See...... this, to me, is a bunch of crap. To me, Gnomes are definitely NOT "Fey". However, Spriggans ARE "Fey". Everybody knows that Gnomes are demi-humans...... ;)

OK, from this I'm getting that 'Fey' doesn't possess a proper definition. You then go on to attempt a definition. I know not whether your definition is right or wrong, I just wish there was a universally accepted definition of "Fey". I have a scientific mind and tend towards compartmentalization...

Excuse me? Please do explain to me where I said this. And please know that I consider "Drow" to be but one species of Elf, and certainly not all Elves. Is the word "fairy" now taken to imply "fey"......??? Again, this is very, VERY confusing!!!! LoL, did Gygax realize back in the '70s that...

LoL, are you assuming I believe in the relevance of 4E? ;) I'm confused that different peeps say Drow ARE 'Fey', while others are saying they are NOT 'Fey'. Further, I'm confused that Elves without inborn magical abilities are considered 'Fey'.....

Now I'm just confused. I'm thinking "Fey" have to be 1) Humanoidish, and 2) possess innate magical ability ........I mean, at birth.

I see. If you could, could you please provide me with an "official" definition of what D&D considers to be "Fey"....??? Thank You!!!!

I'll attempt to find this & read it. However, it it goes on about "crow people" with no discernible innate, magical ability, I'll not consider it a proper write-up of the Tengu. I've recently read too many legend/lore thingies from Japanese mythology to believe the Tengu are only silly bird-men...

You forgot this pic of Hobgoblins......

I always assumed that Drow were "Fey" simply because they possessed innate magical abilities (Darkness & Faerie Fire). However, this list of "Fey" creatures omits the Drow...... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fey_(Dungeons_%26_Dragons) Is this merely an oversight, or am I the only one here...

OK. I did a little research. I didn't know about the "Goliath" race from 3.5E & onwards. That shows how out of the loop I am.....

Which Goliaths? Starcraft? :p

I'm thinking of a being that has the height of a human, but is proportionately as broad as dwarf. Do these exist? Thank You!!!

I'm wondering if the proliferation of so-called "Kung Fu" movies of the 1960's & 1970's didn't inspire the development of the D&D monk class. If that movie genre had never sprung up, would the monk even have been included in the 1E D&D Player's Handbook? And was it Gygax who created it, or...

There was a point in time where I remember associating the medieval/fantasy "monk" with this...... (....or similar 1938 "Robin Hood" Friar Tuck stereotype.....) Since D&D came out, however, my association has changed to this....... In terms of verisimilitude, which is a more...

Excellent link!! .................THANK YOU!!!

....that if I wanted to use a knife, the rules would push me to either a dagger or a dart.

I mean, as a character class. Please discuss. Thanks!!!
