Homebrew Daemon Species Details

A Daemon is an incredibly rare race from whence a child is born with the parents of a demon and a human or elf. During the birth of the child a special kind of magic must occur to create the Daemon that almost always kills the mother giving birth. Daemons have a shade of red skin, horns that vary in color (from grey to black) and size, shades between orange and yellow eyes, black hair. The Daemon is not tainted by the evil of it's Demon parent and has it's own free will in allegiance. However, some (but not all) Daemons find it hard to trust Tieflings because of the Tieflings' devilish heritage. The same could be said about some (but again not all) Tieflings' feelings towards a Daemon's demonic heritage.
