Fractionated brane bound states carry the entropy of BPS and near-BPS black holes in string theory.  In the best understood examples, this entropy is carried by an effective string of fractionated tension.  This leads to a novel picture of the black hole interior, whose relation to the fuzzball program will be discussed.
