[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 5824332"] Not to mention Tiefling was first introduced in Planescape in 1994, and later in the PHB in '96. It was first made a truly "playable race" in 2001, still a full 3 years before WoW even launched. The closest race tieflings could be compared to in WoW is the Draenei, who actually first appeared in Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne expansion. Even then we're only talking about physical appearance, beyond the slightly demonic look, the Draenei and Tieflings have almost nothing in common. Still they didn't become a truly playable race until 2007 with The Burning Crusade, which is over 6 years AFTER tieflings were introduced as playable races in 3.5. Burning Crusade launched in January '07, while 4e with the Tieflings in PHB1 launched in August '07. I kinda doubt that within the 7ish months between the two Wizards went and copied the Draenei.
