First marginalized in politics, they soon found themselves under attack. They became war chiefs, mercenaries, and warlocks, distancing themselvs from the deadly politics of the old court. They reached the edges of civilization, and then the edges of the world. They forayed into the Feywild to forge new alliances.Their descendents, masters of the blade and warlock powers, are more than passing familiar with the terrors and beauty of the Feywild. Idea 2: an ancient schismOnce a proud house, these tieflings picked the wrong heir in an ancient dynastic struggle of the tieflings. First marginalized in politics, they soon found themselves under attack. Rarely party to the infernal pacts themselves, they were linked by blood to the other tiefling lords but themselves preferred fey pacts and wizardry.  Over time, those who followed the infernal ways came to dominate society. While their blood is often disdained as "thin" and human by their rivals, in truth they are related to the ancient kings.</blockquote>
