Campaign Design - Bloodlines: Diabolic-Blooded

Diabolic-Blooded
(adapted from Unearthed Arcana)

For a character with a diabolic bloodline, an erinys is often the source. However, other devils with the ability to use a polymorph effect, such as gelugons or pit fiends, have been known to consort with mortals. Some with diabolic heritage claim descent from one of the Lords of Hell. All šotek claim descent from Ninkurra, so any goblinoids with a diabolic bloodline assert that it is due to her influence. Other Demon Lords who are said to have sired lines include Belial, Darmas, and Ishi.

A character with this bloodline may also possess tiny horns or unusually sharp teeth.
