Gentry
Each True Fae has its own page where they are described in deeper detail, with information about who they are, where they exist and how they work, links to plots which reference them or, more likely, their minions.
- Important: No Keeper or Domain is permitted to reference copyrighted works. You are not going to have a Warhammer 40K durance, or (sadly) live in Willy Wonka land.
If you edit this page to add your Keeper, at the very bottom is a template which you can copy/paste and fill out that will add it to the list.
Further, if you want to create a page for your Keeper, just put the name into the box below and it will give you a template to start with.
The Mother Who Feeds
- Creator - Staff: Annapurna
- Activity - Local: This staff-created Fae has been active locally.
- Realm - Home: Happy homestead where Mother's children are child, pet, playmate and prey.
- Methodology - Twisted Love: Mother knows best. Deliberately changes 'children'. If you're bad, you're food.
- Preferred Victims - Lost and Found: She searches for lost children, or people crying out for help. Fiercely protective of her victims.
- Common Creations - Friend or Food: Those who know how to make mother do what THEY want. Manipulators, convincing cons, loyal playmates, family pets, or prey beasts
- Allies - Mother's Hounds: The most vicious of her children are set to police the rest and find new prey.
- Escapees - Adeline Desrochers, Apollo Krieos, C. J. Grillo, Callie Utridge, Donald Macphearson, Garth Rodger Rodgers, Hunter Garreau, Imogene Lefleur, Nana, Thompson Meadows, Whiskey Fry
The Floriographer
- Creator - Staff: Annapurna
- Activity - Local: This staff-created Fae has been active locally.
- Realm - The Herbarium: An ever-sunny garden where his blossoms grow, are groomed, and live forever.
- Methodology - Beautiful Obsessions: Improves your beauty, grace, elocution, sends you to others in bouquets and, if you're beautiful enough, presses you between glass to stay lovely forever.
- Preferred Victims - The Loveliest of Them All: He searches for the beauty queens, prize winning dancers, elegant speakers.

The Borrower
- Creator - Staff: Annapurna
- Activity - Local: This staff-created Fae has been active locally.
- Realm - The Proving Ground: Environmental penalty? What's that? An entire realm? You don't say...
- Methodology - Be the Best of the Best: Improve or perish. Changelings are run through bizarre tests of combative visual/auditory/sensory acuity to procure the most gifted of them all. Prone to 'borrowing' the eyes, or ears, or tongues, of those whose senses he wants to acquire for the day.
- Preferred Victims - You: He isn't picky. When you go through so many changelings, so rapidly, you really can't afford to be choosy.
- Common Creations - Keen and Paranoid: Sharp of senses...or not. Fight or flight. Commonly Beasts and Ogres. Most often maimed.

The Noemata
- Creator - Staff: Rainier
- Activity - Local: This staff-created Fae has been active locally.
- Realm - The Seventy-Eight Steps: An impossibly massive step pyramid, surrounded by desert during the day and rain forest by night. A persistent hiss of glinting beetles.
- Methodology - Questing and Lessons: Everything is symbolic. Especially you. You will learn and relearn your lesson until you can teach it to others, until it is all you know.
- Preferred Victims - Ordinary or Extraordinary: Nearly anyone can fall victim to the Noemata. All it takes is, for one moment, showing some spark of an archetype or some need to learn.
- Common Creations - Archetypes and Insects: Many of the Noemata's creations personify a tarot card, both the major and minor arcana of equal importance. Many, instead, are the beetles which flitter about the Seventy-Eight Steps, most of which are glittering blue-green or otherwise jewel-toned.
- Allies - None Known
- Escapees - Althea Miller, Amber Watson, Andromeda, Cardinal, Coral Garreau, Dorian Crystal, Gareth Emrys, Jonah Joseph, Joss Utridge, Makani, Morgan Liadan, Six, Tess Finegold, Yesteryear, Zelda Fry, Zillah Grimes
Milk and Honey
- Creator - Staff: Rainier
- Activity - Local: This staff-created Fae has been active locally.
- Realm - The River that Ate the Moon: Idyllic fields and marble estates set upon a brilliant, glittering river where the sun never sets and every wish can be fulfilled.
- Methodology - Unrelenting Excess: Pleasures upon pleasures, every desire indulged. Except the desire to stop. When does not enough become too much?
- Preferred Victims - Prudes and Hedonists: Milk attracts the wholesome, the pure, while Honey draws in the decadent, the indulgent.
- Common Creations - Abnormally Moral: Those who escape Milk and Honey's sweet torment tend to be either excessively strict in their morality, having repeatedly experienced the dangers of indulgence, or extremely loose in their morality, having lived too long with the lines between good and bad blurred into nonexistence. Many gravitate toward the Sun or Moon Courts.
- Allies - None Known
- Escapees - Anita, Helah Morgenstern, Michelle Hawthorne, Noel Nicholas, Riley Jameson, Sam Ryans, Sutter Fry, Tegan Williams, Tom O'Leary, Tracy MacGregor

- Methodology - Constant Conflict: War never ends. There is always another battle. There are always trenches to be dug, strategies to be planned, wounded to be tended, bodies to be buried, noobs to be pwned.
- Preferred Victims - Warriors and Weaklings: Anyone with an urge to fight, whether in the military, the ring, the schoolyard, the internet. Anyone with the appropriate interests, such as history buffs, video game geeks, chess dweebs.
- Common Creations - Soldiers and Strategists: Grunts, generals, nurses, ditch-diggers, number-nerds, code-breakers, etc. It takes an army. Literally.

- Methodology - Terror and Theft: He steals your memories. He'll steal more if he catches you slacking. Always look busy. Or hide. Hiding is always an option.
- Preferred Victims - Loners, Lonely, Alone: King Nothing picks off those who are isolated from society, who are alone or hiding, who no one will miss for at least a little while.

- Activity - Worldwide: This Gentry is active anywhere that bureacracy and tedious administration work is...Which is to say, he can be found anywhere.
- Realm - The Obelisk: Though this Gentry is largely nomadic, he does have a small realm, an impossibly tall obilesk full of number crunchers and admins grinding away at endless drugery.
- Methodology - Tedious Drudgery: Paperwork, accounting, filing. Census taking and collating data. Exciting stuff.
- Preferred Victims - Drudges: He selects those who excel at being cogs in the wheel of bureacracy and office work. Detail oriented, middle-management types. Government officials. He largely takes those who do not have many ties in the world, the ones that won't be missed.
- Common Creations - Admins: Almost exclusively, those that come out of the Tally Man's domain are Wizened. The occasional Antiquarian, or hunter-type Ogre or Beast may be found, and of course there's always the odd duck of another seeming/kith, but mostly? Drudges, Chatelaines, Authors and the like.
- Allies - Recruiters: A band of Privateers that use recruitment ads and job fairs to collect victims
- Escapees - Betsy Wilson
Sky Admiral Santei
- Creator - Player: Basil
- Activity - Worldwide: This gentry looks for anything he wants, specifically that which other Gentry are looking for to strike first.
- Realm - Solar Fleet Epsilon: The Admiral's domain is a fleet of solar ships that travel between the domains of other, weaker Gentry to rob them of everything from titles to treasures, to you perhaps?
- Methodology - Keep what you Kill: If you can take something from someone they must not have wanted it very badly to leave it so very unprotected. Often includes raids on other Gentry.
- Preferred Victims - Ambitious & Moraly Ambiguous: There is no honour among thieves. He took those who had a philosophy that might made right, or were overly ambitious, were willing to sacrifice morals for progress, or even needed something and knew the cost to get it.
- Common Creations - Space Pirates: You escaped through cunning and daring. You know survival is won by gaining the upper hand. This is either in force, wit, or guile.

The Baroness of Fire and Ice
- Creator - Player: Ian
- Activity - Local to New England: The minions of the Baroness of Fire and Ice have been collecting captives for her realm since the early 1800s.
- Realm - Palace of Crystalline Reflections: A great yin/yang shaped crater with a volcano on one side, a great icy peak on the other, and in the very center a lake that both bubbles and freezes with an island on which the Crystalline Palace sits.
- Methodology - Hot and Cold: Melded and enhanced by the elements, the warmth of appreciation of one's best qualities is a pleasure indeed, until the cold reality that one is merely a tool with a purpose sets in.
- Preferred Victims - Passion/Dispassion: Those whose fire burns bright, or whose chill calm is their strength.
- Common Creations - Forged in Fire and Ice: Almost all are touched by the elements in some way, their forms forged in fire, carved of ice, made for a purpose, usually protection, pleasure, or performance.

- Escapees - Andrew Bennett, Ashley, Connor Mason, Eden Lopez, Hannah Harper, Jon Ihrck, Omari Smith, Vin
The Librarian

- Activity - New York: Mostly active in Upstate New York...as far as anyone knows
- Realm - The Library: An ever shifting world of fantasy and fiction where stories are acted out, sprawled out from The Library in the center where all the stories are kept.
- Methodology - Once Upon A Time...: Most end up as players in the stories that are acted out in the area surrounding the library. Very few actually enter The Library itself and those that do never see anyone else unless they are tapped to take a role in a story as well.
- Preferred Victims - Shy & Unwanted: For the Players that make up the bulk of those there, anything goes. They're the ones scavenged from other Gentry.
- Common Creations - Players & Bibliographers: The Librarian actually takes few people itself and only when there is a need for someone to work in The Library and a good candidate presents themselves. The Bibliographers tend to be socially awkward and Elementals, often Levinquick. The Players on the other hand can and are anything as they are the discards from other Gentry.
- Allies - N/A yet

- Methodology - A Game of Ratings: If you are interesting, dynamic and plays a role that can garner her interest, you live. If you are boring, and your one-Fae audience doesn't want you anymore, you die.
- Preferred Victims - The Stereotypically Engrossing: Policemen two days away from retiring, thieves with hearts of gold, troubled youths. Anyone who looks like the go-to source of drama in the media attracts her attention, be they actually interesting or not.
- Common Creations - Heroes & Villains: Beasts, Darklings and Ogres are almost exclusively villains because they look what one would expect monsters to look like, whereas Fairest are almost always protagonists, leading armies and fighting their wretched counterparts.
- Allies - Coming soon.
- Escapees - Aslan Altan, Jessica Belmonte, Kara Khan, Lotus Lefevre
The Chronicler of the Shifting Sands
- Creator - Player: Ian

- Realm - The Midnight Market: All the chaos, passion, and violence of an action movie where rival gangs vie for territory and exotic entertainments abound.
- Methodology - Beauty and Chaos: The Illustrious Master fills his teeming streets with fighters and performers, shopkeeps and spies, a dizzying array of disparate players on his chaotic stage.
- Preferred Victims - Indiscriminate Selection: Employing roving bands of Loyalists, most victims are simply kidnapped from wherever and however might be convenient. Almost anyone who is in the wrong place at the wrong time might be snatched up.
- Common Creations - The Strong Survive: Any Seeming might come out of the teeming streets though many are flavored by an anime level of Asian influence with a blending of folklore and action movie tropes.
- Allies - Small roving gangs of Loyalist "recruiters" of various types.
- Escapees - Charlotte Webb, Cyril, Karin Frei
The Diva
- Creator - Player: Angelique
- Activity - Local : North-eastern US, and the eastern region of Canada, from the late nineteenth century.
- Realm - The Grand Theatre: The glittering stage, the ballrooms that surround it and the endless, endless maze of back halls, The Grand Theatre seems like it should be small, and yet it is the whole world when it needs to be.
- Methodology - The Performance: All his world is a stage, and we but players. Bit players. Those drawn into The Grand Theatre will never be the star, but they will be cast in less desirous roles, where there's no such thing as stage blood, where stories twist in horrifying ways, and where everyone's job is to make The Diva look good, or function as arm candy, stagehands or bodyguards. Never, ever outshine him or he will spare no effort to make sure no one can look upon you without shuddering again.
- Preferred Victims - Theatre People: The Diva tends to go after those who are drawn to the theatre, or those who show some particular aptitude for what he needs. Actors and actresses are common victims, but so are those who might serve him in other manners, and on occasion, he'll simply snatch some particularly pretty face that catches his eye.
- Common Creations - Pretty or Crafty: Fairests, Ogres and the Wisened are by far the most common Seemings The Diva seems to create, filling the roles of either other actors or helpers, but there is room in his theatre for all comers. Those who upstage him, however, are always turned into the most horrific things he can imagine.
- Allies -
- Escapees - Angelique, Dinah Ascher, Grace Townsend, Ink, Marian Fry, Shade
The Chronicler of Lies
- Creator - Player: Aaron
- Activity - Local: North-eastern US, and the eastern region of Canada, from ???? ~ Present Day
- Realm - Insert Realm Name: The Grand Stage: A place that looks like, at first, an abandoned theater house, but then changes and transforms to suit the needs of the story being played out with those captured as the characters of the story.
- Methodology - Thrice Upon a Time: Those that find their way to the Grand Stage soon discover that they are characters in what might have been a familiar story, but soon discover the horrific changes in the tale. Things are twisted, perverted, made unfamiliar, all while one begins to question their own identities and become more of a twisted archetype.
- Preferred Victims - Stories within: The Chronicler of Lies has an interest in modifying Its stories, and to do so, it "borrows" anyone and everyone. It's most attracted most to those that loves reading, writing, and any other artistic expression where someone is trying to tell a story through their medium.
- Common Creations - The Role: All Seemings welcomed. Those escapees tend to be dual or triple kith--as one begins to transform into their (His) main archetype, they take on multiple qualities that best resemble the role they were meant to be
- Allies - TBD
- Escapees - Aaron Fletcher
The Wicked Wood
- Creator - Staff or Player: Lulu
- Activity - Local or Elsewhere: East Coast, USA centered around Roanoke and Boston most often.
- Realm - The Wood: A place for the wild to run free and unhindered.. Until they're needed for those vital bits.
- Methodology - Survival, Mysticism, Nature, Hunting, Fear, Magic
- Preferred Victims - Anyone.: The wood is an opportunist. Mostly people who get lost or go out into the woods alone. Drawing them in with faerie rings, magical oaks, and willows, fairies, visions of unicorns, anything that will draw a lost wanderer .
- Common Creations - Hunter or Hunted.: Those who fetch the ingredients to help the Wicked Wood and it's Witched to maintain it's magic.
- Allies - The Witches: Women of any age or type, Loyalists all, who have dedicated themselves to the Wood. Everything from hansel and Gretel's witch to a Voodoo Priestess. They need the reagents from the magical beasts that live in their realm to continue serving the Wood.
Familiars: These are the Hunters. They are not always Loyalists. But they are not usually good people. These people were those used by the Witches, lured in and taken to become the Witches lovers/familiars/hunters.
- Escapees - Briar, Erica Miller, Lulu, Saga Skoglund
The Baroness
- Creator - Player: Valerie
- Activity - Worldwide: Her minions will take likely people from all over the globe.
- Realm - Endless Castle: This castle resembles one from a millennium ago in England, but it goes deep underground. On the surface it’s lovely, with parties and feasts held frequently, but underground...there’s nothing but pain.
- Methodology - Endless Feast: The Baroness expects near constant feasts and parties. For her favorites they attend the parties. Those less preferred, who either are not up to her standards or show reluctance to party, are servants. There are a few, though, who serve as mystical whipping boys for her favored few, for the Baroness tolerates no disrespect and punishes harshly.
- Preferred Victims - The Lost and Forgotten: Those who are lost or those who have no one to miss them are her favored targets, though the spoiled and wealthy are just as likely to join in her celebrations.
- Common Creations - Guest or Servant: Wizened Servants, Fairest Partygoers, Metallic or jeweled Elementals or Fairests, occasionally Beasts, primarily those who might be found in a medieval castle.
- Allies - The Hunters: Though most are guest or servant, the Baroness has her Hunters, though they don’t hunt game. They hunt for more people to fill her castle.
- Escapees - Valerie
The Lady of the Loser's Grief
- Creator - Staff: K2
- Activity - Worldwide: Active within the last few centuries, this Gentry has been known to take people from all over the world, usually from areas where gambling is seen as a vice and such things are done behind closed doors.
- Realm - The House of Cards: The Lady's Domain is a Fae Casino, a gambling den where all manner of exotic tastes are catered to.
- Methodology - Games and Wagers: The Lady usually takes those whom she finds to be entertaining, in the hopes that they will continue to be so, both to herself and her menagerie of strange guests. Maybe with a few adjustments. Often, they will be the subject of strange, often cruel wagers between her and her other guests. Nothing is off limits, if the guests are willing to pay the buy-in.
- Preferred Victims - Graceful and Skilled: Those with exceptional skills or features, either as performers, fighters, sentries, thieves, or servants.
- Common Creations - Pieces on the Board: Weaponized game pieces. Exotic creatures. Living works of art. Other more specialized uses.
- Allies - Several Gentry are known to be her allies. And she also has more than a few enemies.
- Escapees - Carter Logan
The Monstrous Prince
- Creator - Player: Beau
- Activity - Local: Northeastern United States and eastern Canada.
- Realm - The Twisted Forest: A forest blanketed in perpetual night and lashed by intermittent winter storms. At the center is a Gothic castle built on the side of a black mountain.
- Methodology - Survival or Servitude: One will either be banished to the forest to survive, or confined to the castle to serve.
- Preferred Victims - Broken Beauty: Either the beautiful or creators of beauty: models, artists, musicians; though those with some darkness in them are preferred: depression, trauma, or a violent temper.
- Common Creations - Twisted and Tormented: Wizened, Ogres, Darklings, nocturnal and scavenger Beasts, Elementals of cold and storms. Nothing beautiful, warm, or bright comes from this realm. Fairest are completely unknown.
- Allies - Nightmares: A cadre of loyalists that bring sacrifices to the Prince. He also loves doing his own dirty work.
- Escapees - Alexei Orlov, Velvet
Master of Wine and Spirits
- Creator - Player: Gabriel Grayson
- Activity - Elsewhere: Below the Mason-Dixon Line.
- Realm - The Vineyard: Sprawling fields of twisted vineyards, orchards and assorted crops where spirits are cultivated for the Master.
- Methodology - Tools or Crops: Either keep up with the Master's constant need for new tastes, new experiences or become a part of one of their vintages.
- Preferred Victims - Rural Folks: The Master picks from agricultural communities, from manual laborers and farmers to wine-makers and pie-bakers.
- Common Creations - Innovators & Spirit-workers: Those who can create new fare thrive in the Master's realm. Most who escape have familiarity with spirits. Wizened and elementals common.
- Allies - Unknown
- Escapees - Gabriel Grayson, Louisa Dalton
The Marvelously Mystical Mister Minister of Missed Moments
- Creator - Player: Sterling
- Activity - Elsewhere: Semi-globally, usually in areas that are at least partially metropolitan.
- Realm - The Port of Potential: "Chaos is a ladder" fits well to describe the structure of the Minister's realm. While the Gentry himself sits pretty on top, its victims are often put into a loose hierarchy after being forcibly altered and given better means to obtain their ends. This constantly leads to a strategic game of politicking and maneuvering as different groupings try to coerce and stab the way to the top of their social section for a real or imagined carrot always lingering just out of reach.
- Methodology - Inside Becomes Outside: Changelings belonging to this Gentry are usually changed into something reflecting their desires - all of them, whether repressed or not - and given a role within the Minister's realm. They're encouraged to use whatever means necessary to fulfill their goals, with constant promises of more.
- Preferred Victims - Ambition and Regret: The Minister favors those who have an unfulfilled ambition, especially if they feel grief or regret over dreams not obtained or fulfilled. Unhappy housewives, failed artists or actors, those entering a midlife crisis, and the like.
- Common Creations - Mister Hyde: Frequently the forms of the Changelings created are unsettling in some way: a reflection of inner desires that might be latent or heavily repressed. Fairest, Beasts, and Elementals are typically uncommon (with Fairest being the most common of these) except in the instances of a secondary Kith.
- Allies - Faces: Also sometimes called Salesmen, Grifters, and similar by escapees, these are agents and loyalists of the Minister that act in his favor on Earth. Their job is to approach potential acquisitions for the Minister, and make them a deal that's literally too good to be true.
- Escapees - none
Tuatha de Danann
- Creator - Player: Rowan
- Activity - British Isles: Exclusively found on the British Isles, particularly active in Ireland and Wales.
- Realm - The Faerie Hill: The British Isles, as it was when it was still a tribal land, heightened and warped in many ways.
- Methodology - Ancient Tales: Those taken by the Tuatha de Danann are entered into the endless reliving of old battles, legendary quests and epic relations of this collective band of Gentry who claim to be the oldest around. One could find themselves a nymph endlessly enticing people to join them, a sentient tree preparing for battle, or the victim of some inexplicable love triangle that leaves one with insane tasks or a life lived as an animal. Always it is in line with the old Celtic mythology and legends.
- Preferred Victims - Trespassers: Those who step through ancient gates, or trigger long-forgotten boundaries that these Gentry claim.
- Common Creations - Legends: Seemings and Kiths run the gamut, but everyone falls into ancient Celtic legends/mythology in some way.
- Allies - Fairy Revelers: These Loyalists are used on fairy hills and woods to lure in unsuspecting humans, plying them with drink, food and fun until they pass out and can easily be taken to Arcadia.
- Escapees - none This makes it so anyone with the Category for this Gentry will appear here.
The Queen of Storms
- Creator - Player: Cassian
- Activity - Elsewhere: Coastal New England
- Realm - Stormcoast: The Stormcoast is a realm of seaways against a rocky beachhead and an expansive forest. Jagged rocks liter the beach and waterways, and sinking ships are common sights as the Queen ravages their attempts at navigation.
- Methodology - Manipulation of Love and Service: As impossible as it seems to leave, the Queen is often seemingly open to arranging a duration of service in exchange for freedom, or a period of love, though it seems rare anyone survives long enough to fulfill their bargain.
- Preferred Victims - Explorers and Adventurers: The Queen favors those who want to see beyond the horizon or around the riverbend. Those with a curiosity insatiable.
- Common Creations - Betrayers: The true cage of the Queen of Storms is in self-preservation at the cost of others. She delights in making other Lost betray themselves to her confidence. This can be literal, as a Warden returning escapees, or figurative, as a twisted lover toying with the emotions of others.
- Allies - The Corsairs, a group of roving Privateers running aground in coastal lands just a hair close to New England cities. The Queen also favors 'exotic' Lost from far away inland, trading with merchants and slavers that come and go.
- Escapees - none This makes it so anyone with the Category for this Gentry will appear here.
His And Her Graces Of The Stars And Jungle
- Creator - Staff or Player: Gisa, with thanks to R2
- Activity - Elsewhere: Active in Europe and Coastal America.
- Realm - The Arena: An arena surrounded by a deep moat, surmounted by a range of stars.
- Methodology - The Fighters, The Watchers, The Guards: They trade with other Fae for fighters, or capture targets of opportunity. Many who belong to Their Graces did not always. If Lost were not arena fighters, they were guards, or observers. Whoever you were, you fought. However you fought, you fought. Border patrol in the water, celestial creature hung to light the arena, eventually, you fought for their amusement. And you only ate what and when you killed.
- Preferred Victims - The Strong, The Swift, The Mad: The quickest, the strongest, the bravest, the most vicious. The most foolish. Led by their hearts, most often.
- Common Creations - The Strong, The Swift, The Dangerous: Almost invariably, escapees have at least one Beast kith. Fairest and Darklings are also common: whatever they create, it will be somehow ineffably wild. Mad, bad, and dangerous to know.
- Allies - Unknown at this time. Rumored to be Ascended Lost.
- Escapees - Calm, Elia Quasey, Esther Swift, Quinn Garreau, Regina Hazard
