Nevernost
Nevernost (literally "infidelity") is the Umbraen Elvish term for Tieflings. Tieflings are humanoids whose life essence is touched by devils or demons.
They generally have demonic or devilish traits but also retain traits of their humanoid ancestors.
Many cultures across the Deeplands are prejudiced towards tieflings due to their negative experiences with demons and devils.
Within the City State of Styx tieflings aren't especially hated being seen as symbols of the submission of the Princes of Hell to the Spider Goddess Serkatha but prejudice dies hard and the Sumraki-Ashaī still fear what they don't know.
Nevernost can show a diversity of traits inherited from their fiendish or humanoid side most commonly known and seen as horns and tails
