Homebrew Fairies Species Details

While typically small by nature, fairies may temporarily alter their appearance for up to, typically, 3 hours at most. Though, with enough training, you can maintain a larger size for almost 10 hours. When at full height, a fairy could almost be mistaken for a human if not for their pointed ears and butterfly-shaped wings. Your wing pattern is determined by the nature association your fairy has, and they can be disguised if necessary by pressing firmly against your skin. Faries, like most fey are often supernaturally beautiful, which they use to their advantage to charm the weak-minded. Walking and flying speed depends on the current size of the fairy. Typically chaotic alignment.

Nature Association. Every fairy is born with a bond to a specific part of nature. This can range from animal types, to plant types, fungi, elements, weather, even diseases/illnesses. 

Aging. Faries can live to around 300 years. They are considered adolescents at 30 and adults at 50 years. 

Speed. As a tiny creature, you are an incredibly fast flyer but cannot walk long distances quickly. If you are of small height, you can walk up to 15 feet in a turn and fly only 35 feet. At a Medium height, you can walk up to 30 feet in a turn but only fly 20 feet.
