Sprite

8 variants

Lurking in the forests and Feywild, Sprites are guardians of good and protectors of nature. Though they are tiny, they use their ability to judge the intents and hearts of others to wisely choose the next course of action. They come in a variety of subraces that are linked by their insectlike size and features.

Enemies of Evil

Though tiny, they keep the peace. They hate evil and seek to destroy or drive away all sources from their forests and territories. If they find that there is no evil to fight they become flighty and can’t seem to stay serious. They do not prank, they do not seek out treasure, but they will still have fun when they are not fighting evil.

Teeny Tiny Fey

All Sprites are about 2 ft tall and look like miniature elves but they have a wide variety of subraces that have their own traits. They all share somewhat insectlike characteristics such as dragonfly or butterfly wings. Other than that they are incredibly varied and united against their struggle against evil.

Firm Judges of Character

Sprites can see into the hearts of others by touch and use their information to carefully choose the best path to keep the peace and eliminate evil. They can use this ability in another way to sort out any evil doers that may be disguised for while they can change their forms they cannot hide the intents of their hearts. Due to this they are seen as solemn and austere by other Fey who take more chances with who they meet. When a Sprite finds a good creature they are quick to ally with them as long as their heart stays true.
