Homebrew Fae Elf Species Details

A rare child between a fairy and an elf, or the child of an elf who spent their developmental years in the feywild, this mixed race varies in appearance but has features from both of their parent's races. They will occasionally be born with wings, but they're too large to fly using something as thin and delicate as fae wings. All children who've been born or grown up in the feywild will have magical abilities, as it's in their blood.

 

Regardless of the race of their elf parent, they're always colorful, usually being born with a warm skin tone, opal-like eyes and ombre hair. They're small and delicate, almost always having petite builds. They have long, sometimes colorful lashes regardless of gender and long, shiny hair. They vary and height, but are no shorter than 4'5 and no larger than 5'6
