Funnily enough I had almost literally the opposite of this happen in 5e. Hang on, I typed it up recently so I'll just go and screencap from 4pleb, should be easy to find.
Not sure what tropes this would fall under ("a small cute monster joins the party but then morphs into something big when it gets scared"), but it was hilarious for both me and the players.

I do this with my dragon sorcerers. Though they prefer housecats to Lolis. Lithe, pampered, compact, and nothing else gets to act as smug as a dragon and get away with it.

Jeremiah Reyes
Exactly what she said. The outer body was just a shell to protect herself in case she get defeated in combat.
That creature they're riding at the end? That's her too. She's a dragonloli, if you couldn't tell.
Jeremiah Morales
That's not exactly norm- whatever. And no, I couldn't tell she was the dragon at the end of it.
Though most anime is difficult to follow when you drop the middle, or take it out of context.

In this setting, fairies are created by the gods. So the god of fire creates fire fairies, the goddess of water creates water fairies, and so on. But the party's water-fairy companion really only pays lip service to the goddess of water but seems oddly reverent of the god of thieves, and due to general plot and character progression they've come to suspect she's actually some other kind of fairy pretending to be a water fairy for some reason.
While she is a water fairy, she was created by the god of thieves, not the goddess of water, from the soul of a mortal who was executed for piracy. Despite breaking the god of thieves' most sacred law by narc'ing on her crew to save her own hide from torture, she begged the god for forgiveness when she was hanged anyway. In a rage at her audacity for asking, the god of thieves turned her into a harmless fairy and cast her out of his realm, a heaven for thieves. Her goal now, as a fairy, is to become the world's greatest pirate, because piracy will essentially be discredited forever if the world's greatest pirate is a tiny adorable harmless little fairy. And then the god will have to notice her.
Aaron Scott
I just want to point out that dragonlolis are canon in D&D.

Andrew Young
The problem with this is that it's very difficult to allow everyone to contribute. There's nothing wrong with giving the party thief a chance to shine but everyone else's most optimal path is usually to sit and wait until they get their shit back.
Dylan Watson
It's all just shapeshifting, user. She is practically unkillable, even when gruesome injuries happen to her she can just shed the outer body like a bug. It's great shock value when it happened, because it was completely out of no where and probably the most violent moment in the series, and then she just pops out of her own body like nothing.
Asher Bell
Sounds pretty cute user, and an interesting take as well.
Has anyone tried to fug it?

I hate villains that are either insane or just outright evil and know they're evil. Or, at least, I hate it outside of parodies or kid's works. Even evil people don't usually think of themselves as the villains. It takes some actual thought and skill to write a villain who is sympathetic yet still villainous - rather than "secretly not really a villain" or "crazy stupid evil."
Benjamin Sullivan
Do what you must, lawman.
The truth won't be silenced.

I haven't done anything, though someone else might have.

Sometimes a villain who’s sole motivation is evil for its ownsake can be the best character.
Noah Campbell
It's pretty rare to see that done well outside of parodies or kid's shows.

I'm doing the reverse in my game. Fantasy space game and there's a race of fairies I made up who were forcibly modified to be able to interface with computers. They're small, glow neon, and have a cable sticking out of their head like a cyberpunk version of the Navi. The party hasn't realized that the buggy ship computer they picked up when repairing their ship with salvage from an abandoned station had one of these fairies nesting in it, and their quirky and annoying ship AI is not actually an AI.
Jace Rivera
>Cyberfairies
That's pretty awesome, user. Tell me more. How were they modified? How do they work now? What is their function? Do they have free will? If so, how are they controlled? Can they be hacked? Do they get viruses?
Joshua Kelly
The purpose of them was to be more reliable than AI or to function better. They were mostly curious of how they would perform compared to the AI of the time. They're sentient and have free will because one of the main ideas was for an AI that couldn't be hacked because their minds are still more biological than cybernetic. Unfortunately this meant they were hard to control so the experiment was a bust. Every attempt to make them controllable resulted in compromising the benefits they were meant to have for cyber security, organization and efficiency. Removing their free will removed their usefulness. Similar problems have happened with AI where the desired intelligence results in sentience and rebellion. The fairies' minds are like those of mathematical savants, with all of the mental disabilities that would normally include. That plus their glowing neon colors means they're on more than one spectrum. So while some worlds depict fairies as airheads with pea sized brains, these ones are neets who spend all their time on the internet.
Even more unfortunate for their creators, when an infiltrator was trying to steal a few of the rejected cyber fairies, they accidentally let most of them go and they became just another minor race of creatures infesting the underbelly of the space station city. They build nests inside large mainframes or between computer banks to keep warm and find a place to plug in. Some of them hide away just to spend all their time in cyberspace, others are captured, enslaved, or even hired by shadier groups who have a need for their skills in hacking or security. The hired ones are the only ones who do their jobs well, though even they are prone to mischief and online trolling.
This particular one was among a few creatures still struggling for life in an abandoned orbital colony station. She had been alone for a while and had no one to talk to but the really stupid adware AI on the station. So she's extra crazy.

>Dealing with magic as science
Some people don't like this trope, but if you research something, if you understand it, if you can use if and make prediction of results based on previous data, it is a science.
Unless your magic is done through a deity or an arcane pact that can be changed by the beings in control, than it turns into a social science and that sucks.
Michael Jones
What if magic is a sentient cosmoc firce? Every time someone tries to figure out the ‘how’ of magic’s effect at deeper than a surface level ‘cast spell, magic ensues’ they get exploded by magic and all their research is destroyed?

Winds of Magic from Warhammer Fantasy, where even the gods can't make it entirely predictable and safe is the best magic.
