Look, like ArmouredHedgehog says the "subverted expectations" trope is annoying and overdone. Aishaddai makes it seem like I (and everyone else I have talked to on this forum) is missing some glaringly obvious clues that Zevlor is evil and the Tieflings in general are a thieves' guild in disguise. I just don't buy that. It's much more likely their contact in Baldur's Gate is the thieves' guild and they have a deal with them to be accomodated there as some kind of "nescessary evil" trope. If Zevlor and the Tieflings are all evil then everyone is. And I mean everyone. Not to mention Zevlor throws Alfira, the soul coin lady and a bunch of other named Tiefling NPC's with story arcs to be resolved in Act 2 - 3 under the bus.
Slow down I said there is evidence that hints that they are all a part of the thieves guild. I made no mention of who is evil and who is not. Haslin is 100 percent in line with Silvanus almost down to a T really. Kahga was lawful neutral but slowly turned lawful evil by shadow druids, but you can slap her back to lawful neutral and she turns herself in to Silvanus. The tieflings are a mix between true neutral and chaotic neutral. None of them are chaotic good or especially lawful good. No one in the theives guild will drop everything and tell you straight up what they are. If they did they would be killed.
It makes sense that its a kid who let it slip rather than an adult. If anything the kid will put you in contact with higher members in the city but will get in trouble for it. Of course their is always the chance I'm wrong so grain of salt and all that. Goblins are chaotic evil so everything looks good compared to them.
I think that tiefling bards charm spell scrambled your brain lol. I joke though its fun to debate the future. Now I'm eager for the next update.
Edit: The datamine may prove me wrong after all. Oh well.
