Homebrew Walfairtrout Species Details
The Feywild is home to many fantastical things, including Walfairtrouts . With the head of a Walrus, the wings and brains of a Fairy, and the body of a Knucklehead Trout, this thing is a monster of nature that should not exist. In addition, according to all known laws of aviation, there is no possible way this thing should be able to fly, yet it does. It has opposable fins to hold stuff or cast spells. Due to a lack of legs, it typically hovers above the ground using its wings; however, if it wishes to walk, it can flop along on the ground towards whatever it wants to.
Infused with the magic of the Feywild, most Walfairtrouts look like Mermaid-Walrus hybrids with wings, but each Walfairtrout has a special physical characteristic that sets the Walfairtrout apart. For your Walfairtrout, roll on the Walfairtrout Characteristics table or choose an option from it. You’re also free to come up with your own characteristic if none of the suggestions below fit your character.

| 6 | Your Bristles glow with incredibly opulence. |
| 7 | You smell like fish. |
| 8 | A noticeable, harmless chill surrounds you. |

Once you cast faerie fire or barkskin with this trait, you can’t cast that spell with it again until you finish a long rest. Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells when you cast them with this trait (choose when you select this race).

Tusks
You can use your tusks to make unarmed strikes. When you hit with them, the strike deals 1d6 + your Strength modifier piercing damage, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.
