Bixie
Description
Bixies are tiny, pixie-like humanoids with bee-like features.
Lore
Bixies swarm together in stone towers in the Misty Thicket, Nektulos Forest, East Commonlands, Kithicor Forest, and other wooded areas throughout Norrath. They usually mind their own business unless disturbed, and will sometimes help a respectful traveler.
These tiny fey have plump bodies striped with yellow and black, like bumble bees. Their wings also resemble those of bees. Although they are not evil, bixies dislike intrusion onto their territory and are very quick to anger. Some bixies attack travelers out of spite and attempt to shoo them away from their hive, while others attack merely to make trouble, and still others attack in an attempt to steal shiny baubles from travelers.
Stone Hive Bixies generally stay closer to the tower hive in Misty Thicket. They serve the queen, guard the tower, and rescue endangered workers. They know enough about herbalism to make special honeys and other products with naturally healthy and pleasing qualities. They adore their queen as much as do the workers and will steal pretty items from strangers to give to her.
In 2006, the lore surrounding bixies and their population were significantly expanded in the Serpent's Spine expansion, introducing the Stone Hive zone [1].
