Homebrew Faun Species Details

(In my world, Satyr and Faun are male and female of the same race.  You obviously don't have to follow this standard)

Originating in the Feywild—a realm of pure emotion— satyrs and faun thrive on the energy of merriment. Fauns are to Fey what tieflings are to devils. They are creatures of the wild, the female counterpart to the Satyr males.  They are humanoids with fey blood, which gives them spike horns like a goat, along with deer-like noses and ears, and goat-like legs with cloven hooves. They and the satyr live in small hunter-gatherer tribes in the Feywild, and in deep forests.  The magic of the fey realm has given them an innate ability to perform, to delight, and to resist magical intrusion. While they’re more at home in the Feywild, faun can also be found in the deep forests, where they seek to bring a bit of their home plane’s splendor to other worlds.  They love to dance and play the flute, and are always the life of the party.  As wild as the Satyr men, they are also the heart of nature in the family.
