Tiefling Parentage

While their infernal birth parent may be an oppressor by its very nature, a tiefling can chart their own destiny and moral code.
Devils may take mortal lovers, but the most common way for an infernal parentage to be introduced into a family is by way of infernal pact.
In the broadest sense, tieflings look like their non-infernal birth parent. However, their infernal heritage has left a clear imprint on their appearance. Tieflings have large horns that 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 or slender tails, four to five feet long, which lash or coil around their legs when they get upset or nervous. Their canine teeth are sharply pointed, and their eyes are solid colors—black, red, white, silver, or gold—with no visible sclera or pupil.
Their skin tones cover the full range of coloration, including various shades of red. Their hair, cascading from behind their horns, is usually dark, from black or brown to dark red, blue, or purple.
