Homebrew Fey-Kin Species Details
An offshoot of Elves along the evolutionary ladder, Fey-kin resemble fairies, yet are full Elf size.
They have insect-like wings up their backs, which allowed them to fly.
Their bodies naturally process gold in the same way that humans and dwarves process iron.
This leads to growths of gold forming on their skin as they age, as well as their wings to have a golden tint to them.
Due to the presence of cyanide in their blood, they are highly vulnerable to fire damage.
Their connection to the natural world makes them ideal druids.
