Fey

Fey in this campaign are heavily inspired by The Dresden Files books. The stats are still the normal Pathfinder stats. It’s just the fluff that is different. For starters, fey can’t lie. They can deceive and are legendary for their facility at deception, they can tell pieces of the truth, they can dance around the truth to lead someone to a wrong conclusion that is beneficial to them, but they cannot outright tell a lie. Should they swear to something they are bound to that oath and cannot break it. Each fey belongs to either Summer, Winter, or the Wyldfae. Many people believe that Summer (Seelie) is good and Winter (Unseelie) is evil, but that is a dangerous misunderstanding. Summer and Winter are each ruled over by a Queen. Titania is Queen of Summer and Mab is Queen of Winter. Each Queen has a Princess, a changeling daughter whose primary role is appointing new champions. The Queens choose mortal men to act as their agents in the mortal world, and the ritual that binds the mortal to the Queen’s service requires that he be physically intimate with the Princess. Winter is especially known for burning through champions quickly. The Wyldfae on the other hand have no such structure. They follow Herne the Hunstman, and make up the Wild Hunt. Half-fey are known as changelings. With the exception of the Princess who can exist in an in-between state for her whole life, eventually every changeling has to choose to either become fully mortal or fully fey at some point in their life. Some try to put the choice off as long as possible while others are quick to embrace either their mortal or fey side. This type of changeling is in no way related to the race known as changelings and they are not shapeshifters as a general rule.
