Bloodborn Teifling (5e Subrace)
Bloodborn Tiefling[edit]
Some Tieflings aren't born of devils or demons. Some come from a creature spawned from both, which cannot and shall not be named. While an exceedingly rare abomination to behold, the unnamed horrors that survive long enough to escape their plane of birth will often seek out a biologically female mortal and infect them, making it look for all the world as if they have become pregnant. In reality, the eldritch monstrosity has begun to consume them from the inside out, and once nine months have passed, it will consume her, body and soul, and take on a corporeal form. These tieflings have no knowledge of what they are, or what they were. All they ever know is that the world hates them...often for good reason.
