Homebrew Fey'ri Species Details

Because tanar'ri are themselves so diverse, it is difficult to ascribe a single, small set of qualities to all the fey'ri. For example, tanar'ri features reflect their environment; they are made of the material that is prevalent in their home and their features are optimized for survival (claws and sharp teeth might be helpful against enemies who live nearby). The tanar'ri in question most likely would pass down their traits to their fey'ri offspring. It can, however, be said that fey'ri are humanoid in shape, able to shapeshift to conceal their demonic features, able to see in low-light, and in possession of a talent for magic (they may also have a magical characteristic, like a resistance to electrical spells or an ability to drain life). They may also have fangs, forked tongues, prehensile tails, horns, wings, and/or multiple arms. Their elf side contributes agility and an aptitude for bladesong. Fey'ri have a lifespan that goes far beyond that of a human. They may live for four centuries, or even up to a millennium.

Fey'ri Names

The fey'ri who were the product of the noble sun elves and the succubi took elven names. Other fey'ri likely use the naming conventions of the race that is dominant where they live, in order to fit in--unless, of course, they wish to stand out. Then, they may use Abyssal names.
