General Description and Biology

Faeries are small creatures who many compare to insects since they
generally have wings and some even have antennae. Their forms are svelte and
thin semi-transparent wings sprout from their backs, that flutter constantly
like a hummingbird's, though their wings may vary too, depending on the
ecosystem they reside in and watch over, as do the many shades of color,
depending on the type of Fae they are. Eye, skin and hair shades that fill
the spectrum can be seen as the Fae tend to be a beautiful race to behold.
The height and weight of the Fae are usually similar throughout the
different subraces. Because of their constant movement and flight for the
winged Faerie, they need to consume high caloric food because their
metabolism is quite high. Like a hummingbird, their heart beats very fast
and their core temperature is normally quite high. If it drops, that is a
sign of ill health.

Basic Personality

The more petite lines of Faerie tend to be reclusive and shy while those
that reach the taller heights are more aggressive. By nature, Faeries are
kind, though not particularly benevolent, and would rarely cause true harm
to another with malice, save to protect their beloved woodlands or families.
Be that said, there will be found those of the Fae blood that are truly a
bit darker, for that is found within all living things. Though they only
tend to be more devious if they fear nature is at risk within the areas they
dwell or their homes are in danger. They live in fear of larger humanoids
and creatures because they are often overlooked and their size makes them
vulnerable. Because of this, they tend to hide when threatened.

Origin and Lore

It is said that the Faerie were born from nature- garden faerie from the
flowers and blossoms, bogs from the swamp, river from the water and so on.
Whether or not this is their origin, it is true that they fight fiercely to
protect their areas. It is said that the Goddess Cherady helped them form
into being as well, separating them into the types to serve their purpose.
The different faerie types are unique from each other and have their own
cultures depending on their environment. They will retreat to their homes
when seeking comfort.

Naming Conventions

The Faerie language is very musical and lyrical and thus their names tend
to be the same.

Preferred Habitat

Depends on their sub-race. Most prefer the environment of their
sub-species. There are several enclaves where the faerie gather; Evereska
and Ahk'Faer.

Society Structure

They can be a bit insular and untrusting of larger races because of their
size and vulnerability. Other than that, they blend into societies. Their
communities tend to lean more into the magical and the natural based on
their environment.
