Homebrew Wolpertinger Harengon Species Details

Harengons originated in the Feywild, where they spoke Sylvan and embodied the spirit of freedom and travel. In time, these rabbitfolk hopped into other worlds, bringing the fey realm's exuberance with them and learning new languages as they went.

Harengons are bipedal, with the characteristic long feet of the rabbits they resemble and fur in a variety of colors. They share the keen senses and powerful legs of leporine creatures and are full of energy, like a wound-up spring. Harengons are blessed with a little fey luck, and they often find themselves a few fortunate feet away from dangers during adventures.

The wolpertinger are a subrace of harengon with small, feathery wings. Some even sprout antlers or grow large fangs⁠—or both! They are cunning and quick on their feet, though their whimsical nature can sometimes make them seem less threatening than they truly are.  

Wolpertinger society is secretive, though they rarely habitate in large groups. While one wolpertinger is happy enough to live alongside another, they have a habit of building their cozy burrows in quiet, remote locations. Still, a few wolpertinger villages exist here and there, hidden away in the hills and forests of the world. Wolpertinger are generally friendly towards strangers who do not threaten them, eager to play music and dance and talk for hours. Do not mistake to rouse the wrath of a wolpertinger; they can be terribly mischievous at best, and downright dangerous at their worst.

Wolpertinger Harengon Traits

Wolperwinger

While falling, you can spread your wings and float downward at a rate of 60 feet per round. You gain a fly speed of 60 feet and can control your movement during the fall, but you cannot gain altitude unassisted. Upon landing, you daintily touch down without taking falling damage.

Wolper Leap

As a bonus action, you can vertically leap a number of feet equal to five times your proficiency bonus, without provoking opportunity attacks. You may then glide an equal number of feet in any direction, landing on your feet. You can use this trait only if your speed is greater than 0 and you have appropriate vertical clearance. You can use it a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
