Race Overview

Inherent Racial Abilities:

• While you are not wearing Medium or Heavy Armor, You have a flying speed of 30ft, but cannot fly more than 10ft above the ground or solid surface. If you are knocked unconscious while flying, you float mid-air until you regain consciousness or die.
• You always descend at 60ft per round and do not take fall damage.
• You may emit bright light in a 10ft radius and dim light for another 10ft. You may turn this on or off at will, which looks like switching between your two forms. While you are emitting light, you may also choose to take the form of inanimate objects or natural phenomena (such as a chair, rain cloud, or sword) or appear like an older/younger version of yourself, but you are still Tiny size and are still obviously a Sprite.
• Your type is a Fey instead of a Humanoid.
• You do not need food or water to survive.
• Your unarmored AC is 11 + your Dexterity modifier.
• When a friendly creature casts the spell Find Familiar within 5ft of you, they may choose to make a weak connection to you. When they cast a spell with a range of Touch, they may choose to deliver it through the Familiar or through you. You may hold this bond with only one creature at a time.
• You cannot be put to sleep by magic.

Point Balance: 23
Size: Tiny (See tiny rules)
Speed: 20ft
Language: You speak International, International Elvish, and Sylvan.
Age: Sprites do not age normally, as time flows differently in the Feywild and Starry Realms. Most Sprites are thousands of years old, but change very little when outside of the Mortal Realms.
Physical Description: Sprites have two forms. The first, and most basic, is a very faint ball or streak of light. This form is very ephemeral and difficult to see if you’re not looking for it, and allows Sprites to sneak if they need to. The second is a delicate and shimmering Humanoid made of swirling, luminescent colors. Other characteristics depend on what type of sprite you are. A wind sprite, for example, is wispy and light, with a form that seems to dance and shift like a gentle breeze. Their voices sound like the gentle fall of rain, and their skin glows a light blue color.
Social Difficulty: 1. Sprites are seen with wonder and awe by most creatures, due to their rarity and appearance. Among Elves, the difficulty is 0, as Sprites are well-respected within Elven faiths due to their role of retrieving the lost souls of Halaran Elves and placing them in the Feywild to await rebirth.

Tiny Rules

• You have half of the Carrying Capacity and Carry/Push/Lift weight of a Small/Medium-sized creature.
• Items sized for Tiny creatures weigh 1/2 as much.
• You can be automatically grappled by any creature of Medium size or larger and have disadvantage against Small creatures.
• Tiny characters can share a square with a single ally without them crowding one another.
• Weapons sized for Tiny creatures do half as much damage when wielded by a small or larger creature, but do normal damage for you. Attacks made with weapons with the Heavy property suffer disadvantage (Unless it is from the “Weapon Form” perk).
