Homebrew Infernal Kalashtar Species Details
An infernal kalashtar is the offspring of a kalashtar and a tiefling. Infernal Kalashtar are either seen as wise, spiritual people with great compassion for others or suspicious, scheming people who are not to be trusted. Their appearance can be anything from that of a full-blooded tiefling to that of a full-blooded kalashtar, or anything in between.
Some infernal kalashtar are more strongly connected to their quori spirits than others, in which case they tend to display the odd quirks of most kalashtar.
