This template is a means for PC's to play a fey creature without the really high level adjustments.

Fey TouchedEdit

Fey touched creatures are creatures born with fey blood in them, typically 3rd generation or more. They are born with some of the unique abilities granted to them by their fey lineage. Depending on their lineage, they get different abilities. The most common are nymph, glaistig, and sirine.

Creating A Fey TouchedEdit

This template is an inherited template that can be applied to any humanoid, monstrous humanoid or giant. A fey touched creature uses all the base creature’s stats except as noted here.
