Homebrew Tiefsimar Species Details
The product of the unlikely union of the wicked and the divine, tiefsimars are incredibly rare—In fact, most people don’t even know that they exist. Those who have heard of them know that their birth is a sign of change for either great good or great evil, and the tiefsimar themselves often plays a large role in the change that they herald. They are often outcast, and rarely have the opportunity to know both of their parents.
Living Oxymoron
Tiefsimars bear mixtures traits that reflect both of their parentage, sometimes bearing the horns and tail of their devilish heritage, as well as the brightly colored eyes and patterned skin of the celestials. Meanwhile still others will inherit the aasimar’s fair hair and resplendent skin, while displaying the cloven hooves and catlike eyes of a tiefling. Their appearance can be both bewitching and off-putting, and it often draws others to them in fascination.
Unstable Bloodline
Due to their extreme heritage, tiefsimars are prone to live lives that reflect the values of their ancestry, for better or for worse. They have the capability for both incredible kindness and unthinkable cruelty, and in embracing one they often wholly reject the other. They are quick to rise to fame or infamy due to their entrancing appearance and polarizing personalities, and historic events will often pop up around them, whether at their behest or not.
Tiefsimar Names
Tiefsimars will often take on names that reflect the values of the culture they are raised in, whether it’s their tiefling parent’s, their aasimar parent’s, or another culture entirely.
