Tiefling
Those touched by an infernal ancestor are rare and no two are alike.
All subraces/variants presented in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes and Sword Coast Adventurer's guide are viable options since their abilities and powers are quite random.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Tieflings are derived from human bloodlines, and in the broadest possible sense, they still look human. However, their infernal heritage has left a clear imprint on their
appearance. Tieflings have large horns that take any of a variety of shapes: some have curling horns like a ram, others have straight and tall horns like a gazelle's,
and some spiral upward like an antelope's horns. They have thick tails, four to five feet long, which lash or coil around their legs when they get upset or nervous. Their
canine teeth are sharply pointed, and their eyes are solid colours - black, red, white, silver, or gold - with no visible sclera or pupil. Their skin tones cover the full range of human colouration, but also include various shades of red. Their hair, cascading down from behind their horns, is usually dark, from black or brown to dark red, blue, or purple. Digitigrade legs with hooves or bestial feet are not unheard of, a few tieflings even have wings.
