Homebrew Fairy Moth Species Details
Eager to help
Fairy Moths are loyal beings who’s existence is dedicated to helping others. Living within magical forests and answering to the Elder Moth, they traverse worlds to be with their assigned partners, who they will stay with and help until their task is complete. Fairy Moths are given their first task by the Elder Moth when they are born, and prepare until they reach adulthood to complete their task. Once their task is complete, they typically return home to receive their next task, but there have been cases of Fairy Moths staying with their partners if the Elder Moth deems it necessary. Tasks can range from helping an older humanoid in their later years with house tasks and cooking, to helping keep peace among warring nations or tending to the injured and sickly. Regardless of the tasks, Fairy Moths are always very enthusiastic and eager to help.
Fairy Moth Society
Fairy Moths answer to their leader known as the Elder Moth, a large, graceful mother of all Fairy Moths who oversees the distribution of tasks and training. They live in forest-centered societies, preferring natural cities and towns. While preferring to keep these places hidden, they will never turn away an outsider in need of help, and will often bring them to their homes if they deem someone is in need. There are never conflicts within Fairy Moth society, as they are a generally peaceful and happy people.
Appearance
Fairy moths typically have an elven face, pointed ears and elven-type body, but are always covered in soft fluff around their neck, forearms, and ankles. Their hair is always very soft and ranges from white to deep reds and browns, and also black. Their are many wing patterns among Moth Fairies that come in many shapes, colors and sizes. They can be rather tall or short, depending on which moth they are related to.

Fairy Moth Traits
As a Moth Fairy, you receive the following traits;Ability Score Increase
Two ability scores of your choice increase by 1
Darkvision
You can see in dim light within 60 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.
Partner Bond
You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed when you can see your partner and cannot be made to harm them by any charm. For spells that require a task to be complete, like Suggestion or Mass Suggestion, if the spell commands you to harm your partner, it fails. Otherwise while charmed, if you are commanded to harm your partner, you instead spend your turn doing nothing (depending on the spell).
Powder Cloud
As a reaction, when you are hit with a melee attack you can puff out a cloud of powder from yourself to give the attack disadvantage. You can do this once per long rest.
Ardent Sacrifice
As a Fairy Moth, it is your duty to serve your partner until your task is complete. If your partner should fall before the task is complete, once in your entire lifetime, you may cast a resurrection spell on your partner without needing components. This is a very draining task and draws quite a bit of energy from yourself. If you do this, you will lose your wings and your flying speed, and you will no longer be immortal. This can only be done once throughout your entire life, and can only be done to your partner.
