In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the Nixie is a Fey. They are reclusive and suspicious but good-hearted on the inside water spirits who safeguard freshwater pools and streams.

[edit] Physical Description

Nixies resemble attractive (somewhat) humanoid females (though males also exist) with green skin and hair and webbed apendages. One might say that they look as though they were compossed of water, bubbles and swamp foilage. They are slim and comely and lightly scaled.

[edit] Society

Nixies are goodly and not-wanting-to-cause-harm on the inside, but nevertheless are highly shy, reclusive and suspicious. They are unforthcoming to those they don't trust, rarely leave their watery homes, and can be hostile when they need to be. Nixies do, deep down, want friendship, and have the ability to charm other to become their friend. Occasionally a nixie will lure a human into the water, but they are usually more interested in company rather than drowning a visitor. Nixies love music, and make instruments from reeds on the banks of streams.
