Bring a touch of infernal sophistication to your next campaign with this Tiefling Investigator. Dressed in a sharp Victorian-style coat and clutching a mysterious vial for analysis, he is the perfect blend of high-society elegance and street-smart sleuthing.
A tiefling investigator stands over a clue, holding a chemical sample in one hand while keeping his rapier ready for trouble.
Best used as a player character, a high-ranking NPC informant, or a specialized rival detective encountered during a mystery-heavy arc.
