Fantasy Fan |
These may be made of bamboo, and when waved magically make a person think he is cooler than he is. Fans have an identity of their own; they gather periodically at fan conventions to shoot the breeze and blow hot air and decide who is the secret master of fandom. One is stored in the Castle Roogna arsenal. |
|
Faun |
Counterpart to Nymphs. They have little horns, shaggy legs and goat�s feet, and like to play pipes, chase Nymphs, laugh, eat and sleep, in approximately that order. There are several varieties: Dryfauns associated with trees, Naifauns associated with water (with flattened flipper-hooves and scales), and Orefauns associated with the mountains (with greenish hair and dark-brown fur). All are harmless, fun-loving creatures who have no memory of the past or concern for the future. |
|
Fee |
Stunningly beautiful humans, who are all marred by a single animal feature. Their leader is Fulsome Fee, a handsome young man with duck feet. They seek to breed with outsiders of any race, whether willing or not, and insist they mate for life. It is best for busy travelers to avoid the Fee. |

Three dog-faced old women, creatures of retribution. Their whips cause terrible agony, and their curses are devastating. They are: Alecto, of the sorrows; Megaera, of suffering; and Tisiphone, of guilt. They know the secret guilts of anyone they encounter, whether human or animal. |
