Homebrew Fairy Species Details

The soldier's eyes cracked open, there was a winged halfling sitting before him. They had pointed ears, like an elf, stood barley four-foot tall, like a halfling, and showed compassion like the wounded human was their own child. Over the weeks in recovery, the solider watched these forest-dwellers show enough unbridled love and care to everything that lived and breathed around them to end a war. Deer, rodents and birds lived in harmony inside the loose borders of the woodland village. The animals ate out of the hands of the elderly, the fauns played with the children. Small wooden huts kept warm as many hearts as the people could fit into them. They performed gentle, wondrous magics with the dust that fell off of their wings, that allowed them to flutter through the air like birds and disappear from sight like specters. Their life was safe, prosperous and sheltered from the strife of the soldier's world.
