Homebrew Faustian Tiefling Species Details

Tieflings are either born in the Lower Planes or have fiendish ancestors who originated there, but Faustian Tieflings are exclusively the descendants of Infernal Devils and the Ispersteinian Warlocks who frequently contract with them.. A tiefling (pronounced TEE-fling) is linked by blood to a devil, a demon, or some other Fiend. This connection to the Lower Planes is the tiefling’s fiendish legacy, which comes with the promise of power yet has no effect on the tiefling’s moral outlook.

A tiefling chooses whether to embrace or lament their fiendish legacy.
