Homebrew Feytouched Species Details

Feytouched are derived from elven bloodlines, and in the broadest possible sense, they still look elvish. However, their sylvan heritage has left a clear imprint on their appearance. Feytouched have large antlers that take any of a variety of shapes. They have beautiful teeth that are forever white, and their eyes have spring colors—usually brown, red, orange, or yellow. Their skin tones cover the full range of elven coloration, but also include various shades of orange. Their hair, cascading down from behind their antlers, is usually colorful, from black or brown to dark red, yellow, or orange.

One with Nature

Feytouched have an innate connection to the world around them, with the plants and the animals. Most Feytouched feel more comfortable being around animals than they do around people. Many Feytouched follow druidic guidelines and principles.
