There are four kinds of Nature Spirit Tribes. They are the Brownies, the Dwarves, the Elves, and the Fairies). Brownies have generally been observed wearing long pointy nightcaps, short brown coats and knee breeches, stockings, and boots. The Brownies often are seen earnestly working together in groups because they belong to tribes which vary in appearance from more than a foot in height to only being several inches tall. Communicative and gregarious by nature, their facial expressions are rustic and friendly. They live beneath the surface of the ground amongst the roots of bushes, plants, and trees. Their primary function seems to be working with flowing lines of magnetism in the soil, tending to the nurturance of the roots of their leafy charges, and in a more ancillary way preserving the features of the overall landscape. Sometimes they are attracted to quiet spots in homes where they may become attached to one of the family members.

house, as well as, those where they instigated a mood of disruptive renovation
when necessary. Brownies have a great deal of creative intelligence and have
been known to perform good deeds for people they liked, including helping with
the crops and the garden.
Dwarfs have normally appeared wearing conical red hats and blue or green clothes. Their noses tended to be rather bulbous The males are often bearded, fond of smoking pipes, and prone to carrying axes or shovels with them at all times since they are tasked with both protecting and guarding treasures of all kinds. Modest, reticent, and retiring the mannerisms of the Dwarfs are well grounded and endearingly countrified. Ancients among the elementals, the reclusive Dwarfs prefer to live in caves, mounds, and rocks. Folklore depicts the Dwarfs as champions of virtue and smiths to the gods and goddesses who frequently gifted mortals with gifts. Known for rewarding kindness with kindness and cruelty with cruelty, the assistance of the Dwarfs was usually gilded with magic since they were both superb craftsmen, as well as, masters of incantation. Their tribes retreated from the view screen of the mundane world when civilized society began to parody them and their hallowed activities.
Today the Dwarfs continue to watch over the full range of creative schematics in
the Natural World, from a fairy paint brushing magenta on a flower petal to the resident Sidhe Lightkeepers tending their recordkeeper quartz crystals... Continue on
