General Information

There are as many names for the fair folk as there are cultures in the world - fae (and all its derivations), fairy (and all its derivations), fianna, sídhe, síth, elves, sprites, spirits and on and on. The fae often live in realms hidden from other species, and cross over only to dole out favor or fury. The fae are widely regarded as tricksters. Any interactions with them should be treated with extreme caution and entering deals with them is inadvisable.

Some fae delight in tricking non-fae into eating their food, trapping the victims in the fae realm forever. Others will coax non-fae into playing mundane games with dire consequences.

Are Fae Monsters?

Some prominent scholars believe that the Fae could be considered their own "subtype" of monster, at least from the perspective of humanity. However, it is likely that the traditional "barbaric" monsters would not agree with that assessment.

Appearance

Appearances of the fae vary wildly. Many of them appear human, or almost human to outsiders. Many choose not to conform for the comfort of other humanoid species, and present as their natural forms. They are often marked by distinctions of their sub-species.
