Physical Description

The Skyborn are quite small for most humanoids but much larger compared to most fey. They have many varied physical features depending on their origins and the influences of the nature around them. Some may have fully feathered bodies while others may simply look like winged elves or small humans. The defining characteristic of the Skyborn are their powerful feathered wings and hollow bones. Quick and agile in the air while sacrificing strength.

Relations

Skyborn exhibit the typical fey characteristics of whimsy and mischief. While they enjoy mocking those that are landbound they can get along with all but the most stubborn races.

Alignment and Religion

Skyborn are most often chaotic neutral or good, mostly following their own path and whims. They have no unified religion but might worship one of the Eldest if it pleases them

Adventurers
