Tiefling

Mark of the Infernal Clan

A tiefling is first born from humanoid parents when one of them either had a deal with the Infernal Clan and couldn't pay up, or as a curse on their family's heritage.

A Scrutinized Life

Besides Inferna, tieflings have no city or town with their majority. Usually, they amass in slums and ghettos of a city where prejudices against them are less common. A tiefling seeking good intentions would be wise to stay away from the Infernal Clan. Those who believe their livelihood is forfeit to the world, seek out the Infernal Clan's aid.

Life is far from easy for a tiefling. Sometimes, paranoid and superstitious folk are quick to blame tieflings for a disaster. Perhaps the tiefling is a subtle messenger of the Clan, hoping to strike a deal? Maybe when the populace is starving and broken, that is when the Infernal Clan will swoop in to exploit the suffering. Conspiracies will plague tieflings, whether if they're at fault or far from it.
