Teifling Traits Random Charts


Rules Questions

Dark Archive

I've seen several of these on the web and on these message boards. But What I'm wondering is if there is an official chart for Random Tiefling Traits in any Paizo Product.


Indeed. Adventure Path #25, The Bastards of Erebus.


The first volume of the "Council of Thieves" adventure Path, "Bastards of Erebus" has a rather extensive chart. There also might be something in the upcoming "Advanced Race Guide."

Thank you so very very much!

Here's another question about those charts: if a DM lets a player make a tiefling character, and uses the random chart, what should the policy be on re-rolls? We allow some leniency in rolling stats when we say "4d6 drop the lowest" but your racial modifers are down to a single roll? If someone rolled poorly, would they be allowed to change their mind about which race to play?


When i used it I rolled twice and let the player choose which one they got. You could also simply let them pick but retain the right to change it if their pick is clearly headed for cheese.

I'd let them roll, but if they don't like the result, let them go back to the default tiefling ability.

If they want a better choice, the feat Fiendish Heritage is available, which lets them roll three times and pick which ability they want.

I'm with Ben on this.

Though I do think it would be fun to roll up 6 of them and have the players pick out a full party of tiefling weirdness from the lot.

That would be awesome! Someone should run that at Paizo Con :D

I'm running both of mine too...and I kinda wanted to squeeze in a game of Mouse Guard at some point.

Maybe I can con Ashton into doing it?
