Basically, a player wants to create some new powers for his race (tiefling) and take them in place of his usual class-based powers. So long as they're balanced against the other powers of the same level, I can't think of a reason why not. What do you think?

Each race gets two bonusses, so at least you can run the powers of those, but that's still 2 abilities the character might not have... They'd become awfully tuned to that specific character; you might as well add the powers to his class, or refluff his class powers to run off his race, I think.
