04-20-07, 01:51 AM I am looking to play a tiefling and I want to know if there is more information about them in any book apart from the entry in MM and Races of Destiny. I am mostly looking for flavor information, not mechanical stuff, but any wii do.
The one thing I am most interested in is: are tieflings mortal?(do they age) and if so just how long would a tiefling's lifespan be.

04-20-07, 02:02 AM There are 3 pages about tieflings in Races of Faerūn. The History and Tiefling Deities parts are very Forgotten Realms-specific, but everything else can easily be used in any other setting.

As for their lifespan, it's listed in Races of Destiny, along with height, weight, and age of every other race from that book. A tiefling's natural lifespan is 90+3d20 years, 30 years more than a human on average.

Thank you for the info. I had actually missed that table in Races of Destiny.
