    Allow me to address each point independently.

    Dimensional shamblers have a Int of 7, yet a +8 racial modifier to knowledge (planes). Thats... all I got on that.

    Edit: Demodand-Spawn Tieflings have a -2 Int, but knowledge (religion)

    Perhaps a race of dimensional wanderers slightly unhinged from reality could have a bonus on climb/jump as they slightly warp space around them unintentionally to suit their needs?
    That isn't a bad idea.. I like it, but I don't think i'll use it. Maybe replacing stealth with acrobatics though? Maybe?


    Also, as much as I really like what I've seen (and I will borrow stuff from it) I don't know that much about Pathfinder, including its cosmology, so let me know if I'm wrong on something.

    Fair enough. I rather like pathfinder, though some things that didn't get brought over are some of my favorite things (the far realm, vestiges, shadow magic as it is in ToM), but that is what home-brew and 3rd party is for.

    As for the SLA, a standard tiefling gets darkness, a 2nd level spell, most of the alternates are 2nd level spells, blink is a 3rd level spell and may be a bit powerful, perhaps give it blur 1/day or entropic shield 3/day?
    It maybe. Even the other heritages are fairly consistently 1st or 2nd level (Sp). Blur, is likely one of the better options, though not an ability held by dimensional shamblers. Less I get a better suggestion, blur it is.


    This does sound really cool though, I especially like the description and the mental image it gives.
    Thank you. I was certainly inspired by atleast the image drawn for the dimensional shambler. Those things are.. something else. I initially made it as a potential alloprax ancestry, and there it does actually remain, but... since they are evil outsiders.. it makes a lot of sense to be something a tiefling would find in their ancestry.
