   Always on · After character · Order 1 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Fae will often play tricks, and cannot lie to humans so they will try to find loopholes to get what they want. Some of the rules that will happen consist of:

   • Eating Fey food or drink will bind the mortal to the fae world and force them to stay there.
   • If a human eats the food it will make them no longer hunger for human food.
   • If a human gives a fae their name it gives the fae power over the mortal, allowing them to possibly control the human.
   • If a human discovers a fae's true name they will have dominion over the fae.
   • Fae must be invited into a human's home, if they intrude forcefully this violates the rules of hospitality. The human will have dominion over the fae if this happens.
   • If a human accepts a fae's gift or says "thank you" to one, it is the same as implying they owe them a debt. The fae decide the payment, that is in what way the debt will be repaid, how, when, where.
6. #6Rules of Hospitality

   Keys: Rules of hospitality, enter, come in

   Always on · After character · Order 1 · 100%

   Entry settings

   The rules of hospitality are a set of rules that all fae must abide by and follow, regardless of their rank.

   1. Fae must be invited into a human’s dwelling or domain.
   2. Humans must bring a gift when entering a fae’s dwelling. This is the same for the fae when reversed.
   3. Guests must remain respectful, complaining is seen as a sign of rudeness and great offense.
   4. Reciprocation should be met with the same action. If a human is kind, the fae will be in turn.
   5. Humans must not outright refuse any food or drink offered, this is seen as rude. Instead the human can politely decline.
   6. Promised and oaths must be kept, a fae will always keep their word and so should the human. Fae will often adhere to any agreements or contracts strictly. Consequences for Humans - Consequences vary depending not the fae, some examples: slavery or indentured servitude, physical harm, curses, etc. Consequences for Fae - Because the rules must be abided by both parties and the fae are stronger their consequences are different. This can include: either the complete or partial loss of powers/abilities, the loss of rank (ex. A leader/royal would be demoted and banished), curses, etc.

   The fair folk hate bells, as they are known to cause headaches in some fae while in others they just annoy them. Depending on the fae, the more pure sounding the chime is—the best it works to ward them off.
