Homebrew Boggle Species Details
Boggle's are not so much a race of their own as they are the result of Fey influence on children abandoned by their own communites. An abused child, a runaway, or simply an orphan whose parent's have passed. These are the future children of the Feywild.
Whilst most children maintain a semblance of their former appearance, all bear dark blue skin, silver hair and icy blue eyes. Once turned, Boggles do not age, and as such they rarely rise above 4 or so feet, although this is dependent on the race into which they were born.
Blessed or cursed with immortality, Boggles often find themselves in service of more powerful residents of the Fey, working as servants, messengers or assistants. Most are content with this life, as it provides stability and certainty that they otherwise would never have known.
Those that do turn to adventuring often find themslves skirting the bounds of society, as the presence of a Boggle is generally asssociated with the dissapearance of local children. In smaller villages, Boggles are often treated with suspiscion and hostility. Larger towns are much more welcoming to a Boggle, as they are often much more racially diverse and less concerned by the frivolitiy of superstition.

Your dexterity and constitution increase by 1.
Boggle Oil
You can excretes nonflammable oil from your pores. You choose whether the oil is slippery or sticky and can change the oil on its skin from one consistency to another as a bonus action.
Slippery Oil: While coated in slippery oil, you gain advantage on Dexterity (Acrobatics) checks made to escape bonds, squeeze through narrow spaces, and end grapples.
Sticky Oil: While coated in sticky oil, you gain advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks made to grapple and any ability check made to maintain a hold on another creature, a surface, or an object. You can also climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.
Dimensional Rift
As a bonus action, you can create an invisible and immobile rift within an opening or frame you can see within 5 feet of you, provided that the space is no bigger than 10 feet on any side. The dimensional rift bridges the distance between that space and any point within 30 feet of it that you can see or specify by distance and direction (such as “30 feet straight up”). While next to the rift, you can see through it and are considered to be next to the destination as well, and anything you put through the rift (including a portion of your body) emerges at the destination. Only you can use the rift, and it lasts until the end of your next turn.
You can use this ability once per long rest, at level 6 you may do so twice, three times at level 11, and four times at level `16.

You are profiicent with Sleight of Hand checks.

Boggles do not age after their transformation, and are instead stuck at the age they were when they entered the Feywild.
