Tieflings are descended from devils or demons, beings of negative essence. Easy to spot, their brightly-colored skin and horns mark them as outcasts from birth. Many tieflings grow up as orphans as the heritage is said to be a mark of bad luck, leading some to grow up resentful of their parents, while others simply ignore their past. Many tieflings choose, or are forced to choose, an adventuring lifestyle. Like aasimar, their lifespan is longer than humans, but not to the same degree. Tieflings are the most common plane-touched lineage.
