Fated to die (archaic except in Scotland)2. Presaging death.  (obsolete)3. Accursed (obsolete)4. Feeble (obsolete)5. Disordered in mind like one about to die; possessing or displaying magical, fairylike, or unearthly qualities. Now frequently used ironically, in sense ‘affected, whimsy’.More commonly available, dictionary.com gives:1. doomed (British Dialect)2. appearing to be under a spell (chiefly Scottish)3. Supernatural; unreal; enchanted (elves, fairies, and other fey creatures)4. being in unnaturally high spirits5. whimsical, strange, otherworldlyOn google scholar, fey seems to be regularly used for the fairy: <a href="https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C41&as_ylo=2021&q=fey+fairy&btnG=" target="_blank">Google Scholar</a>   In that light, it doesn't seem that heinous to me for a 5e game book, where fey is the term the game uses, to use it.</blockquote>
