This is probably a silly idea that won't amount to much like alot of other PC-Faction idea's, but what the hell. Also, minor spoilers.

 
All around Mistlocke there are subtle hints of the presence of the fairest folk, the miraculous, the fae. From the cinquefoil roses, to the Endless Revel of Shropshee Shee (or whatever the hell that random mist area is called), to the Cursed Ground of Lady Annitaia in the freshwater springs. The lingering evidence of powers beyond the boundaries of this physical realm are everywhere.

I would like to drive a Player faction, similar to the short lived "Elf" faction of EFU:A centered around contacting and allying with these Fae, to provide another possible refuge from the withering and make allies against H'bala, and of course give those with no intention of kowtowing to human scum and their monkey politics a place to turn.

Unlike the Elf faction, this would not be racially biased group however, as 1. Not alot of people want to or like to play elves and 2. Not all Allies of the Fey would be necessarily elven. The Heartwarder of Sune, a Prestige Class for Sunite Clerics for instance, slowly becomes a Fey being over the course of their class progression.

This group would likly have ties to the Wildfolk without necessarily being druidic or civilization hating - Elven Society has long straddled the boundaries of civilization and nature, and many elves were relabled as a type of fey racially in 4.0 (yeah boo hiss I know)

This is mostly an emphemeral motivation at the moment, born of a desire to form a highly individualistic faction without ties to the political structure but lacking the stark isolationism of the Stewards groups.

 
Suggested Alignments: Primarily NG, CG, TN, CN, but any Non Lawful would likly work

Ideal Classes: Any but Paladin (possible exception for Paladins of Sune and Corellon). Druids may be too tied to the Material World to go gallivanting into the realms of the Seelie

Suggested Races: Human, Elf, Half-Elf, Halfling, Gnomes. Halforcs may be considered too brutish, Dwarves too dour and suspicious of magic and the feywilde.

Goals: Delve into the Fae related mythos and powers of Ymph, contact the Feywilde, traffick with the Miraculous,. Find an endless party and hole up for armageddon.
