Homebrew Feywalkers Species Details

Feywalkers are the compromise between energy and nature. Bright in colors and wisps in form, Feywalkers find themselves to be vanguards of the voiceless. They are energy manifest, at first a burning white. These essences then bind themselves to a fauna or flora from the Feywild. In that binding, a specific cataclysmic reaction happens, creating a soul to inhabit the energy. The energy then becomes a body, taking on a vibrant color.

Walking Rainbows

Feywalkers, once bound, have corporeal bodies that are wisps of vibrant colors. Though they do have a main color, other colors will naturally show up throughout their life. A Feywalker can be a vibrant blue, and as time goes on, they might develop oranges or purples mixed in with their blue. The colors are the expression of the soul when it first unions with the energy in that cataclysmic reaction. Later colors are further expressions of experience the Feywalker has endured. These all manifest in ways unique to the Feywalker.

Vanguards of the Voiceless

Feywalkers are drawn to protect nature and all its inhabitants. They strive for diplomacy and communication. Feywalkers have a natural guarding presence and find themselves drawn to those professions. They don't necessarily follow the rules of determined governments. Feywalkers comply with laws when they are there to protect nature and whatever domain they inhabit. They are fiercely loyal creatures, protecting nature and their home in whatever way they can. They have a predisposition to magic and find themselves drawn to deities who serve nature and its denizens.

Feywalker Names

Feywalker names are divided into two categories: their bound name and their chosen name. Most Feywalkers publicly give out their chosen names, while opting to keep their bound name private. Bound names usually the deepest form of expression a Feywalker has. Their bound name is the first thing they utter when they come into existence, thus giving them purpose. Bound names are hard to understand for most races, aside from Nymphs. That is why Feywalkers have their chosen name. These names are usually simple, usually being that of simple items, ideas, or creatures.

Examples of Feywalker bound names: Eklimysen, Kirelthrys, Juxaanobis, Anufilem. Examples of Feywalker chosen names: Lily, Vine, Hammer, Rock, Anvil, Water, Moon.
