Subraces.
The Thoptra are divided into two subraces, the
charismatic yet whimsical Crickets, and the stoic and
suspicious Locusts.
Cricket
They say there's no better entertainment than a cricket in a
tavern. Those who have seen these cheerful and open figures
fill the room with music and cheer. The crickets seek to enjoy
life's pleasures one day at a time, with no regard for the past
or future.

increases by 2.
Charming Musician. You know the friends cantrip. When
you reach 3rd level, you can cast the charm person spell once
with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a
long rest. When you reach 5th level, you can cast the
suggestion spell once and regain the ability to do so when you
finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for
these spells.
Mystical Stridulation. You can replace verbal components
for your spells with sounds you create from your wings and
legs.
Performer's Intuition. You gain proficiency in one skill of
your choice: Deception, Performance, or Persuasion.
Standing Leap. You can jump a distance equal to your
walking speed and high jump equal to half of that distance,
with or without a running start.
Locust
Dwelling in the distant wilds are the locusts, skilled hunters,
and guardians of the wilderness. Armed with bow and blade,
these reclusive individuals claim to keep neutrality and focus
on their own lands. Naturally connected to the creatures of
the wild, locusts travel through the branches with astounding
speed before bringing their prey down with a barrage of
arrows.
Ability Score Increase. Your Constitution increases by 2.
Flight. You have a flying speed of 10 feet, but you must
land at the end of every minute or begin to fall. When you
reach 5th level, your flying speed increases to 20 feet, and the
time restriction is lifted. You can't be wearing medium or
heavy armor to use this speed.
Swarm Tactics. You have advantage on an attack roll
against a creature if at least one of your allies is within 5 feet
of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated.
Prowler's Intuition. You gain proficiency in one skill of
your choice: Animal Handling, Medicine, Nature, or Survival.
Speech of Beast and Leaf. You can communicate in a
limited manner with beasts and plants. They can understand
the meaning of your words, though you can't understand
them in return. You have advantage on all Charisma checks
you make to influence them.
