Subject and contents
The table of contents is available online at the Atlas Games Web site.
The Nature of Faerie
This book describes the Faerie Realm as drawing power from human belief and imagination.[1] Through numerous examples, it makes clear how faeries need human dreams and emotions to sustain them. This is broadly consistent with past editions' supplements about the Faerie Realm.
An important aspect of faeries, introduced in this book, is the idea of cognizance and incognizance: the extent to which the faerie is aware of its need for mankind, and if so, how it chooses to satisfy that need.
The Faerie Realm
There are three worlds within the Realm of Faerie: Arcadia,[2] the land of inspiration where new stories are born; Elysium, the land of legend where the greatest stories are retold[3]; and Eudokia, the land of the "forking path" where travelers face their personal dilemmas[4].
Faerie Bestiary
This book contains Fifth Edtion statistics for a wide variety of faeries. Each of them is listed in the table of contents; see also Project: Redcap's Creature Index.
