you had a tiefling companion in NWN2 who was neutral (neeshka). Your heritage may imply your alignment (which was oddly left out of this game anyway) but its not set in stone, (the following names are likely mis-spelled, deal with it) there are good & neutral drow in this setting (drizzit, jarlaxle, zaknafien, ...), good kobolds (deekin), evil humans (artemis enteri), and so on. The comments in this thread on tieflings seem off in this setting .... many are evil, but they are only half (or less) demon and sometimes the human side is the dominant one, and sometimes that is a good human side, sometimes not.
As far as that goes I want to see a half-anything setup someday. Dwarf-halfing? Ok! Elf-demon tiefling? Ok!
I would also see some of the other playable races brought in -- there are a bunch that are rarely used.
Food for thought: the 1977ish text game Oubliette has more playable classes and races than 3/4 of the mmo's out there.... granted they did not have to do the graphics (the only thing that really holds up adding more races is drawing them all, the stats and stuff should be a few minor entries in a table somewhere) but there is no excuse for the games with 4 races and 5 classes....

There is an excuse, called saving time and money.
It is FAR easier to "reskin" models of same races than to make an entirely new model that would require new meshes for ALL the armors.
hell, they can't even be bothered to get proper clipping of the tieflings horns and tail.
