Description:Pixies are humanoids who stand rarely shorter than 15 inches and rarely taller than 20 inches. 18 is the average. They posess a double set of wings, more like a dragonfly's than a butterflys, though their form does vary to a degree. These wings sprout from the upper back of the pixie, in the shoulderblade region, and typically span three quarters of the pixie's own height as they stick out to the sides. At the most, a pixie's longest wing will be half of his height. The wings are generally iridescent in hue, often rainbow though just as likely single-hued. They are translucent, much like a dragonfly's wings, and are composed of a very thin, but very tough, skin stretched over a lightweight chitin-like framework. Being of elven stock, pixies have delicately arched eyebrows and pointed ears, and often have slender, chisled faces. They tend towards the slender, though exceptions occur. Pixies' skin colour tends towards the pale, and is rarely if ever dark. Their hair and eyes span the normal range of elven colours, though specific bloodlines (and largely tribes - Winterthaw, Hazeldrift, Sunglory, etc.) tend to produce similar colour combinations (for example, 4 out of 5 Sunglory pixies have golden blonde hair). In all other aspects, they are miniature versions of elves.
Attitudes on:
Humans:
(Yuannor)
"What's to say? We may be 'flitty' as they call us, but at least we're constant. These creatures can't seem to make up their minds about being mean or nice. It's not that hard!"
Elves:
(Ale'un)
"Lovely creatures! They've always helped to protect our forests and they're incredibly clever. I'd say they're the among the wisest of the races, which is lucky since they live such a long time."
Dwarves:
(Eowujar)
"I've never dealt much with the Eowujar. They tend to spend most of their time either underground or in the taverns, while we spend most of ours in the trees. They seem fun enough while they are drinking, but they're more interested in money than making friends."
Ogres:
(Gwirath)
"Their lack of intelligence and love of battle make them a little dangerous. It's awfully easy for the wiser races to trick a Gwirath into doing their bidding. Of course, their slowness also makes them an easy mark for pixie pranks!"
Drakyn:
(L'zyarn)
"They share the skies with us, but they don't seem to get much joy from life. Most of them are sooo serious and some of them are downright MEAN! I never go to their hometown because I have heard stories about L'zyarn who sell my kind as 'tasty treats'. It's too horrible to think about!"
Minotaurs:
(Makkar)
"OOoooh...horrible tempers! It's sometimes fun to irritate them and they make it so easy; they get angry about EVERYTHING! I wouldn't ever want to turn my back on one though."
Nixies:
(N'allarri)
"Our underwater brothers and sisters? Of course I love them! They are fast, smart, and tons of fun...what's not to love?!"
Prrmyr:
(Prrymr)
"Ahh, the feline species. They're so interesting, aren't they? Beautiful to look at, smart, agile, and really good at magic! I've also rarely met a Prrmyr who wasn't willing to take a little time out to play."
Half-Elves:
(S'Ale'un)
"They're ok I guess. The Yuannor in them sometimes ruins their their Ale'un side, but most of them are decent enough."
Half-Orcs:
(S'Uloitha)
"I feel badly for them sometimes. They certainly lack the physical of the other races. I've heard they're good fighters, but they don't seem to really belong anywhere, do they?"
Trokhon:
(Trokhon)
"Strange race. They don't seem to really care much for strangers and they get REALLY mad if you pat them on the head or yell Here boy!' Not a great sense of humor, but they seem decent enough."
Orcs:
(Uloitha)
"Scary! Their faces are enough to give you nightmares, but when you add in their stinkiness, no one stands a chance! They're another of the races that seems to like fighting more than just about anything else. Of course maybe when you look like they do, you HAVE to fight."
Halflings:
(Vandar)
"I like the Vandar. They never talk down to me and they're really quite friendly. I often find that they are more than willing to help me play a joke or two on some of the larger races."
Zhaun:
(Zha'un)
"I have nothing nice to say about the Zhaun. They are a terrible race. The darkness of their skin shows the color of their hearts. They trust no one, not even each other. They're treacherous and cruel. There is NO joy in their hearts, only darkness."
Cernunian:
(Cernunian)
"I'm not sure what to make of the Cernunians. It's so strange to think you're about to land on a large shrub only to have it stand up and walk away from you. I will say that they do seem to catch on to magic rather quickly, but I'm not really sure what their species is all about, or what they do for fun."
Gnomes:
(Feinggar)
"They talk as fast as we move, and they seem to think that fast too. They don't seem to like us all that much, or maybe they do and we just can't tell. Either way, they're entertaining."
