Tiefling Variant

You don't have the racial trait darkvision.

History: Several millennia ago, some nomadic tieflings got stranded upon a mountain. Any cries for help were lost to the wind, it was a miracle they had even survived the trip. A thick fog grew around where they resided, impossible to navigate and incredibly fatal, and so they evolved to fit this new environment. Only recently has the fog cleared, and few have ventured down the mountain, away from the only life they know to interact with the outside world.

Appearance: These tieflings tend to be light in color with marks a darker shade on their horns, ears, hands, feet, tail, hips, neck and shoulders. Their tails are about 3-5 feet long, with feathers on the end. Their ears are also feathered. Cloud tieflings tend to have very curly to curly hair and straight, smooth, upright horns. These tieflings have digilegs, like satyrs. They tend to have clawed or hooved feet, though normal feet aren’t uncommon. Their eyes are black with a colored iris.
