Fey Witch
These flippant fey are the personification of chaos and luck, as likely to kill an outsider as they would be to befriend or help them. Their hermit like nature often leads to them being mistaken with the cruel hags, a comparison they are quick to correct, one way or another.
The lithe creates are seemingly quiet and humble until something displeases them. They rarely convene together, so tempestuous is their magic that in close confines their supernatural abilities can unseam reality.
Outcasts. Their supernatural ability to manipulate luck comes at a high cost, fey witches are rarely allowed to reside in the Feywild in which they were born. The volatility of their power meaning they have to be kept apart or risk the destruction of the Feywild itself. Once a fey witch shows signs of power maturity there is a feast to honour them before they are cast out from the realm never allowed to return.
Solitude. Unlike the other creatures in Fey society, the witch has no calling or purpose. They live a lonely existence, normally choosing to reside in thick forests where dryads or other fey creatures can be found in an attempt to break the longing for home. Due to their natural abilities it is rare for outsiders to stumble upon them unless they want to be found, adventurers often turn at the last minute or trip over a vine and miss the fleeting glances of these creatures.
If discovered or curious enough they will try to gain information about current events or if possible the Feywild. They keep close company with wisp wolves, whose abilities to cross the realms helps to witches feel closer to home.
