    I'm trying to translate the BG2ee ranger racial enemy. But what are faerie? Dryads e nymphs?
    The old vanilla translation sounds like Pixie.

    I assume that it means any enemy with the setting race=[Fairy], so the main example (which you confront several times during BG1) is Sirines, but also including Dryads, Nymphs, Nereids, and so on.

    I don't know into what language you're trying to translate, but "fairy" should be in any good English->(Your language) dictionary. "Faerie" is simply an archaic alternative spelling of "fairy".

    I tend to mostly play multiclasses, so if I want to go ranger (which I often do) I roll a Ranger/Cleric. For RP reasons, I pick demonic.

    @Kamigoroshi Don't insult cockroaches by comparing them to faeries! Cockroaches are wonderful creatures.

    Not sure why this thread was necroed but I'm not really interested in the topic any more so I'm closing it. Any translation issues can be brought up in an another thread.
