Although multiple definitions exist for the Fae, probably the most auspicious one under the light of modern research would be: "Entities from or linked to a plane other than the Plane of Abiding which are created by, but not necessarily servants to, the gods." Members of the Fae are rarely called 'demons' by some texts, though true demons are not connected to the gods. The Faerie (sprites, dryads, nyads and alfar) -- created by Faenella -- are beautiful (but mischievous) tiny folk who inhabit some parts of Elanthia. Similar to Elves in shape and figure, the Faerie rarely exceed one foot but come in a variety of shapes and colors. The most sinister of the Fae are those connected to the dark gods. While all the Fae are mischievous, those connected to neutral and light gods can also do good, but the presence of a dark fae can only mean ill.
