Homebrew Half-Tiefling-Goliath Species Details

Many races had descended from humans long ago, though few remember their heritage beyond such a thing. The Human is quite a complex system, almost as if a perfect machine... A construct of flesh and bone. Splicing these genes of Humanity with advanced magic can have some strange results. Some say that Goliaths descended from ancient humans that climbed mountains seeking the gods; though, few can claim to have met one, and even fewer to have befriended one. Tieflings are accursed, twisted beings that were once something of a human, as well, their souls twisted by fiendish natures. Rare as it may be, though possible, these human genes may show themselves with unexpected results. For example, an ancient Goliath's body twisting under fiendish magic to turn to something of a monstrosity; or, pray tell, a Goliath choosing to have a birth child with a Tiefling. No matter how it came to be, the existence of them is concrete.
