Danger

What a cute spirit, you might think. And yes, it is cute, but it is also one of the most dangerous that has ever been documented. This little creature is, of all things, a Deadly Woundlock spirit. Deadly Woundlock is a plant found in very rare places, usually in the shadowy bases of forest cliffs. …

A Fair Trade

If ever you find yourself harassed by bees and wasps and flies when out on a picnic, remember this advice – offer the grass fae a treat and they’ll keep the bugs in order. Fae often have some control over the insects around them, and grass fae have been known to send larger bugs out …

Gilded

There’s a strange place far to the north, where a great field spreads for miles and miles. It is empty, except for a few kinds of grass and flowers, and the gold-rippled rocks that rise from the meadows at random, seemingly from nowhere. Very little lives on those plains, only small birds and rabbits and …

Baby Locks

It’s not uncommon for young dragons to have fur rather than spines. When a half dozen or more soft-scaled babies are flopped all over each other in a nest, it makes sense to not be too spiky. As they age the fur will shed to make way for scales and spines, though some species do …

Pets

It’s strange how some things can be so alike but so different. Although they are technically their own species, many people consider gryphons loosely to be birds, and certainly they seem more bird-like than mammalian. Gryphons also seem to enjoy the company of smaller birds, especially the ones that travel in groups, and have even …

Under Moonlight

In the deepest hours of the night when most are asleep, the towns and cities become a bright display of light and mystery. Tiny fae live all over this world, in attics and gardens and basements and chimneys, and they enjoy the quiet moments to come out and dance in the moonlight. Most of the …

Sour Hour

No matter how mild-mannered a young dragon typically is, they’re prone to moody swings as they grow and it’s not unusual for a teenage dragon to suddenly become rather grumpy. They can’t help the sudden sour mood. Of course, bad behaviour should be corrected, but no amount of telling them to “cheer up” will change …

Different Approach

Gryphons are very graceful fliers, often outpacing and outmanoeuvring dragons. They ride the wind like an autumn leaf, drifting in the lightest breeze. But with flight being so easy and efficient, gryphons often end up seeking excitement in other places, and are one of the few creatures to actively seek out sport. Climbing is quite …

Chunky

Chunky is a delight, isn’t he? A scrubby little dog with a wide grin is enough to brighten even the stoniest of hearts. Chunky is optimistic to the point of obliviousness, and his infectious mood spreads to others regardless of how down they might be feeling. He’s not just a happy face, however. Chunky has …

Overhead

Every autumn, flocks of dragons pass over the moors as they travel to warmer climates. Often Rover can be seen watching them pass, staring silently with his head tilted to the sky. Is he envious? Does he wonder where they go? He makes no attempt to leave the moor. He could, easily. He could walk …
