The eladrin are a kind of elf who live in the Feywild. The eladrin are one of the most interesting subraces in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. Players who particularly like rogues, wizards, or sorcerers should particularly like some of these tiefling subraces, as they have handy traits that could be useful at lower levels. Tieflings with a tie to Baalzebul (a devil of corruption) use spells like ray of sickness or crown of madness, while tieflings with a tie to Levistus, a devil eternally trapped in ice, can use spells like ray of frost and armor of Agathys. In addition, the innate spells a tiefling learns automatically also change depending on their subrace. Tieflings connected to Dispater get a +1 to Dexterity, while tieflings with a tie to Fierna get a +1 to Wisdom. However, Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes adds nine tiefling subraces, each of which are tied to a different ruler of a layer of hell.Įach subrace has a different ability score increase - while all tieflings still retain a +2 to their charisma skill, some subraces get a secondary +1 increase to a score besides Intelligence.
Tieflings are one of the core races in Dungeons & Dragons' Fifth Edition - humans whose ancestors once made a deal with a devil from the Nine Hells.
