====Soldiers====
Flying monkeys are sometimes used as light infantry by some armies. They are intelligent enough to train and carry out simple instructions. However, are not tough enough to be shock troops. Flying monkeys that are soldiers usually wear leather armor and are armed with {{srd5lc|Dart}}s.
----==Feywild and Shadowfell==While not native to the {{5ep|Feywild}} or {{5ep|Shadowfell}}, flying monkies are often captured to use a soldiers (see {{5e Footeriplink|MonsterSoldiers}}above) by forces of both these parallel planes. Because of their flighty and unreliable nature, they often are abandoned and form groups in the wild places of these planes.  ==Sources and Notes==<references />
