Homebrew Spardan Tiefling Species Details

"Fate has a dark way of accursing those whom have done no sin, and none know that more than us."

Tiefling people have faced many hardships thoughout history, but Spardan Tieflings are unique in that they are unaware of their demonic heritage until faced with a situation of great distress. Upon this moment, a fiendish guise takes over, and they exhibit typical traits of a Tiefling for the first time. Such events have lead to some calling them the most evil form of devilspawn.

Many Spardan Tieflings endure hardship at a young age, but as they grow older, their behaviour begins to relax, and they grow into somewhat self destructive, devil may care beings. Often throwing caution to the wayside, they opt to live their lives to the fullest, doing what it is they enjoy most. For many, they see "fitting in" as something that just doesn't suit them, and thus strike out in unique ways, usually with a garish personality to boot.
