Sylph
Sylph, Faerie, Pixie, and Sprite are just a few of the names these diminutive creatures are known as and they have as many personalities as names.
In most cases they are friendly and helpful, flitting around chattering cheerfully to travelers or passersby but be warned; you may encounter a malicious and spiteful Sylph that is more interested in causing you harm for no better reason than because you are breathing.
Fortunately these Sylphs are rare and not commonly encountered and those that do exist are shunned by the general population of Sylphs.
Sylphs are naturally magical creatures capable of magical flight. They are never more than 2 feet tall and more commonly in the 12 to 18 inch range.
Their magical nature makes them the ideal Mage because they have the ability to understand magic beyond the scope of the normal inhabitants of Orthos.
They also tend to gravitate towards the clerical type of professions as well. They make excellent battlefield healers due to the fact they are often overlooked because of their small stature and can freely move around among the battling troops.
