Homebrew Gelfling Species Details

Geflings are small, elf-like fey creatures. They have round faces, with long pointed ears, small noses and big eyes. Their skin colour often ranges from pale yellow to pale green. The Gelflings have seven different families on the island of Tavrobel. There is one family tasked with protecting the gateway and that is the Sifa family. The Dousan, Drenchen, Grottan, Spriton, Stonewood and Vapra family all live in the Feywild, and rarely venture into the Material Plane. Each family has a matriarch, the Maudra, that acts as the head of the family. The leader of the Geflings is called the Au Maudra, the Mother of All Families. 

The Au Maudra's typically come from the Sifa family, as they are the the most important family. She travels between the Feywild and the Material Plane often to pass along news and information to the other families.
