Magical Bestiary | Tuesday, period 2
The Danger Shop was back to being a classroom this week, so anyone hoping for another week of meeting beasties was probably out of luck.
"We spoke earlier this semester in general terms about making deals with magical creatures," Bob started, "and I mentioned the fair folk. Fairies, sidhe, they go by any number of names in any number of worlds. And all of these terms encompass a wide and varied range of beings. They may look more or less human, or resemble other animals, or look nothing like either. They may be malicious or comparatively helpful. However, there are a few things they have in common."
He wrote them in the air. "Cold iron burns them, running water disrupts their magic and may prevent some of them from travelling over it. Their word is binding, although please remember my earlier cautions on taking that word at face value."
He went over several of the more usually encountered types of fairy.
"So, you've got one after you and several others that you may be able to get to assist you, or that might turn on you. What's your plan?"
