Naming a tiefling rogue
A tiefling rogue carries tiefling naming tradition into the rogue's calling. Tiefling naming runs two ways: an infernal birth-name with a hiss and an edge, or a self-chosen 'virtue name' — a word like Hope, Sorrow, or Reverence that declares who they intend to be. Both are equally valid. A rogue — a quick-fingered survivor of the urban underworld — tends toward slick names or aliases — the real one is rarely the one they answer to. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
