Zariel Tiefling (5e Race Variant)

Tiefling Variant

Tieflings born from the bloodline of Zariel, an archduchess of Hell, inherit the strength and ferocity of their infernal progenitor. This variant emphasizes their connection to battle, discipline, and the fiery wrath of their demonic heritage.

Zariel Tieflings often possess tan or dark skin with white markings across their bodies. These markings glow faintly with infernal energy, especially during moments of intense emotion, rage, or spellcasting. They often have fiery red or orange eyes, and their hair can range from white to dark shades, with a wild or untamed look that complements their fierce heritage.

Age: Tieflings mature at the same rate as humans but live a few years longer, typically up to 150 years.

Alignment: Zariel Tieflings tend towards lawful alignments, influenced by their infernal heritage and a desire for strength and power. While many lean towards evil, some choose to remain neutral or even good, balancing their infernal powers with a sense of honor or responsibility.
