Homebrew Fuzzy Buzzy Species Details

Roughly the size of a kitten when fully grown, the fuzzy buzzy resembles a cat with a large wide tail ending with a bee stinger. It has soft fur, coloured in vibrant yellow, white and black. The back paws are more feline, whilst the smaller front paws are more insectine. The fuzzy buzzy does not have ears, rather horn-like antennae. The fuzzy buzzy's wings are like that of a pixies.

Summer Court Servants. Fuzzy Buzzys serve the Seelie fey, performing similar tasks to bees in the pollination of feywild flora. Seen as a similar rank to sprites and pixies, fuzzy buzzys are highly sought after as familiars due to their cute appearance, important work and delightful honey.

A spellcaster with a fuzzy buzzy familiar must allow the fuzzy buzzy to fulfil its pollination duties, but is rewarded with copious amounts of honey. Artisans have been known to create fabulous honeycomb or mead from the honey of a fuzzy buzzy.
