celestial or other good outsider blood in their ancestry. While not always benevolent, aasimars are more inclined toward acts of kindness rather than evil, and they gravitate toward faiths or organizations associated with celestials. Aasimar heritage can lie dormant for generations, only to appear suddenly in the child of two apparently human parents. Most societies interpret aasimar births as good omens, though it must be acknowledged that some aasimars take advantage of the reputation of their kind, brutally subverting the expectations of others with acts of terrifying cruelty or abject venality. “It's always the one you least suspect” is the axiom these evil aasimars live by, and they often lead double lives as upstanding citizens or false heroes, keeping their corruption well hidden. Thankfully, these few are the exception and not the rule. Aasimars look mostly human except for some minor physical trait that reveals their unusual heritage.Typical aasimar features include hair that shines like metal, jewel-toned eyes, lustrous skin color, or even glowing, golden halos.

Though demonic in appearance, they bear no predisposition towards evil, and the vast majority are born of two human parents. This fact is lost on most other races, and all tieflings face racial prejudice and subjugation of some sort or another. Being on the fringes of society takes its toll, and many tieflings turn to a life of crime purely as an act of survival, inadvertently fulfilling the expectations of their oppressors. Still others fight to change the image society has of them through acts of altruism and virtue. Tieflings are human-sized, with human skin tones, or less commonly, reds, oranges, and purples. The most obvious differentiating feature of a tiefling is a pair of demonic horns sprouting from her forehead, which can twist upwards or curl backwards around her head. Some tieflings also have long, nonprehensile tails, pointed teeth, or solid black or white eyes. The infernal features that present themselves vary widely, but the more human a tiefling looks, the less likely it is to be killed by its parents or the angry mobs that all too often beat down their doors. Tieflings mature and age at the same rate as humans. They are shrewd and suspicious in social situations, and agile and ferocious in a fight. The world has taught them to be cynical, to expect that all friendships end in betrayal or heartbreak. The trust of a tiefling is extremely rare, and even more valuable.
