Faerie Summoning






































So thinking of making faerie monsters fit in classes like demons for summoning, mass battles, levels and stuff - make faerie kind more like demons, elements and other major planar beings. Plus faerie summoning should b a thing. Bright and dark courts magicians might be very different. Faerie magic as a school of magic is pretty good. I did a elf spell list once

Would mean statting up more faerie types or something

Earth born - very long lived, naturally belong to earth, can use iron
Faerie born - harmed by magic or iron, nut subject to time, cannot heal on earth

Addicts get hooked on faerie or elf or goblin food from beyond with a failed saving throw per meal. If resist they have a longing for it again and some melancholy and funny dreams. If you fail you begin to feel ill outside the faerie world. Fey folk might let you in if you serve them. You gt a save every century to escape. They have a antidote. Each night away from a fairy location, leyline, power nodes or fairyland they lose a d4 HP.

d10 I escaped from elf land table
1 As useless old person elves don't want
2 Escaped in the far future then had to come back in time, phew it was tough
3 Lost in a d4 other dimensions before escape
4 Heroically earned your freedom or something like that
5 Left behind a faerie family, partner died children hate you and now adult
6 Priests saved you and cured your curse but you owe them (might have quest or oath)

7 You discovered how to use drugs and alcohol to resist elf lands call*
8 You drown yourself in body pleasures and gluttony to resist elf lands clutches*
9 You starve yourself, everything tastes like excrement, weak, scrawny, emaciated*
10 Self torture and flagellation help sooth your elf cravings*
