I am expecting them to be like pixies. I'll even play one if I can't be evil ( but I will complain)

In response to Reply #1


          

My guess is that Pixies will have a str score of 2, a dex of 25, and be 2 sizes smaller than gnomes. They'll be a thief/mage hybrid class with a small mix of druid/ranger abilities. Their equipment will be limited not only by their low carry weight, but will probably be limited to ultra-light pixie-only gear.

OR

Same stats, skills - Hand-to-hand, dodge, spinebreaker. Spells - Faerie fire, Pixiedust (+cha affect, as well as a thief mind control poison affect limited to "remove pants", and "tickle TARGET")

They are silly.

CF is a hardboiled, no-nonsense dark fantasy game, and there is already too much clownship in it without the pixies.

play them well I think.

assuming they are typical fantasy types.

Let's have less PK padding and some RP.

Me thinks you protest to much.

I hope they will be seasonal so I can at least play during the other seasons.

Are we not due for a small race with some decent DEX for a change. Right now Arials trump the scene with 25 dex, and I can never figure out if I'm supposed to have a beak, or feathers, or what exactly the deal is when I have one ^ ^

Whatever the actual lifespan hour-wise, I just don't like the flavor of it being shorter in years than human.

Talshidar or halflings would do nicely.

I like arials, on paper, but them being short-lived just turns me off, I do not like that flavor.

Halflings sound like something I might actually play.

I think you're a closet fairy.

Pixies are something I have wanted for years.

The quote is "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

Also it doesn't mean what you think it does. To "protest" in Shakespearian parlance is to "vow."

I was paraphrasing, not quoting.

I'll be surprised if you get the hand itching reference even if you are a self described Shakespearian.
