Tiefling Overview[1] [2] [3]

Unofficial Summary: Tieflings are the humanoid spawn of a fiend and a humanoid or the spawn of a humanoid who's ancestors made a pact with a fiend. Tieflings tend to either embrace their fiendish heritage (seeking corruption of society) or reject their heritage (seeking to good in all things).

 3.5e lore  [SRD3 OGL] [4] 
Many tieflings are indistinguishable from humans. Others have small horns, pointed teeth, red eyes, a whiff of brimstone about them, or even cloven feet. No two tieflings are the same.
