Homebrew Feylines Species Details

The Fey sorceress Bastelle knew not what she unleashed upon the world when she created the Feyline race. All she wanted was to have her familiars be more useful, completely understandable, right? So she infused her cats with her own Fey essence and gave them abilities that would be useful to her. It was only after they were intelligent and running wild that she realized her mistake in using cats as her familiars and the subjects of her experiment. The resultant Feylines generally didn’t listen to anyone, let alone take orders. They were constantly using their abilities to get into places they shouldn’t were unrepentant thieves, and consistently charmed their way out of any consequences for their mischief. Feylines can be found in areas of Fey-Wild-Forests and live in large cities such as Waterdeep where they can get lost in the crowds and snatch a purse or ten. They range in height from 3 ½ feet to 5 feet tall and are anthropomorphic like any of the humanoid animal races. Feylines can come in many colors or patterns and while they have human-like faces and torsos, their extremities are fur-covered and their toes and fingers are tipped with retractable claws Their feet are also digitigrade and that and their tails make them quick and agile. They have cat-like ears, noses, tongues, and eyes, giving them powerful senses and are carnivorous in nature with sharp fangs. Feylines also possess certain eldritch abilities, such as the ability to use Shadow Step.

Shadow Step

Fey-Wild magic affects many creatures of the forests in the fey-wilds. And Feylines are no exception. They never hit the ground from a fall and will shadow step into their own shadow before hitting the ground and reappear feet planted safely on the ground. This happens automatically when falling from any height above 10ft up to 2 times per long rest. (If your Feyline falls more than twice in a long rest give up one of your nine lives to avoid damage on the third fall, really your Feyline needs more Dexterity and maybe you should rethink your travel path.) And can willfully also use this ability a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier to step into the shadows and reaper someplace else. The number of uses will never be less than +1 per long rest. A long rest will reset your uses even if they have not all been used.
