Pixie

Tiny

About

Pixies do not ambush travellers. They turn them. A party walks a moor they know, in daylight, with a landmark in view, and arrives four hours later at the same gatepost for the third time. This is called being pixie-led and it is not considered a joke in the west country. The remedy is old, undignified and completely reliable: take off your coat, turn it inside out, and put it back on. The moor gives up immediately.

Special Attack

Pixie-led: 100 ft, no line of sight required. Save Wis Mind, fail save roll 1d4 psychic and the target loses all sense of direction until the effect is broken - every path taken leads back to where it started. Cooldown 3 rounds. Pinprick: piercing, melee 5 ft, +3 to hit, 1d4+1.

Special Defense

Coat Turned Inside Out: any creature that reverses a worn garment breaks Pixie-led on itself instantly and permanently for that encounter. No roll. Every pixie present will find this hilarious and slightly unsporting. Never Seen Coming: they are only ever glimpsed at the edge of vision and cannot be attacked on a round in which they have not acted.
