Homebrew Half-Elf / Tiefling Hybrid Species Details
These hybrids appear as normal Tieflings to the passerby, but closer inspection will show that they have the more rounded ears of a normal Half-Elf and their skin color is almost always a light shade of indigo. As other Tieflings, their hair is usually a shade of black or purple and drapes down their back, but these hybrids are never able to produce blue-red hair. They stand tall like a typical Tiefling, and sport the usual horns and tail, although unlike typical Tieflings they always have faintly red eyes, rather than the pure red/black/gold eyes a Tiefling would usually have. They are welcome any place a Tiefling is welcome (which isn't much) but aren't often welcomed by Elves; Half-Elves see the similarities between them and welcome these hybrids with open arms, understanding what it is like to be an outcast from the society you were brought up in.

Ancestral Confliction
Each night (or during a long rest) you must roll a D20, you must keep track of the results for 3 nights/rests. If the three results are all 6, then you embrace your Tiefling heritage and your alignment permanently changes to Chaotic Evil. If the three results are all 7, then you embrace your Elven heritage and your alignment permanently changes to Chaotic Good. If the three results are anything but these, then restart the process with a new 3 night cycle.
