Homebrew Mothfolk Species Details
These humanoid moths are characterized mainly by the presence of a second smaller pair of arms, a layer of thin fur covering most of their body, a pair of moth wings and two antennas protruding from their forehead. It is said that this moth-folk was the product of the fantasy of a moony Archfey, who created them to populate the nights of the material plane, and dress them with silk-like ribbons that gleam under the light of the moon, but this is a myth created by these nervous creatures to protect themselves.
