The GM unfortunately stopped running the
game so I never will know what would have happened.

Let them, I think that since there are humans that find bestiality
appealing, then I would assume that Vargr could have the same type of
mind set, so what would be wrong with interacial relations. Sexual
relations would be possible, but you would have to think about it.
Are Vargr women the same as their Terran counter parts, are they only
receptive to sex when they are in heat? Or was this changed by
whoever did the genetic engineering on them. Just realize two things,
one, I would think that it would be impossible to have  children,  as
it is now, although you could change that if you want.  Two,  there
would  prejudice from both Humans and Vargrs, the same as there are
with interracial relationships here on Terra at the present time..
