7	[[folder:In General]]
8	* BarredFromTheAfterlife: The fey exist outside of the normal "life, death, afterlife" cycle, as the First World is not connected to the River of Souls. As such, when fey die, they just [[ResurrectiveImmortality respawn]] somewhere in the First World, albeit typically missing some memories, explaining why they don't always seek revenge. There are some ways fey can be KilledOffForReal, but these usually require some kind of MacGuffin or magic.
9	* TheFairFolk: PlayedStraight more often than not. While ''a few'' kinds of fey are genuinely benevolent, most are either [[AlwaysChaoticEvil evil]], [[ChaoticStupid crazy]] or [[BlueAndOrangeMorality incomprehensible]].
10	* NatureSpirit: Most fey embody an aspect of nature, whether directly representing specific trees, rocks or animals or more abstract concepts such as reproduction, tool use, entropy and the like.
11	* OurFairiesAreDifferent: Most are quite different even from each other!

298
299	---
300	* ColonyDrop: Invoked and subverted. They ''want'' their targets to think they're going to suffer this, nihilistic fear is really satisfying - they don't actually want to kill anyone directly though, actually destroying a planet would remove a food source.
301	* EmotionEater: Gwahleds sustain themselves with fear. Scaring the pants off a planet removes their need for sustenance for a few centuries.
302	* OmnicidalManiac: Subverted. They plummet at planets, seemingly planning to end a world via ColonyDrop, but in reality, they just want people to ''think'' they'll hit, diverting at the last moment once they've had their fill of terror and leave the world damaged, but usually able to rebuild.
303	* SupernaturalFearInducer: Once the gwahled is very close to the planet, its fear-eater aura drives most inhabitants into abject supernatural terror, on which the gwahled feeds.
