Fairy in Shattered Lands | World Anvil

Fairy

A wide variety of Fey creatures exist among the worlds of the archipelago. The Fairies are some of the oldest of these Fey and one of the few to live in non-fey communities. Many confuse the term fairy for various flying fey creatures (sprites, pixies, fairies just to name a few), however Fairies are the largest of these beings and closest in temperment and ability as humans.   The most common appearance of fairies is that of a small human with pointed ears and butterfly, moth, or similar insectoid wings. No two fairies are identical though and always have some unique characteristics that set them apart. Below are some examples, but you are free to come up with your own.  

As a fairy, you have the following racial traits.

Fairy Magic

You know the Minor Blessing cantrip.   Starting at 3rd level, you can cast the Fairy's Blessing spell once without spending a spell point with this trait. Starting at 5th level, you can also cast the shooting star spell with this trait. Once you cast Fairy's Blessing or Shooting Star with this trait, you can’t cast that spell with it again until you finish a long rest. You know these spells and can cast them with spell points as normal.   Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells when you cast them with this trait (choose when you select this race).  

Flight

Because of your wings, you have a flying speed equal to your walking speed. You can’t use this flying speed if you’re wearing medium or heavy armor.
