I'm a folklorist who has been doing research on Eurasian fairies and I'd be interested in writing about some of the personalities and motivations of different types of fairies and the historical way people acted towards them.Nukiukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03348251039053145580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443896993888747939.post-85212758249868498202012-06-20T10:06:50.249-07:002012-06-20T10:06:50.249-07:00I agree, I think the problem comes down to the fac...I agree, I think the problem comes down to the fact that people think of our own fairy tale world as too cute and whimsical. I blame the Victorians for this. <br />The notion that anything that came from the Celtic Warriors, Vikings, Germanic Tribes, and similar groups was sugary is silly. <br />The Fairy Queen cast down armies in Irish Mythology.Nukiukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03348251039053145580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443896993888747939.post-38392461431209768932011-06-25T05:46:09.910-07:002011-06-25T05:46:09.910-07:00There's a lot of room in fanatasy-land but it ...There's a lot of room in fanatasy-land but it does seem folks are often talking themselves into small corners with adventures and campaign concepts.JDJarvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691101939920824546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443896993888747939.post-83082813696252523872011-06-24T10:47:42.937-07:002011-06-24T10:47:42.937-07:00I agree completely.

Hell, even Pathfinder has stats for shoggoths and Hounds of Tindalos in the monster books. <br /><br />I mean, I still like that kind of stuff, mind you, but I agree.... we could use a different flavor for awhile.<br /><br />Hmm....Grimm's Faerie Tales... yes, I think that would do nicely!DMWieghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03682249561077936507noreply@blogger.com
