Homebrew Fey'ri (Demon Elf) Species Details

Fey'ri were not a true elven subrace. They were to elves as tieflings were to humans and tanarukks were to orcs. The fey'ri were the result of interbreeding between sun elves and tanar'ri in an attempt to strengthen the sun elf bloodline.

The fey'ri resembled elves "the way tieflings resemble humans". Some fey'ri were not visibly different to elves at all, while others had fangs, forked tongues, horns, or barbed tails in varying combination. Some had multiple sets of arms and one or more sets of wings.

Dark Vision

Thanks to your fiendish blood, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Trance

Elves don’t need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. (The Common word for such meditation is “trance.”) While meditating, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.

Your Dexterity Score increases by 2 and you Intelligence Score increases by 1.

Fey Ancestry

You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.

Age

Descended from elves and immortal beings, Fey'ri have long lifespans of around 1,200 years, living centuries longer than their elven kin when given the opportunity.
