📋 About This Mod
This mod is inspired by and based on Smaller Races by MaskedRPGFan - their mod affects Drow, Elves, Half-Elves and Tieflings - go check it out.
Smaller Fairies
Now all your beautiful fairies can look teeny-tiny while keeping bodytype 1 or 2 proportions (and having access to outfits exclusive to those two!) It also helps in case shorter bodytypes just aren't short enough for you.This mod visually shrinks fairies down to a fraction of the size by adding a hidden passive.
It does not affect your alleged size - you're still Medium on the paper.
Does not affect the way fairies appear in CC and dialogues either, so all animations are correct. But it also means BT1 and BT2 fairies will look down on shorter races even if they're technically the same height as them (just pretend they fly or something).
For actual size (and weight) change download Lighter Fairies from misc files. Thanks to Palderon for suggesting it.
Racial Features
-
[]Fey Ancestry (I mean... they ARE fey, so it doesn't get more affinitive than that)
[
]Infused with Magic, which gives them advantage on Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma saving throws (because that's what Fey Semblance Amulet does) - also Gnome Cunning does that, so I guess that's fairly balanced. - Darkvision is an option you'll find in misc files. This one requires Compatibility Framework. It will work independently, you can install it along with any other file, or install Darkvision only, if you like.
Install through BG3MM, make sure to load it after Flutter and Whimsy.

Smaller Fairies is a compact race mod for Skyrim that shrinks the fairies from the Flutter and Whimsy mod and grants them a couple of racial passives. With 137 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche addition for players who want a more subtle fairy presence.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Niche but appreciated—137 endorsements show a dedicated following.
- Recent update (Dec 2024) means it's likely compatible with current Skyrim versions.
- Simple concept: if you want smaller fairies, this does exactly that.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the Flutter and Whimsy mod, so it's not standalone.
- Only two features—don't expect a major overhaul.
For Skyrim players who use the Flutter and Whimsy mod and find the fairies too big or intrusive. If you want a more subtle fairy companion or NPC, this is for you. Skip if you don't use Flutter and Whimsy or want more than a size tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Flutter and Whimsy is installed first, then drop Smaller Fairies into your mod manager.
- Load order matters—place Smaller Fairies after Flutter and Whimsy to ensure the changes apply.
- Check the mod's posts for any patches if you use other fairy-related mods.
