The Unseeley Fey
This malignant breed of Fey is the result of an ancient, secretive conflict between the Sylvan Elves and the dreaded Formori. Racked by the evils of Chaos, Sylvan Fey warriors were twisted into these minions of darkness. Their black pulsing veins reveal the putrescence flowing through their bodies, and make visible to all the dark heart that beats inside, giving life to these abominations. Sages disagree as to whether the Unseeley Fey are truly inherently evil. What is the truth? Can a creature infused with pure Chaos ever be good? These enigmas are prone to severe eccentricity that changes with the wind. It is as if they are the true antithesis of the good-hearted Sylvan Fey from which they were spawned.

Make-Up and Costuming Requirements
Unseeley Fey are required to wear horns on their forehead. These may be of latex, sculpting clay, or carved from wood. Make sure that your horns are a minimum of 1.5 inches long and aren‘t sharp enough to cause injury. Consult a Race Marshall for tips on making them. Unseeley Fey are not required to wear pointed ears, but may elect to do so if they wish. All aspects of an Unseeley Fey‘s costuming should reflect the Chaotic and twisted aspects of their nature. As a Chaos-tainted race, Unseeley Fey are also required to draw gray or black lines on all exposed skin to represent the putrescence that flows through their veins and blackened heart.
Inherent Advantages
Because the Unseeley are essentially Sylvan Fey, they have some command over Charming magic and effects. Unseeley Fey may purchase the Resist Charm skill. Because of their creative nature, they may purchase Craft skills for ½ Build Cost. Unseeley have over the years become immune to the effects of Truth/Honest or Lie Spells. Pursuit of darker things has led the Unseeley away from the woodland mastery by their brothers, the Sylvan Fey; thus, they have no advantage with the bow, or a special knowledge of the forest but they are instead twisted by the darkness of Chaos. The result of this is that Unseeley Fey are permanently Desecrated. Consult a Rules or Race Marshal for more clarification on this ability.
Inherent Disadvantages
Due to the their frail nature, Unseeley Fey suffer a -1 Starting Body Points and -5 to Maximum Body Points. Their size* also limits the choice of combat arms. Two-Handed Sword and Two-Handed Blunt are unavailable to this race (Note: Unseeley Fey MAY purchase the Two-Handed Mastery skill, however, it is limited to use of Polearms and Staves). Unseeley Fey are permanently Desecrated. There is rumored to be a Formal Magic Ritual that can restore theses creatures to their former state, but it remains undiscovered. Unseeley Fey are extremely unpredictable, and thus, cannot be members of any Knightly Order or become Rangers. Additionally, because of their Chaotic taint, Unseeley cannot be Healers. Unlike their kin, Unseeley have no problem with using mind controlling magic or effects; in fact, they enjoy dominion over other beings.
*Purchasing at least +1 Strength Bonus, as a prerequisite, permits Unseely Fey to purchase the Two-Handed Blunt and Two-Handed Sword, or gain the use of those weapons with Two-Handed Mastery skill. All Strength bonus rules apply. No other source of strength augmentation is suitable for this benefit.
