Tiefling

Shunned by every society, tieflings are the descendants of those who make deals with infernal entities (see Original Tiefling ).

Basic Information

Anatomy

Tieflings are humanoids with notably demonic characteristics. They have horns and tails to match their red skin and solid-colored eyes. Each tiefling has unique horns, whether they be curled like a ram's, short like a goat's, or long and twisted like a gazelle's, but all are ridged. They also tend to have pointed ears, though the length depends on their mortal ancestor's species. Tieflings' facial characteristics often mirror those of their mortal ancestor, meaning that descendants of elves will have narrower features than descendants of humans, but overall are stockier than the average human.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Due to their infernal lineage, tieflings have darkvision and inherently know some magic.
