Homebrew Faeryie Species Details

The faeryies are a race of fey people who live in the Feywild alongside the eladrin as the general populace of the Feywild. Their appearance varies greatly, with some faeryes appearing almost human and others looking like a humanoid plant.

The faeyries are a people of absolute emotion. They can shift between dancing joy and murderous rage in a heartbeat, and they expect this behavior from others as well. In fact, they are quite unnerved by people who are cool and logical and rarely show emotion, and most of them dislike traveling with such people. However, some of them enjoy trying to teach these kinds of people how to be free and happy-go-lucky like themselves.

Due to the mercurial nature of the fearyies, they are just as likely to forget about an offense in an hour as thy are to pursue the offender to the ends of the earth for vengeance. Likewise, any alliance made with a fearyie is susceptible to their mood swings and their evolving view of the person they made the agreement with and of the circumstances of the agreement itself.
