We walked as stealthily as we could through the thick forest's underbrush, with Sharian the Old grunting each time his wizard's robes got snagged in a twig or branch. We had been searching for weeks now for this new kind of Fae. According to the region's druids, they were a manifestation of each land's life force. I parted a frosted bush and stilled a yelp; there, between two red leafed, frosted birch stood what appeared to be a collection of pieces of wood, leaves, ferns and whatnot in a roughly humanoid shape; with a "mask" with glowing rune and eyes. We had found them, the keepers, the Tinderlings!

About the Tinderlings:
The Tinderlings are elemental fae, or nature spirits, and are formed by bits and pieces of the environment they inhabit.
They do not eat as we do, instead they feed directly from the life force of a healthy ecosystem, and neither do they have a gender.
Their language consists of whispers, mixed with the natural sounds of their particular environment, though, whenever they move or talk, woody clicks,
similar to wooden chimes, can be heard alongside their particular environment sounds.
They are not aggressive by nature, they are keepers of their environment, and someone who hunts or recollects without upsetting the natural balance will not
cause the wrong kind of attention from a Tinderling.

See item in Second LifeFantastic!
This is another reason why I adore Second Life! The ideas of it and how the avatar is made is just incredible! Everything has been told in its humble description. If you like marginality and make people talking around you, this product is made for you!
I have bought a AO very animated with which my avi' jumps to right, to left and appears to be very bizarre/creepy! It adds something really good to my character! So thank you very much for your art!
Sincerely
