Fairy Warband Quest
Fairy Warband Quest started on October 22 on /tg/. The quest has now exceeded all expectations and it's popularity has soared beyond all previous hopes of the Narrator. Narrator, the Quest Master, took inspiration from the short lived Fairy Meat miniature wargame. The only aspects the two setting share is warlike fairies who carve each other up with glee and happiness. This page is intended to be used as a way to streamline information to new members of the quest quickly without them having to skim through archives.
The Setting Itself
Fairies aren't technologically inclined like mankind is. They don't really understand anything around them. They have no chemistry, or no metal working of any kind. And a good example for their technology prowess is the dark ages, before Charlemagne. But, they have no reason to have technology. Food is in abundance, and only magic can kill fairies so regular metals don't effect them at all. The only natural metal that can harm a fairy is cold iron.(It's actually magnetized metal. It's mistranslated, but fairies have never cared to correct it.)
When a human, or animal's head is cut off, signals from the brain to the heart and lungs cease. Because of this, the heart and lungs stop. The brain, without oxygen and blood flow, dies. That is why a human or animal dies when his head is cut off. A fairy dies when her head is cut off because it kills a human or animal.
Thread Synopsis
Thread One
"Trixy Buttercup 1 inch tall Androgynous Purple Trickery"
That's our information. The thread launches into full swing. We are introduced to our underlings, I mean friends; Bloomstar and Twinkle. A group of random hatchlings frolic next to our home. We crushed them easily enough and we only keep one alive for info. Turns out this last remaining fairy's name is Wibble, and she tells us of a tree that can hatch fairies. The group gets interested at this. We check out this tree alone. We grab a fairy pod but have to hide it. We take off into the forest after they figured out our presence. We come back with the rest of our group and steal the pod. They send a group of their fastest after us. We defeat our pursuers easily, and vanish back into the forest to our home with the pod safely in hand.
Thread Three
After distributing the sparkles from the ambush on Arcanella's forces, Wibble develops Trickster magic, specifically Teleportation; Thing 2 demonstrates curse magic, able to slow the movement of her target, and Trixie gains the Backstab skills of a rogue. The Tree is scouted again and found to be abandoned, with no signs of the enemy. Wary, the Tree is put under surveillance and eventually is attacked by Arcanella under a resource denial policy. Ready for the next assault, Trixie is able to spy on the enemy afterward, finding they have decided to go nomad and harry Trixie's band. Two magical swords are also identified. An ambush is prepared for the next attack on the Tree. When they appear, the two enemy swordsfae are killed and their swords liberated, but shortly thereafter the swords disintegrate. From their sparkles, Trixie gains Magic Sniffer, able to identify magic and its character; Bloomstar gains health Regeneration, and Twinkle gains Backstab as well. Arcanella is pursued and defeated, her sparkles and cape secured. One other magical fairy is identified among her band and spared, Moonbubble, who has the ability to shape magic, as seen with the swords the others wielded.
