Sprites

In secret groves and shaded glens in the World Forest, tiny sprites with dragonfly wings flutter. For all their fey splendor, however, sprites lack warmth and compassion. They are aggressive and hardy warriors, taking severe measures to ward strangers away from their homes. Interlopers that come too close have their moral character judged, then are put to sleep or frightened off.
They tend to stand around 8 inches tall, with humanoid bodies, chestnut skin with elf=like pointed ears and almond-shaped eyes.
