Editing Fae (section)

===Exiled===
Exiled Faerie, those who are banished, are not allowed to: directly harm [[Innocents]], appear in large cities, or interact with [[Lords]].<ref name=Exil>Exiled faerie were kept out of towns with Lords as a matter of course. The Court apparently didn’t want exiles making deals or gaining power, so they stuck them only in small villages and towns, or even in areas well out of reach of humans. - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2014/07/12 Excerpt] from [[Signature 8.2]]</ref> If they're lucky they'll be in places where they can still manipulate social fabric to get the things that a fae needs,<ref name=Cap/> even being sent into the remote wilderness.<ref name=Exil/><ref>The Heroic spirits that could manifest here weren’t strong.  And outside of this corner of reality, they couldn’t really exist.  So they remained.  And the scattered few Fae- Avery could only guess why some remained.  Apparently a lot of Faerie nobles liked to exile lesser Fae to remote wilderness, and some were established around here, sneaking out or sneaking over to do business and amass wealth or power that would potentially help them in the future.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/06/25 Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.9]]</ref>
====Vagary====
The feral shipwrecked survivors of fairyland; rawness and desperation lead to a kind of efficient anthropophagic madness. These unlucky fae get sent to places where they have nothing of what they need to thrive, so necessity breeds invention and they modify themselves into a form able to survive; they are, terse, tough, tenacious and as always theatrical things that try to last long enough to escape their exile.<ref name=Cap>A Fae that fails to work within the systems and plays of the court may be exiled, sometimes an actual breach of law, sometimes trumped up, rarely straightforward.  Most of the time, the exile is to the realm of man, but other times, the Fae is sent somewhere where they will be *deprived*.  Deprived of stories, deprived of interaction, deprived of glamour.  Such Fae don't have a strict title, because they are relatively few and far between, and those Fae who are equipped to track them don't generally like to dwell on the subject, but they are sometimes called Vagary, Caprices, or, just as often, Exiles of [Insert Fae name and title here].  That last one because they tend to appear in groupings - not as *groups* for they are often alone, but when one Fae noble decides to exile Fae to interstitial spaces, Abyss, or some desolate pocket world, they tend to do so to a number before it starts becoming too trite.<br><br>Much as a human who is stranded without easy food, water, or human contact may gradually devolve into something neanderthal, the Vagary becomes something more raw that most Fae would not like to dwell on or stare at for long.  Starved of what it takes to make glamour, they fabricate makeshift coverings and trappings, or modify themselves into something that can survive and retain glamour in the same way a camel could store water.  Expect to see the overwrought and dramatic, alongside personalities of few words, and a ruthless willingness to go after anyone they might.  They might possibly pause to verify by keen eye if the target might help them get free of exile, but most often they attack and forcibly extract those essential things they need to generate glamour, of which they pull out just enough to subsist, and turn the rest into more dramatic coverings.  Ad infinitum.<br>[...]<br>They take that glamour to make the tools and equipment, but yes.  There's a lot of element of surprise, and being a danger/hazard that attacks from an angle that most don't know how to deal with.  Spend too long in (Pale) the desert world behind the rightward fang of Altais (a tooth that sucks you into a pocket world that acts as a giant antlion trap, gradually moving you toward a desert temple where you'll be sacrificed and regenerated until the next person that the tooth gets who takes your place), and most predators are going to be, like, mindless desert lizards and giant insects.<br><br>The Vagary doesn't want to be sacrificed, so it manages a way to stay clear of the trap at the center and stalks the outer rim.  Someone used to fighting the lizards won't know how to deal with a crude, graceful fighter with some powers of illusion (and whatever adaptations they've made to avoid falling into the antlion trap) - Wildbow on Discord</ref> Almost always alone in their exile, though others might get sent to the same general location, they are not spoken of in polite fae society.
