Homebrew Fairy (Aesside) Species Details

The Feywild is home to many fantastic peoples, including fairies. Fairies are a wee folk, but not nearly as much so as their pixie and sprite friends.

Aesside Fairies are one of the three species of fairies existing in the Feywild, along with the Alvae Fairies and the Sylphide Fairies. Aessides are of humanoid shape but are closely related to the vegetal and fungus realms, with parts of their bodies often resembling leaves or wood or even colorful flowers and mushrooms.
