General RPG DiscussionDiscussion of all RPGs and non-system-specific topics. DM/GM/player issues, settings, etc. Rules discussion belongs in one the forums below.
If the title doesn't explain it all, has anyone heard anything about a future book that details creatures from the Feywild in a similar fashion that Open Grave details creatures (the undead) from the Shadowfell? If so, what would be included (besides Eladrin)? Satyrs, pixies, sprites, centaurs, etc?
Nothing so far, but it will probably happen since there is definitely a want for it from the community as for what be in it?
Well, I imagine we will have some Archfey in it, more Gnomes, Eladrin, Fomorians, Quicklings, lots of classic Fey from folklore remade for it (there is enough to fill a whole bunch of books).
I imagine we will also get the assortment of encounters, fluff, probably artificats, maybe some PC/NPC-oriented thing (like Grafts in Open Grave) and such.

I started a thread asking for a Fey book over on Wizards. 3e didn't have one, and we all ready have several ones in the 4e.
I can see several things in there. Psychology of fae (something a challenge to do). Lairs (Fantastical locales), monsters. I'd love to see some rules about faeries deal-making/hijinx. Information on Fomorians would be very useful.
Not to mention skill challenges for escaping a faerie dance, a riddle contest (like Rumplestiltskin), and getting information out of a tricky fae.
Oh! We so need a fully-done local of a Troll/Fey/Goblin (Whatever you call it)-Market. It has become in more modern years a fairly fun, interesting and known part of Feyfolk so got to see it get done.
I would personally also like to see some stuff dealing with Fey in normal World, urban cities.
I agree, Rechan, stuff dealing with Fey-deals, and such be great. The Wild Hunt be awesome too, hmm... I wonder what form it would take, a single monster, a throng, a variety of beings cast as "The Wild Hunt".
I have forgotten, Baba Yuga hasn't been done yet right? She definitely needs to be made as a Archfey.

Dinosaurs. Like, all of them.
Lots of animals too.
Also, [if there is a supreme being, and he/she can talk to people at wotc] TSR Dungeons & Dragons Archive: Hollow World: Hollow World Campaign Set [NOTE: feywild doesn't have to be hollow; I'm talking about the whole 'primitive man and a bunch of dinosaurs in a forgotten, strange world' theme]. I'm totally fine if there's lots of forests, elves, and faeries included.
Since many real world legends and myths about fey mention a weakness towards iron, I think it would be cool to have weapons made from ivory, wood, and stone type stuff.
Hopefully with her hut as well... Hmm, I wonder what it would take its form as? A creature/mount, a magical item, or simply part of Baba Yuga stats. I imagine her mortar will be a magical item.

WotC just previewed the Practical Guide to Faeries. It has much of what you ask for, even if it seems much more like a fluff book than an actual sourcebook.

I can only hope for this, and since we are talking about classical fey's I will say I want Leprechaun's!!!!! and i mean the old celtic style leperchauns, and since now halflings are normal sized leprechauns can once again be the top rulers of 3' land
