Fae-bloods

Fae-Blooded Humans
The most common of all meta, fae-bloods have blood ties to both the fae and humans. In the Mythic Age, all of humanity was fae-blooded. By the beginning of the Age of Man (10,000 years ago), most humans had negliable fae blood and had become what the Spring Court simply defines as mundane or ordinary humans. The fae consider anyone born Underhill between a fae-human couple to be fae, regardless if one parent might have terrestrial roots. The term fae-blooded is used for people who are born terrestrially and who have at least one Fae ancestor within seven generations. DOMO believes that out of the 300 million human citizens of the US in 2012, aproximately 25 million have fae blood, thought only 1 million have a fae parent they know by name and Court affiliation.

Fae-Blooded Abilities
Fae-bloods generally look human, though they might have some form of striking or outstanding feature. Unlike wolf-bloods, they are not more resistant to disease and tissue damage. However, almost all fae-bloods have some form of pyschic gift or a talent for spellcraft, typically mild except those of direct descent from the powerful fae nobles. Even Witch Hunters generally have at least one fae ancestor, which is the source of their own sensitivity to spirits and magic.

Fae-Bloods and the Five Courts
Despite the anamosity most fae feel towards humans, most fae find a companion or group of humans to favor and human-fae relationships became common during the revival. All five courts take human concubines and create fae-blooded children who they may keep as servants. While the Seely are typically more gentle and patient with their mixed race offspring, exceptions are rampant. It it very rare for a Fae to remain in the human world long enough to raise a child; female fae who give birth to a fae-blood often set it up in fosterage. Its much more comon for female humans to have fae-blooded children from temporary liasions.
