tiefling
The tiefling, in the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' (''D&D'') fantasy roleplaying game, is a humanoid race. Originally introduced in the ''Planescape'' campaign setting in the second edition of ''Advanced Dungeons & Dragons'', they became one of the primary races available for player characters in the fourth edition of the game.〔Heinsoo, Rob, Andy Collins, and James Wyatt. ''Player's Handbook''. (Wizards of the Coast, 2008)〕
Tieflings were originally introduced as humans with demonic ancestry, whose lineage can be traced back to some degree or another to that of a fiend or demon within the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' universe. A tiefling should not be confused with a half-fiend, as half-fiends are generally half mortal and half fiend or demon, whereas the demonic lineage of a tiefling's ancestry often lies further up the family tree.
In 4th Edition ''Dungeons & Dragons'', Tieflings are a race whose human ancestors made a bargain with devils to increase their power.
==Publication history==
The name "Tiefling" was coined by Wolfgang Baur, when original ''Planescape'' designer David "Zeb" Cook asked for a Germanic-sounding word for humans with fiendish blood. Baur derived the name from ''Teufel,'' or "Devil" in German. One of the first artists to depict the tiefling was Tony DiTerlizzi.
