Daemonfey The Daemonfey are a clan of half - fiend s and fey ' ri who were imprisoned for over five thousand years and were freed in recent times . Although the term actually describes the organization , it is sometimes also used to mean the descendants of House Dlardrageth , who have royal demonic blood , and conversely the term " fey ' ri " is sometimes used to describe the descendants of the other corrupted houses of Siluvanede . History . In the former elven realm of Arcorar ( located in what would become Cormanthyr ) , House Dlardrageth began summoning demons to produce half - field offspring in a bid to strengthen their bloodline and succeeded and were killed by other elves , who were enraged over this practice . The surviving half - fiend offspring of House Dlardrageth fled to Siluvanede , around - 5000 DR . They brought with them their practice of producing half - fiends into their new home , where it was more readily accepted than in Arcorar , though it was only practiced in secret . The background for this readiness was , that the elves from Siluvanede had a uniquely bad view on the Seldarine . The roots for this bad view was the deities actions during the Crown Wars , a series of wars between elven states that lasted for about 3000 years . Their show of violence during these wars , in particular the Descent , Corellon Larethian channeling his magic to turn all dark elves , regardless of allegiance , into drow and thus destroying Ilythiir , as well as their support for the first Elven Court ’ s proclamation , that amounted to a call for genocide against the Vyshaan as the most guilty party of the Crown Wars , caused the founders of Siluvanede and their descendants to view the Seldarine as a source of fear than anything else . This fear showed itself in persecution of religious institutions and practitioners and in the lowered threshold to accept alternative power sources like demon blood , which allowed the half - fiends to spread their affliction to the elven houses of Siluvanede . Houses with demon blood and thus with fey ' ri among their ranks were powerful and owned a lot of influence in their country . In - 4700 DR , Eaerlann was founded to counter Siluvanede . Eaerlann ' s power holders observed a gradual shift towards evil in Siluvanede and decided in - 4500 DR to attack the other country in order to prevent it from committing evil . During the initial attack , members of House Dlardrageth were killed . During Siluvanede ’ s retaliation which resulted in the Seven Citadels ' War , Sarya Dlardrageth and others were killed or imprisoned . The fey ’ ri fought on but were defeated , and Siluvanede was forcibly annexed by Eaerlann . The fey ’ ri were killed , or were collectively imprisoned into the Nameless Dungeon , though some managed to get away and blend into elven society founding new daemonfey houses . As mentioned above , they acted in Siluvanede with secrecy . They were very successful at this . The non - demon blooded High Mages of Siluvanede didn ' t realise that a meaningful part of their country ' s power holders descended from fiends before and during the 200 year long Seven Citadel ' s War . Only when their country was absorbed by their enemies , did they come behind it and fled with Myth Adofhaer to sidestep potential pursuit of responsibility . The daemonfey who were sealed in magical prisons in a perpetual state of near - slumber , where they remained until the destruction of Hellgate Keep in 1369 DR , which caused those imprisoned there to be freed . They then went on to free the remaining members of the organization with the goal to take revenge against the elves for the suffering and humiliation at their hands . Before their imprisonment , the daemonfey created large caches of its treasures , and many were looted while the daemonfey were in their prison , meaning that their magical artifacts were spread around Faerûn . Intentions . The daemonfey intend to expand their numbers by breeding sun elves with demon s in the High Forest . To achieve this they have begun to abduct sun elves from the Silver Marches in order to prepare them for breeding . The daemonfey are also interested in learning about modern Faerûn since they have been imprisoned for such a long time . Scouting parties are sent out across the Silver Marches , but they take great care not to be seen , for fear of alerting the elves of their presence . Allegiances . Sarya planned to seek the help of the Arcane Brotherhood in Luskan . The organization considered the drow to be degenerates , but this did not rule out their working together towards common goals , should this have been deemed necessary . Enemies . Although the daemonfey had a hatred for the elven race in general , they were particularly loathing of the moon and wood elves of the Silver Marches because they despised the elves having formed any kind of confederation . Boltholes . The boltholes are underground structures located throughout the North . They have existed for a very long time but most are now forgotten by all except the oldest surviving elves . Even so , these elves will likely assume them to be abandoned , not knowing of the recent re - emergence of the daemonfey . There is a bolthole located around twenty miles east of the Stone Stand in the northern High Forest .
