Nymphs are feminine manifestations of the consciousness of various places of nature such as a hill, lake, meadow, or river. At will, a nymph can form (or dissipate) a human-like
body from the substance of her home. They usually take the form of a beautiful and desirable female of whatever species they are speaking to. Nymphs manifest the primal magic of fertility and desire, and so most nymphs appear sexually attractive to sentient beings. Malevolent nymphs reflect a deep sense of rejection and are correspondingly hideous.
Nymphs are lesser goddesses. They can sense all spirits within their home area and usually rule the spirits of their home. They can command non-sentient beings that reside
within their home. Some nymphs are so powerful that they are worshiped by shamans or a local Earth cult. At regular or special times, such a nymph is called forth to share herself with worshipers who offer wine, dance, and songs.
