-'''Leprechauns''' are diminutive faeries who usually appear as bearded men or goodwives in distinctly [[Celtic Milieu (religion)|Celtic]] dress.  They are most common in Eire or the western coasts of Britain.  It is extremely rare to see them as far east as the Midlands or further south than Wales.  In spirit, they enjoy frivolity but are not partial to mischief or cruel humour. They're flamboyant, talkative, clever and deadly serious when it comes to matters of money.  Rumours that they are a menace to humans, that they steal things or that they spirit away children, are heinous lies passed around by those who have failed to obtain a leprechaun's good wishes.

-They dwell in fair, [[Glade|sylvan]] woodlands, with lush hills and dales, such as are found in favoured spots throughout the isles.  Though almost always solitary, parties of three or five (never two or four!) will take it upon themselves to travel abroad and see other parts of the world.  They will always return singly if one of their party passes away or becomes separated.
+__TOC__
 Contrary to popular myth, leprechauns do not trade in either gold or wishes, but they are sometimes willing to transfer '''luck''' to deserving souls.  Performing a service for a grateful leprechaun might win the Samaritan a single [[Gold (metal)|gold]] [[Coin (monetary unit)|coin]] which, if rubbed once a day, will allow the owner to gain a +3 bonus to any die roll in their favour (+30% for a percentile die) and once a week provide the character with a joyful happenstance or coincidence of some kind, such as a friend appearing at a time of need or an enemy failing to appear as expected.  The exact nature of the happenstance is left to the DM.

-Leprecauns have a number of [[Natural Abilities|natural abilities]] that they can perform, though of all their possible effects they are unable to achieve more than one per round.  They are able to become '''invisible at will''', as often as they please.  They can '''polymorph''' objects that are no larger than themselves into any other object, of any material, excepting valuable metal such as gold, silver or platinum (though copper is easy enough).  They are adept at '''ventriloquism''' and often use it to distract enemies or warn friends.

 Their '''create illusion''' ability is multi-varied.  They are able to create a '''duplicate of themselves''', which will fight but not perform magic as they themselves can do.  They are able to create both a [[Phantasmal Figure (spell)|phantasmal figure]] or [[Phantasmal Guard (spell)|guard]], [[Dancing Lights (spell)|dancing lights]], [[Audible Glamer (spell)|audible glamer]] or a [[Spectral Milieu (spell)|spectral milieu]].
