Editing Tiefling (section)

== Starfinder ==
Starfinder decided to put Tieflings as one of multiple subraces for the Planar Scion race alongside other planetouched races. Curiously, the majority of planar scions were actually human in heritage in the times before the Gap, in which all intelligent and unintelligent life suddenly forgot a massive block of time. After it, the number of non-human scions grew in number to make it more even.

Mechanically, this led to Aasimar and Tieflings (as well as further planetouched) growing off of a specific template. Due to Starfinder being more accommodating to the gonzo alien types that exist in the setting, the fact that they aren't humanoid isn't anywhere near as damning as it would be in PF1e.
