Spirit folk were mystical descendants of humans and natural spirits. These creatures were uncommon all over Faerûn but were most likely to be found in Rashemen and Kara-Tur. They are loving and peaceful creatures, in tune with the natural world around them.[3]

Description[]

Spirit folk resembled humans, but with more delicate features. They had smooth, hairless skin, except on the top of their head and thin eyebrows.[3]

Relations[]

Spirit folk get along well with most races, they are friendly and noninvasive. [3]

Humans[]

Spirit folk usually blended in with human societies. They lived their lives as normal humans would, but were usually considered as wise or spiritual by their peers. Humans who lived around spirit folk usually assume they were just eccentric humans rather than a separate species.[3] In Kara-Tur spirit folk enjoyed legal privileges, such as land-owning, that were restricted to humans [4]

Elves[]

Although rarely integrating with elven society, spirit folk got on well with elves.[3]
