Base Class: Sorcerer
Demons and devils are some of the greatest forces in the multiverse, one born evil order and lead by malicious tactician, the other born of hatred and chaos commanded by madness. Fiends exist and many planes, most predominately the nine hells or the abyss, though fiend such as yugoloths exist on any plane, some fiends from the hells or abyss even venuture to the material plane in service of their demonlord or archdevil.
Fiendish Spells
Starting at 1st level, your half fiend nature causes your spells to ignite foes in hellish blazes. You learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown on the Fiendish Spells table. The spell counts as a sorcerer spell for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of sorcerer spells you know. These spells can’t be replaced when you gain a level in this class.

This fiend retains all it's other features from its stat block.

Posted May 5, 2022No, because most other fiend-flavored stuff gives you poison resistance, so I decided not to double up on it. But you could always gain it with the temporary resistance granted by the feature.
