Homebrew Fae Princess (Frostbloom) Species Details

 

Born of two opposing courts, Half-Summer, Half-Winter Fey live in constant tension between passion and restraint. They feel emotions more deeply than mortals and embody both sides of the fey temperament: the warmth and generosity of Summer and the elegance and detachment of Winter. Some struggle for inner balance, while others embrace their duality as strength — wielding both radiant charm and chilling precision.

They are often wanderers, seldom fully accepted by either court. To the Summer Fey, they are reminders of betrayal; to the Winter Fey, they are living instability. Among mortals, they may be mistaken for elves or genasi, though their magic and moods reveal their true fey origin.

Each Frostbloom Fey bears within them the power of both seasons — two halves of a single soul. This manifests in their magic, emotions, and even physical environment. When calm and content, they may radiate warmth and light; when angered or afraid, the air may drop in temperature and frost creep along nearby surfaces.

As a Fae Fairy, you have these special traits.

Darkvision

You have Darkvision with a range of 60 feet.

Fae Lineage

You are part of a lineage that grants you supernatural abilities. Choose a lineage from the Winter Lineages table. You gain the level 1 benefit of that lineage.

When you reach character levels 3 and 5, you learn a higher-level spell, as shown on the table. You always have that spell prepared. You can cast it once without a spell slot, and you regain the ability to cast it in that way when you finish a Long Rest. You can also cast the spell using any spell slots you have of the appropriate level.

Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for the spells you cast with this trait (choose the ability when you select the lineage).
