The subtle hourglass figure of this tiny offshoot of an elven female is all you can see due to a strange silvery aura covering her. Her face is the exception, for it shows through as a near picture perfect model of beauty. The only spoiler in the package is the strange look of madness in her shimmering silver eyes.

Hunting strategies

It is best to keep the room pinned to the ground if possible so that the Ilvari cannot pull pranks by going invisible. Avoid the writhing dreamvines and keep an eye on your stance not being forced down or objects becoming bananas. There are various ways to be knocked down and the Ilvari pixies like to jump out of invisibility with melee attacks. The sprites and the pixies both cast dispel magics, and the pixies will major ewave sometimes.

Other information

The Ilvari pixies are male elementalists and the Ilvari sprites are female empaths. They cast elemental and spirit dispels respectively, which in combination can react badly inflicting damage on the target. There is a wide array of pranks and environmental hazards.

Behind the scenes

The Ilvari are fey spirits who take corporeal forms resembling small elves. Their mischievous nature has been twisted by dark power corrupting their environment. The colored lights are a reference to "faerie fire" or "fools fire", the glowing fog of pookas and other things in the folklore of fairy mythology. The word "Ilvari" is a De-ICE'd replacement of the word Iylari, which was the high elven race, as opposed to the Erlini "wood elves" such as those of the Elven Village. The story of the Red Forest and the Ilvari is based on the idea of fairies replacing children with changelings and dancing in fairy rings.
