The Realm of Faerie Geographic Location in Darker Planes | World Anvil

The Realm of Faerie

The Realm of Faerie was initially spoken into existence by the primordial beings that built the crystal spheres, in order to banish their first children, the Faerie from their worlds and free them up for their second children, mortal kind. Left to their own devices, the faerie named many things, and made them grow big and strong, and beautiful to boot, creating a verdant haven for their kind that soon drew mortal kind to the border between the prime material and what they often called "The Fey Wilds".   This coexistent plane stretches throughout and alongside the material plane, and wherever faerie used to live, they now live in the Realm that echoes that now lost to them place.   In time, the faerie bred with mortal kind to create the many species of fey-folk, including the mighty eladrin, who became the forefathers of elves, one of the more widely spread mortal races.   Geographically, the landscape of the Realm is usually similar to the landscape of the place it echoes, though it may have changed beyond recognition over the eons. Nonetheless, features such as coastal lines and large mountain ranges are often retained in some form.  

The Breath of the Land

Because the many true names of the land and the plants and the animals of the Realm had been spoken aloud during the high times of the original faerie, that land is now more alive than any other on the prime material plane. As it breathes, it breathes its life force into any and all beings that wander its lands. For this reason, the minds of the eternal faerie creatures and their ageless decendents are strangely dulled to the passage of time, and often hundreds of years pass while they lose themselves in the mundanity of revel and hunt and daily life, never thinking twice of potential wasted, as the Realm provides for them. This curse or blessing tends to befall all who visit the Realm sooner or later, if they do not leave quickly, and a lone human traveler who finds himself welcomed to the halls of an eladrin lord, may think he stayed no longer than a day or two, but will perhaps realize, in time, that years have passed him by without him ever noticing.

Geography

The Geography in its most rough features, is usually similar to the geography of the part of the material plane echoed by the Realm.

Fauna & Flora

Plants and Animals alike tend to grow great in size, producing towering trees that pierce the heavens and majetic creatures that look graceful like stags, but grow large like elephants or more.

Natural Resources

All natural resourses that can grow are likely to be more abundant in the Realm.
