So, I don't really like the Fairy lineage so I made my own Fairy homebrew race lol

Gentry, 5e homebrew race

Bayonetta demon masquerade form, belongs to Platinum Games

History

In ages past, the Gentry were fairy nobility that were much taller than normal and wielded powerful magic. Eventually, one of their highest members convinced all of them to travel to the material plane in pursuit of a land not dominated by the Archfey. They were successful, at the cost of their powers and immortal lives.

 In modern times, the Gentry are a material race like any other, but their culture still clings to their former glory. While most Gentry spend their whole lives in their secret meadow villages, a few become adventures.

Physical Description

The Gentry appear as humanoid, wingless butterflies from far away. Up close, their chiton bodies look almost skeletal in their thinness, with regular sized heads. Their faces have large compound eyes and lipless mouths.  They have thin, curly antenna where eyebrows would normally be. The average Gentry has a black body and monocolor eyes, but there are some with different colorations. Most adult Gentry have the ability to manifest vibrant butterfly wings.

Society

The Gentry live in secret villages located in meadows far away from industrial civilization. Most of these Butterfly folk spend their entire long lives in harmony with nature and their communities, taking only what they need and sharing what they can.

Instead of Good and Evil, the Gentry believe in Beauty and the Ugly. All things symmetrical, colourful, and pleasing to the eye are to be preserved and protected at all cost. Likewise, all things imperfect, grey, and revolting ought to be destroyed. This worldview causes conflict between the Gentry and most other material races, who believe good is not skin deep.

Like in most other cultures, the Gentry who become adventures are mostly outcasts who long for more than their boring life. Some do it to learn more about the world they live in, either seeking a kind of enlightenment or just broadening their horizons. Others for a sense of wanderlust and freedom outside of the community. But most leave for the sake of increasing their power; all the stories say they are this world's Archfey, so why not embrace their destiny?

After the transformation ends, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest. You can't use your flying speed if you are wearing medium or heavy armor.

I am going to cry myself to sleep because I don't have any sessions planned. I guess you guys are free to use this but don't make any money off of it or else Hasbro will kill you.

The Monarch Butterfly Dragons are some of the smallest dragons in the Feywild, but still full of mischief. The dice are some Mysterious Fire dice.

In an effort to get past my anxiety of “wasting” good art supplies, I bought myself so many sets of paper butterflies and moths from Moth & Myth, and I intend to use them all!

‘Omen’ features Death’s Head Moths

‘Open Skies’ features a variety of blue butterflies

And then in a totally different form of experimentation, I’ve made my first two 40mm d20s (I’ve dubbed them Heckin’ Chonks). The size difference compared to my 22mm and 30mm d20s is staggering. (If you’re not used to thinking about d20 size, standard is 18-20mm.)

I love them all!

If any of these dice need to come home with you, they’ll be on my site tomorrow, December 3, at 5pm EST.
