Anamnighean

Daughters of the storied soul.

• Lifespan: 600 years
• Diet: Magic and common fey fare
• Habitat: Fey forests
• Socioeconomic Status: Privileged oppressed

Anamnigheans are female-assigned beings with ephemeral wings and hair, flickering in and out of existence. Their eyes have no irises or pupils, but their sclera is many-colored.

Anamnigheans can see souls and the stories that go with them, but only after speaking to someone for at least an hour. Once they see a soul and its story, they can alter the story with a touch if they become close with that person or if that person offers them a piece of their soul. The more they do this, the more their own story changes, often retroactively.

Anamnigheans live partly nonlinearly, their stories changing as they use their powers, making them uncertain of what is real or what is not. Because of this, they often only live in small groups with one another, fashioning looping souls and stories that make no sense. When this happens, they merge into a single being.

They are often sought out for their magic, but few are able to pay the cost.

Banbas

Daughters of omen.

• Lifespan: 300 years
• Diet: Sparse fey fare
• Habitat: Faerie and nearby lands
• Socioeconomic Status: Feared

Banbases are white-skinned, white-haired female-assigned fey with dark blue symbols on their skin. The symbols change depending on what culture or community they are in, but always symbolize death.

Banbases can see souls. They can read omens of death, and they are born knowing seven of their own most probable deaths.

If someone is near death, a banbas can give them a simple kiss that ensures their soul will not linger long on the mortal plane (protecting them from undeath). If someone is newly born, they can look into their eyes and choose on potential death to protect them from. If someone has evaded a probable death, they can sense it. If someone has unnaturally defied death via infernal powers, they may know that person’s True Name if they see them.

Banbases live amongst the fey. They are feared and respected. Among their own communities, they have a simple hierarchy based on who is closest to death. They gather and learn funeral traditions from around the world, and they seek to keep the most ancient tales of death.

In imperial lands, they are feared as demons and harbingers of death.

C'hoar

Daughters of magical cycles.

• Lifespan : 300 years
• Diet: Common fey fare
• Habitat: Temperate forest
• Socioeconomic Status: Oppressed

The c'hoar are female-assigned beings who have one good eye and one missing eye. They are almost always born into sets of triplets, and their second eye is shared amongst them. With their second eye, they can see the cycles of energies around them. They otherwise look like common humans, with the same range of human appearance, save that their hair is always some shade of bluish white.

C'hoar are attuned to a specific cycles when they are born. If they are born into triplets, as almost all are, they will each have a different cycle. It will be one of the following:

• Ciracadian rhythm
• Lunar cycle
• Mana cycle
• Seasons
• Astrological
• Astronomical
• Social cycle(s)

Being attuned means they are always aware of it and how anyone and anything around them fits into it (AWA vs STH). The cycle they are attuned to also empowers them when they are at a certain point (determined by when they were born).

C'hoar are not native to the region. Many were enslaved or indentured and brought there, while others came while fleeing conflicts or exploitation in their part of the world. Some came seeking new opportunities. They are mostly an oppressed species in the colonized lands, being treated as second-class citizens with fewer rights, but some are rich and powerful.

What little of their culture they maintain from their homelands is mostly relegated to the clothing they wear (puffy dresses and lots of gauze and lace), the food they eat (as close to fresh fruits and vegetables as they can manage), and music (ancient songs in special song cycles).

Cinniuint

Thread-haired daughters of the tapestry. [fey]

• Lifespan: 300 years
• Diet: Common fey fare
• Habitat: Desert mountains
• Socioeconomic Status: Privileged oppressed

Cinniuints are female-assigned beings with long fingers and deep-pitted eyes. Their eyes are a deep reddish brown in hue, with no iris and only pinpoint pupils.

Cinniuints are born from the tapestry of fate, literally woven into being by other cinniuints. They have innate oracular powers, but every cinniuint is woven differently. Some have portents and prescience, some prophecy and oracular, others have various reading abilities, such as tasseomancy or palmistry. These powers are woven into them by their forebears, who know exactly what is needed. They believe only in the fate dictated by the tapestry, which they all help weave. Every cinniuint also has the power to inflict a fate upon one person a year.

Cinniuints live in caves in the mountains of the world. Each cave speaks to the others by weaving into the tapestry of fate. Their lives are entirely predestined. One in a thousand is woven an indistinct fate so that they may leave the caves on important tasks.

Maouez

One-eyed daughters of perspective.

• Lifespan: 300 years
• Diet: Common fey fare
• Habitat: Fey forests
• Socioeconomic Status: Privileged oppressed

Maouezes are one-eyed female-assigned beings with no hair on their heads. They have clawed hands.

Maouezes can see from the perspective of others if they have a piece of them. They take a bit of hair, teeth, skin, blood, etc. and close their eye, then see from the perspective of that person - physically and emotionally. If they do this often enough, they can mimic the voices, mannerisms, and more of the person.

Maouezes live in small communities in the forests of Faerie, led by the most eld of them, and they seek to understand the many living beings of their realm. They are very focused on deep understanding of the people they meet; they ask many questions and ask for pieces of them. Most people find them off-putting.

Mealladh

Daughters of sensuality.

• Lifespan: 300 years
• Diet: Emotion
• Habitat: Anywhere
• Socioeconomic Status: Privileged oppressed

Mealladh are pink-skinned succubi with a spine going down the middle of their heads. They have slender tails with a stinger on the end and small nubby horns on their foreheads.

All mealladh have the ability to glamour to make themselves more enticing to those they are interacting with; this usually heightens their own appearance, but if they know what someone is attracted to, they can give themselves that feature. They can smell emotions, which they feed off of.

Mealladh have small family units that usually do not involve the fathers/sperm donors of the children. They are very free and open, but they do not trust outsiders after millennia of exploitation by imperials. They often have roles in Faerie that allow them to be supportive and helpful, which lets them eat emotions safely.

Tanyow

Daughters of flame.

• Lifespan: 300 years
• Diet: Fey fare
• Habitat: Pastoral lands
• Socioeconomic Status: Oppressed

Tanyows are fey, female-assigned beings who burn with faeriefire from within. Their skin is at once both burning red and charred black, orange as embers and grey as smoke. Their hair is flame itself, but illusory and dancing. And their eyes glow like tiny stars.

Tanyows are born only into and from flame. They are immune to heat and flame, smoke and ash. If fire is near, they may dance with it and command it. They can create faeriefire with a snap of their fingers. When they speak, there’s always an echo like the crackle of flame.

Tanyows live in small communities led by ancient and powerful witches. Their culture focuses on the bonfire ceremonies of early summer and the stories of flame and ash, legends and myths, any story of fire. They gather them from around the world and syncretize them in burning blazes.

In imperial lands, they are seen as demons and witches.

Other powers may be possible. Consult the GM or ancient fairy tales.

Yrothreans live in Faerie in a city called Na Deirfiúracha. They are led by a coven of ancient witches who remember the days Yrothre walked among them (she has long been lost in legend and dream). They dream dreams of power, answer only to The Queen of All Faerie, and are attuned to the magic and legends of the world.

Those in the imperial core are usually there for some mysterious purpose.
