Race

https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Sidhe,Variant(5e_Race)

• Fae Court: Choose a fae court to belong to. You have advantage on Persuasion checks when dealing with other Sidhe or lesser fey allied with your court. You also gain resistance to, depending on court alignment, fire (Summer), cold (Winter) or necrotic (Wild).
• Compulsions:
  • A sidhe cannot tell a direct lie, however, they are allowed to twist the truth or give vague answers. Ex: questioner: who is your mother? You: a sidhe noble of high rank. (as opposed to telling them your mother's actual name.) You also must answer any questions that are asked of you three times (the common phrase among sidhe is "Thrice I ask and done"). The Sidhe consider anyone who ask thrice extremely rude, potentially to the point of mortal insult.
  • They will follow the letter of the contract or legal requirements, but they lack the concept of ‘spirit of the law’ and so can be good, evil or neutral.
• Iron Aversion: The touch of iron and its alloys burns you. If you touch any iron or steel with your bare skin, you take 1d4 damage per turn in contact with the material. Your starting metal weapons and armors are made of an equivalent material, but items typically looted count as steel unless otherwise stated.
• Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and Sylvan.
• You know the druidcraft cantrip.
  • Once you reach 3rd level, you can cast the charm person spell once per day.
  • Once you reach 5th level, you can also cast the suggestion spell once per day. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
