Tieflings
Dark heirs with a mysterious, demonic aura
Tieflings are unique creatures of demonic or devilish origin, recognizable by their distinctive physical features such as horns, a long tail, and often unusually colored skin. Despite their sometimes terrifying appearance, Tieflings are often complex characters with a deep-rooted inner struggle between good and evil. Their past and appearance often make them outcasts, making them both strong survivors and talented persuaders and strategists. In Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), Tieflings are a beloved race for players seeking a challenging role with moral depth and a unique past. Although not specific to Warhammer , similarly demonic characters are present as heirs of dark magic and cursed bloodlines.
