Sprites are reclusive fey creatures, looking like tiny elves just a foot tall with dragonfly-like wings. They go out of their way to fight evil and ugliness and to protect their homelands. Sprites fight their opponents with spell-like abilities and pint-sized weaponry. They prefer ambushes and other trickery over direct confrontation.

1’ tall, winged humanoids, related to pixies and elves. They are shy, but driven by curiosity and their odd sense of humour.

Special Abilities

Curse: Five sprites can collectively curse a target (no attack roll; save versus spells). The effect is determined by the referee, but will always be used to comical effect (e.g. target trips, target’s nose grows).
Pranksters: Even if attacked, sprites have no interest in killing, merely in making practical jokes.

Sprites use daggers in melee, but prefer small bows (treat as a short bow, but half range and 1d3 damage per arrow). The arrows will be coated with sleep poison (save vs poison or slumber for 1d6 hours). They can become invisible at will, detect evil at will as per the spell, and move in complete silence.

They will typically only attack evil creatures or those that blunder through their homes. Evil things will be slain, others removed in their sleep to somewhere far away.
