[QUOTE="Satyrn, post: 7333393, member: 6801204"] Well, I'd rule against it - so it would be impossible at my table. For me, it looks like the UA tiefling is an alternate or expanded draft of the SCAG tiefling, and thus is meant to be used in place of it. It doesn't look to me like it was meant to be mixed and matched like you want to. But it's not stupid, and I could totally see some other DM letting it work. As in aside, the slight boost to combat ability that your racial choice will grant you isn't worth much in the long run. I find the flavorful, interesting features that a race grants - the ones that make the race feel like tiefling - provide far more fun for me. So if your DM does wind up ruling like I would, you'll be fine just taking the Zarial tiefling without being feral. I would never have played a gnome if I hadn't chosen it randomly, but playing it I discovered it's my favorite race feature-wise. It just feels so gnomish. [/QUOTE]
