Sure. But do you have any idea what that might mean, other than some "fun math"?
Does it have to have a meaning, beyond "Math is Power"? In the really old magical systems, important numbers have weight, and squaring a number is multiplying it by itself. That's like standing between two mirrors, or going Super Saiyan. It brings out a number's inner power. That's why you get "seventh son of a seventh son" type deals.

I can totally see mordons doing number magic based on the power of math and not any sort of "meaning" to the numbers.
 

I hope we see more stat blocks for archfey, maybe in the Monster Manual! I think it'd be a good idea for WoTC to put out a supplement of archfey stat blocks, with big names like the Queen of Air and Darkness!

I like that idea a lot. Maybe we could get stat blocks for Oberon, Titania, and Queen Mab (along with everyone else mentioned in The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke).

One of the stated goals of the new MM is to provide viable options for all q4 Creature types across all CR: so some new Fey to fill the gaps seems plausible.
 

Maybe toss a single background in to support that, then? Even if a modern Earthling is a farmer on Earth, they're going to be quite different from one who grew up in a fantasy world.

Let's hope he's taken care of by a power entity then, because dropping a regular kid ranting about wifi, iPhone and TV in the Realms is a sure way to get into an asylum. Or worse, they drop a kid with an engineering degree and Faerun starts to get an industrial revolution (MC Planck's world of prime remembrance...)

I feel like folks in the Forgotten Realms would be fine with someone waving around strange (non-functional) artifacts and claiming to come from another world.

"Second one this week, I reckon."

Of all the Realms Shaking Events, this is the one that'll do the joint in.
