From tieflings to aasimars, infernal and celestial beings have made pacts with various humanoids in the mortal realm. Some of these pacts often result in short term unions to consolidate their powers in an earthly form. Eventually the bloodlines become diluted but occasionally a child of destiny is born who is strong enough to endure the energies that have laid dormant all that time. These individuals over time begin to express more of their celestial and infernal heritage as their arcane power develops and strengthens.
Fiendish (Infernal) Bloodline
Infernal Ancestry. Starting at 1st level, you can speak, read, and write Infernal. Additionally, whenever you make a Charisma check when interacting with fiends, your proficiency bonus is doubled if it applies to the check.
Fiendish Charms. Your fiendish heritage makes you alluring and suggestive, especially when infused with your arcane magic. Whenever you cast a 1st-level or higher spell causes a target to roll a saving throw against being charmed or frightened, you can have their next roll be at a disadvantage. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Fiendish Resilience. At 6th level, you gain resistance to fire and poison damage. Damage from magical or silver weapons ignore these resistances. Additionally, your skin hardens and darkens to a deep reddish hue, while not wearing armor, your AC equals 13 + your Dexterity modifier.
Infernal Wings. At 14th level, you gain the ability to sprout a pair of dark bat wings from your back, gaining a flying speed equal to your current speed. You can create these wings as a bonus action on your turn. They last until you dismiss them as a bonus action on your turn. You can’t manifest your wings while wearing armor unless the armor is made to accommodate them, and clothing not made to accommodate your wings might be destroyed when you manifest them.
Hellish Form. At 18th level, you gain immunity to fire and poison damage. Additionally, you gain darkvision up to 60 feet and can see through magical darkness. The powers of Hell course through your veins to empower your fire spells with hellfire instead, whenever you cast a 1st-level or higher spell that deals fire damage, the damage is considered half fire and half necrotic damage instead.
