Homebrew Enoki Fairy Species Details

Physical Description

Infused with the magic of the Feywild, fairies share a few commonalities with one another but can differ widely. Fairies rarely reach over 3 feet tall, and their wings come in many designs and patterns, ranging from butterfly to beetle. They often look like tiny elves, with pointed ears and ranging skin tones. They carry the normal array of human skin tones as well as light shades of the rest of the spectrum of colors, coming from light shades of red to copper and bronze. They can even carry small attributes of the insect family they hail from, including antennae, fluff, and the wing styles. Their eyes often look like a molten liquid but the pupils can be visible if you can ever get a close enough look. They love vibrantly colored clothes or shiny metal armor, something that speaks about their personality on a level that other pixies and some people can understand. Many fairies have a special physical characteristic that sets them apart from other creatures of their kind. For your fairy, roll on the Fey Characteristic table or choose an option from it. The Feywild is a wild place, so come up with your own characteristic if none of these fit your character.

Society

In the world, fairies make their homes in deep forests or hidden grottos beneath the hills of the Moonshae Isles, far beyond the sight of other humanoids. In these places, fairies cast their shimmering lights to color their domains in incandescent hues, gradually shifting from soft red to bright yellow to deep violet and back again. Some say that the realms of the fairies are the places where rainbows begin and end, and those rainbows are fairy roads emanating from the light of the kingdoms they connect, which can be seen by mortals only when the sun shines through the rain. Though fairies prefer to keep out of sight, they can be found almost anywhere in the Feywild. As intrinsically magical as they are whimsical, fairies enhance the world around them with their presence.

Fairy Glow

Each fairy has its own subtle glow that reflects its aura and emotions. Their Glow surrounds their silhouette, but when asleep, they don't glow.

Alignment

Fairies love freedom, variety, and self-expression, so they lean strongly toward the gentler aspects of chaos. They value and protect others’ freedom as well as their own, and they are more often good than not. The bone fairies are an exception; their home in the domains of dread has made them vicious and dangerous. Bone Fairies are more often evil than not.
