Ability Score Increase. Your Dexterity score increases by 2. Your Charisma score increases by 1.

Ability Score Decrease. Your Strength score decreases by 4.

Age. Twilight fairies mature after 20 years and can live up to 120 years, if they are able to escape the usual fate of their race.

Alignment. Due to their resilience against adversity, communal values, and the playful nature of fairies, most tend towards chaotic neutral or chaotic good.

Size. Dream Fairies are small and are hardly ever taller than a foot. Your size is tiny.

Speed. Your base walking speed is 20 feet. Your fly speed is 30 feet and you can hover though you still fall if knocked prone or are deprived of the ability to move.

Superior Darkvision. You can see in dim light within 120 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.

Fey. Your creature type is fey. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.

Exhaustion. When you are below 5 hit points you cannot fly. You regain the ability to fly when your Hit Points are 5 or higher.

Tiny Hands. You have disadvantage on Strength (Athletics) checks, but you are proficient in the Sleight of Hand skill and on Stealth and Deception checks.

Invisibilty. You can cast the invisibility spell once with this trait, requiring no material components, and you regain the ability to cast it this way when you finish a long rest. Constitution is your spellcasting ability for this spell.

Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common, Sylvan, and Undercommon.

 

Trance. Dream fairies 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.
