Personal history
Minaris and the other Fey are enigmatic creatures from the time of Umeran, and the Forest Lords were his servants. The Fey are in a sense the Angels of Umeran and the wild places, or the Demons of the Abyss. They are Celestial Outsiders, who exist on the Inner Plane of the Wilds. Archfey like Minaris rest on the scales of power similarly to the Dukes of Hell, or Demon Lords. Minaris is perhaps one of the oldest of the living Fey, and has often represented subtle yet chaotic change in the Material and the Wilds. Minaris retreats into the midnight lands, taking only a sporadic interest in the squabbles of the other Fey and in any events on the Material. The Moth King's whims rarely predictable, and even more difficult to understand what if any influence the Fey truly has. Druids and Warlocks who serve Minaris often view the Moth King as a symbol of change, whether it be subtle influencing the land or devastating a hamlet to clear way for the forests return. One thing all the followers of Minaris partake in however, is creating strange effigies of the Moth King often from sticks spider webs and things of a similar nature. The sign of the Moth King has become an omen of dire natural disasters to come.
