The magic of the Fey tradition once belonged exclusively to the immortal faeries, but the secrets have slipped out and spread into the world, usually through the efforts of mischievous goblins.

Many Fey spells manipulate their targets by twisting emotions and perceptions to lead others into danger. The more powerful spells of the tradition can summon faerie allies, reveal secrets, and imprison powerful enemies.

Discovering the Fey tradition usually involves having some amount of interaction with a faerie. Goblins, imps, hags, and similar creatures might impart the secrets of the tradition to a worthy student. It might also be possible to discover the tradition by examining faerie writings or visiting places of great import to the fey folk.
