Fae

Fae are creatures created from raw magic. They often begin as wisp-like masses of energy, and over time gain mass and complexity. With enough time, fae can take one of many forms, guided by their chief aspects and the existing folklore surrounding them. Some fae are capable of limited shapeshifting, depending on their aspect strengths.
