Tieflings
To be greeted with stares and whispers, to suffer violence and insult on the street, to see mistrust and fear in every eye: this is the lot of the Tiefting. And to twist the knife, Tiefting's know that this is because a pact struck generations ago infused the essence of Asmodeus-overlord of the Nine-Hells into their bloodline. Their appearance and their nature are not their fault but the result of an ancient sin, for which they and their children and their children's children will always be held accountable.
Tiefting's subsist in small minorities found mostly in human cities or towns, often in the roughest quarters of those places, where they grow up to be swindlers, thieves, or crime lords, Sometimes they live among other minority populations in enclaves where they are treated with more respect.
Lacking a homeland, Tiefting's know that they have to make their own way in the world and that they have to be strong to survive, They are not quick to trust anyone who claims to be a friend. but when a Tiefting's companions demonstrate that they trust him or her, the Tiefting learns to extend the same trust to them, And once a Tiefting gives someone loyalty, the Tiefting is a firm friend or ally for life.
