Ī tiefling's skin may be an unusual color, tinted green, blue or red. Some have few of these traits, while others have several. These unique traits may give a clue to the tiefling's ancestry. Tieflings descended from a variety of extraplanar creatures can vary widely in appearance, from the monstrous to those who pass for human. Most have at least one feature that betrays their heritage: red eyes, small horns, or a missing shadow are common. This is most common among the tieflings of distant planes, whose faint fiendish ancestry is ancient and unknown to them. Some tieflings pass almost completely for human. Fangs or pointed teeth are common among all types of tieflings. Cat eyes and furry skin belie rakshasa heritage, while bruised-looking blue skin is particular to those descended from night hags, who often also have small horns or glowing red eyes. Those descended from demons tend to have similar traits, but without hooves or goatlike legs, which are particular to those of devilish origin. Those descended from devils, if they are not of the blood of Asmodeus, may resemble the infernal tieflings not of Asmodeus (as mentioned above). Their appearance varies considerably, and often reflects that of their fiendish ancestor. These tieflings are descended from various evil beings, including demons, devils, rakshasas, night hags, or the avatars of evil deities. These too are historically called tieflings, although they are rare in Faerûn since the Spellplague, a magical cataclysm which transformed all tieflings there into those of the blood of Asmodeus. Planar tieflingsĪcross the many planes of the multiverse are countless humans who bear a bloodline from the Lower Planes. They may possess more or fewer than five fingers in each hand, goat-like legs, furry or leathery skin, a non-prehensile tail, glowing red eyes, or skin which is hot to the touch. Some cast no shadow, or make no reflection. Unique traits include smaller horns, fangs, a forked tongue, catlike eyes, cloven hooves in place of feet, scaly skin, red or dark blue skin, or a smell of brimstone. There are also tieflings who bear the blood of hellish beings other than Asmodeus, and consequently have a varying physical appearance. Their hair is usually dark and sometimes in unnatural colors like red, blue or purple. They also possess long, thick tails and vampire-like pointed teeth. They possess horns, in a great variety of shapes: some curled like a ram, some spiral like a gazelle, and others ugly flat plates extending sideways from the forehead. Their skin ranges from the normal human tones to a hellish red, and their eyes are featureless orbs of solid black, red, white, silver, or gold. These tieflings resemble humans, but with very obvious infernal heritage. The best known of these are bear the blood of Asmodeus. In many worlds, these are the most numerous type, to the extent that "tiefling" has become synonymous with them. In the current era, the name "tiefling" is most often given to specific peoples whose ancestry is connected to the Nine Hells.
