Tiefling

The result of a cursed bloodline, Tieflings are found across the globe. They are regularly feared and hated against due to their infernal lineage.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Tieflings can come from any species, so describing their morphology is difficult. There can be tiefling gnomes or elves. It's also possible for a tiefling to appear in leonin and dragonborn families. No matter what species the tiefling is descended from, the traits that signal them as being a tiefling are universal. Below is a list of common tiefling traits.

• Unnatural skin and hair/fur color
• Devil-like tails with speared ends
• A pair of horns protruding from the head, often from the forehead or top of the head
• Elongated and pointed ears

Genetics and Reproduction

Tieflings can appear in any lineage that has traces of fiendish influence in its bloodline. Just because a bloodline contains the chance of a tiefling does not mean that everyone in that lineage will be a tiefling; it's possible for a family to go several generations without ever seeing a tiefling before one is born. Tieflings are not guaranteed to have a tiefling child, either, though the chance is increased.
