Homebrew Earth Genasi/Tiefling Species Details

Result of a Genie and a Tiefling or a Genasi and a Tiefling

Heirs to Elemental Power and Infernal Bloodline

Genasi/Tieflings inherit something from both sides of their dual nature. They resemble humans but have unusual skin color (red, green, blue, or gray), and there is something odd about them. The elemental blood flowing through their veins manifests differently in each genasi, often as magical power. However, their infernal heritage has left a clear imprint on their appearance.They have large horns that take any of a variety of shapes: some have curling horns like a ram, others have straight and tall horns like a gazelle’s, and some spiral upward like an antelopes’ horns.

They have thick tails, four to five feet long, which lash or coil around their legs when they get upset or nervous. Their canine teeth are sharply pointed, and their eyes are solid colors—black, red, white, silver, or gold—with no visible sclera or pupil.

Since they are half Tiefling they cannot always be seen as silhouttes, Genasi/Tiefling can only pass for humans for short periods of time. Those of earth or water descent tend to be heavier, while those of air or fire tend to be lighter. Genasi almost never have contact with their elemental parents. Genies seldom have interest in their mortal offspring, seeing them as accidents. Many feel nothing for their genasi children at all. Since tieflinga also tend to live alone or among other outcasts. They lack a homelanf completely. This makes the few Tiefling/Genasi more likely to turn to crime, live alone, of onlu live among a small group of other outcasts.

Unlike regular Genasi, Genasi/Tieflings do not leave the Material Plane to live in the household of their Genie parents.

Wild and Confident, Self-Reliant and Suspicious

Genasi rarely lack confidence, seeing themselves as equal to almost any challenge in their path. This certainty might manifest as graceful self-assurance in one genasi and as arrogance in another. Such self- confidence can sometimes blind genasi to risk, and their great plans often get them and others into trouble.

Too much failure can chip away at even a genasi’s sense of self, so they constantly push themselves to improve, honing their talents and perfecting their craft.

Lacking a homeland, tieflings know that they have to make their own way in the world and that they have to be strong to survive. They are not quick to trust anyone who claims to be a friend, but when a tiefling’s companions demonstrate that they trust him or her, the tiefling learns to extend the same trust to them. And once a tiefling gives someone loyalty, the tiefling is a firm friend or ally for life.

Genasi Lands

As rare beings, genasi might go their entire lives without encountering another one of their kind. There are no great genasi cities or empires. Genasi seldom have communities of their own and typically adopt the cultures and societies into which they are born. The more strange their appearance, the harder time they have. Many genasi lose themselves in teeming cities, where their distinctiveness hardly raises an eyebrow in places accustomed to a variety of different people.
