Fey?


Dragon Magazine General Discussion


In my both of my groups, players have often asked to see more D&D articles on fairies other than what's in the MM. Politics of the courts, associations of the courts in the mortal realms, stuff like that.

I do like that fey bloodlines have become a more prominent addition in 3.5, and I've also seen a prestige class or two. But, Dragon/Dungeon.

Thoughts?

Greetings, YeuxAndI!

I am not aware of any recent articles in Dragon or Dungeon, but there was a whole series of articles focusing on fey over at the Wizards website. This link should take you there:

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/fey

If the link doesn't work, just go to the D&D main page, then go to Articles and click on the 'Retired Articles' link. Look for the 'Fey Feature' link in that list. The articles are by Gwendolyn Kestrel and Faith Price, and are full of great information.

They have details on the Seelie and Unseelie Courts, fey nobility, celebrations, feuds, as well as new magic and new types of fey.

Hope that helps!

Neato! Thanks a bunch!


You might look for a copy of "Wee People". It's an old D&D supplement that went into depth on the Faerie King and his court. It might be available in the Wizards Archive section.


"Tall Tales of the Wee Folk"is a nice, but somewhat technical treatment of the fae IMHO. I always loved the Ars Magica books on this subject: Faeries is the best book on the subject, at least of those I know. It would be difficult to transfer into D&D, of course.

I read those articles on WotC website and ended up printing them out. I thought they were pretty good. They have helped me in developing my campaign world that happens to feature the
Fae Folk prominently.
