## Teaflings

<span style="font-variant: small-caps">The potency of your tea is all in the quality of the leaf. Each </span> *tea is as singular and unique as the leaves used to brew it. Allow your leaves to steep at length to your liking. The longer they steep, the more bold and aggressive the flavor. Steep for lesser time to fabricate a light and delicate flavor.*

*Do not be afraid to experiment with your choice of ingredients. You may be surprised by the ways in which a sutble inclusion of orange rind can transform the flabor profile of your draught. Each ingredient brings something distinct to the personality of your tea and take every liberty to customize it to your liking.*

*Above all else, tea should be brewed in a spot of safety, in a room full of love, and - with a little luck and a lot of magic - you might bring your very creation to life.*

### What's in a Name?
The first teaflings were said to have come from the realm of the fae, long before there was any connection to the material plane. Originally called Tea Leaf-lings, they came to be known as Teaflings in the Common tongue and find it wildly amusing that they are often confused for those of demonic lineage.

### Brewed into Being
Teaflings are born from a hot pot of mixed herbs, in a room steeped in peace and love, with just a dash of wild magic to catalyze their birth. Due to their uncommon and fortuitous means of birth, they are often an omen of luck and a sign of prosperity for the household that summons them forth.

### Teafling Names
