Homebrew Flame Wisp Species Details
The Flame Wisp is a spark-sized mote of heat energy. It may take the form of anything it chooses, limited to tiny in size. However, the shape it takes is distinguishable as an illusion becuase it lightly glows, and gives off minor heat. The fire spirits like to lead travellers into the woods, often showing themselves as something, or someone, the target is familiar with, such as a lost family member or friend, or an object that might allure the victim towards it's demise. The wisps have the ability to cast minor illusions and weak fire-themed spells.
