Fey

Trolls (Speculated though they are clearly classified as Ogroids)

**Fey** is a hypernym used to refer a number of creatures both bestial and sentient from the world of Tír na nÓg, the original social structure of their home-world is composed of two factions (or courts) the Seelie and Unseelie courts as they are called. The holdovers from the Conjunction of the Spheres (save for the rather dim trolls and nekkers) still consider themselves as members of one court or another, though they won't mention it unless directly asked even then they'll try to dance around the subject.

Fey are classified as Ogroids as quite a few monsters classified as Ogroids are in actuality Fey creatures. In addition to Necrophagic creatures.

## Physiology of Different Species

The appearance of a Fey differs based on its sub-species.

### High Fey (Medium Size)

#### Ancient High Fey

One of the original races created by The Source that would be recognized as the Fey, they participated on the side of the Protas during the Protas-Cosmic Horror War afterwards they were sent to the world of **Tír na nÓg** to live in peace for the rest of eternity. The **Ancient High Fey** were the dominant race of the realm who ruled over the lower races.

##### Archfey

A direct ancestor to the Ancient High Fey through time and evolution. Archfey unlike their cousins the elves, naturally evolved on **Tír na nÓg**, as such they are more magically gifted than their cousins and more mysterious. The Archfey experienced a period of time in which some of their members polymorphed into other races and species to mate incorporating new blood into the species resulting in Archfey families with other species and monstrous features that passed down the family line.

##### Elves (Technically)

Elves are the result of genetic modification on specimens of the Ancient High Fey primarily performed by the Grigori Loki to create a new race called the Aubha, one of the three 'new' races produced by the Grigori as an experiment to 'create life'.

### Greater Fey (Medium Size)

#### Aen Teg (Fair Folk)

Through Archfey are considered to be High Fey because of their diluted breeding, Aen Teg are better classified as Greater Fey instead of High Fey. While these beings are magically more gifted than their elvish parents they pale in comparison to their Archfey ancestors.

#### Ancient Greater Fey

One of the original races created by The Source that would be recognized as the Fey, they participated on the side of the Protas during the Protas-Cosmic Horror War afterwards they were sent to the world of **Tír na nÓg** to live in peace for the rest of eternity.

#### Arboreal

A more tree-like cousin species of Dryads, these Fey have an intrinsic link to the woods.

#### Blood Fey

A cross between a High Vampire and an Archfey.

#### Bone Fey

The Bone Fey are related to the much smaller Tooth Fairies. A branching ancestor to the **Ancient Greater Fey**, they are related to the Tooth Fairies.

#### Changeling

Members can be found in both courts. A cross between a human and an Archfey or a Changeling and a human can result in another Changeling.

#### Datanlolum Dwarves

Members can be found in both courts. A cross between a dwarf and an Archfey or a Dantanlolum Dwarf and a human can result in another Dantanlolum Dwarf.

#### Fae

Members can be found in both courts. The closest being in appearance to a human (save for pointed ears) before the appearance of humans in Tír na nÓg, they are around the same size as humans between four to six foot tall but they are blessed with unearthly grace and beauty of the Fey. **Fae** serve under the **Archfey** who they consider to be their betters. The **Fae** are the direct descendants of the **Ancient Greater Fey**.

#### Weepers aka Fairies

A human sized species of Fey that kidnap children to replace with their own offspring, if the offspring live long enough they will rejoin the population of Weepers. A branching ancestor of the Ancient Greater Fey.

### Lesser Fey (Small & Diminutive)

#### Brownie

Members of the Seelie Court as such they are citizens of the Kingdom of the Golden Oak Forest. They are about two feet tall in height and usually like to serve as housekeepers and caretakers of land and property.

#### Tooth Fairy

Members of the Unseelie Court as such they are citizens of the Kingdom of the Night Ash Forest. Although they are considered Lesser Fey they are in fact related to the Bone Fey which belongs to the Greater classification. They have an ancient pact with other beings to leave payment for teeth left under pillows, though they are not above scavenging teeth from corpses or if truly desperate the living. They are allowed by their cousin species the Bone Fey to partake in their harvests.

## Trivia

* The fey races of the Ambuns, the Arboreals, the Fae, the Sprites, and the Pixies are based on D&D Homebrew content.
* **Fey** are free to use in stories and articles, all I ask is that you honor the lore present and if you make one add their name and a link to this page.

## Notes

* The fey classification is a purely fanon creation as such there is no official proof of their existence in the Witcher works outside the fanon community.
* The existence of classification known as the **Fey** are a personal iteration inclusion for the fanon by Adalwulf of Aedirn, as such their existence in the fanon is not 'definitive' and is subject to the decision of inclusion in others head canons.
