Homebrew Goblinoid Tiefling Species Details
A goblin with an infernal bloodline is a rare sight in most lands. These goblinoids mostly resemble their goblin relations, but with distinctive infernal features such as horns, hooves, thick tails, variations in skin and eye color, and some times small under-developed wings that may allow them to glide a short distance. Usually a bit taller than most goblins, goblinoid tieflings stand anywhere between 3 and 5 feet tall and between 40 and 100 pounds (their size is still small). Their infernal blood gives these goblins a slightly extended lifespan allowing them to live about 70 years, but occasionally as many as 100 years.
