The Land of Fairies

In honor of David Bowie, in a week I will be sending Simon back home for a visit. Which means, anybody else who would like to can also come. I will do an introduction post on the in-game board when it's ready to happen, but for now, here is this information:

- Simon's home is the realm of Fairyland, it has many names and none of them are wrong.

- Fairyland is home to many species of mystical beings. From sprites to brownies to unicorns to dragons. They all exist within. (Things like vampires and werewolves do not, though. Those are Earth things. If you have questions about distinction, please ask. The medieval rules for the other creatures can be applied, for fairies, I will put them here)

- Fairies, like Simon, are the ruling class. They are the highest of the beings, though most are not actual royalty.

- There are very few partial blood creatures within this realm.

- Most of the denizens of Fairyland are okay with humans, but Fairies, in general, are not. They see them as the lowest of the low. Trash. Boring.

-- of course, fairies see most creatures as far below them.

- A fairy's kiss is a bad thing for any non-magical being to receive. It is addictive, and has driven some to madness, and even occasionally to death. (If you are not sure if your character would be victim to this, you can ask. I kind of think it might be fun to have a fairy kiss addict, though Simon would not be able to alleviate that need) It should also be noted that fairies are a highly attractive race, humans are naturally very drawn to them.

- A fairy cannot lie, but that does not mean they can't skirt the truth. They are very clever.

- Fairies are extremely drawn to sweets and shiny objects.

- Fairies are highly inquisitive.

- Fairies enjoy making deals, never make a deal with a fairy unless you're sure of the terms. Never say "thank you" to a fairy, it implies you owe them something. This also goes for "I owe you" and other such phrases. If you accept food or gift from a fairy, make sure that it's given without strings.

- Fairyland is vast and beautiful and is connected to the mortal plane through many portals. There are some modern things in Fairyland, but none of it will be made of cold iron.

- Cold iron is a bane to fairies . If you have anything made of it, it will not make the journey onto this world. (this is pure iron, not steel) Cold iron weapons cause a particularly large amount of damage to them.


Um. That's all I can think of. If anybody has anything else, ask or let me know and I'll add it to this.
