Are animals scared of the person in question? Do they tend to stare without blinking? Are basic societal norms seemingly difficult concepts for them to grasp? Is something about them just plain -wrong-? These all may be signs that the individual you are looking at was in fact replaced with a changeling.

I remember I once watched a British 80's movie very relevant to this thread. It was about a family living in some town in the countryside, the couple get a job in London and must spend the week there so they find a darling, adorable, Mary Poppins-like babysitter to take care of their kids while they are away. Turns out the babysitter was a batshit crazy, murderous dryad whose tree became addicted to be watered with human blood and was plotting to sacrifice the children. I wish I could remember the movie's title.

Where do you think you are?

>>51627129
Thank you anon, that was perfect

How do anons like to structure their fey kingdoms? Do you use fairy courts like the Seelie and Unseelie, queens included? Do you make elves rule over pixies and brownies? Or are all their names just words for the same thing?

>>51633760
Trying to build a world where fey exist in the place of angels / demons, because I'm tired of settings where the end game badguys are demons. My current thought process is, everything magical is fey-related, however minutely.

Fey exist in the Nightmare, the Dreamworld, parallel to ours. Our world and the Dream cross in places, and the smaller fey creatures are able to pass freely in these areas, giving rise to all sorts of good and bad folktales and religions. In some towns, the fairy folk command strange rules. "No one outside their homes between the hours of midnight and 2am," "You must close your eyes when passing through doorways," and the like.

When you cross from our world into the Dream, that's where you get into all sorts of madness. Those that come back are Dreamtouched, mages. Able to pull the Dream into our reality. Some who come back are physically changed, though rarely do these poor souls make it back. This is where most of our known monsters come from, at one point, they were human, or dog, or cat, or horse. But they went into the Nightmare and came back a Bullette, a Chimera, a Doppelganger. Vampires? A disease that came back from the Nightmare, twisted.

I'm still trying to figure out all the little details, but that's the gist of it so far.

>>51634250
Making magic spillover energy from the dreamworld is actually an interesting way to build a magic system. Also interesting explanation for chimeras
10/10 anon would play

OP here. Thanks so much for this thread everyone. I got so many good ideas for my campaign just by looking through these pictures, and saved like a hundred.

Also, the Fey really seem to love musical accompaniment, what's up with that? Always a guy in the background with a fiddle.

>>51635676
Why would you -not- have music playing in your faerie court? That just doesn't make sense. Related, please leave your cape at the door, having a fancier cape than the fiddler is quite rude and we will be forced to flay you for it.

>>51633760
I do like the Seelie and Unseelie courts, with the queens. Thing is i'm also toying with the idea that they're another kind of fiendish presence. Unlike Devils or Demons, but still not a totally good force. Like they skirt the line between fiend and celestial. They pay a tithe to devils to stay independent or something?

This is mostly inspired by the mechanics of the Oath of Ancients Paladin in D&D 5e. They have an ability that works against the "unholy" specifically fiends and fey.
