D&D 4th edition Tieflings are now descendents of humans from the kingdom of Bael Turath, whose noble houses made bargains with infernal powers to empower their bloodline. They have a distinctive devil-like appearance, almost always depicted with dark pink skin, large horns, and a prehensile tail.

Can Tieflings be crossbreed?
4 Tiefling Variants Include Minotaurs Fey’ri are Tiefling/Elf crossbreeds that can have many signs of fiendish ancestry or none at all. Those with signs can have pointed tails, fangs, wings, or more. There are more including minotaurs and demon trolls, but that’s another article.

Are there any tieflings other than humans in D & D?
In D&D lore, there are indeed tieflings of races other than human. The stats in the Player’s Handbook represent human-tieflings, but this does not preclude the possibility that there are others. Ultimately, the tiefling’s human-centered nature is a leftover from AD&D 2nd edition, which was considerably more human-centric than later versions of D&D.
Is there such a thing as a tiefling offspring?
It’s always a tiefling offspring. Their appearance and their nature are not their fault but the result of an ancient sin, for which they and their children and their children’s children will always be held accountable. Based on that, I would say a tiefling/human pairing would result in a tiefling.
