Pixies wear bright clothing, often including a cap and shoes with curled and pointed toes.

A pixie stands about 2-1/2 feet tall and weighs about 30 pounds.

Pixies speak Sylvan and Common, and may know other [[SRD:Speak Language Skill|languages]] as well.
===Combat===
The normally carefree pixies ferociously attack evil creatures and unwanted intruders. They take full advantage of their invisibility and other abilities to harass and drive away opponents.

'''Greater Invisibility {{Su}}:''' A pixie remains [[SRD:Invisible|invisible]] even when it attacks. This ability is constant, but the pixie can suppress or resume it as a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]].

'''[[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|Spell-Like Abilities]]:''' 1/day—''[[SRD:Lesser Confusion|lesser confusion]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 14), ''[[SRD:Dancing Lights|dancing lights]], [[SRD:Detect Chaos|detect chaos]], [[SRD:Detect Good|detect good]], [[SRD:Detect Evil|detect evil]], [[SRD:Detect Law|detect law]], [[SRD:Detect Thoughts|detect thoughts]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 15), ''[[SRD:Dispel Magic|dispel magic]], [[SRD:Entangle|entangle]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 14), ''[[SRD:Permanent Image|permanent image]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 19; visual and auditory elements only)<s>, ''[[SRD:Polymorph (Spell)|polymorph]]'' (self only)</s>. [[SRD:Caster Level|Caster level]] 8th. The save [[SRD:DC|DCs]] are [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based.

One pixie in ten can use ''[[SRD:Irresistible Dance|irresistible dance]]'' ([[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] 8th) once per day.

'''Special Arrows {{Ex}}:''' Pixies sometimes employ arrows that deal no damage but can [[SRD:Erase|erase]] memory or put a creature to [[SRD:Sleep|sleep]].  

''Memory Loss:'' An opponent struck by this arrow must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 15 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Will save]] or lose all memory. The save [[SRD:DC|DC]] is [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based and includes a +2 racial bonus. The subject retains skills, [[SRD:Speak Language Skill|languages]], and [[SRD:Class|class]] abilities but forgets everything else until he or she receives a ''[[SRD:Heal|heal]]'' spell or memory [[SRD:Restoration|restoration]] with ''[[SRD:Limited Wish|limited wish]], [[SRD:Wish|wish]],'' or ''[[SRD:Miracle|miracle]]''.

''Sleep:'' Any opponent struck by this arrow, regardless of [[SRD:Hit Dice|Hit Dice]], must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 15 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]] or be affected as though by a ''[[SRD:Sleep|sleep]]'' spell. The save [[SRD:DC|DC]] is [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based and includes a +2 racial bonus.
