Murxie

The excitable sprites of the Darklands’ Ether Court are often more mean-spirited than their brethren, with a love of drinking, insults, and improv comedy. Murxies prefer dark, musty hideaways where they can put on shows and jeer at one another undisturbed. Their gossamer wings and the colorful patterns that cover their tiny humanoid bodies glow brightly to illuminate such spaces.

Sidebar - Treasure and Rewards Sprite Collections

Murxies have a reputation for thievery. In truth, this isn’t one of their vices—they’re simply curious about the world and have a tendency to fly away with objects that don’t belong to them, not understanding the concept of ownership. As a result, murxies tend to have interesting small objects in their possession, such as talismans or gemstones.

Sprite

Source Monster Core pg. 322
Elusive, flighty, and ebullient, sprites are what many villagers first imagine when they hear the terms “fey” or “fairy.” While their dispositions vary, all sprites share a connection to magic and a diminutive size. This family of fey shares its name with its slightest and most populous member, the common sprite.

Sidebar - Additional Lore Sprite Pranks

Sprite pranks tend to be kind-hearted in nature; they might use their abilities to embarrass a braggart or to trick them into a convoluted scheme to help someone notice an admirer who has been there for them all along. Their plans are often half-baked; sprites' mercurial nature means they can easily become distracted by something new before following through on a previous plan.
