Jiang’s exposure to the Feywild’s magic has changed him.

He grew up in the Feywild after disappearing from his home on the prime material plane as a child. He stumbled through a fey crossing by chance during a twilight stroll in the woods. Gradually, he fell under the Feywild’s spell and learned a little about the nature of the mercurial tricksters that dwell there.

When he finally returned home to the prime material plane, he did not come back unchanged. He is haunted by the fact that the Feywild—a mirror world hidden behind a mere twist of perception—is only a hair’s breadth away. Although his memories of the Feywild grow fainter with each passing day, his heart swells with a mixture of fear and joy at the prospect of one day venturing back to the Plane of Faerie—his home away from home.

Equipment: Two daggers, a pan flute, a set of traveler’s clothes, a pouch containing 8 gp, and three Feywild Trinkets:

1. Set of false wooden teeth
2. Piece of parchment bearing a child’s drawing of an oni
3. Tiny wooden stool (sized for a pixie or sprite) that gives splinters to those who hold it

Fey Mark

Jiang was transformed in some small way by his stay in the Feywild and gained a fey mark:

• Jiang’s skin sparkles in moonlight.

Feywild Visitor

Whenever he’s sound asleep during a long rest, a spirit of the Feywild in the form of a Unicorn might pay him a visit. No harm ever comes to Jiang as a result of such visits, which can last for minutes or hours, and he remembers each visit when he wake up. Conversations that occur with the visitor often contain any number of things, from messages and insights to nonsense and red herrings. Such conversations are always conducted in a language Jiang can understands.

Feature: Feywild Connection

Jiang’s mannerisms and knowledge of fey customs are recognized by natives of the Feywild, who see him as one of their own. Because of this, friendly Fey creatures are inclined to come to Jiang’s aid if he is lost or needs help in the Feywild.

Commoners include peasants, serfs, slaves, servants, pilgrims, merchants, artisans, and hermits.

In the reckonings of most worlds, humans are the youngest of the common races, late to arrive on the world scene and short-lived in comparison to dwarves, elves, and dragons. Perhaps it is because of their shorter lives that they strive to achieve as much as they can in the years they are given.
