Homebrew Zygopteran Species Details

Originally from the remote marshlands of the Feywild, Zygopterans are an enigmatic, solitary species. Resembling damselflies in appearance, all Zygopterans share a love for amazing thrills and daredevil stunts, a love emphasized by their rigorous training for flight in their culture. Zygopterans come in many different colors, and are always looking for ways to stand out from others of their species. They, along with many other species of insect Fey, are often confused with thri-kreen, a similar insectile species, but most Zygopterans are quick to point out the differences.
