Many mortals (mostly human) have often turned to seeking favor (or power) through demons (especially if they feel the gods are not hearing their prayers). This has often led to Demon Pacts where a demon agrees to help, but plants the seed of their essence into the person’s bloodline, so that eventually a Tiefling may be born. The most common cause for Tieflings are mortals who follow the path of the Warlock and their pacts with demon-kind; several demons have been granted access to the world to wreak havoc. As a result, demons frequently take on a human disguise to cause havoc and remain under the radar. At times, these demons have bred with humans, producing half-demons known as Tieflings.
