Lotus Eaters are nature spirits who have lived among us for centuries, have a role in many mythologies around the world, and have gone by many names; faeries, sprites, kodama, kami, dryads, menehune etc. They vary in size, ranging from about 4 inches in height, to 3 feet tall. Their physical appearance is generally that of a tiny human, hybridized with some plant or animal features, such as leaves or fur.

In the past, the Lotus Eaters were spirits of nature, and protected the forests, jungles, and rivers.

In the modern world, as humans take over more and more of nature, the Lotus Eaters have assimilated into our cities, and continue to live among us today. The Lotus Eaters run freely through the city and continue to leave their mark on the world. They plant flowers and succulents around town, and they leave messages of love and happiness through street art and words of wisdom.
