F
Charismatic power, magical influence over mundane objects, his jacket and bike are totems of power, ageless, love of mischief, unexplained origins, only follows his own rules, unnatural luck, ethereal confidence.
Fonzie is fae.
…except he’s the worst attorney…
If I ever write a fantasy book, I will use phae or or phay or phairy just to mess with people.
I vote for phairy.
You can use fhairy, like fugly.
Very on brand for faeioys tbh
It does sometimes feel a bit pretentious. Like, no no, these pocket-sized humans with wings and
fairysparkle dust, they’re not fairies. They’re actually farfalles, because they’ve got a heavy Italian accent, you see.I guess, when everyone does it, then it isn’t actually pretentious anymore, but yeah, still a bit close for comfort…
F followed by whatever vowels, huh? Is this a fairy? -> furry
In parts of western Pennsylvania and Maryland, yup.
Vowels. Plural. You only used one. Could’ve at least gone for “furries” xD
I can imagine furry being a subclass of the fairy taxonomy.
They do have different uses, as well as “flavours”.
E.g. if you end up in fairyland, you’d likely expect something more child friendly and whimsical. If you end up in the land of the fey, that’s a far scarier prospect.
It’s also akin to having different words for dwarf, elf, orc, and human. They are all big, with 2 legs, 2 arms and a head on top.
Any spelling is fair.
FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Faeiou(y)
Fyodor Karamazov?
Every time I hear about this guy, I think about the portrayal of him in If the Emperor had a Text-to-Speech Device.
I need to rewatch that now.
i concur, tts is the only canon that matters too so i shall rewatch as well
Lands of Evershade: we have Faylings and Alfs
Faoueuaeouyeauoeauoeaă
That’s an F-U in my book
Those spellings have been around since the 13th century, so it’d be kinda weird to standardize them now.
Other words we can’t decide on: litre/liter, neighbour/neighbour and aluminium/aluminum
You spelled it “neighbour” twice
Gray/grey
Ferry.
Could be quirky, ensouled commuter boats (think the boat from Windwaker), could be that that they are Navi-like sprites or winged humanoids… but they always lead you somewhere, help you cross a threshold of some kind.
Why not?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liveship_Traders 10/10 series imo
Well dang, I’d never heard of that.
Thanks! I’ll try to give those a read some time =D
I’d recommend starting with the assassin’s apprentice series first, but it’s not necessary.
