D&D 5E (2014) Aasimar & Tiefling offspring

[Coroc]

I would rule that it does not work, like [MENTION=6775477]Shiroiken[/MENTION]

Powergamer to DM: I got a character concept for this half Tiefling half Aasimar who would make the ultimate Sorcerer / Paladin /Warlock MC

DM: Yeah, well, you created some Mongrelfolk, there your charisma score is unfortunately limited to 6 with a racial Maximum of 8

There are a lot of reasons why it wouldn't work or would be one or the other, but by the Rule of Cool I'd want it to be a hybrid.

Tiefmar
Appearance: gray feathered wings, short tiefling-like horns and tail
Ability Score Increase: Charisma +2, Wisdom +1
Age: up to 120
Alignment: often chaotic neutral
Size: medium
Speed: 30'
Flight: 30' (for 10 minutes total, regained on short or long rest)
Darkvision: 60'
Abomination Resistance: resistance to necrotic & fire damage
Abominable Touch: As an action, you can touch a creature and cause it to regain 1 hit point; when you do so it creates a bright harmless flame at the point of contact accompanied by a booming sound and smell of sulfur. Once you use this trait, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
Languages: common, celestial, and infernal

[MENTION=6875235]Elon Tusk[/MENTION] No, no the feathery wings attached to its nose and the horned tail protruding from his navel surely qualify this as a mongrelman.

So it is Charisma -4 Wisdom -2

Doh, I forgot about that.

I'd go with 50% chance of being either race, with DM permission for the option to swap out a racial ability to emphasize a mixed nature.

I like the idea of them being born a Fallen Aasimar. Maybe with horns or some other tiefling trait?

In my setting any child born with a tiefling parent is a tiefling regardless, but aasimar are sterile and cannot reproduce.

Half Giant. Or human. Or choice. Definitely a sorcerer.

For the adventure I've been writing for the last thousand years or so, a Tiefling hero and his Elven wife have a daughter who is basically a half-elf with just a few infernal traits (enough to make her VERY valuable some really bad people). But having read Elon's suggestion, I think I'll consider creating an elf/tiefling hybrid, that's much more interesting!
