Fae come in various forms. They are a very heterogeneous group, as there are many different kinds of faerie. Some of them are humanoid in their form, some like animals, and others like various monsters.
See: Faery Physiology
Abilities and Powers[]
All Fae possess the gifts of tongues, glamour, flight, and limited shapeshifting. Also possess the unnatural abilities of swiftness and grace.
Politics[]
Many of the faeries belong to one of the two Faerie Courts of the Fae Realm, the Summer Court and the Winter Court. Those that do not belong to either are the Wyldfae or called the Roamer.
Weakness[]
- Iron - Iron is poisonous of the Fae and may kill them if there is too much in their system. Iron can be passed into a Fae's system by the slightest touch so most tend to avoid cold Iron with a vengeance.
- Rowan wands - Rowan wands can break a Fae Glamour prematurely.
- Shiny Objects - Fae are very susceptible to shiny objects and are often seen dressed in sequins and gems. While this particular weakness does not incapacitate them, it could possibly be useful in distracting them.
