[QUOTE="KirayaTiDrekan, post: 6373616, member: 6755061"] Tieflings are more than fine. There are many demon and devil worshipping cults in Blackmoor and they've been around long enough that tieflings are, while not common, a known phenomena (their origin being more along the lines of 2E's tieflings, which also means you can vary the appearance as you like). As for the "truth" about gods, there is definitely more to that, which we will be exploring later on (though not in this adventure). The "Truth" (don't read unless your curiosity gets the better of you :angel: )- [sblock]During the ancient war between Atlantis and the dragons, Atlantis sought to even the playing field by enhancing themselves with magic. Their first results spawned demon lords and devil princes, which they locked away in the lower planes. Their second attempt created the first gods - the pantheons ancient civilizations worshipped. The dragons created the crystal prison to seal magic away from Atlantis and waited for the ancient pantheons to die off due to lack of contact with their worshippers. Because of the threat gods posed to their power at the time, the dragons used the Atlantean method of ascension to create a council of Elder Dragons, led by Bahamut and Tiamat, who watched over the humanoid races within the Dragon Empire and ensured that no mortal ever ascended to godhood again.
