"Tieflings are creatures of unnatural beauty, but this is a mask that soon slips as soon as it is subject to resistance."
Tieflings have long been a divisive group, not least due to the indecision on their origins. Over the years it has been stated that they come from everything from demonic or devilish routes right up to being aberrations invasive from another plane. But in most circles it is now accepted they are categorically Fiends*
*In Ullthwaygon feinds are not the catigory containg Devils and Demons but instead their own group of creatures.
Tirfilings are not truly their own race, instead, they are a hybridisation that can be found in almost any other.
While it has also been widely speculated whether they have any divine* origin the ties they have to Ammora is undeniable. They are subject to a strange sort of physical glamour. While undisturbed their features are utterly beautiful, but if they are subject to the mental or physical strain they literally lose face; Their features slip into unsightly, monsters and then finally utterly grotesque. Thought this soon rights itself once they are able to regain composure.
*Not all divinities are good.

Devine Target

Unfortunately, your power comes at a price, and you frequently find yourself the target of both sides of the divine spectrum. Celestial beings will attempt to strike you down on sight unless they have very good reason not to. Whereas Infernal being will likely try to capture you and drag you back to hell if they learn of your existence. Fortunately, so long as you have favour with you patron, creator or god, their forces will instead treat you favourably for the most part and will assist in keeping you out of the divine spotlight as much as they can. But be warned that many of the creatures that may target you in this way if you fall into the spotlight may be wildly above what you or your party can deal with directly.

Innate Distrust / Dark Reverance

When dealing with NPC's who know of or can see your heritage; You will have advantage or disadvantage on any Persuasion checks made against them depending on where they like or fear the infernal respectively.
