 ====== The Feywild ======
+The Feywild, also known as the plane of Faerie, existed as an "echo" of the Prime Material Plane. It was from here that the fey originated, giving the Feywild its name, and it was also a place of unusually potent magic.
+Sometimes called “the dreaming” this world is that of constant and never-ending change. Things are just always going to be churning and warping here. Like sand against the tide. Allies will become enemies, strange bedfellows will be made, and honor, beauty, and love will make a difference. It is like a soap opera here. There is no security. The slightest of circumstances can transform a king into a peasant. Chaos and discord rule the universe. Adapt or die.
+The Feywild is connected
+to the Material Plane in several ways. Fey
+Crossings can be found in dense forests populated
+by elves or gnomes, the trees subtly offering a
+path to the faerie realm for those who know how
+to seek it. Fairy rings—circles of mushrooms—are
+often signs of places where the veil between
+worlds is thin and can be lifted. Finally, portals to
+the Feywild can be created and held by those with
+enough skill in arcane magic.
+===== Albion =====
+The island nation of [[Albion]] is the home of the true Fey elves - sometimes called the Eladrin. It exists in both the Prime Material Plane and the Feywild simultaneously. If an elf born of Albion should leave, they forfeit their eternal youth and are destined to grow old and die. However, there are always those driven by poverty, boredom, or love to give up their birthright.
 ===== The Summer Court =====
+Seelie fey are followers of Titania, the queen of the Summer Court. There are several tenants of this court.
+  * **Death before dishonor:** honor is the most important virtue, the source of all glory.
+  * **Love Conquers all:** love lies at the heart of the dreaming. True love transcends all and epitomizes what it means to be Seelie.
+  * **Beauty is life:** beauty is a timeless, objective quality that, while it cannot be defined, is always recognized for itself.
+  * **Never forget a debt:** one gift deserves another. The recipient of a gift is obliged to return the favor.

 ===== The Winter Court =====
+Unseelie fey follow the Queen of Air and Darkness. They struggle against the Seelie fey. They eschew beauty and health, and instead revel in that which is gothic, diseased, and scarred.
+  * **Change is good:** security does not exist. The slightest of circumstances can transform a king into a peasant. Chaos and discord rule the universe. Adapt or die.
+  * **Glamour is free:** glamour is worthless unless used. Acquire it by any means possible, and you will never be without a constant supply.
+  * **Honor is a lie:** honor has no place in the dreaming It is a fairy tale constructed to cover the essential emptiness behind most traditions.
+  * **Passion before duty:** passion is the truest state of the fae spirit. Follow your instincts and act on your impulses. Live life to the fullest without regard to the consequences, they will come about regardless of what you do. Youth passes quickly, so have fun while you can. Death can come at any time, so live without regret.
