[QUOTE="RealAlHazred, post: 6455651, member: 25818"] I worked up a Pixie race for my Eberron 5E game. No one ended up playing one, but I think the build is solid without being overpowering. It slightly modifies the Pixie in the MM. [h1]Pixie Traits[/h1] As a pixie, you have the following racial traits. [B][I]Ability Score Modifiers.[/I][/B] Your Dexterity and Charisma scores increase by 2 but your Strength score decreases by 2 (to a minimum of 1). [B][I]Age.[/I][/B] Pixies live as long as the high elves. In the Feywild, the race measures time in centuries, and pixies are effectively immortal unless they are slain. [B][I]Alignment.[/I][/B] Pixies thrive on randomness and excitement. The banal, common, and everyday routine of ordered life that mortal humanoids must endure is anathema to the long-lived pixies. Pixies love chaos, and as a result most pixies are chaotic. Fey reflections of human children, some pixies are good-natured and kind, while others are cruelly mischievous; many change from one extreme to the other as the mood strikes. [B][I]Size.[/I][/B] Barely over a foot tall, pixies are Tiny. You can only use weapons with the Light property, and then only as two-handed weapons. Weapons made especially for pixies (or other Tiny creatures) can be wielded one-handed, but such weapons do only 1 point of damage and have half the range of the larger version (if ranged). Armor must also be made especially for pixies; even specially-made medium or heavy armor precludes flight. [B][I]Speed.[/I][/B] Your base walking speed is 10 feet. You can fly 30 feet per round and can hover. However, you cannot fly when encumbered or wearing medium or heavy armor. [B][I]Fey Ancestry.[/I][/B] You have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects. [B][I]Pixie Dust.[/I][/B] You know the [I]druidcraft[/I] and [I]dancing lights[/I] cantrips. Once you reach 3rd level, you can cast the [I]sleep[/I] spell once per day as a 1st-level spell. Once you reach 5th level, you can cast the [I]fly[/I] spell once per day as a 3rd-level spell. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells. [B][I]Natural Sneak.[/I][/B] You gain proficiency in the Perception and Stealth skills. [B][I]Superior Invisibility.[/I][/B] As an action, you magically turns invisible until you attack or cast a spell, or until your concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). Any equipment you wear or carry is invisible with you. Once you have used this ability, you must complete a short or long rest before you can use it again. [B][I]Languages.[/I][/B] You can speak, read, and write Common and Sylvan. Sylvan is the language of fey creatures, such as satyrs, dryads, and treants. It is very alien-sounding to mortals, and has words for many concepts that can’t be understood by mundane creatures.
