Otherworldly Bloodline

Tieflings may have human blood in their veins, but the blood of the wisdom celestials has a much greater impact on their appearance. All Tieflings have horns that can take any of a variety of shapes: some have curling horns like a ram, others have straight and tall horns like a gazelle’s, and some spiral upward like an antelopes’ horns. They have thick, partially prehensile tails, four to five feet long tapering to an end with a unique shape indicating their bloodline. Their canine teeth are sharply pointed, and their eyes are solid colors with no iris or pupil. Their skin coloration, while mostly hereditary is wildly varied among different groups.

Mystical Curiosity

Tieflings are naturally curious and pride themselves on their massive stores of knowledge. The interests of each tiefling are many and varied but for the most part they love learning itself and are always keen to gain any knowledge they can get their hands on. This makes them very reliable companions to have and very deadly foes to face under any circumstance, especially during bar trivia night. Though tieflings are naturally gifted with good memories many keep large libraries and can have a tendency to horde scrolls and information in a manner reminiscent of certain kinds of dragons. They may have gotten this thirst for knowledge from their wisdom celestial ancestors, Tieflings are much more aggressive and outgoing in their quest to satisfy their curiosity, often getting into trouble after overstepping social boundaries in the name of their research.

Deep Tradition

As a whole tieflings are very family oriented and their political structure revolves around some of their largest clans. These clans hoard their resources and their knowledge, collecting both passionately to impart to their own future generations. Not every tiefling comes from one of these large clans however and it can be tough for them to get a foothold into the higher strata of society without that firm background. That being said tiefling culture is still largely a meritocracy and it is not impossible for a particularly skilled and ambitious no name to claw their way to the top.

Age

Tieflings mature and age much as humans do, though they do live slightly longer.

Magical Mind

You know the mage hand cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the zone of truth spell once as a ritual with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you reach 5th level, you can cast the mind spike spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
