Inspired by Celtic and European folklore, Pan's Labyrinth, Hell Boy, Wise Man's Fear, and other popular fey-touched fantasies, help develop the ripe and underutilized realm of Faerie for D&D. Lets create thought-provoking elements intended for the DM in a place of magic and impossibility.
Wander the verdancy of the Weal, Faerie’s green, flowering face with all its intoxicating wonders. Or plunge into the horror of the Wan, where ugliness and envy have bore a second country of caves and darkness. Risk the boundaries of the Eald, where the old spirits linger bitter and estranged, or dare the Warp, where the most beautiful fey are lured and twisted into prophetic hags.
In Faerie, poetry can move the sky to tears, and a song stir even a mountain into moving aside. Witness emotion take its place beside gravity as a tangible force, turning a lady’s favor into armor stronger than steel, and her scorn a poison deadlier than hemlock. Join in revelry that lasts for human lifetimes. Hear magic carry like a chortle on the wind. In Faerie, the heights of both honor and pettiness are defined. Overcome the tomfoolery of the base-born fey, and survive the ceremony and pomp of their royalty, fickle as children and powerful as demigods.
