Homebrew Faerie Species Details

Fairies resemble very small elves, ranging from 2 to 4 feet tall with wings on their backs like the wings of butterflies, moths, or dragonflies. Like elves, they are slender and lithe, and they even have the same pointed ears. With their slight frame and small size, they usually weigh no more than 40 pounds. Fairies have skin colors encompassing a wide range of skin tones including amber, bronze, green, or blue shades. Their hair sometimes passes for human colorations, but can often be bright blue, green, or any other color. Some clans of pixies and scamps have even stranger colorations more befitting a fey.
