Homebrew Ytrian Pixies Species Details
Pixies vary from 6 inches to 1 foot tall depending upon location and tribal tendencies. Their hair covers the full gamut from the common hair types to every other color in the rainbow. This seems to be a function of a Pixie's personality rather than any seemingly genetic cause. A few have even been known to have their hair color change involuntarily as a result of various moods. Their wings also seem to vary depending upon their tribal location and environments. They have been observed to have wings resembling those of a dragon flies as well as butterflies and even, on rarer occasions, bats and pseudo-dragons. The wings tend to reflect the personalities of the pixie wearing them but again, there are always exceptions to this rule and no discernible cause outside of localized and tribal patterns.
