See also: Plane of Faerie

Fey is a type of creature, or "creature type". Fey, also known as faeries, are usually humanoid in form, and are typified as having supernatural abilities and a connection to nature or to some other force or place.^[1]

"Fey are magical creatures closely tied to the forces of nature. They dwell in twilight groves and misty forests. In some worlds, they are closely tied to the Feywild, also called the Plane of Faerie. Some are also found in the Outer Planes, particularly the planes of Arborea and the Beastlands. Fey include dryads, pixies, and satyrs."^[2]

Ecology

Environment

Fey can dwell in almost any environment, from the depths of the oceans, to the cities, to other planes of existence. Typically, however, they're associated with the woodlands, where they share the terrain with elves, druids, werebears, and other creatures. There are also magical places hidden deep in the heart of the wood, "deep sylvan" realms where only the faerie folk know how to travel. Others are rare visitors to these places, though some few stumble in on occasion, losing their senses of direction and time. Avatars of the sylvan gods may appear on special occasions below earthy mounds marked by faerie rings. Titania's magic helps maintain these special places.

Faerie lands include the Seelie Court and the Court of Rings. The Plane of Faerie as described in the third edition Manual of the Planes is a land of eternal twilight coexistent with the Material Plane. In the fourth edition of the D&D game, the plane of Faerie is also known as the Feywild.

Typical physical characteristics

Fey possess a wide variety of shapes and sizes, too many to be easily summarized, although an elflike appearance or characteristics of plant life are common, as are insectoid wings.

Alignment

Fey may possess any alignment, though chaotic alignments are common. Fey are broadly divided between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Seelie fey are considered good and Unseelie fey are considered evil, though both are unconcerned with the wants and needs of mortals. Seelie Court fey often lure and kidnap mortals to dally with them romantically or invite them to their feasts, and Unseelie Court fey may bring them to their own feasts, as the main course.

Society

Many fey are wanderers or live alone, but many others live in families or houses, known as kelir in the Sylvan tongue. Fey families are generally matriarchal.

Both the Seelie and Unseelie Courts feature houses (or kelir) of noble fey, who are often embroiled with feuds between them. The house that loses a feud may find itself banished from fey society; in the Unseelie Court, losing houses may be slaughtered. Fey mothers sometimes leave their children with mortals to protect them or send their young out on lengthy quests to save them from being used as pawns. Fey feuds may last hundreds or even thousands of years.

Fey, who often live for millennia, see time as cyclical, with birth and death being only stages in the great circle. Fey can predict their natural deaths several decades in advance, and celebrate their last years before undergoing the Rite of Ultimate Passage, in which their knowledge is ceremonially passed down to their heirs.

Religion

Good and neutral fey typically worship Ehlonna or the Seelie Court. Wicked fey often worship the Queen of Air and Darkness.

In the early spring the power of Faerie runs high, and the elves celebrate the holiday of Faerieluck to remind themselves of their ancient kinship with the fey.

Language

Fey speak Sylvan.

History

Types of fey

Atomie

The atomie is the lightest and quickest of all the sprites, standing at less than one foot tall. An atomie has elven features, with pale skin with a hint of woodland green, and four dragonfly-like wings. An atomie's voice is high-pitched, sounding like the buzzing of a bee. Atomies have magical abilities, and sometimes carry weapons as well. Upon hearing an intruder, atomies hide and try to make the intruder go away, using false lights, clattering voices, and pesky, summoned insects. Atomies live in forests, in the upper branches of old hardwood trees, one family per tree. Each family hollows out a series of tiny rooms, decorating with walnut chairs, woven pine needle rugs, acorn dishes, and the like. A network of balconies, landings, and rope bridges connects the dwellings, forming a village high above the forest floor. Atomies seldom bother with outsiders.

The atomie first appeared in the first edition Monster Manual II (1983).^[3] It appeared in the second edition for the Greyhawk setting in the Monstrous Compendium Greyhawk Appendix (1990) under the "sprite" entry.,^[4] the Monstrous Manual (1993).^[5]

Banshrae are usually malevolent fey. They are insectoid-featured, but more accurately resemble the extra terrestrials commonly known as greys, but with more humanoid features given to them in their general structure including breasts on their females. Mouthless, the banshraes speak telepathically and are unable to sing or use wind instruments but are said to love them both and to be able to be pacified by them. Oddly, their description in the Monster Manual still says they use blowguns for much of their attacking.

The banshrae first appeared in the third edition in Monster Manual V (2007). The banshrae appeared in the fourth edition Monster Manual (2008).^[9]

+'''Fey''' is a type of creature, or "creature type". Fey, also known as faeries, are usually humanoid in form, and are typified as having supernatural abilities and a connection to nature or to some other force or place.{{csb|MM3.5e||309}}
+{{quoted text|Fey are magical creatures closely tied to the forces of nature. They dwell in twilight groves and misty forests. In some worlds, they are closely tied to the [[Feywild]], also called the Plane of Faerie. Some are also found in the [[Outer Planes]], particularly the planes of [[Arborea]] and the [[Beastlands]]. Fey include [[dryad]]s, [[pixie]]s, and [[satyr]]s.|{{csb|MM5e||Introduction: Statistics}} }}
+== Ecology ==
-===Environment===
+=== Environment ===
 Fey can dwell in almost any environment, from the depths of the oceans, to the cities, to other planes of existence. Typically, however, they're associated with the woodlands, where they share the terrain with [[elf|elves]], druids, [[werebears]], and other creatures. There are also magical places hidden deep in the heart of the wood, "deep sylvan" realms where only the faerie folk know how to travel. Others are rare visitors to these places, though some few stumble in on occasion, losing their senses of direction and time. Avatars of the sylvan gods may appear on special occasions below earthy mounds marked by faerie rings. [[Titania]]'s magic helps maintain these special places.
-Faerie lands include the [[Seelie Court]] and the [[Court of Rings]]. The Plane of Faerie as described in the 3rd edition ''Manual of the Planes'' is a land of eternal twilight coexistent with the [[Prime Material Plane]]. In the 4th edition of the D&D game, the plane of Faerie is also known as the Feywild.

-===Typical physical characteristics===
+=== Typical physical characteristics ===
 Fey possess a wide variety of shapes and sizes, too many to be easily summarized, although an elflike appearance or characteristics of plant life are common, as are insectoid wings.
-===Alignment===
+=== Alignment ===
 Fey may possess any alignment, though chaotic alignments are common. Fey are broadly divided between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Seelie fey are considered good and Unseelie fey are considered evil, though both are unconcerned with the wants and needs of mortals. Seelie Court fey often lure and kidnap mortals to dally with them romantically or invite them to their feasts, and Unseelie Court fey may bring them to their own feasts, as the main course.
-==Society==
+== Society ==
 Many fey are wanderers or live alone, but many others live in families or houses, known as ''kelir'' in the Sylvan tongue. Fey families are generally matriarchal.
-Both the Seelie and Unseelie Courts feature houses (or ''kelir'') of noble fey, who are often embroiled with feuds between them. The house that loses a feud may find itself banished from fey society; in the Unseelie Court, losing houses may be slaughtered. Fey mothers sometimes leave their children with mortals to protect them, or send their young out on lengthy quests in order to save them from being used as pawns. Fey feuds may last hundreds or even thousands of years.

Fey feuds may last hundreds or even thousands of years.
 Fey, who often live for millennia, see time as cyclical, with birth and death being only stages in the great circle. Fey can predict their natural deaths several decades in advance, and celebrate their last years before undergoing the Rite of Ultimate Passage, in which their knowledge is ceremonially passed down to their heirs.
-===Religion===
+=== Religion ===
 Good and neutral fey typically worship [[Ehlonna]] or the [[Seelie Court]]. Wicked fey often worship the [[Queen of Air and Darkness]].
 In the early spring the power of Faerie runs high, and the elves celebrate the holiday of [[Faerieluck]] to remind themselves of their ancient kinship with the fey.

 === Atomie ===
-The atomie is the lightest and quickest of all the sprites, standing at less than one foot tall. An atomie has elven features, with pale skin with a hint of woodland green, and four dragonfly-like wings. An atomie's voice is high-pitched, sounding like the buzzing of a bee. Atomies have magical abilities, and sometimes carry weapons as well. Upon hearing an intruder, atomies hide and try to make the intruder go away, using false lights, clattering voices, and pesky, summoned insects. Atomies live in forests, in the upper branches of old hardwood trees, one family per tree. Each family hollows out a series of tiny rooms, decorating with walnut chairs, woven pine needle rugs, acorn dishes, and the like. A network of balconies, landings, and rope bridges connects the dwellings, forming a village high above the forest floor. Atomies seldom bother with outsiders.

 === Banshrae ===
-Banshrae are usually malevolent fey. They are insectoid-featured, but more accurately resemble the extra terrestrials commonly known as [[grey alien|greys]], but with more humanoid features given to them in their general structure including breasts on their females. Mouthless, the banshraes speak telepathically and are unable to sing or use wind instruments but are said to love them both and to be able to be pacified by them. Oddly, their description in the Monster Manual still says they use blowguns for much of their attacking.

+:Spirits of the land inhabit certain geographic areas, and lie in invisible dormancy until they feel the area they guard is threatened, in which case they rise to defend it. Originally appearing in the [[Dark Sun]] [[campaign setting]], they have since been reintroduced to third edition ''D&D'', along with several other creatures from Dark Sun, in the ''[[Monster Manual II]]''. Spirits of the land, in their natural form, are invisible and intangible. When it wishes to be seen it can manifest as a humanoid, animal, or elemental of its own size and composed of one particular element. The illustration of one in the ''Monster Manual II'' shows it in the form of a [[bear]] made out of wood and earth.
