Sylpheed

Sylpheeds are Air Elementals and a subvariety of Fae. They are embedded with the air.

Physiology & Behaviour
Sylpheeds, like most Fae, are humanoid in shape and appearance. Male Sylpheeds are very rare, but they are not nonexistent like male Undines. Sylpheeds are able to retract and sprout transparent, insect-like wings from their back. The only thing that differentiates their outer physical appearance from the likes of Pixies are their size. In proportion to most Fae, they have very low mass-to-size ratios. Some human scholars believe that this might be caused by hollow bones, much like a bird.

Sylpheeds are one with the wind, being able to command it at the beck of their call. Older Sylpheeds may know how to bend the very winds to grant invisibility.

Sylpheeds can dissipate into wind and reform.

Sylpheeds prefer the skies and air to the ground. As such, you are very unlikely to see Sylpheeds on the forest floors.

Breeding
Sylpheeds mate in a similiar fashion to butterflies, even if the consort is incapable of flight. They will perform such activity airborne.

Weaknesses
As Sylpheeds have the lowest average mass-to-size ratio among all known Fae varieties and subvarieties, they are vulnerable to heavy strikes. While younger Sylpheeds are more brittle, older ones can easily shake it off.
