Faeries

History
In the past when faeries were more populated they lived in rather large groups like a court. There were some on their own but mostly they stuck together. When ATOAD picks up the population has been thinned out to an extent. Faeries try to take care of their own and still live in small groups but nowhere near the glory that they used to have. In fact most people dispute whether faeries even exist in the World's End time line. Most of the faeries support this myth as it's safer for them because they're a commodity and powerful.

In recent history the Fae have created a tentative truce between the two sides. This truce was created between Cale and Resalia and the Seelie court. It took years to bring the truce into place and will take many more for it to become solid. It's a very fragile agreement due to the fact that both sides have been at war for lifetimes upon lifetimes.

The agreement finally became possible due to the fact that the light fae elders were replaced after their death by Elaine Camembert, their child. With Cale at the head of the Unseelie and her on the Seelie they were able to come to an accord and bring it into being. It took many years to even get it to that point.

The truce set up a cease fire between the two clans of Fae. Seelie and Unseelie were free to marry as they wanted though this is still uncommon. The territories were still kept mostly intact with less strict rule for travel. Before the truce it would have been difficult for the Fae to travel in each other's lands. After it became easier but is still considered dangerous in some areas. There were neutral areas set up where Fae could meet without fear. The Snap N' Crackle is one of these places.

The truce was sealed with children to keep the fae honest.

Psalm Raschera is a child of both sides. Cale being the father and Elaine being the mother. Psalm spends most of his time with the Dark Fae and the other spends his time with the light. Both can often be found in neutral territory.

Of course there were splinter group of Fae that splintered off from the groups that abided by the truce.

Powers
They tend to draw people in without even really trying, most of the time it's due to magnetic personality, sometimes it's just something about them that the person can't get passed. Depending on the person and the faery it can be overwhelming or just a mild fascination. They also can be very persuasive and cause a person to do things that they normally might not.

They live to a very old age, some claim they're immortal.

They can create glamors to disguise just about anything they want. This is something that's learned and perfected over time. The things they can do with glamors is a very long list and is basically only limited to their imagination. They can make themselves or other invisible. They can make an object look like something it isn't. They can change their looks to just about anything they want if they're good at it. They can make it look like there's something there that isn't actually there at all.

They are very quick and stronger than a human thought most of their strength relies on their magic and not their bodies.

If the faery is also a weilder it will amp their magic because they are gifted with some naturally.

Characteristics
Every faery has wings that they can hide.

They like sweet sugary things

They generally have some musical gift and this can differ from voice to instruments or both.

Their blood is prized by vampires because of its magical quality. In general this just amounts to the vampire getting an intense high off of their blood when they feed on them. Their blood mixed with other things can be marketed as a drug, I mention it because Iplan to use it in Ascension. In that use some people say that there are hallucinations, other users say they can create glamors that will briefly last depending on how often they use it. Basically the ultimate escape.

They tend to like very sugary food and drinks.

Weaknesses
Iron makes them weak.

Faeries can't lie, they can twist around their worse and most are fairly pro at this but they can't outright lie to someone.

There is a pressure point on their back that's hard to find, but someone trained could make the faery show their wings, among other magical abilities that could do the same.

Terminology

 * Seelie: A "good faery" really this just means they don't have the dark turn. They're still not safe but they aren't prone to malicious activity. the Camemberts are in this category.


 * Unseelie: The darker set. They have a dark turn to them that can present in various ways. Violence, manipulation, kidnapping or anything under the sun really. The Rascheras are Unseelie.
