Homebrew Feydra Species Details

The Feydra have a well earned reputation for their good spirits, sociable personalities, and love of drinking and dancing. The Feydra are driven by simple desires to see the world and to sample its every pleasure. While their spur of the moment personality sometimes put them at odds with more stoic people, Feydra rarely let the moodiness of others hinder their own happiness. Life is a blessing from the gods after all, and the proper response to such a gift as far as most Feydra are concerned is to accept it with great enjoyment.

Born of the Wild

In their physical forms, Feydra embody a fusion of humanoid civilization with the freedom of wild plants. Generally, they look similar to humans, with a range of builds and features, but their flower petaled bodies, pointed ears, and uniquely colored skin sharply distinguish them. Beautifully colored flower petals grow all along the Feydra's body except for their arms. Entangling vines cover their arms from the elbow down, thicker vines cover their elbows and end at their hands. Soft, uniquely colored hair sprouts from their heads like grass.

Embracing Life

Most Feydra believe that the other peoples of Theros are burdened with seriousness. Feydra feel that life is to be lived and experienced with all the senses. They see the world and everything in it as a book of pleasures, and they want to explore every page.

The Art of the Revel

The other races generally think of Feydra's love of drinking and dancing as wild and drunken revelry, where anything and everything might happen. This picture isn’t wrong, but there’s more to a revel than sensual pleasures. For Feydra, drinking and dancing is a way of life. It’s the delight in the small things, the song of a bird, a warm breeze, the smell of a baking pie. Life freely offers these gifts, and for the Feydra they are more valuable than gold. To drink and dance means to let go of the future and past, and to be wholly in the present moment. 

Very Odd Indeed

Feydra are known for their eccentric ways. Some people spend too much time worrying over why Feydra behave as they do, but Feydra themselves simply are as they are, feeling no need to understand what drives them, much less explain it to others. The Feydra Eccentric table suggests a few tastes your Feydra character might possess.
