Fey

Fey
Puck and FairiesSir Joseph Noel Paton - c. 1850

The Fey are playful spirits made of pure magic. They begin their immortal lives in the Feywild as shapeless magical energy. In the same way mortals draw from the Feywild to cast spells, Fey draw from the Material Plane to gain form.

The first form a Fey chooses is the form they assume indefinitely. Childlike as they are, Fey usually become fantastical horned or winged creatures. With no fear of death or meaningful consequence, they summon infinite wonderlands to explore, play, and hunt in to their hearts’ content.

However, in this world of infinite magic, it is not so uncommon for a young Fey, small and curious, to slip through a seam between planes. For those unfortunate Fey like yourself who have become trapped in the Material Plane, the form you held when entering the plane will forevermore be the form you inhabit. It can only be hoped that a Fey who dies in the Material Plane would return in spirit to the Feywild. Alas, communication with the Feywild remains rudimentary. Those Fey who stumble through, despite their endless variety, are all devastated to learn that a thing such as death could exist at all.

Privacy

This site has no signup, sends no email, carries no analytics or advertising trackers, and never asks for your real name, your address, or a payment card.

If nobody has sent you a claim link, the site holds nothing about you: your character is saved in your own browser and never reaches the server.

If your DM has sent you a claim link, the server holds your display name, your characters and their save history, the picture you upload for your character (only the latest: a new one or the × deletes the last), the dates you joined and last visited with a count of visits, and a scrambled copy of your recovery phrase. It holds them so your character follows you between devices. That is the service, and the legitimate interest it relies on. One cookie keeps you signed in; there are no others.

At the table, you can let your figure light up while you talk.It is off unless you turn it on, and your browser asks you first. Your microphone is measured for when you are speaking and never for what you are saying: the sound is examined in your own browser and never recorded, saved, or sent anywhere, and the only thing that reaches the table is “talking” or “not talking”, which nothing writes down. It stops the moment you turn it off, leave the table, or take the permission back in your browser.

Your DM can read and edit your characters. Cloudflare hosts the site and the database on servers in North America, and GitHub holds a private nightly backup, both under their standard UK transfer terms. Nothing is sold, shared, or used to train anything.

Your account is kept until your DM removes it, which deletes everything above. Backups taken before that day persist for a while in the private archive.

Your account page can export everything the server holds for you, or delete your account outright. Your sheet is yours to correct at any time.

Questions go to the DM who sent your invite link; there is no company behind this site. If you are in the UK and think your information has been mishandled, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
