Pixie#
Of course I'm small. Lythantos had a lot of you to make and wanted to get one of us right.
Pixies are tiny, all women, and as old a people as the elves. Lythantos made them in the Age of Peace alongside the sprites, and a pixie's children are pixies or sprites, nothing else.
How they live#
Pixies keep to themselves and the sprites, and no race starts wiser.
Natural armor 5 is the lowest any race has. A pixie’s first coin should go on armor.
- Temper
- Slow to anger. In hard times they turn on other races first.
- Leaving
- When a city turns bad they leave all together, the whole community at once.
- Money
- Save little.
- Crowds
- Feel crowded long before anyone else does.
- Tongue
- Sylvan, spoken from birth and known perfectly, besides common.
- Drawn to
- Sprites, as much as to their own kind.
What others say#
Never insult a pixie. She'll forgive you, and then for a year everything you own will be slightly wrong.
They're the only ones older than us who still laugh.
Where they live#

Playing a pixie#
Any race can take any class. These are the ones pixies start closest to, with the race’s starting score in each of the class’s two stats.
Monk
Wisdom and dexterity, a monk's two stats, both start at 12.
Runescribe
Wisdom 12 leads and charisma 11 backs it.
Priest
Charisma and intelligence both start at 11, and pixies have served Lythantos since he made them.
Slightly wrong
Every lock in a merchant’s house opens backwards and his bread won’t rise. He swears he never insulted a pixie, and he’s lying about something.
Names#
Light, two syllables, always ending on a vowel. Mimi On’thill, Rohna So’lahar, Lilia Ve’lume.
