Considering Druids are the defacto people who deal with Fey wouldn't it be kinda stupid to say not to trust their druidcraft? I mean, at least the Druids know what Fey are, how to differentiate and defer to them, what they do etc. Now, sorcerers, paladins, even rangers, those would be completely untrustworthy, while fighters and barbarians might just as well peace the hell out and run off. While the advice is solid, druids are the one group of people you wouldn't tell it to, specifically because they are the one group of people who know that by heart as well as how to deal with fey (their do's and dont's, their taboos, their interactions etc).

@@lawaern3474 The druids might be of the 'material plane' but, even ignoring the Fey circle or whatever it's called, the Feywild is mostly the 'Plane of Nature' in a way.

Sure, they might not walk the feywild as we would walk in a road, but if ANYONE knows about the kind of trickery fey are up to, it would be the Druids. It's kinda their shtick, really.

Story time: our group had run into a particularly nasty manticore who promptly kicked our hides six ways from Sunday, almost bringing about a tpk. I barely managed to take it out but I was near death myself with no more allies to lend some assistance. I started making my way back to town rolling constitution saves every so often. Eventually I failed one and the DM started having me roll death saves. Two fails later I find myself waking up in a dwarf encampment with a medic treating my wounds. Apparently a patrol had spotted some dancing lights in the distance and went over to investigate finding me laying under them critically wounded but miraculously stable. They left me to rest and a successful perception check later the DM pointed out a pixie lounging on top of a lamp smiling down at me. Turns out this little one had developed a hardcore crush on my character and had been subtly helping me and my companions throughout the campaign.

Gotta agree with the comments on hags, in general they're a fun concept. My first ever Pathfinder character was a Changling summoner, which is important because in Pathfinder, Changelings are the offsprings of Hags, and eventually in a changling's life, they will hear the calls of their mother hag, to bring them back to their mothers and become hags themselves.

Concept: a darkling bard, who has learned to utilize the non-visual side of the arts. Music, oral storytelling and poetry, cooking, and so on. Sure, visual beauty is still tempting, but this individual has learned how to create art without relying on sight. And even then, some art could definitely be made visually that takes advantage of how darkvision functions for its shading and black and white color palette. If darklings were a playable race this could even be a great PC. I would probably play this if I wasn't currently semi-friendless and in the middle of a campaign with people I haven't talked to since 2020. Haha.

Love these long videos!!

Well timed video, given the recent release of Magic: The Gathering's newest set, Throne of Eldraine. You even used a bunch of art from the set. Right on. I think what's always tripped me up about the Fey is how...arbitrary the category is, from a mythological perspective. Which makes sense, given that the idea of neatly categorized supernatural beings is a modern convention, at odds with the more fluid definition of folklore. In the old days, the difference between a fairy, a ghost, a vampire, a witch, and a werewolf were, at best, vague and perhaps unimportant. What I'd like to see is more attention paid to the deliberately non-technical, more fantastical aspects of fairies in the game. The idea that fairies can be confused by a person wearing their clothes backwards or inside out, or get warded off by iron nails in one's pockets or driven into a door. Where Unseelie fey (or, for that matter, giant type creatures like trolls or ogres) being tormented by the sound of music (giving a reason for even a non-Bard to take proficiency in a musical instrument). Or how fairies often have very esoteric rules that they follow and that they expect mortals to follow, with dire consequences for a failure of each. A Fey rider who cannot be chased down, but must instead be asked to stop. Mortals being entangled by magical obligations if they accept gifts from the fey. A fey who is rendered powerless by someone knowing their True Name, or else making the guessing of the True Name a part of whatever deal they make with a mortal.

I played as an Eladrin in one version of D&D getting fey step on a character at level 1 was god tier... and access to great spear proficiency essentially made it one of the best backup dps (in the early game), combined with another class that gave shadow step and you had an extremely versatile player character that could do the whole monk movement thing while hitting like a truck.

To answer your question about sprite arrow poison, it would probably make more sense to check if you got poisoned *after* a single volley, as multiple arrows hitting you would knock you out and wake you up at the same time except for the last one fired

Great video, like you i also have a fascination with the Hags of D&D. At first i thought Hags would be generic, boring, witches, but they are among my favourite creatures.

"Look out, they are coming through; Thunder the Quickling. Look out, they have an attitude; Thunder the Quickling. Thunder, they can really move. Thunder has a questionable attitude?" More or less that bit above this line is the long full name of a character I made that is a "X" level monk Quickling, which by the way is quicker than a Tabaxi of similar build. On the sheet their spd was like 200 just about so yes out running is not really an option at this point.

Gotta say. I like that you have song titles from classic rock and metal for the tiers.

The weirdest part about the Eladrin to me is that the monster entry for them is fey, but the player character Eladrin race is humanoid.

It is for mechanics, that's why there are no large races or tiny races.

Love your rankings! Will you do a construct ranking?

Thanks for the video, a learn a lot

I have a rogue who was level 2 and I wanted to cross class into warlock. My rogue was a half elf raised in the sewers of a huge city by a goblin. Because he was poorer then poor all he wants is money. So when he learns about this magic Apple that cures all sickness he pretends to have some. Meeting a odd but friendly enough merchant, with a abnormally large smile, he tricks him into buying the fake apples. 2 days later he and his party end up in the fay wild and Nathair Sgiathach a fairy dragon archfey. The dragon is very upset about being lied to and basically just tells my half elf “you belong to me now and I’ll be in touch.” After making me try out my new magic on a tree (leading to a very pissed off tree lady trying to kill us.) my character loves his power but is terrified of what this bond will lead to.

I credit you for the creation of my new satyr npc Glen Quagshire gigitty gigitty goo

You should make a video ranking the different types of monsters based what groups tend to have better stats in your rankings.
