Tieflings were, on average, just as tall as humans, from 5 feet and 6 inches to 6 feet and 2 inches (170 to 190 centimeters) and weighed just a little bit heavier at 140 to 220 pounds (64 to 100 kilograms). In many other ways, tieflings were similar to humans physically. Other, more unusual characteristics included a sulfurous odor, cloven feet, or a general aura of discomfort they left on others. Some tieflings also had eyes that were solid orbs of black, red, white, silver, or gold, while others had eyes more similar to those of humans.
While some looked like normal humans, most retained physical characteristics derived from their ancestor, with the most common such features being horns, prehensile or non-prehensile tails, and pointed teeth. Tieflings tended to have an unsettling air about them, and most people were uncomfortable around them, whether they were aware of the tiefling's unsavory ancestry or not.
