Fairy
Basic Information
Fairies are a type of spirit which, depending on which mythological source you ask, can be nature spirits, spirits of the dead, former angels who allied neither with Heaven nor with Hell, former pagan deities, and so forth. They are generally said to be highly capricious but bound by the letter of their promises. Cold iron is said to repel them. In more modern times, they generally stay out of the sight of humans, but they can be very dangerous to trespassers and those who offend them, even accidentally.

Game and Story Use
- Their capricious nature and supernatural powers make fairies great antagonists - especially if the PCs need to outwit the fairy instead of besting it in combat (which may be next to impossible).
