The details of the ritual have been left unclear in the books from the Player's Handbook series describing the events, though it is described as being very horrible. The devils that resided in the Nine Hells gave the ruling classes of Bael Turath visions while they slept, containing the directions for a grisly, month-long ritual that would extend their rule into eternity. Rumors of their schemes and obsession with power reached a realm called the Nine Hells, located around the Astral Sea. In the Empire, the noble class was completely obsessed with preserving and gaining power. In the setting of Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition, the tieflings trace their origins to the ancient human Empire of Bael Turath. Variant tiefling builds appear in the Sword Coast Adventure Guide (2015) and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes (2018). The tiefling appears as a player character race in the Player's Handbook for the 5th edition (2014). Tieflings also have a racial book dedicated to them in this edition, Player's Handbook Races: Tieflings. The tiefling appears as a player character race in the Player's Handbook for the 4th edition (2008), and again in Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms (2010). The tiefling appears as a player character race in the Planar Handbook (2004), and Races of Destiny (2004). The tiefling paragon was introduced in Unearthed Arcana (2004).

The tiefling appears in the revised Monster Manual for this edition (2003) under the planetouched entry. The tiefling is presented as a player character race for the Forgotten Realms setting in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (2001), and the tiefling and fey'ri appear as player character races in Races of FaerГ»n (2003). The fey'ri and tanna'ruk tieflings appeared in Monsters of Faerun (2001). The tiefling appears in the Monster Manual for this edition (2000) under the 'planetouched' entry. The tiefling was introduced in the Planescape Campaign Setting (1994) with more information in the first Planescape Monstrous Compendium Appendix (1994) and The Planewalker's Handbook (1996). One of the first artists to depict the tiefling was Tony DiTerlizzi. The name, pronounced / Л€ t iЛђ f l ЙЄ Е‹/, was derived by Wolfgang Baur from German tief meaning 'deep, low', and the suffix -ling, 'offspring,' alluding to their origins in the 'lower planes' (in the 2nd and 3rd editions) it may also allude to Teufel, German for ' devil.' Publication history

2.1 Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd edition.

In 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons, tieflings are a race whose human ancestors made a bargain with devils to increase their power.

This description remained true in 3rd Edition. In further supplements it was clarified that Tieflings were usually descended from fiends but not the same manner as half-fiends, since a Tiefling's fiendish ancestry lies further up the family tree. In the Planescape setting, where Tieflings were introduced, they were described as being a mixture of human and 'something else' with the implication that the medium-sized non-human ancestors originated from the evil 'lower planes'.

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. The tiefling ( / Л€ t i f l ЙЄ Е‹/ TEE-fling) is a fictional humanoid race in the Dungeons & Dragons ( D&D) fantasy roleplaying game. Fictional humanoid race in Dungeons & Dragons
