Homebrew Brownie Species Details

Brownies are creatures that hail from the Feywild, they are said to come out at night while most people are asleep and perform various chores and farming tasks for an offering of produce or milk. Brownies can described as easily offended and will leave a the village that they took care of forever if they feel they have been insulted or in any way taken advantage of. Due to their nomadic tendencies, brownies are well known in myth and legend all across the material plane, although not many folk have seen one in person. Brownies are petite folk with small, beady eyes and pointed ears. Brownies can have a variety of skin tones, however one thing that is common amongst most brownies is that they are incredibly hairy.
