Faeries are tiny, sparkling creatures with wings, the native inhabitants of the lands of Arcadia. Being magical creatures by nature, they are very intelligent and possess enormous aptitude for spells. Faeries easily deflect energy and light-based attacks, and their magical sight sees the invisible. That said, faeries are very weak and fragile, and therefore easily succumb to poison and disease, and cold iron burns them.

Every faerie has access to the magic of their race -- faerie fire and faerie fog. In combat, faeries can blink: escaping an opponent's attacks with rapid teleports. Faeries make excellent mages and decent hybrid classes -- for example, paladins and anti-paladins.

Cold iron pins them down, though: a faerie who wears or wields anything made of iron or steel cannot blink, unless something makes them resistant to iron.
