What is a tiefling virtue name?

A plain word, often an idea or feeling, that a tiefling takes as their name instead of an infernal one: Ember, Vigil, Solace, Spite. It says something about who they are or want to be, which gives you a ready-made piece of backstory.

Do tieflings have last names?

Often they use the family name of the human or elf parents who raised them, and some have none at all. Switch the family name off in the generator if your tiefling goes by one name.

How do tiefling names work?

Tieflings usually carry one of two kinds of name. An infernal name sounds old and a little dangerous: sharp consonants (k, z, x), hissing s sounds and Latin-like endings such as -ius, -akas or -ira. A virtue name is a plain word the tiefling picked to describe who they want to be, or the fate they expect.

Virtue names work best when there is a story behind them. A tiefling called Mercy might be trying to live it down, or live up to it. This generator mixes both kinds; regenerate until one fits your backstory, or pair an infernal birth name with a virtue name your character uses with friends.
