lot by the military, prisons, and elementary schools.

Sprite: Small woodland Fey about the size of a human toddler. Wicked sense of humor, easily annoyed, and tough to placate. Fond of pranks, sometimes malicious, mostly annoying.

Tattoo, Blue: located on the inside of a personā€™s right wrist, it is used to identify a magic user. When activated, it projects a sheet denoting a being's magical strength and spell abilities. Also will list any spells that being knows. I only know the one, but Iā€™ve seen some pretty cool and terrifying stuff since Iā€™ve been here. The tattoo itself will fade to grey as a being's personal magic energy depletes.

Tattoo, Red: Located on the left wrist and activated when pressed, a character sheet is projected in the air. It also gives a rough idea of how hurt something is by the amount of black that replaces the red. It flashes whenever a being gets stronger, or ā€˜Levels Up,ā€™ to let them know. Most people guard this information as very personal and not something your enemy should ever see. Elves reportedly can read them without activating them.

Terrestris Caeruleum: ā€˜Land of Blue Skiesā€™ in our language. Dullahan rules this one. This is where we spent the majority of our time in captivity and training. One star for crap food, filthy accommodations, and terrible customer service.

Terrestris Laminis: Roughly translated, The Bladed Trees. The Fiefdom that usually wars with Terrestris Caeruleum for control of the magic. If he hates Dullahan that much, I think we could be friendsā€¦

Troll: Humanoid Fey, roughly the size of an average human man. Faces are scaled; bodies are furred. Fangs, claws, and a tail round out their physique. Very intelligent, strong magic users, and are able to regenerate from any injury, given enough time. Iā€™ve heard rumors of Feral Trolls, but I donā€™t know much about them.

Underhill: The human term for the Fey Realm. A shortened version of the Feyā€™s ā€œUnder the Hill.ā€ Iā€™m told it annoys them when we say it like that, so it stays.

Veil: An elfā€™s innate power to turn invisible. Lasts only a short time and the effect is easily broken. This power can be replicated as a spell.
