Spidersilk armor worn under other armor is impractical because of the necessity of it being loose and free to move about. Cost of spidersilk is the same as for plate armor.

Commentary & Description
Members of this humanoid race must be treated as one would a Heroic Persona. That is, each is an individual. Here are generalities which apply:

Fay in small groups dwell in palaces and sylvan manors in the occidental realms of exterior Phaeree. A typical Fay is about 5 feet tall and very slender. They have dragonfly-like wings, so in addition to movement at human standard rate they can also fly. They are the most beautiful and powerful of all the fair folk of the Seelie Court, having an average Attractiveness of 18. Each Fay has 7-14 Joss Factors
(6+1D8).

Their Physical Speeds enable them to avoid much. Average clothing of the Fay, stuff spun of Phaeree spiders' silk, conveys Average Armor protection equal to the amount of clothing they wear, i.e. Half to Full. Castings can provide magickal defenses, and their warriors have special armor and arms forged by their weapon smiths. Such are made from alloyed non-ferrous metals, which is then enchanted by Heka-forgers.

Like most Phaeree races, Fay are Susceptible to ferrous metals, such doing double normal damage if insinuated or brought into physical contact. They have Allergy of Contact sort, the touch of ferrous metal inflicting 1 point of Physical Damage each BT it continues, and if 100 Pounds of this sort of metal is within 10 Feet the same occurs after 1 AT of such exposure.

A typical adult Fay has 1D3 Heka-engendered powers of Minor sort, and 1 of Moderate or Major kind. Heka available for Castings is equal to the total of all three TRAITS, plus double Full Practitioner human norm for K/S Areas.

The Fay race presides over the Great Court of Occidental Seelie at Troynovant, the capital of Cleopolis. They are the mortal enemies of the Unseelie race of the Slaugh.
