Beautiful work Raven,
Kind of stumbled into your story by accident. I'm currently playing a pixie in a friends game and was looking for some new ideas for pranks to pull on the party and or npc's he throws at us when this thread came up. Well, I was fascinated by your storytelling and the depth you went into to arrive at your encounters (not even close to that much work done in our little group) and kept reading even though it wasn't what I’m looking for. I totally agree with jester when he said "I have a funny feeling that you're a damn fine dm".
Before I go I know this may be off topic slightly (first time posting) however if you or anyone else that reads this has some ideas, knows good sites, or knows of some good book to get ideas for a slightly whimsical pixie for in game pranks let me know. Depending on if there is any response I’ll go through some of the better ones that I’ve already done. Well to rap it up Raven, Keep up the good work!

Hey Raven Crowking; fantastic work you do here. Absolutely fantastic. I'll be using much of it very soon, although I think I'll put a few more opportunities to just "get the out, but have to start all over again" by taking well-marked branches of the path leading out.
I have a very local campaign (that is, the setting is geographically small), and I was wondering something for using these characters and encounters in such a campaign: How would you change them if they had to be vaguely reusable after the first adventure, or a possibly returned to by the heroes (not at the DM's plan)?
For example, I was thinking that after I introduce the Three Heads in a Well within the context of the plot you've lined up, I'll want the players to be able to return there if they can retrace their steps. So for a second hook for the Three Heads in a Well, I'm going to put the three wandering, headless bodies in other feytouched locations on my island setting. I'll need something more convoluted than just bringing them back to the well, but do you see what I'm thinking?

Raven,
First of all thanks for replying,
I looked up info on the iambic pentameter as you advised and I see where your going, implementing it's use will take some time of course but I think it will help flush out my char. As far as mid summer night dream goes, it's my favorite play by Shakespeare, seen and read it many times and i have to admit some of my play style with this char is based on puck.
I've been trying to keep with the meaningful pranks so far. As far as ongoing pranks go our barbarian has a "magic intelligent" sword that keeps criticizing his bloodthirsty nature (due to a liberal use of ventriloquism) which he is also afraid to get rid of due to some quick note passing to the dm along with role-playing. Our bard has also had a few bad run ins due to a few pranks relating to his womanizing. Liberal use of the various illusion spells have also been used on greedy char's in and out of the party ranging from embarrassment to death. I've got to admit some of the pranks have been kind of random especially since I’ve been running out of good ideas, yet none the less fun to play. The victims idea is a good one for our barbarian which i just may use in the next game we play
. I never really thought about the whole "faerie "tricks" are actually help" concept and may also start using that too, he is considered good after all .
Well thanks again raven, until next time
