Homebrew Mothfolk Species Details

Mothfolk are fey, and they are shy and reclusive, rarely trusting humans and only venturing out of their small villages deep in the forest for important reasons. These fey are rarely spotted, and may seem dangerous to the few travellers that stray upon them. However, these faeries are kind and gentle, only showing aggression if something comes between them and their folk, or the people they love- when these rare fey decide to show themselves to another one outside of their kind, their love is fierce and kind, and they will stop at nothing to protect them. Mothfolk have close tightknit families, and everyone pitches in to help the younger ones learn the way of life and survival in the forest. They come in a spectrum of colours, from muted browns to spectacular greens, blues and reds. At higher ages and experiences, these fey can even have wings spanning metres, and can become extremely talented in their skills.  They can range from 3ft all the way up to 7. Mothfolk are in the kobold group, as they are seen as sprites, and can be very mischievous, however never stray away from harmless pranks. Alignment is usually good, however some can be neutral
