Legendary Actions

_Both more rugged and more ruthless than normal pixies, the aridni are an especially greedy breed of fey bandits and kidnappers._ **Pale Archers.** These ashen-faced fey with gray moth wings fire green-glowing arrows with a sneer and a curse. Aridni prefer ranged combat whenever possible, and they are quite difficult to lure into melee. They sometimes accept a personal challenge o respond to accusations of cowardice. **Caravan Raiders.** They’ve developed different magical abilities that aid them well when they raid caravans for captives to enslave and sell; charming foes into slavery is a favorite tactic. **Wealth for Status.** They delight in taking plunder from humans and dwarves, not so much for its own sake but as a sign of their power over mortals, and their contempt for those who lack fey blood.
