The fey'ri and tanna'ruk tieflings appeared in Monsters of Faerun (2001). The tiefling appears in the Monster Manual for this edition (2000) under the "planetouched" entry. The tiefling was introduced in the Planescape Campaign Setting (1994) with more information in the first Planescape Monstrous Compendium Appendix (1994) and The Planewalker's Handbook (1996). One of the first artists to depict the tiefling was Tony DiTerlizzi. The name, pronounced / ˈ t iː f l ɪ ŋ/, was derived by Wolfgang Baur from German tief meaning "deep, low", and the suffix -ling, "offspring," alluding to their origins in the "lower planes" (in the 2nd and 3rd editions) it may also allude to Teufel, German for " devil." Publication history
This description remained true in 3rd Edition. In further supplements it was clarified that Tieflings were usually descended from fiends but not the same manner as half-fiends, since a Tiefling's fiendish ancestry lies further up the family tree. In the Planescape setting, where Tieflings were introduced, they were described as being a mixture of human and "something else" with the implication that the medium-sized non-human ancestors originated from the evil "lower planes". Originally introduced in the Planescape campaign setting in the second edition of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, they became one of the primary races available for player characters in the fourth edition of the game. The tiefling ( / ˈ t i f l ɪ ŋ/ TEE-fling) is a fictional humanoid race in the Dungeons & Dragons ( D&D) fantasy roleplaying game.
