Fey-themed party
My party is looking into making a faerie themed party. So far, we have an Archfey pact warlock who performed a ritual in a musty old time he found to contact Titania and ask her for knowledge and power (at a price). We also have an Oath of the Ancients paladin; he's a fey knight who gets his holy powers from his powerful faerie masters. We're looking for other very fey-themed character ideas. Got any?

Re: Fey-themed party
You could have a cleric who has the Nature or Tempest domain granted to him by the worship of a fey deity. Perhaps this cleric is the personal warrior for this patron - the sword arm for this fey's plan to gain more power.

Re: Fey-themed party
The druid seems an obvious choice. Druid summoning is often fey spirits that take the shapes required.

Re: Fey-themed party
- Arcane tricksters are an easy fit, especially gnomes
- Non-fey races can have a background in which they were taken into the feywild/replaced with a changeling, and have recently escaped/been freed
- EK fighters are easily viewed as sidhe knights (especially if they're high elves)

Re: Fey-themed party
-A barbarian who draws from sidhe patrons or spirits of the woods to fluff the animal totems.
-A bard. Fey love music!
-Maybe it's just me, but a wild magic sorcerer seems like it would be a good fit for a person who inherited their sorcery thanks to some fair folk blood. Faerie magic is powerful, but it doesn't always do quite what you tell it to do.Last edited by Steel Mirror; 2014-10-01 at 12:35 PM.

Re: Fey-themed party
I'd go with a construction worker, an Indian, a cop, a cowboy, and a biker..... Oh.. FEY themed.... I feel awkward now.

Re: Fey-themed party
Hm... Several Fey (such as 3.5's leShay's) don't rely on trickery and misdirection but instead have mastered physical combat. Maybe your ranger/fighter/barbarian has trained under one? A variant human fighter with Magic Initiate would have a bit of 'fey magic' (minor illusion, friends, charm person) while still being a melee warrior.
