The Fae are a mystical and mostly sedentary race, not wishing to travel far from the place they call home. This is because they are closely tied to a certain aspect of nature and usually a location as well. This affinity for location can be broad, such as a forest, lake, or mountain range. Or it can be as specific as "this boulder" or "this tree". They are also a solitary people, not usually congregating in large settlements. Instead they will either form small encampments or live on their own. The exception to this is the city of Astel, where all Fae come together in the jewel of Vespirian.

Fae do not appear to age, or if they do it's very slowly. It is said that they are children of the Archfey and born from the rocks, trees, waters, or skies. For this reason, they all worship and follow the specific Archfey to whom they claim their birth.

There are many groups of Fae that fall into one of these more specific categories:

Dryad: A Fae tied to the land (trees or earth). They usually appear to embody plants, rocks, or dirt and tend to be the most sedentary of the Fae.

Nyad: A Fae tied to water (lakes, rivers, or rain). Nyads are usually blue or green in color or have patches of scales or kelp (or other aquatic plants) on them. Nyads tied to rivers or especially rain have a tendency to travel a bit more.

Faeries/Pixies: Called by either name Faeries are tied to the sky and therefore are the exception among the other Fae races in that they are nomadic and love to travel and explore. They tend to be the most similar to other races, appearing to be mostly human, but with pointed ears, wings, and sometimes horns.
