Homebrew Pictsie (Nac Mac Feegle) Species Details

Pictsies, known to themselves as The Wee Free Men, are a clan of hard-drinking, sheep-stealing, sword-wielding, fey who are as fierce and proud as they are accidentally funny.
They are about 6-inches tall and abnormally strong. Their tattoos are so dense as to give the appearance of blue skin. The hair is red in the sense of "...hair like an orange gone nova"Not particularly handsome, they have a "face like a hatful of knuckles... Every one of them could win a Worst Broken Nose contest."  
Their feet are relatively large and very dirty. 
Despite being fey, they have no wings. Calling a Pictsie a fairy to their face is the surest way to end up in traction.

Unlike the stories of other Fey, the Pictsies are Not Helpful. They never do chores. They don't drink milk. They fight. They drink. And they steal. Sheep and cows are a favorite. One or two Pictsies get beneath each hoof, lift it up, and go scurrying off at speed.

Despite their love of fighting and stealing, Pictsies take their duties and their vows very seriously. They keep their promises, eventually, but can become distracted on the way to their objective. Moreover, they do not condone stealing from those who are poor. In any case, they don't steal children.

Most Pictsies are plain fighters or barbarians, but occasionally they produce a bard which is known as a Gonnagle. Their poetry is bad enough to hurt, and they play a special bagpipe-like instrument called the Mousepipes. To play "the notes of pain" the Gonnagle switches out the pipes to shorter, silvery ones. It is an inaudible frequency to most people, although humans teeth buzz and iron vibrates, but canids have a particular problem with the sound.

A Pictsie can find a way in anywhere, even a dream. A single Pictsie may use the crawstep to travel to an adjacent plane. This effect works like the spell plane shift with the following exceptions:

• it only affects the Pictsie
• the Pictsie can only carry up to 10 lbs. of matter
• it must be to a neighboring plane (from the Material plane, that means Shadowfell, Feywild, Ethereal, or Astral Planes)
• they must have unfettered feet movement ("It's all in the twist of the ankle, ye ken")

They never use the crawstep to take a shortcut through the Material Plane. For that, they assure others, they have "feets". After using your crawstep, you can't use it again until you complete a long rest.
