Night Fae Storyline

The order of the Night Fae was hit most from the soul-drought, since the mystic Night Fae depend on the anima from those deeply connected to nature to keep their land from withering away and slumbering spirits from getting lost forever.

Night Fae Appearance

The realm of the Night Fae is full of starry lush groves and glowing creatures of nature. This matches well with the thick wooden plate of the Night Fae armor, highlighted by the purple glow and large embedded jewels resembling the starry sky. This order’s back item is a set of two similarly colored moths resting on their hero’s shoulder blades.
