The Otherworld
The Otherworld is a parallel dimension to the Surface World, accessible via portals in the form of spells, oddities, and Faerie circles.
While many of it's inhabitants were born and raised in the Otherworld- having no way to leave, others were trapped there or simply went there on their own volition for.
Sídhe (shee)
Sídhe, known colloquially as Faerie Isle, is the primary home of the Faeries. It is composed of 4 main Districts- the District of Change, The Wooded District, The Bog District, and The Cave District.
Faeish, used primarily by Faeries and Fairies, a phonetic alphabetical language.
The spoken language consists largely of chirps, clicks, hisses, and occasional soft vowels.
Most if not all Fae and Fai have adapted to speak English alongside Faeish.

Species of Faeries: Primarily located in Sídhe, found in Tech Duinn
Changeling (plural; changelings):
Faerie; located in Sídhe & Tech Duinn

It is highly advised to anyone traveling in Sídhe to learn the traits associated with changelings when seeing any living creature.

Púca (plural; púca):
Fae; located in Sídhe & Tech Duinn
Sexes: Male, female, intersex
Púca are malicious animal shapeshifters, unlike changelings however each individual can only take the form of one specific animal.
These include wolves, foxes, goats, horses, cats, dogs, hares, or if their parents are 2 different animals, a hybridised mix. They most commonly take the form of horses though, and other species are exceedingly rare.
They always maintain animal characteristics in their true form that resemble the animal they can take the form of.
They’re incredibly destructive and will destroy entire villages- wrecking houses, shops, structures, and killing any livestock or creature that gets in their way.
They’re considered highly aggressive and volatile and the best course of action is to ignore their presence and allow them to do whatever they want until they leave, at which point you can begin to assess the damages.

Vile (plural; vila):
Faerie; located in Sídhe
Sexes: All female
Vile faeries are ambivalent on the offset, however they sometimes work in close proximity with changeling fae in order to trick and deceive others.
They may be legitimately helpful in some cases and provide assistance, however they are incredibly quick to anger and will lash out violently if they are insulted, dismissed, rejected, or disobeyed. They’re similar to Nymph fae in their relations to shapeshifting fae and control over nature, albeit they’re less powerful.
Certain Vila can often be found gathered in groups in the forest dancing and intermingling, this is typically in more forested remote locations. However, if they are interrupted, they will either kill you or curse you with a fatal sickness only curable via magic. These vila often take the form of wolves.
Some vila prefer the water, taking the form of swans most commonly. These vila seek out female companions, offering them gifts and blessings in exchange for companionship and love. Don’t confuse them with Nixie or Alven however, or you will die.
