In the setting, I've established fey as physiologically transient, they take on "veils" of matter and develop them slowly over eons, often layering one on top of another, in a subconscious form of self-actualization. So over ages you get treants, satyrs, beast-men, sprites, etc. (Elves are different, they were shaped by Pan to resemble men). The "forbidden ways" that the Lord of Fall has turned to was that at the end of the Black Sabbath he cast one of the cavorting fey into the fire, then peeled and twisted his veil (e.g., his flesh) and turned him into a kind of hellish imp. Instead of being horrified, the fey seemed to enjoy it. Changing the veil of another is supposed to be Pan's thing, and he never did it like that.On top of that, the fae PC is changing into something more deadly than he has been and he doesn't know why, and I saw later he recorded in his in-game journal "I think I am turning into a monster."So I think you are really on to something, and on top of that I think it will go well with what is happening in-game.I think I'll be ok. I taught them to play, and we try to blur the lines between my turf and theirs. I do want it to be interesting, though. I just had a thought... what if I tie it in with the elves/fey's Sanity? Instead of it being, "if something changes your body, you lose sanity", make it "if your Sanity sits too low for too long, you start to change". I'll have to think about that.Slowly. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> But I'll keep you posted.</blockquote>
