Tiefling

In 833, during Eladors Conquest, humanity deployed The Mortuus against the Algaian Empire. This ancient weapon of the primordial elementals, meant to turn the tide of battle, instead annihilated the entire battlefield and ripped a hole in the fabric of reality. It fell to every species except humans and elves to seal this breach in the Material Plane, creating what is now known as the Gates of Mortuus. Vaporizing heat still pours from the gates, along with the twisted magic of necromancy.

Before the gates could be sealed, thousands of demonic creatures escaped into the Material Plane. Most were slain, but some found purpose, a home, and love in this much gentler place. Your horns, forked tongue, and sharp tail mark you as a descendant of one such creature. Many view your people as some kind of invading force. As if it weren't the petty wars of material beings that trapped demons here so long ago.
