The feytouched was a creation of mine that (as we all know) didn't make it into the MM2. When I spoke to the interviewer about it, I had asked him to double-check the monsters I referenced since I hadn't seen a final cut of which monsters made it into the book.
Feytouched was not a template but the (what I hoped to be) first in a line of races like the planetouched aasimar or the chaond. It seemed to me that with so many fey creatures and so many woodland races, that there would have to be many fey-blooded offspring out there. The feytouched I wrote was to be a dryad related humanoid (what happens when a dryad and her charmed men go behind closed doors).
