Homebrew Faun Species Details
Much like many-a-fey creature the Faun is a strange being filled with rowdy energy. The overly positive energy of this humanoid is accompanied by the cloven hooves and horns of a goat, ram, deer, or antelope along with deer-like noses and ears. Very rarely found outside the planar realm of the feywild; The satyr takes pleasure in the leisure of trotting through the magical meadows playing a pleasant tune on their wooden instruments. When not indulging in the pleasures of one's tune, a little trick or bit of entertaining chaos never hurts...
