📋 About This Mod

The Feywild is home to many fantastic peoples, including fairies. Fairies are a wee folk, but not nearly as much so as their pixie and sprite friends. Infused with the magic of the Feywild, most fairies look like small elves with insectile wings.

CHARACTER CREATION:

  • []Two body types are available (gnomes bodies).

    []All vanilla gnome heads are available (if anyone wants to patch in more gnome heads, feel free).

    []There are five different types of wings available in the tail slot. They use the base-game pixie flying animation.

    []All wings except the pixie ones are have customizable colours using horn colours (I suggest getting an extra horn colour mod for more options).

    []There are three optional extra long eyebrows, based on the designs shown in the Monsters of the Multiverse book. Don't worry, they fully animate with the face.

    GAMEPLAY:

    • []Speed - 9m

      []Fairy Magic - Starting at 3rd level, you can cast the Faerie Fire spell with this trait. Starting at 5th level, you can also cast the Enlarge/Reduce spell with this trait. Once you use this trait, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest.

      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 armour.

    FAQ:

    • []"Is this mod compatible with UTAV / KAVT?"

      Not at this time.[]"What hair mods work with this one?"

      Any hair mods that use the shared visuals technique for humanoids rather than individual visuals per race will work, like my Hair Collection and Myky's Hairstyles for example.[]"Is this mod compatible with other race mods?"

      It should be, yes!
