=The Entry of the Pixies Everyone Loves to Hate Year 520= One of the many races that developed in '''Cornia''' was a small, pixie like race known as '''Windlings.''' For some time, they lived separately from much of civilization, primarily sticking to wooded areas far from the influence of larger humanoids. Some more urban cultures considered them mythical even, since they were rarely seen. No non-windling is entirely sure what made their attitude change, but the windlings all like to tell wildly varying stories that range from "We just got bored of living in trees and wanted to see what rocks sounded like" to "A tall person was nice to me once so I cleaned his house while he slept and never left." Windlings took over cities like insects. At first, there would be a sighting of one or two, and then a few weeks later there could be as many as thousands in large enough areas, and then they would get bored and move on to the next area, often in less than a year. After being given enough time to settle, they could fairly consistently in different areas, though few decided to stay in one place for too long. '''Windlings''' brought with them a fresh perspective on magic, particularly in applications of flashy illusions and "wiggling your fingers until it's bigger on the inside so you can fit your favorite rocks in it." '''Windlings''' were also fairly knowledgeable in things like agriculture (albeit on a small scale) and some other magical renditions of botany and artwork. They were not well received by all, and some more closed-minded individuals referred to them as pests. '''Windlings''' were seldom concerned with how the "tall people" felt about them, and largely continued to do their own thing. For descriptive purposes: '''Windlings''' are a pixie-like race of humanoids. They are about 1'6" tall and possess large butterfly wings, which they can use to fly. They are naturally adept at magic, mental fortitude, and speed, but are physically weak due to their small stature. They also tend to change colors to adapt to their surroundings over time. They are fairly capricious and eager to explore the world around them, but easily distracted by the thought of adventure or shiny objects. ===The Great Fairies Ascend Year 530=== The goddess of nature, in order to keep the '''Windlings'''' chaotic nature in check, selected several responsible and level-headed individuals among them to watch over their people from within the largest woodland areas in the land. They grew both in size and power, and were gifted with great wisdom. These chosen of the goddess became known as the '''Great Fairies'''. When a '''Great Fairy''' delivers an edict, even the mischievous '''Windlings''' are inclined to obey. Occasionally, non-windling heroes or champions of the goddess received gifts from the '''Great Fairies''', be they of magical or physical nature.
