More than just stories . . .
Dragons roar, scour their enemies with elemental blasts, and crush bones beneath their
muscled, reptilian heels. The undead drain the very life from the living, either by touch, by bite,
or by arcane means. Goblins constantly harass the good folks of the world; they spring forth from
caves and dark forests, their poorly kept and rusted weapons thirsting for chaos, blood, and war.
Aberrant beings, alien in shape and thought, inspire madness with their mere presence. Giants
stalk the land in defiance of the gods and angels that look down upon it.
And yet for all the rage and horror of these monstrosities there is an equally ominous, yet
infinitely more subtle, threat to mankind the fey. Creatures of story and legend, fey monsters
are meant to terrorize children into eating their beets and going to sleep, but every village elder,
every elf, every druid, and huntsman knows the truth. These stories, tales of vicious spriggans
and alluring sidhe, spring from a well of truth.
Fey are embodiments of emotion, and wicked fey are cruelty, lust, anger, and mischief
given form. From the frightening dullahan dreadknights to the malicious vodnik bog troll, these
pages offer forth the most dangerous the Fey Realm has to offer not the mindless beasts or
wild spirits, but the cunning and cruel twisted fey races, the clans of the Fey Realm.

The fey realm is a reflection of the natural world.


Therefore, for every city raised, every forest cleared, every
animal hunted down, there is an equal reaction in the fey
realm. Hence the nightshade wisp. Nightshades serve as
natures vengeance-seekers. These cold, efficient beings
are single-minded in their assault on those they deem
defilers. To this end, Nightshades are horribly
calculating foes. They do not surrender, nor do
they seem to comprehend the notion of
mercy. Lumberjacks, hunters, and miners often share
hushed stories of sudden, savage nightshade raids around
the campfire.
Nightshade wisps derive more than their name
from the poisonous flower, they share many plant-like
physiological traits as well. For example, Nightshades are
genderless, with all members appearing androgynous.
Additionally, they produce the poison that coats their
weapons.
Sages conjecture that these beings must operate at
the whim of some higher power, for it is not known how
they assign targets or plan attacks.
