Bloodline of Moloch

Moloch, one of the most powerful archdevils of the Nine Hells, who got banished by his master, Asmodeus, would reflect his crazed ambitions and lacklustre rage onto an ethnicity of Tieflings , meant to represent him physically too. The Moloch Tieflings often have dark red skin, a more toned build, and ram-like horns that are often seen in the colour black, yet some are seen in shades of red, white, and even gold. In some lineages and families, Moloch bloodlines would be granted natural tattoos along their bodies, with infernal symbols being the main sight, yet some of these tattoos are often written in other accursed languages, depending on their ancestors. For example, if one Moloch Tiefling would have a genasi as an ancestor, then their writing could be derived from the likes of Primordial, or one any of the other languages derived from primordial, such as Terran, Ignan, Aquan and Auran. 
  Most of those who are born of this heritage wish to hide it, being associated with Moloch often means dejection and banishment from both Material Plane settlements, and ones of the Nine Hells. Often, these people live in small groups of few families, or in a nomadic, isolating sense. However, others embrace their former archdevil's blessing, depicting him as a lordly figure heralded to become the greatest known devil once more. Those who follow in his footsteps, or hoovesteps, depending on Moloch's depictions. Moloch tieflings originated from Aitso, the South Pole in particular having a great amount of them. These tieflings seeked refuge mostly in the Sea of Sands, but some would turn to the likes of Rakdos, the Defiler .  Others may turn to any landmass owned by the Adilla Nation, finding comfort from their relations with Tieflings .
