The Pixie race and class where my first entries into the OSR community and the positive response of the Pixie is one of the factors that lead to the creation of this blog. The following is a slightly revised Pixie Trickster to fit more inline with the whole of “Lands of Eira” and to be less generic/setting neutral.
The artwork was commissioned by me and done by the wonderful Nacho Penguin over at Deviantart.

The Pixie Trickster
The Pixies trickster is a mischievous little fae, who works best when they are pulling pranks on others. Lost your coin purse? Did your pants suddenly fall down? did you find yourself unable to let go of that barmaid’s rear-end? Most likely a Pixie trickster.

Why d6-1 instead of d4? Can they fly?
I always liked the rule from Thieves Guild where there is a 25% chance that whatever they say won't be believed.
They can fly. there are aspects of the race listed with the main article/section on Pixies on Eira. I have never hear of Thieves Guild, I will have to try to dig it up.
This is exciting. I look forward to your finished product!
Thank you, sir! I do hope you will enjoy it.
